Jeff Gertsmann says Double Helix are making it.

Ewwwwwwwwwwww. As if I wasn't put off by this game already.

 

[grandjedi6]

If that's true than I have no interest. I guess Rare is better suited to making Kinect sports games, lol.

If you want more proof:

 

[morikaze]

I'm STILL not buying an Xbox One, but DAMN. After all these years of waiting, it finally happens.

 

[NEO0MJ]

They couldn't find a better studio than Double Helix ?!

This looks like a game MS cooked up just hook the hardcore, but with no real interest in if it's good or bad. It's a launch date game, after all.

 

[deadhorse32]

 

[Rinoa]

Its being made by Double Helix games so I'm not getting excited.

Meh. That was my first question. "WHO IS MAKING THIS" because that's what matters more than the title/ip now.

 

[ZenTzen]

Double Helix no thanks, and not like Rare would be an improvement either

 

[NEO0MJ]

double post

 

[joe2187]

I wonder how tournaments will be like seeing as how much of hassle it would be to setup an XBone station for tourney play.

 

[Gartooth]

Really really happy to see Killer Instinct come back, but the gameplay footage didn't impress me. Interested to see more impressions.

 

[Lambda Pie]

looked current gen-ish, to be honest.

 

[Seik]

Where are the GIFs?

I need some because youtube is blocked. D:

And what?! Not even develloped by Rare, double-helix? :\

 

[Tatsumaki Senpuukyaku!]

If rare wasn't going to make it they could have at least gotten netherrealm considering their ties to the old ki games and the fact that they're the only game developer in 2013 capable of making a good ki game. I'd be shocked if ms didn't at least approach them

 

[ShinobiFist]

Game looks like ass, no thanks.

 

[NEO0MJ]

triple post.

 

[FoneBone]

Did he really say to her, "let it happen, it'll be over soon?"

I'll vote for that as an all-time E3 low point. Jesus Christ.

 

[Cow Mengde]

If you want more proof:

Hahahaha! OMG! That's what they got to revive Killer Instincts?

 

[Kacho]

If you want more proof:

Oh no...

 

[AranhaHunter]

WTF is this? This is NOT Killer Instinct.

 

[Jotamide]

Oh man, it looks fun IMO. This being an XBone exclusive me so sad.

EDIT: Oh wow, these guys are bad.

 

[Sgblues]

Man this looks horrible, why couldn't they have gotten someone other than Double Helix? Oh well this is so laughably bad.....

 

[Stillmatic]

Huge fan of the previous games. They butchered the look of this, not digging it at all. :/

 

[SDBurton]

While it still looks pretty rough, I just can't believe we're actually getting a new KI. Holy shit.

 

[Omegasquash]

Ah, this warms my cold, dead heart.

 

[shaowebb]

Wait Double Helix is making it? Ooooooooooh crap...this is a crapshoot now. For Maximillian's sake here's hoping its one of the moments they get something right. This has a lot of potential to fail now given who is making it.

 

[watkinzez]

Robin Beanland, the composer for the original Killer Instinct, is still at Rare. If he is not working on this game in any capacity I will jump in a lake.

 

[MisterLuffy]

KI looks weird, I would rather have NRS working on it.

 

[antitrop]

Sweet bullshot.

 

[Jotamide]

Wow, looks like these guys are just discovering arcades. :S

 

[Metalmurphy]

DEM SPARKS! So good.

 

[Gilgamesh]

I can't believe they're actually making this shit, but Double Helix shows they just farmed it out to the lowest bidder for a quick cash grab.

 

[bhlaab]

Jeff Gertsmann says Double Helix are making it.

IMPORTANT!!

It's being made by the guys who made Silent Hill Homecoming and Battleship: The Movie: The Game

 

[ED Cantu]

When they showed the logo and the announcer I got pretty excited, but then they showed the game and to be honest I don't like the designs for the characters, Jago specially looks weird.

Of course I hope the game turns out great but the first impression was not really good for me.

 

[Star Falcon]

It looks like Street Fighter IV style, don't get the hate. Were people expecting 90s polygons?

Glad to see the series making a comeback, look forward to more details.

 

[Coxy]

IMPORTANT!!

It's being made by the guys who made Silent Hill Homecoming and Battleship: The Movie: The Game

and front mission evolved, they are the killers of IP

 

[pawelranger]

From a big KI fan, this not looks like a Killer Instinct game, looks like Street Fighters with larger combos also character models are so bad.

 

[_woLf]

The announcer sold that trailer as a huge nostalgia bomb for me.

...but still not worth getting an XBone.

 

[ShirAhava]

Killer Instinct was never good....Double Helix is a good fit for this IP

 

[-COOLIO-]

where's the fireball gif?

 

[DedValve]

This is the only game that makes me gutted that I'm not getting a stupid one. All the nostalgia of playing the SNES version is now rushing to my head, brb gotta go empty my load now.

 

[kick51]

That's not Jago (as in, it's him, but they fucked him up) and welp....you guys got your new Killer Instinct game, can't believe they "listened" lolololol

 

[Fine Ham Abounds]

I want this, but not enough to lease it for $560.

 

[Iced_Eagle]

This looked great! Loved the particle effects.

60fps?

 

[branny]

Ugh. We'll just have to see how it turns out, I guess.

 

[sambox]

WTF is this? This is NOT Killer Instinct.

The latest Mortal Kombat also changed graphic style.

The latest Mortal Kombat is very different from the first title.

 

[freeofgreed]

I'am surprised they managed to make KI seem even more cheesy. From what was shown it looks very interest, probably won't be very deep, but KI never really was. Looks like they SF4'd the art style, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Also why are people complaining about the Dev shift? Even if Rare developed it, it's not like the same people who worked on the old one would've been back for this one.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

So the developer's not exactly got a great track record right? Why aren't Rare themselves doing this?

 

[TheLastCandle]

The music and announcer got me so hyped. And then I saw it in action and wanted to piss all over my own face. Bleh.

 

[kick51]

Except, you know, the MK guys have actually been making fighting games and changed up the style constantly.


This is just asssss

 

[Northeastmonk]

Playing both in the arcade and at home. I just feel like this is a tad too late. But it looked decent enough to try. I'm not exactly sure its going to get Triple A ratings.
