Forums - Gaming - Head of Microsoft Studios calls new Killer Instinct a success, says other IPs will return

Announce a real Banjo Kazooie or go home.

If I ever buy an eighth gen console, BK would persuade me to get the One over the PS4.

Well that is good to hear, considering the entry fee is.....free, and the monetization options are for any budget.

Good thing with fighting games like Street Fighter 4 is that they can have longevity throughout the generation as long as the gameplay is sound; all you have to do is add characters overtime to keep it fresh, which KI is doing.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

Good news honestly. If MS keeps this up I may have to rethink my never support a MS console stance.


Get the console used, get the game used, and bam, no support to MS while still playing any exclusives you think are worth the trouble. Only issue is paying for online...but that's not an issue for single player and local multiplayer!

I really, really don't want them to touch Banjo again...I just don't trust them. Don't ruin it anymore than you already have.

Conker, on the other hand...so long as they don't censor it I'll be happy.

KI is download only.  :)  You have to buy the game.

Aw shoot, didn't think of that :/

Hopefully they don't do that with too many good games. I don't want that to become a trend across the industry...

Without Chris Seavor involved? I hope not. He IS Conker.



Check out my art blog: http://jon-erich-art.blogspot.com

This should be in the microsoft section.

Ot.

If microsoft bring back conker, banjo, battletoads etc with the quality and perfection of the new killer instinct then this generation saleswise will change very quickly. I already think 2014 will be the best year in the history of xbox ever games and saleswise for microsoft. Games prompting those sales.
