The Music of Video Games [174] Killer Instinct

[StreetsOfSonic]

Why the SNES version over the Arcade version? This one (SNES) is shit.

[DrStrangefate]

Fight On!

[sonicmario64]

I actually played the Game Boy version of this, but it was still fun. :D

[0871Atta]

I love spinal. He's the first character I got really good at. *coolshades*

[guitarnukka724]

LOVED this game

[lisento]

Music around 5:00 sounds like Predator?

[hatemo]

Shit!

This game has wonderful musics, movements, fatalities..

It gives me chills..

[Kooly1]

I hated Glacius. He was such a dick. I either played with Spinal or Fulgore.

[allboutk]

ultra ultra ultra ultra

supreme victory

perfect

[kirbykrisis18]

KI3 FTW.

[carmpb]

Respond to this video... 

[Stahlvanten]

Is it you (garudoh) who plays in your vids? You've must have spent many hours praticticing, really fluid gameplay. Great game, great memories.

[killerinstinct102]

and cinder dances to saberwulfs theme song

[DrStrangefate]

FIGHT....ON!!!!!

[itstimetodie]

ULTRAAA...ULTRAAA....ULTRAAAA.­.... ULTRAAAA...

[BrianCD85]

1 person can't do an ultra combo.

[tylerdurden3891]

Cinder's theme=Me psyching myself up, then lifting something heavy and throwing it.

[Goins2754]

This game is SO due for a comeback. I'd buy KIIII for PS3 in a heartbeat!

[Luis1vo]

CLASICON!!!!!!

[JonGeric]

has anyone said it yet?...C-C-C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER!!...the guy playing this game a mr DFG obviously has two thumbs on each hand how else can you explain his ability to pull off godly combos...plus the music itself is fantastic but what did you expect from a game where you can make a fucking skeleton fight a raptor

[SuperNinjaMarth]

@JonGeric The gameplay was all Tool-Assisted.

[rahorin]

I played that game so much I knew every move and every combo of every character. I would say Spinal and Jago were the hardest to learn to play. You have an advantage though if you were really good with those two characters because most people aren't used to fighting with those characters.

[hungarianbeast]

fuck the video isnt long enough :D i would watch this guy for hours and hours!!

[ydefgde]

noooooo..este devio estar en un puesto mas alto....

[nintygaming]

KI is without a doubt the greatest fighting game of all time. There are haters, but the haters are the ones that suck at learning and utilizing the amazing combo system. Once a person learns the beauty of the combo system, they start begging Rare to bring out KI3. In 1995, I played this game and Mortal Kombat 3 to death at the arcades. If it weren't for Killer Instinct, then the arcades would've been boring due to the amount of Street Fighter rehashes that still keep coming out even to this day.

[is7848]

&& cinder was the best

[is7848]

aww this was my first video game

[rafaelluiz18]

THAT IS A BADASS GAME

[BayronJeam]

spinal is the best!!!!

[desotowright]

This is one my favorite fighter games ever and the music is beastly, I've always loved the select screen music which got further great treatment in Killer Instinct Gold.

[reniisgod]

ULTRA!!

[smashmansnake]

no jago or glacius music :(

[Shishizurui]

that first song makes me want to go lift weights, and i'm the most inactive guy out there.

[v0lt35v]

ahh good times!

[DenyThisFlesh]

The KI games are not only my favorite fighting games ever, but they have the best music too. Come on Rare! We want KI3!

[StreetShark2013]

me too I really hope they make KI3 soon I'll be pissed if they don't

[Albus43]

@StreetShark2013 I heard at X10 they WILL do it in the future, but are currently not working on it now

[StreetShark2013]

but Screwattack said that rare announced that they arre going to make KI3

[Brotramel]

@DenyThisFlesh Rare is no Longer a Company.

[llkrashll1]

ixi as musica tão atrasadoa hein bixo

[aero912]

Ok, Now this beats bad ass... For real.

[Camwi]

I can't comment on Rare's recent games, as I haven't played them, but damn did they used to make a badass soundtrack.

[sunshine3333333333]

My favorit fighting game ever!

