First game I am playing....
This topic is locked from further discussion.
Killer Instinct is the one game on X1 That I wish was on PS4. The second I heard Microsoft bought Rare, I knew this game would happen and that I would be missing out on it.
Shame that I won't get it on PS4 as I absolutely loved the series back in the day, but no one game is worth $560. Not even if X1 got Shenmue 3.
Missing out on a game in a series that always had terrible gameplay. Nobody should be missing sleep over that.
Anyone getting xbox one at launch is missing the obvious 100-150$ price drop coming a few months after launch though
I can always play the game after buying the system after a huge price drop
Plus it is not a game i care that much about, if it was an amazing RPG, i might have payed the 500 euro
I highly doubt they will drop the price on a brand new system, even after a year of being on the market. I can't realistically see that happening.
that's like the PS4 dropping to 350$. Which sony would probably do to undercut a Xboxone price drop..
Sony actually did a price cut on the PS3 like 7-8 months after launch. lol!! Then they did another price cut less then a year after that, before finally annoucing a PS3 Slim. I doubt Microsoft will announce a price cut within the first year. It'll most likely happen in 2015.
Game looks like crap. Waiting for some good next-gen fighters to be announced...
No it doesn't. The ice effects are pretty amazing. This game is going to be a lot of fun. Stop hating.
Don't kid yourself. The fighting looks like absolute shit and that is kind of a big deal considering it's a fighting game...
In order to miss out on something, you have to have an interest in it in the first place. I have no interest in KI.
I don't like fighting games. It does suck that I'll be missing out on Dead Rising 3 and Forza 5, but I'll live...
Not that big into fighting games.
I like Mortal Kombat, Soul Calibur and Virtua Fighter. That's about it.
looked cool but its in 720p and is a fighter... i don't miss on fighting games especially when they look that simple and run in 720p on a $500 machine
Game looks great. One of the only reasons I'm still holding onto my pre-order.
That being said, I really don't play fighters on a pad, and until the mod PCB's come out to enable my existing sticks to work with the One, I'm not interested in fighting games on the box. I'm not buying a new $200 stick when there's nothing wrong with my existing sticks.
I can't justify spending $500 to play a genre I don't terribly like aside from a very small number of standout titles. Especially when it's in 720p.
Looks like a fun couch fighter but nothing I would ever take seriously. With that being said, I am happy with going the Ps4 route.
Huge ORIGINAL ARCADE 90's K.I. Fan, but I'm not HYPEd at all for this new version. Long list of reasons why on the gameplay front, which I attribute to poor development choices. I was a master of the original Killer Instinct in the Arcades winning money in tourneys, long before it was ported to SNES. I have my SNES copy of course, with case and KI music CD as well.
I remain optimistic though once I get my Xbone, but there are a lot of reasons not to be excited about what could potentially be a brand nostalgia exploitation. I hope my opinion changes when the final build of KI is released.
It looks alright but not £450.00 alright.
If we ever get a Kinectless 720 for £250.00 i might take a look.
@SonofK: I've played it myself, several times in fact. I KNOW fighting games, i've been around the FGC before streaming was even a thing. I didn't say the game was going to be bad, just not great, nor would it compete with the likes of the SF4 series.
For a $20 download-only day-1 game for a console launch, its fine. It has a good training mode and some online play, but thats about it as far as content is concerned. Too few characters, a few design inconsistencies in their mechanics, and no real good 'readable' moves for an audience makes this a quick affair. I'm sure it'll have a tiny community that swear by it, but it'll be forgotten once a few other fighting games get announced.
So, to put it shortly: It's a good fighting game, nostalgic fans of KI will enjoy it for the fan service, but it won't catch-on competitively or on a more 'casual' audience, it'll be forgotten within 6 months, and it won't be 'great' to the greater public. I think thats fair enough for a game like this.
Right, well I'm more obliged to take the word of a few well known Youtube gamers over the word of a closet cow so I'll take that with a grain of salt. I know what you're going to say next, that you don't care, but you do otherwise we wouldn't be having this conversation.
Maybe it will, but I'll be sure to bookmark this so in 6 months from now we can see if it's been forgotten or not.
"edit" btw just learned from Acidglow who's a FGC commentator that the game has has footsies, zoning, mixups, crossups, tech grabs and combos. Most of the things people look for in a competitive fighting game.

These price cuts are not strange, i always remember consoles beeing vastly overpriced near launch and going down a lot a few months or a year later
Xbox 360 might have been a bit different, because they had a very cheap version at 300$ at launch, while PS3 was about 600$, the difference was immense
Now it is xbox one that is like PS3 case and i bet the drop will come in 2014 and not after the holidays
Also the 500$ price is outrageous, given it is so much weaker than PS4, i doubt they will find a lot of people to pay that to get such a low spec system, when the competion offers so much more for 100$ less
@Telekill:
Yet isn't it sad that M$ wouldn't even allow Rare to work on their own game when they tried to and instead gave it to a hack developer? Oh the freedom M$ gives to the studios they acquire.
6 character reboot of a dead franchise made by Double Helix LOL. I think I'll manage to survive without it. Besides PS4 is getting Guilty Gear Xrd in a few months which will destroy KI.
It will be a DLC driven, unfinished bland fighter.
LOL if you're hyping this.
Poor cow, the idea of playing Knack for the next 6 months must be killing you.
Still better than playing inferior multiplat games in 720p/30 fps, kinect crap and Ryse.
Have fun with your Xbone 720p cablebox though. LOL

LMAO I challenge you or any cow dipshit on this site to find a single video that shows BF4 or COD Ghost looking any better on the PS4, because all the videos shown so far have shown the complete opposite. At least the Kinect Crap is original, vs watered down PC sloppy seconds. Have fun playing Warframe on your laggy ass servers xD
btw I'm not buying either system until next year, I just think cows are morons.
@Murderstyle75: I'm ok with that to get the original KI, plus purchasing that gets you every character in the possible garbage game. Either way you can download the game for free and see what it's like with Jago and gauge if the possible garbage game is worth dumping money into just to get the original game :) so it's win win if the new KI is even decent
theres something about this game which is extremely unappealing to me, I know i dont like the impact of the hits, its a bit weird like theres a strange freeze/slow down in between each hit, like it doesn't look smooth, I dont really know how to explain it.
but theres something else I cant quite put my finger on.
So.. i'm missing a $20 downloadable game, made by a shitty dev, who has yet to create a good game?
I'm alright with that.
don't forget about micro transactions.

It's not my fault Xbone is weak and that you're butthurt. Blaim MS for your butthurt, they made that weak POS, casual, co..cablebox. Okey dipshit?

I knew you were going to say something like this. You lack anything remotely resembling a cohesive argument so you pull out the butthurt and cry moar cards, because you have nothing else. Concession accepted.

Why do you ignore the facts then? I would like to have a proper discussion but then you go on an incoherent, rambling spree.
Okay try to answer this:
Do you think it's normal you have to pay 100 dollars more for a console that gives you less power than its competitor that is cheaper and stronger?

You would like to have a proper discussion? Really?

Somehow I don't see that happening. Remind me again who busted out the crying and butthurt cards? Blaming MS for my butthurt? Should I blame MS because cows were fed lead flavored baby formula when they were young?

I've already stated this several times including once in this very conversation. I'm not buying either right now. But to answer your question no, but then again I wouldn't pay 400 dollars for Sony's crappy lineup of exclusives, terrible network infrastructure and weak PSN service. If they fix these in the future then will see.
