Every now and then I love checking out everyone’s killer instinct vids. The game was a huge part of my life as a kid and even more so as an adult. I was a lucky guy because I ended up on the reboot soundtrack back in 2015 on the Herald of Gargos track. Never in my wildest dreams would I have ever thought I’d be able to be a part of killer instinct history.

Love this! Orchid is so perky and playful and has a super cute voice. That was great how Eyedol rallied at the end of the fight. I like the sounds he makes when he gets hit and the ones he makes when he does his foot stomp health regenerate. Every thing about this game is very satisfying. I want to find an arcade that has this now and go play it for hours

Killer Instinct is the game series where the concept of the "combo" reached its highest point. Killer Instinct is my favorite fighting game series. Playing Killer Instinct on the Xbox One on Xbox Live and seeing how far this series has come is truly amazing!

[@pedrogabriel3158]

no it isnt, many of capcom games like the alpha series and the versus games had a big emphasis on custom combos and the games where way more fluid and fast paced than killer instinct, games like guilty gear xx and anime fighters that came after just go crazy on combo territory with combos easily going into the 50 and 100 hits, killer instinct sure was great and miles better than some of its competitors (like mortal kombat that sucks) but its not the best when it comes to combos

I remember this game in the arcades. It was turned WAY up so you could hear the second you walked in - people were lined up 10 deep waiting their turn to take on the winner. For my local arcade (at least when I went), this game was THE big daddy - with NBA Jam in second. When you heard the bass pounding for Orchid's music, it was absolutely mesmerizing.

[@master2873]

Even if the volume wasn't turned up quite a bit, as certain operators would turn it down due to complaints, it was designed to be at max volume when someone, or the CPU gets an Ultra Combo.

There something about Killer Instinct that no other fighting game can't match , the visuals, the music, the characters, just effing everything. Killer Instinct 2 was truly special as well.

Silicon graphics should revisit this technique for the next new consoles and give us the ultimate intended visual treat.