[Augastine1]

me too i heard its coming out on 360 sweat.

[DenyThisFlesh]

There have been rumors that the arcade version might show up on the Xbox Live Arcade, but nothing has been announced yet. I really hope it does come out on the Live Arcade though. That would be sick.

[hotcarl84]

this game kicked more ass than most games in the last 5 years

[songokuehfoda]

DarkFulgore FTW

best fight game ever

DarkFulgore = The guy who did the speedrun playing spinal

[BLARGHALT]

Why is it that anytime monolithic corporations are involved in a game's story, the music is assured to be kickass?

[gojira12345678910]

I know there are other games, But give me some examples.

[jillsandwich11]

Holy crap i still have this game! I need to do an lp on it. I got freaked out by Riptor so much. This brings back so many memories.

[nintendude01]

This gives me chills...

[wurstkind]

epic music!!

i am so glad, i still have the soundtrack cd that came with the game =D

[rwmgrif361]

oh god the swelling thumbs i would get from this game lmao! great game 1 of a kind

[totorosan428]

oh man i used to play this when i was sixx this is major nostalgia right there the music was hardcore and i loved this game sooo much, idol was scary as hell though

[calvin152]

one of the best classic song for a fighting game

[Zalor]

That Spinal in the video is fucking insane.

I loved this game immensely but that didn't change the fact that I was terrible at it.

[chickentava]

last song is the bomb but the game and all it's music kicks ass i own a case of factory sealed ki games

[r6srider]

[g8282]

[FloMonKish]

[ybz2207]

I know. Now you know the musicians were fuckin' badass! Listen to that intro and sabrewulf theme is like WHOA!

[jamiejame911]

Dude Sabrewolf's music was the bomb!!

[sugacookiegetta]

spinal's theme is the Fuckin best.sounds like a heart attack on its way.

[churchboy12]

Cinder was supposed to win!!

[ybz2207]

Lol. Pickin' sides...are we? I liked fulgore. He was badass. Well, they all were, but fulgore and glacious.

[dvp89]

C-C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER!!

[ybz2207]

Gotta love that shit. I still say that shit. Love live K.I.

[al3ageeed]

[dynamik008]

Hands down the best soundtrack for a fighting game.

[jbtenseventeen]

One of the best fighting games ever made.

[JSRF38]

[holsisyolswa]

K I for the win every time

the complete package. music.. major beat downs. combos. killer moves. fatalitys. what more do u need.

[FloMonKish]

holy snap spinal for the win!

[beastydon]

dis game a classic need a ps3 version or part 3

[ThisDyingDream]

I know. I want this game and double dragon to be continued onto Playstation, or pretty much any console this day and age. I'm glad street fighter was continued. Anyhow, I loved this game, I slayed all with Jago.

[SVN4]

why dont Rare do a KI1 remake with all new HD graphics and everything??

it is copyrights issue thing, or do they are just lazy? =|

[0rcryst]

SVN4 - Why don't they release the fucking mame version for Live Arcade, etc?

By the way garudoh, I've got the mame versions of these tracks if you're interested.

[ricopicouk]

Blimey, I thought I was good at thi game until I saw thise dude playing as spinal..

Holy Crap!!

[garudoh]

I know, my balls tucked themselves in almost immediately. Fighting games, not my thing.

[ogikehigh]

ULTRAAAA ULTRAAAA ULTRAAAAAAA, this game is still awesome to play against friends

[garudoh]

Had that CD as well. I can't remember if it came with the game or some Nintendo Power thing, but regardless, I air guitar'd the hell out of those tunes.

[doppleganger4827]

It came with the game, which was sweet!

[ATDOINFERNO]

@garudoh As far as I can remember, it came with the game, as I didn't have easy access to Nintendo Power. (Y)

[superdrunk4life]

Yeah I remeber having that CD. Hell if I know where it is now though. I'll still tear it up with Combo though.

[doppleganger4827]

Check out Galbadia Hotel, they have to whole soundtrack there.

[wolvebuck]

I still have the soundtrack CD that came with this game. It was entitled "Killer Cuts" and had a decent selection of music on it.
