Some use fists and feet, some use projectiles and claws, while others teleport, slide, and change form to win the battle. There won't be a dull moment during the bouts. This unique fighting game works on a very fast, very simple, and quite effective combo system. Instead of your normal one-button, one- hit fighting style; you sometimes chain together 3 to 21 hits in a few button presses.
While this style of combos is not for everyone and may irk fighting purists, it's certainly entertaining and fun to watch But ultimately, you end up doing a lot of watching. What fun is it to stand by and watch another player of advanced skill whip you until you scream "Uncle! Although moves called Combo Breakers enable you to break free from this barrage of beastly brutality, they don't work all the time.
Adding further to the humiliation are Humiliations are embarrassing moves that totally disgrace your opponent by, for example, farting on them, exposing yourself to them, or otherwise robbing them of their dignity. The many other finishing moves will also do the job of making your enemy feel like a putz.
Although the arcade version broke ground with its rendered combatants, don't expect anything close to that here. The graphics are good -- but not great -- with lots of choppy movement and missing frames of animation.
The backgrounds are nowhere near the quality of the arcade version, and some of the better background effects, like knocking enemies off the high-rise and onto the roof of a parked car on the street below, were taken out. The scaling in and out of the stages that appeared in the arcade is absent as well. The sounds vary between okay and awful. Some fighter's sounds are intact, like Sabrewulfs howling and whimpering, but some sound effects, like Fulgore's Teleport, are just a dismal din.
The music permeates each stage with a thumping house mix, but there's little variety. Also missing is the announcement of the combos, which amped the arcade excitement. Control is not too difficult. Special moves can be regularly applied because most are fireball and Dragon Punch motions. You can also easily string together lots of moves for combos. But the tougher combos like the Ultra and Ultimate are button presses that need to be performed during another combo, which makes for a lot of confusion on the joypad.
If you loved Killer in the arcade, you'll be slightly disappointed but not upset by this version. If you've always wanted to play Killer but were intimidated by the Killer Stinkers who seemed to always hang around the machine, this is a good version to practice on. All in all, it's a good game with some flaws. Maybe not a Killer, but definitely a felon. If you're a fan of collectible card games like MagicThe Gathering, VampireJhe Masquerade or Rage and also happen to be a devotee of Nintendo's Killer Instinct, then we've got some news for you:Topps, Nintendo and Rareware have joined unholy forces to create the Killer Instinct collectible card game.
Like other games of its ilk, the KI game will be available in starter decks decks of around 60 cards which allow you to begin playing immediately and booster packs packs of around ten cards which allow you to customize your deck with other cards of different abilicards and will naturally be similar to the arcade game, but at the same time, will be a wholly different sort of experience.
Look for the KI collectible card game on sale at your favorite pop culture shoppe in April. Nintendo's fast-action fighting game of combo moves has been shrunk down and packed into the Game Boy. Now, you can take your favorite fighters anywhere you go in portable form and battle your way up the fighting scale of warriors on the go.
Besides the most obvious loss of Riptor, the characters remain the same. The moves and combos are the same for each character. But in this portable version, the ability to build up a great amount of attacks appears to have been lost in the conversion process.
The programmers seem to have forgotten to bring over the one feature that made KI different from rest of the fighting game masses--combos. The combos are still included, but even experienced players will have difficulty putting together anything more than just a monster combo. The appearance of the stages and the characters are decent and fairly close to real even for the miniature screen of the Game Boy.
There is even changing background music clicks and pops that is almost as upbeat as its color big brother. The sound effects are the only area of irritation even in portable form. They sound like nothing more than two different tones of someone dragging a shoe across concrete.
The louder noises are representative of a hit and the quieter ones mean that the opponent has blocked or that the move missed. If you can't get enough of KI no matter where you look, try the Game Boy version. If you are looking for a new thrill, pass on this one and stick to what the Game Boy does best: puzzle and minimal action games. Nintendo really butchered this game when they converted it over to the Game Boy.
I wasn't expecting much, but this shouldn't have even been attempted. The graphics are pixelized beyond reasonable limits. They even removed Riptor, my favorite character. The audio is a series of bland beeps. Choose your ultimate combatants each with fluid animations, unique combat tactics, and enthralling special attacks.

The player who depletes his or her opponent's second life bar wins the bout. Automatic combos: rather than press the necessary buttons in order to deliver the individual attacks that form a combo, in Killer Instinct the combos are automated and can be enabled by inputting a determined button or special move which led to the character to deliver a string of hits.
Finishing moves: Present in the first and second games and bearing resemblance to Mortal Kombat's Fatalities, each character has at least two moves known as No Mercy Danger Move in later revisions in order to finish the opponent in a violent manner. One of these No Mercy moves can be executed at the end of a combo which is labeled as an Ultimate combo , when the opponents life bar flashes red when his or her second bar is going to be depleted , although it uses a different combination of movements.
Another finisher is the Humiliation, that forces the opponent to dance the dance style depends on the character , but this can only be used if the player has his or her first life bar.
Stage Ultra: Similar to the ultra combo, but is unique to the fighting stage and positioning of fighters. When performed correctly it can be as simple as knocking a player out of or off a building to sealing them away in a magical book. Combo Breaker: The player who is being caught in a combo may break out of it by performing a combo breaker move.
The combo breaker is a designated special move of the player's character. A combo can be broken at either the auto-double or linker stage.
