There has been some official ‘rumors’ regarding Killer Instinct 3.
Well I hope it’s true. I really loved the first KI, and admittedly, most of my GGs were played on the SNES on my friend’s huge ass TV. I was too much of a poor kid to play it lots at the arcade when it was still hot.
Anyone have some more official info on it, rather then this buzz 22nd-hand info?
I think KI is my overall favourite fighting game. There’s so much about it I love. What I miss the most is playing it against high-level competition.
i highly doubt a ki3. ki2 was a huge bomb, plus it didnt help with the fact that it was terrible. KI 1, as fond of memories i may have witth it, is a really badly executed game, still .fun, but poor execution.
plus whether or not rare or nintendo holds the license to the IP is still unknown. and rare being owned by microsoft and nintendo being a competitor… well you know how that goes, i assume.
Ki was one of the most fun fighting games. But neither of the two was really made for high level competitive play. Even compared to 3d games now, KI looks good.
But a Killer Instinct 3 at this point in the game? They must’ve been taking notes on what works and what doesn’t in other fighting games. Hopefully they’ll know that trying to launch against SFIV is a BAD idea. :shake:
Shouldn’t need to point this out but hey: IF THEY MAKE IT.
Hmmm, yeah, now wouldn’t be the time to think about making another one with SF4 in the works.
But, I truly would love to play another KI. I would think that after the first two, they may be able to get it right. Yet, like Sabre said, the whole Rare and Nintendo issue :\
I think a fixed up, modern KI1 would get some notice though. Keep the feel of that game, and the production values (audio and visuals were exceptional at the time)
They don’t have KI on XBox Live Arcade [or however that thing works. I’m not too familiar with it]? They could just opt for the quick fix and go with it.
Rare did say in an interview when they were still making PDZ that there was indeed a new KI game in mind. They said however they had some other properties to work on first, which with Rare means you might see KI by 2074.
What’s the difference between a rumor and an official rumor?
But yeah a third KI could be fun lol. Doubt I’d take it seriously less they address some of the stuff Lake mentioned. But it would still probably be fun.
last time I checked KI is a fighting game. There are normals in KI I dont know what your talking about, if you want a game with nothing but pokes go play 3rd strike. KI doesnt need to be like other fighting games KI is its own game
