View Full Version : Is this Rare's "historic" game that they're bringing back?

A lot of people are thinking Killer Instinct, but they keep emphasizing the word "historic." Also remember in the conference they mentioned lifting up the new controller to use as a "shield."

I think the game is Wizards & Warriors.

Wizards & Warriors (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wizards_%26_Warriors) (Acclaim/Rare - NES) 1987
Ironsword: Wizards & Warriors II (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ironsword:_Wizards_%26_Warriors_II) (Acclaim/Rare - NES) 1989
Wizards & Warriors X: The Fortress of Fear (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wizards_%26_Warriors_X:_The_Fortress_of_Fear) (Acclaim/Rare - Gameboy) 1990
Wizards & Warriors III: Kuros: Visions of Power (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/6/61/Wizards_and_Warriors_III_2.png/220px-Wizards_and_Warriors_III_2.png) (Acclaim/Rare - NES) 1992

Plus we have a potential pic of the Rare game for Xbox One which appears to show a knight who is probably "Kuros" (see game next to Halo):

That would be quite a disappointment if so :( WE WANT KILLER INSTINCT

If I'm not mistaken ms tried to get KI back to gamers but ran into problems w a tv show with the name "killer instinct" and bc of that we didn't get KI. Who knows what may be down the road but ms def has the $$$ to make things happen. Hmmmm I wonder what ki would be like if rare wasn't behind it?
