Forums - Microsoft - Killer Instinct and Xbox One Get Booed At Evo 2013

During the Killer Instinct presentation at EVO 2013, the game was met with a pretty negative reception. Following the Injustice: Gods Among Us Finals, Madcatz and Double Helix came out on stage to do a 3-match presentation of the new and upcoming Killer Instinct game for the Xbox One.

And it wasn’t pretty.

First, I was personally watching the Twitch stream and reading the comments in the chatbox. There were around 98,000 people watching the KI presentation at the time (remember, this is during the EVO Finals), and I can accurately report that mostly (think 95%) everyone in there was tearing the game apart. Comments such as “Get this s*** off the stream” and  ”Nobody cares, show Marvel!” and “This looks terrible” were prevalent. Most viewers were blatnatly not impressed. The viewers were also not convinced that the commentators were genuine about their hype, and also felt that the matches were scripted.

Secondly, even worse, the attendees at EVO started chanting “Marvel! Marvel! Marvel!” in the crowd. Translation: “We don’t care for this, get off the stage.” I felt pretty bad for the guys from Double Helix, as it was clear that they heard the chants but had to ignore them and continue their commentary over the game.

And last but not least, after the presentation was over and they were wrapping it up with some details, they dropped that forbidden name: “Xbox One”. The crowd was instantly outraged and boos ensued for quite a long stretch of time. You could tell on the look on the presenters’ faces that they were clearly embarrassed, and you couldn’t help but to feel for them.

It was really something to watch this all go down live, but it just goes to show just how much damage Microsoft has down to the Xbox One’s image, and I feel that an actually good game may be getting battered because of it.

Just a bunch of trolls. Most people are hella excited for it.

No one is excited for a free to play game that comes with one character and you have to buy everyone else seperately. Not to mention this game isn't even developed by Rare. How can you get excited for this lol.

No offence to anyone who is actually excited...



Yea, non of my sony friends that wear sony shirts are buying it... No one then is buying it because me and my friends are awesome. C'mon bro. This was trolls at this event. Fanboyism at events has got to it's lowest point. I'm going to be laughing as this game sells millions.



Ah, nevermind. Everyone knows Real Life is full of Sony Fanboys!

what exactly is a season pass? sounds like NBA whenre you buy for a year and need to pay more again next year. 

They said they want to keep adding content over time but they haven't clarified exactly how seasons will work.



A season's pass content you own forever. They do it for Gears. This is so funny people that never even touched a xbox trying to trash what they don't understand.

Fast forward to 1:02. You can hear the crowd get hype when the axe hits the tree. Trust me people want to play this game.

Don't know how to embed



Season Passes only exist for a small amount of games. Anyone who doesn't care about online or DLC naturally won't know what it is.

Yes, many people still like to play offline. #dealwithit (jk)
