Rumor: Killer Instinct 3 coming to 360

From jeux-france.com: "new episode of the series Killer Instinct (in the past in arcade, Super Nintendo and on Nintendo 64), this time on Xbox 360. The dires come directly from American magazine EGM: Killer Instinct 3D: Death, Destruction and Doom. Reality or joke of the developers? Confirmation will still have to be awaited."

now i need a 360.....looks like i am going to by the £150 if this is confirmed,...i only got a ps3 but i cannot afford another console rite now,....killer instinct is my best beat em up game follwed by street fighter,.....this game is going to be sick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!

Jamie Foxx5842d ago (Edited 5842d ago )

killer instinct is a great beat'em up it doesnt need 3D, just spruce up the graphics and combat and your onto a winner,too many GREAT fighting games have been ruined by going 3D

Gam715842d ago

You are absolutely right jamie.

Fighting games don't seem to favour the transition to 3d as well as platformers.

gaffyh5842d ago

It probably is true, I mean Rare make the game. But Tekken is the greatest fighting game, nothing else even compares, and the only people that don't like it are the ones that are crap at it.

Tekken is very fluid, and a very fair fighting game (more than other games). I remember when I played Killer Instinct on N64, I thought it was really really crap.

solidt125842d ago

This just a rumor, and I am sure it will come to the PS3 also if it is true.

HighDefinition5842d ago

cause Banjo was ALOT different, hopefully KI3 isn`t.

Daver5842d ago (Edited 5842d ago )

@1.5 M$ bought Rare so they wont release the game on ps3...

If its true and it looks fun i think i might have to buy an xbox..
Killer instinct is the best fighting game ever made!

Anyway it is just a rumour for now

unbiased5842d ago

They were the first to confirm Bioshock PS3. and now this. I'm really starting to have faith in there rumors.

Bloodwar5842d ago (Edited 5842d ago )

so for those who hope the game isn't in three dimensions, we don't have an idea yet.. it may not be in 3 dimensions and if it doesnt have 3 dimensions, I'm still going to buy it. =)

And I do wonder, there are quite a few of you who do say that you would buy this a 360 for this game. I ask then, is it possible that this is the system seller for the Xbox 360? I wonder. Anyways, yes, this is still a rumor atm, but damn I hope its true.

Fallen_Angel5842d ago

Rare been dropping hints about this for a long time now so I think its a given that the game is in the works. I just dont get why they dont release 1 or 2 on XBLA

Dark_Vendetta5842d ago

Well the pic of Banjo showed pretty obvious that KI3 is coming.
@1.10: Maby they have some legal problems because of the platform or whatever

cmrbe5842d ago

This game is the S*it back in SNES days. Better than MK and SF imo. If it there was a release on PS1 i would have prefered it to Tekken even. KI have the best fighters imo. Cinder is the man. Spinal is kick ass as well.

If you think this is exciting I know somebody that gets insider info from MSFT. The new Perfect Dark Zero game is going to be a monster(revolutionary multiplayer). He tests MSFT's games and everything he's told me about GoW2 has been on the money.

Ruff/rough translation

"Rumour of the moment: l' nearest arrival d' a new episode of the series Killer Instinct (in the past in arcade and on Super Born/Nintendo 64), this time on Xbox 360. The dires come directly from American magazine EGM with l' next d' announces; Killer Instinct 3D: Death, Destruction and Doom. Reality or joke of the developers? Confirmation will still have to be awaited… "

Its obvious its comming its been hinted at so many times by Rare. Orchid! Killer combo FTW.

PR0NE5842d ago (Edited 5842d ago )

no, no, scr*w you, it's GeoW2 not GoW2 as in God of War 2

update: and scr*w the ones who disagree

Defectiv3_Detectiv35842d ago

As w/ any Rare game I shall remain skeptical. They haven't produced a AAA game since the N64 Banjo. I just hope they don't screw this up cuz I always thought this game was bad ass.

