This game was my LIFE back in 1997! Ahhhh! I still remember all those epic stage fatals, the awesome music. the epic fighting, and especially playing on ludicrous speed on master difficulty. I forgot all about that sky stage until I saw the very end of this video. Such a blast to the past!
Hi Asthbel - Im happy that you liked the movie.. by the way... what did you mean about saying: But there is no such thing as a impredictble simulant? :) thanks for your comments - KI forever! ;)
I remember the insane combos in this game, renting this thing at blockbuster with just enough money as a kid, only to button mash like crazy as sabrewulf and make little to no progress on normal. DAMN, those were the days. Man, it has been a while.
they really need to bring this game back. it had the best soundtrack out of all the fighting games ever made. i could imagine the graphics if it ever came out in the near future.
They should really be making more Killer Instinct games. Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter came all the way to the top. Why did they leave their son behind?
Awesome job! I remember beating this game on master with Jago too. I so regret selling this game ... A nice black cartridge. I sold my yellow DK64 too. :( Rare was awesome ... was.
I have beaten KI Gold in the hardest difficulty; I have beaten KI Gold in Ludicris speed, but never the combination of the two. You are a true master. *bows*
Awesome job! I remember beating the game game with Jago on master too. I so regret selling this game. Nice black cartridge. I sold my yellow DK64 too! :( Rare was awesome ... was.
@vernaculos it's cuz Rare was bought by Microsoft (the people who make the xbox 360). i don't completely understand it cuz there has been a new Banjo-Kazooie game (but it was not the same as the first 2 haha). but anyway, i did hear a rumor about Rare CONSIDERING the idea of remaking the first 2 K.I. or making a new one. but yeah, fingers crossed! :)
this game gives some really good memories! AMAZING GAME WITH AN OUTSTANDING SOUNDTRACK! one of my main musical inspiration aswell as other rare games like the Donkey Kong Country series which also had amazing gameplay and soundtrack!
I would say for myself it would be the NES. Without it, video games wouldn't be where they are. But the N64 still lives on in my heart as not only a childhood memory, but also as one mean platform.
man i was the master at this game to during junior high school 7th 8th grade lol man i miss those days u never really realize how great they are till there gone
OMG i love this game so much!!! lol when my brother and his friend would play, i would watch and to kinda distract them i would talk to them, so when stuff happens like at 2:26 when the wall breaks i would be like "Look what y'all did!" lol MEMORIES!!!
I member getting this for my 12 bday in 1997 for N64 it was the best game to play me my god sister and cousins played it all night non-stop till we took a break so they sing happy bday to me and ate cake LOL then continued playing
thats a more detailed explanation. but at the time, most people knew that when a arcade game being ported, there were gonna be downgrades. unlike today. but it came out nicely. i wonder how much of an improvement KIG would have gotten if it used the N64 expansion ram? i like to see them made available again. snes/n64 version on wii. KI1/2 arcade for xbox.
spinal is definitely 1 of the greats in this game because he was eyedols apprentice. eyedol trained him and made him his rigtht hand man. he also ressurected spinal to guard ultratech from the KI tournament!
i tout that this was the arcade version from killer instict onder the name ki gold. but the graphics looks so different and the tiltle screen and the character select intro looks like to be inforior!!??
since everyone's into cross overs (Marvel vs. Capcom, MK vs. DC, Tekken vs, Street Fighter, Smash Bros), I think Ultimate MK vs. Killer Instinct would work. I'm sure that would have to go through a platoon of lawyers before that ever happened, but I think those two games would blend well. The crazy combos, loud announcers, fatalities, joke finishing moves, they'd be a natural fit.
thanks! - yes wery close calls :D - It has bin long time since I played this game, so Im not 100% sure what the greenish thing Fulgore used on me - but I think its a target that enhances the lazers accuracy.
@Funtaman yeh but blocking does add interest to the game.however,blocking can get stupid if you are allowed to block a whole bunch of combos.if a person throws liek a 90 hit combo yuo should not be allowed to block it though.
My strategy with Killer Instinct Gold: 1. Jump in with a fierce. 2. Press buttons like a fiend until something cool happens. Me and my brother eventually used every Ultra and Ultimate in the game following this sacred technique. We never really beat the game on anything higher than normal, but it was fun.
@sr20DETdrift Thanks for comment - I cant see any resembling game play to mortal combat - only the blood splatter. But this cant be the reason. There have bin brutal fighting games before MC. So, I think all the strategy or reason why another game havent come up - Its Rare´s decision.
Jajaja, orchid almost owned you :P What a great game, one of the best one along game's history. In this one my favorite char was Fulgore, a deadly machine >8)
Makes me wish they made some Downloadable Arcade game version of this I love 1 & 2 of KI they were Dope... If they made a special collectors edition or something like how they did with Street Fighter I would be so Happy...
This game was my LIFE back in 1997! Ahhhh! I still remember all those epic stage fatals, the awesome music. the epic fighting, and especially playing on ludicrous speed on master difficulty. I forgot all about that sky stage until I saw the very end of this video. Such a blast to the past!
