It's not unreasonable to believe that it is.

Do tell.

Smaller events don't have the money for cabinets.
If Xbones aren't logistically feasable to use at smaller events then it's not going to have much of a presence on the tournament scene. That's just how it is.

The dev said they are working with their partners at MS to make sure tournaments are not a problem. He didn't avoid the question, he answered a direct question with a direct answer. Maybe if there was some reason to doubt him, like a previous statement that ended up to be wrong, or if the game wasn't published by MS, you might have a reason to be pessimistic.

I don't doubt that they will be able to support larger events, but I don't think MS is gonna let the hundreds of people who run smaller events have non-DRM Xbones or whatever, and if those smaller events aren't supported, then the interest at the bigger events is gonna be nil.
It's possible they have something in mind I haven't considered, but I have a mind of my own and don't take somebody saying something as an undeniable truth. They're gonna have to give me something other than "Well we're working on it so it'll be OK guys promise."

A new build of KI will be at Evo. I've also got a ton of info on things not featured in the E3 build that I'll be writing up later this week.

that's awesome that they included that at the show.
I really hope that some of the music retains its 90s cheese:

The quality of KI is the surprise of E3, and the cabinet is the game of the show. Double Helix is killing it, what a great story.

As someone who loved the original (not really a huge fan of KI2) and logged countless hours on my SNES copy, KI was one of the few things I thought the Xbone might revive as an exclusive that might make me consider a platform that I thought had nothing going for it, in terms of what I'm interested in at least.
From some of the footage I've seen, I'm not impressed and will not be spending $500 to play this.
Hopefully it turns out decent and those of you who are on board end up happy with it though.

In the other thread it was stated that the demo was created in 5 weeks.
Evo just got more awesome

Reading about all this concern on tournaments wouldn't it be safe to assume that the people in these tournaments would have an X1 and they're copy of the game which if you sign in on your profile you can take it anywhere with you without the actual disc? So the tourney provider needs one copy to put all the "bits" on the systems then the players sign in on there account and have no trouble playing?

I want this game but I don't want MS's drm.

My thoughts exactly. It's a little bitter sweet for me. I've been wanting another one of these games for quite some time and I'm very excited for this. However, I'm so not excited for the XB1. Kind of sucks. Ah well.

So is anyone actually excited about this title and the F2P aspect?

Totally different KI. I don't remember the original one having tossing in it. Looks pretty cool
Yes. Now before everyone throws shit, let me explain why.
If they have one character free and available to everybody, in both single player and (online) multiplayer, that opens up the game to everyone with a Xbox One and Gold. That's pretty huge to me, because it immediately opens up the game to anybody on the platform. They get a free mode to practice in, and you get to play against anyone online.
As long as there's no time limit, and the other characters aren't overpriced, I think this could be a great decision.
You mean throws? KI2 had them.

Don't watch anything that's not running at 60fps.
Very cool, the legend!: http://www.twitch.tv/madcatz
He just basically said KI is in dev for a year now over at DH.

Thank's for the video. I admit I missed KI on the original go around but to hear such universal praise from those I know at E3 its making a killing in the hype department.

Ken is the man! So glad he is at MS to see this thing through.
So, at the bottom of "Xbox One Pre-Order Product Information" sheet, it says:

Yes, this is for the f2p demo version. There is a full version available with all characters at the standard price.

why would you even feel hesitant to say that? as if suggesting it looks good is...doing a bad thing?
The negative air has everyone tiptoeing when it comes to XB1 positivity it seems.
lol at Art getting owned by Ken Lobb.
Apparently is taboo to say something positive about Microsoft and their games

I was never a big fan of KI, but watching that makes me want it. I'll download the F2P version for sure.

I'm watching the Twitch.TV stream. My gawd, those particles on Jago's fireball! My jaw dropped when I saw the particles from a fireball smashing into another fireball.
I am so hyped for this game.

I am interested to see what the developers do about the whole "Multiple machines at Evo" thing. Any chance of MS making licenses specific to the fighting or competitive gaming community?

Game looks so good.
I was expecting just a cheap cash in for years and years if it ever did come back.
I like how it seems the pro community is embracing this right out the gate. Even though they are relatively unknown and unproven - the developers are really doing the game some justice.
