I don't think games like killer instinct and battle toads will sell these days, and I don't think platformers will perform very well on the 360 or nextbox. So I think they've been putting the last few years they've been quiet in to good use and making something fresh. MS wouldn't keep a huge team like Rare sitting around not doing anything for years, they are obviously up to something (probably more than one game) and I hope/expect it is something fresh.

they are working on 3 games.  And I think Killer Instict could do reasonably well.  Mayb around 700k to 1.2m.  Fighting games aren't as popular as they once were but some can do reasonably well if they are made well.

Yeah I thought they would be working on a bunch of games. They are a pretty big team. While 1.2m is pretty good, I'm not sure if its enough for MS. They seem to prefer going after genres that can sell multi millions. Oh, and I don't like fighting games so I'm biased :P Although it would be the beginning of a generation so MS might be more open to trying to push smaller games, kind of like they did with Kameo on the 360.

Haha Im not a huge fighter fan myself.  I like Mortal Kombat though and I like Killer Instict as a kid.  I think it would be a great launch title and a real change in pace from what we expect which is why I would like to see it.  And yeah I think MSFT will be having a load of new ip's in the next 2-3 years :)  Im sure some will fail, and some will be succesfful but Im ok with that.  im ready for some new ips or titles that we havent seen for a long time.