Killer Instinct has the best music ever for fighting games.
I can't believe after all these years, I still love this game! Nice comeback on Orchid!
The Killer Instinct franchise is the best fighting game series of all time hands down. Period.
That was one of the best Killer Instinct gameplay videos I've ever seen. Especially considering that it was on master level.
Oh the blisters and burns after playing this game ferociously everyday. Classic.
Dude u freaking rock.
I really like ur comebacks. Has alot of suspenses into them ^_^
whoever put this up YOU ARE BADASS! i can never beat that game and on the hardest level too. i respect that.
I personally liked the fight with Fulgore. That was the match of the whole video!
This totally brings me back. I used to do some mad ass combos with Orchid! They definitely need to revive this game for all platforms.
Hi Asthbel - Im happy that you liked the movie.. by the way... what did you mean about saying: But there is no such thing as a impredictble simulant? :) thanks for your comments - KI forever! ;)
Thanks for the video man it brought back so many good child hood memories
I remember the insane combos in this game, renting this thing at blockbuster with just enough money as a kid, only to button mash like crazy as sabrewulf and make little to no progress on normal.
DAMN, those were the days. Man, it has been a while.
OMG everytime orchid tried to do a "no mercy" on you, i kept jumping everytime! haha
@Funtaman well theres the blood and the sound, and there areas and the characters plus the finishing moves, theres alot like mortal combat in there
Wow, there were some close calls there. Impressive comeback while fighting Orchid, well done.
they really need to bring this game back. it had the best soundtrack out of all the fighting games ever made. i could imagine the graphics if it ever came out in the near future.
Your the Killer Master man. Nicely done. Gargos defeat was poetic.
your fight with Orchid was like the best come back ever ^_^
well done
@TedizRediz Not for PS3 Rare is owned by Microsoft nowadays, so any remakes/ sequels would be on the 360. Which sucks for PS3 only users
Thank you for this upload. You are AWESOME dude! I bow down to you
@poncemon Agreed! Remember Killer Cuts?
They should really be making more Killer Instinct games.
Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter came all the way to the top.
Why did they leave their son behind?
Awesome job! I remember beating this game on master with Jago too. I so regret selling this game ... A nice black cartridge. I sold my yellow DK64 too. :( Rare was awesome ... was.
The Tusk Level music was so epic. On second thought, all of the KI soundtrack was pretty epic.
RARE kicked ass back in the day. R.C. Pro-Am and Donkey Kong Country were classics!
I have beaten KI Gold in the hardest difficulty; I have beaten KI Gold in Ludicris speed, but never the combination of the two.
You are a true master.
*bows*
Awesome job! I remember beating the game game with Jago on master too. I so regret selling this game. Nice black cartridge. I sold my yellow DK64 too! :( Rare was awesome ... was.
This used to be my favorite game! I used to also play with jago!! I wish they had this for xbox
@DeannDmere maybe your could - Spinal can be hard to beat sometimes... but watch out for my blade :D
@vernaculos it's cuz Rare was bought by Microsoft (the people who make the xbox 360). i don't completely understand it cuz there has been a new Banjo-Kazooie game (but it was not the same as the first 2 haha). but anyway, i did hear a rumor about Rare CONSIDERING the idea of remaking the first 2 K.I. or making a new one. but yeah, fingers crossed! :)

@Epicenter223 yes, lot have change since - Im looking forward to the future of "Real-time Raytracing" graphics games :D
I remember watching this when I was 7.
This game had the craziest combo system in the world. But you gotta love. It won't suprise me if they release this on the WII's virtual console.
this game is the cherry on top of my youth
I would say for myself it would be the NES. Without it, video games wouldn't be where they are. But the N64 still lives on in my heart as not only a childhood memory, but also as one mean platform.
When?!!! I want!
Dude thats awesome. I loved this game on N64. I can't believe Nintendo hasn't resurrected it...
i love it when you're about to lose but win in the end!! =D makes it exciting and thrilling =P
man i was the master at this game to during junior high school 7th 8th grade lol man i miss those days u never really realize how great they are till there gone
I remember when I first got this game. I used to think, " Man, there's no way graphics can get better than this." Lol. Look where we are now!
Since 2006 I've been watching this. :B Still watching this now.
Jago was my favorite character on the game i can't wait to get the game back
It was 2006 I first watched this.
It's 2011 now soon 2012, and I'm STILL watching this speedrun xD;;
As a kid back then, i would always choose tusk and do the same move, was unbeatable!
can you post a video of all the knock offs for this version? i was kinda hoping you would do them all in this vid.
OMG i love this game so much!!! lol when my brother and his friend would play, i would watch and to kinda distract them i would talk to them, so when stuff happens like at 2:26 when the wall breaks i would be like "Look what y'all did!" lol MEMORIES!!!
I member getting this for my 12 bday in 1997 for N64 it was the best game to play me my god sister and cousins played it all night non-stop till we took a break so they sing happy bday to me and ate cake LOL then continued playing
You came bacck on that orchid match though. Good stuff!
Love Gargos theme. :) And nice man you own this game! I was never that good lol.