NO_PUDding5842d ago

Yer, wheneveer anyone says GoW I think God of War.

GeoW is Gears....

Pain5842d ago (Edited 5842d ago )

I Have a Friend how is Close with One of the Greek GODs and he tells me that the Chick i'll Marry is HOT!!!

But really dream on . Any Rare game from M$ is NOT a True RARE Game since Most of RARE's Devs (the Good ones) left to work with Free Rad when M$ bought Rare....

Thats Why Perfect Dark 360 SUCKED!!!!!!! And Any RARE Game After.

"He tests MSFT's games and everything he's told me about GoW2 has been on the money. "
will id hope he was right if he works there.....but whats to expect from it more Mediocre? not hard.

and grr its Not GoW thats God of War. Gears is Gears never herd Geow..sounds like a Ewoke name

tatotiburon5842d ago

lol Pain

Free radical, the goog ones? hahahaha the people who maded HAZE?? the biggest Flop of the year?

"The new Perfect Dark Zero game is going to be a monster(revolutionary multiplayer)." Really now Perfect Dark? Are you xbots really sinking that low?

Mc Fadge5842d ago

I think all rumours should have "Rumour:" in their title, rather than a small piece of text at the bottom of the article that is hard to see. Please add it to the title? <3

Anyways, never played the originals but apparently it's awesome? Good news for 360 owners if true, enjoy!

Mc Fadge5842d ago (Edited 5842d ago )

You're right, this is horrible news for the 360 ^_______^

GutZ315842d ago

Why was this story approved?
Its even in the rules that you cant put "!!!" in a story title, even if the original came with it.

jack325842d ago (Edited 5842d ago )

i never played it

My uncle did and i watced him, fighting some skeleton on a boat. Thats ALL i remember

It just seemed like any other fighting game to me!!!! am i right?

highdro5842d ago

its more than just another fighting game, ...u do some sick as combo and that skelton gy ur uncle is fighting is called spinal, ..he can transformes into who ever he is fighting,..u get combo breakers,..awsmo combo..e.t.c, i cant explain it but it is jus a mash up game were u fight really fast,.. play it ur self and u will see y i love it so much,..if u have some change go and by a n64 and get ki gold.

jack325842d ago

Yeh i checked it now
http://www.youtube.com/watc...

but its not tactical like Tekken. It wont be fair. People will just learn how to do combos and finish anyone.

This game will probably not be good online

ThaGeNeCySt5842d ago

what do you mean learn how to do combo's and just finish anyone? There are combo breakers

Skizelli5842d ago

It is tactical. Like the above poster said, there are combo breakers. Combo breakers also allow shadow combos. Rather than watching a video, perhaps everyone should research the gameplay mechanics before judging.

power of Green 5842d ago (Edited 5842d ago )

LOL a Dissagree... This rumor doesn't even matter we know its coming Rare is an inhouse company there's sure to be hits in development.

Its not like Rare hasn't put out teasers about KI3.

LOL at the PS3 fanboys trying to block the news then have the nerve to troll in here claiming they never really heard of it or they're not intrested and its just like another fighting game.

Old and current Nintendo fans know exactly what this series is about hence the 360 fans being excited being mostly Nintendo converts.

LenHart5842d ago

as if ps3 owners want this garbage game

this comes from RARE --a garbage developer who makes garbage games like BANJO KAJOOIE, PDZ , VIVA SUCKATA

stupid old man

he thinks we want an x360 game???

GiantEnemyCrab5842d ago

Ever since the Christmas Card teaser with KI stocking in the background I've had a feeling this game is coming.

Can't wait, one of the best fighters ever made!

There are different games. Some have gamplay at it highest priority, some have the story, some have the replay value and choices... There are a lot of different game experiences.

It is laughable that just now graphics does not have anything to do with that experiene. We have had many games of that type over time. This is just the one that have come closest to feel like playing an actual movie. Just look the the Digital foundry walkthrough it is a masterpiece in that perspective and hence wrth trying. But yes do not do it for the gameplay - but that was never the goal of this experience.

