Yes, you read that right. A NEW Killer Instinct! That's gonna so own if it's true. And 50 player Halo? WTF? LoL.

Holy crap, Killer Instinct was freaking awesome on the arcade and SNES. 50-64 player Halo 3 will end up being huge. Can't wait for the Sonic and Forza 2 demos to hit. I'm still waiting on the Tiger Woods '07 demo to come out. I thought that was supposed to be on the marketplace like three weeks ago? Blastid!

Hopefully these rumors are true. Thanks for the heads up.

I must say this all does seem a bit fake. We'll see though. Tomorrow's the big day!

[hx3]

I'll be damned if Killer Instinct ends up being fake, haha. I haven't heard anything about that game even being made, so I have a good feeling that I got my hopes up when I read it. And if it is fake, then I'll give credit to the person who made it up. That's one of the last games I would think of to make a return. I haven't heard of Killer Instinct in years.

A Sonic demo seems possible. That game is coming out in mid-November, right? Forza 2, I highly doubt. Last I heard, it isn't coming out this year and they aren't even close to it being finished yet. Maybe they'll have a playable track and such on the floor.

I mostly see X06 being aimed at Gears, Halo 3, the HD-DVD addon and some other games. Shit we already know about, but we'll see new content.

Yeah, posted it just a few posts above yours :O

Anyway, I think it should be fine if they do like some of the 360 games have done, like FFXI did, and let you use a USB keyboard and mouse. I have a wireless set so that makes it even sweeter if they do!

Keyboard and Mouse work with the 360 though, it's just up to the devs to actually make their games for it.