That was so nice to watch, enjoyed it so much. Great video, one day ill be that good...lol.
Didn't they also come out with Killer Instinct 3 for the X Box 360?
They really need to bring back these Classic games to the PS3 and 360
Uno de los mejores juegos , lo jugue muchisimo hace tiempo , me gustaria jugarlo d nuevo.
thats a more detailed explanation.
but at the time, most people knew that when a arcade game being ported, there were gonna be downgrades. unlike today.
but it came out nicely.
i wonder how much of an improvement KIG would have gotten if it used the N64 expansion ram?
i like to see them made available again. snes/n64 version on wii.
KI1/2 arcade for xbox.
@Rosati84 Well what the game designers did was measure how fast Ludacris can rap and they matched that with the speed of the computers attacks ^.^
that was impressive, but i'd like to see you do the same thing with other characters! please post some more!
spinal is definitely 1 of the greats in this game because he was eyedols apprentice. eyedol trained him and made him his rigtht hand man. he also ressurected spinal to guard ultratech from the KI tournament!
i really thought orchid was going to kick your ass XD
nice comeback man
@RTA07 cool to hear.. ya, I got this vid up for quite some time now :)
i tout that this was the arcade version from killer instict onder the name ki gold.
but the graphics looks so different and the tiltle screen and the character select intro looks like to be inforior!!??
I've always loved Jago
since everyone's into cross overs (Marvel vs. Capcom, MK vs. DC, Tekken vs, Street Fighter, Smash Bros), I think Ultimate MK vs. Killer Instinct would work. I'm sure that would have to go through a platoon of lawyers before that ever happened, but I think those two games would blend well. The crazy combos, loud announcers, fatalities, joke finishing moves, they'd be a natural fit.
Wow XD you're amazing in this game. And boy this game brings me back memories XP. My most used character in that game is Kim Wu(sp?)
thanks! - yes wery close calls :D - It has bin long time since I played this game, so Im not 100% sure what the greenish thing Fulgore used on me - but I think its a target that enhances the lazers accuracy.
N64 had awesome fighting-games, unlike what you might think
This guy is real good playing on the hardest settings
used to play this as a kid, tusk was my favorite hehe.
@Funtaman yeh but blocking does add interest to the game.however,blocking can get stupid if you are allowed to block a whole bunch of combos.if a person throws liek a 90 hit combo yuo should not be allowed to block it though.
did you do the video? I didnt think so, how would you know?
I just love this game - have to say it once in a while :) ...Im just thinking "wow" - so many people have watched this vid - this game rocks!
why did they get rid of cinder and chief thunder?
Nice skills! You had some close calls!! Wow what the hell is the greenish thing that Fulgore used on you? What is it used for?
Killer Instinct: Mega-Game my favourite!!!
Killer Instinct Gold: Mega-Game my favourite!!!
Killer Instinct 3...???
Im waiting for Killer Instinct 3...
...OH,please coming soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yeah, the are.
the arcade was KI2
when it was ported to the N64, the title changed the 2 into gold.
Mortal Kombat? Wow, I bet you're a big fan of Primal Rage too. Blood is so cool!
This makes me wanna cry, I used play this as a baby :(
@SwagByNature thanks for the comment :)
@JerseyHomeBoy I love that too :D
My strategy with Killer Instinct Gold:
1. Jump in with a fierce.
2. Press buttons like a fiend until something cool happens.
Me and my brother eventually used every Ultra and Ultimate in the game following this sacred technique. We never really beat the game on anything higher than normal, but it was fun.

Should totally be following up the combo as they come down. Those are linkages just thrown in the trash.
It's supposed to be a karate gi but because Jago fights evil on a regular basis it's been torn like hell.
@wayElite Rare is now owned by Microsoft. I doubt it would ever see a PS3 release. ;)
@HalSka8
the onine part for the "new killer instinct"
play around the world....ps3 network......xbox live.....will online
jago is awesome..you'd think he'd be part of future games because of his awesomeness..he's like a mix of ryu and rikimaru
@Oxyster7 oh okay diffently man we just gotta get this game on ps3 or xbox360
Excellent( Mr. Burns voice) it would have been perfection if you threw in a few Ultra's along with the Dragon burning thru a few fighters.
I got the game but I have busin out those combos that jago does in the game
You almost got owned by Orchid, but you never lost your cool. Good job!!
why did they have to stop making these games KI would of made a great series
i cant stop watching this, lol. Jago is in it, yay!
@HalSka8 makes sense though doesn't it
I had this game when I was a kid (You know!, when games were just games)
Jajaja, orchid almost owned you :P
What a great game, one of the best one along game's history. In this one my favorite char was Fulgore, a deadly machine >8)
KI 2 was in the arcades before it was ported over to N64 and changed to KI gold
Makes me wish they made some Downloadable Arcade game version of this I love 1 & 2 of KI they were Dope... If they made a special collectors edition or something like how they did with Street Fighter I would be so Happy...
This is a legendary videogame
I had a seizure because of Killer Instinct. Was awesome.
