Killer Instinct Dynamic Music

Our friend @maximilian_ show us the great music of Killer Instinct and how it reacts to fight moments

ceedubya94668d ago

Really hope this game gets a soundtrack release

Black-Helghast4668d ago (Edited 4668d ago )

Why does the announcer sound so idk.. like angry? I'm not gonna go and say "In the original KI this and that were better" (Which is obviously true) but I really dislike the announcer. When he yelled INSANE! I was like dude no, shut up. I just don't like the announcer on the new KI.

PS: Beware, the georgeenoob comment is coming..

Thomper4668d ago

What else do you think was better in the original KI?

I have a nostalgic love for it, but it wasn't actually very good really....

This is looking to be a much tighter game IMO

SuperLupe4668d ago (Edited 4668d ago )

I cant wait to play the game for the announcer alone ^^ Especially in local multiplayer. Nothing sweeter than ultra combo-ing my brother or cousin and watch him sit there and take in a huge and angry "ULTRAAAAAAAA COMBOOOOOOOOOO !!!!!!" haha :D

CalamityCB4668d ago

Even something as small as this shows you Double Helix isn't pissing around.

Thomper4668d ago

:0)

I can't wait another 4 months!!!!!!

Neoninja4668d ago

Don't worry, I am creating a time machine that will no doubt warp us 4 months into the future!

Double Helix has put in some series work with this.

SuperLupe4668d ago

Yeah, not only do they seem to be outdoing themselves but they seem very humble too and listen to a lot of feedback from fans. They may have made crap games in the past but they seem like a fantastic team.

yeah they were such good and fun games but they never really reached the mainstream audience. Killer Instinct was widely known and respected.

Cacabunga377d ago

Killer instinct is great, especially on snes but it’s not the most underrated fighter.. for me it’s Power Stone. So much potential in this series

Jawsh666377d ago

Bloody Roar was a game that had a sick concept but wasn’t made the best. I’d say Killer Instinct was the opposite of that, it was well made but the roster of characters were so similar to every other fighting game in that era that it ended up feeling like more of the same. I could be wrong that’s just how I remember it at the time and I played a ton of KI on SNES because it was one of the first games I owned.

PRIMORDUS377d ago

I loved this game in the arcade, my main was Jago, Ultra Combo!!! https://www.youtube.com/wat...

DivineHand125376d ago

That combo was way overkill 😂

PRIMORDUS376d ago

I know haha, I loved Jago.

Bathyj377d ago

You're kidding?
It enjoyed probably more success than it deserved.
Unlike Tobal 2

MeteorPanda376d ago

Tobal 2 was awesome. Sold really well cause art similarity to dragon ball

jjb1981377d ago

I remember trying my hardest to learn that "Ultra... Ultra.... Ultra...." finish. Such a great fighting game.

Popsicle376d ago (Edited 376d ago )

I can tell you definitely got some SNES time in. The slight differences in the ports due to hardware constraints were interesting. For example, the arcade version was Ultraaaa Coooommboooooooo! versus Ultra….Ultra….Ultra on the SNES.

Though SNES overachieved as a port for as demanding as a game KI was.The arcade version was one of the first cabinets with a dedicated hard drive and the SNES version was 32 megabyte cartridge which was huge for that system at the time.

jjb1981375d ago

Yeah, for sure. My local childhood arcade was always packed and it was hard to get a game in but once the SNES version came out, I was hooked. I can still feel the click of the power button.

Barlos885d ago

I'll have to get this! Been a big fan of KI since the very first one.

Petebloodyonion885d ago (Edited 885d ago )

I love KI (still play the old arcade version) but feel like the Xbox version is like a big intimidating chessboard with no easy way to instruct you to play chess.
The game is so deep in terms of little things to do that it makes Smash Bros melee look like a casual experience.
Honestly, doing a combo Breaker is punish/reward by itself but hey you can add a counterbreaker.
Here's what you also need to know

There isn't going to be any chance of this being played at tournaments unless it appears on all platforms like all fighting games.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH889d ago

SF5 didn’t appear on all consoles and was still played at Tournaments. I’ve seen KI tournaments recently so I don’t think your opinion is accurate.