GamerRN22h ago

It's because it's on Xbox. When Xbox has amazing graphics, they don't matter. When PlayStation does, it's a game changer!

Lightning7721h ago

Pretty much my thoughts. They were technical marvel's on PS and still are. The moment Xbox puts out a graphically intense game is doesn't matter suddenly.

4 years ago this month would the UE5 tech demo debut with the girl flying (tech demo said it was only possible on PS5 because of the SSD. Glad to finally see it in its glory.

fr0sty20h ago

FFS, gaming journalism has really gone downhill. At least hire people with a basic grasp of grammar... "Me neither" means the exact opposite of what the "author" is trying to say. That's like saying "I could care less"... lol.

S2Killinit20h ago

Maybe because the gameplay being dull allowed it to have the amazing graphics and people are not as impressed by graphics alone anymore? I mean there is a lot of sites saying the story and the gameplay are lackluster. So what are we supposed to enjoy then? Cgi graphics are beautiful but since they arent interactive, they dont impress me as much as they used to. Thats an extreme example, but you get my drift.

Terry_B15h ago

When Playstation (Sony) does it..its usually a great game and not a cinematic experience..or at least something new at the time..like Until Dawn back in 2015.

@gamer:” It's because it's on Xbox. When Xbox has amazing graphics, they don't matter. When PlayStation does, it's a game changer!”

The game looks as good as any other PlayStation game in my eyes why can’t you and the other hardcore Xbox be happy about it and drag PlayStation into every conversation and force PlayStation hardcore to look into the game and find flaw that most games have in one way or another.
@light: “ 4 years ago this month would the UE5 tech demo debut with the girl flying (tech demo said it was only possible on PS5 because of the SSD. ”
Yes at that time it was only possible on PlayStation SSD how ignorant of you to think that after 4 years the technology wouldn’t evolved and move to a industry standard 🤦🏿I wish your mentality wasn’t so naive and narrow to post stuff like that 😩 in a year or 2 a new game will come out that might look better, it’s the nature of the industry.

Now that the distraction is gone I feel that is a good thing that the graphics in games are starting to hit the rooftop and hopefully the developers will put more thoughts into story and gameplay mechanics than just the next shiny oily skin of old.

Reaper22_13h ago

So true. Not surprised by all the negativity. It's a really good game and looks better than any game I've ever seen. GOTY nominee for sure. Like I said before, sony screwed up big time by not purchasing Ninja Theory.

Asplundh7h ago

Pretty much. It's like how the Switch and Steam controller using haptic feedback in their controllers wasn't a big deal but then Sony did it and it was then a "game changer".

fr0sty7h ago

The game runs at as low as 21fps... That isn't much to brag about no matter how good it looks.

MajorLazer12h ago(Edited 12h ago)

We've had graphical gamechangers before, such as Crysis but those games still had gameplay to compliment it. Hellblade pretty much has none, and only achieved such graphics through being incredibly linear and having very small, closed off environments where very little is happening.

Vx_8h ago(Edited 8h ago)

GFX does not mean anything if the game is boring. It is simple like that and these major companies need to understand this simple concept.

Games are like your lady, she may be beautiful to look at for a while but then it gets boring if her character isn't interesting and fun to be with.

Yeah but graphics don't matter, remember?

anast6h ago

@RN

I've been pretty consistent in saying that we need both.

VincentVanBro23h ago

I agree and I actually think Forbidden West looks better than Hellblade 2. I easily prefer looking at it at least.

Sonic18818h ago

It does look better in my opinion as well. I don't know why it looks better but there's something about the Decima engine or that guerrilla games is using tricks that we don't know of

Can you fly a mount under water in Hellblade 2? I think not! One of the best moments this Gen

It's an outstanding game and so was The Old Blood. Also a lost era of gaming. Interesting, I received a physical copy of The Old Blood 9 years ago today from Poland. It was digital only in North America initially upon release so I had to import.
