    I watched this quite a few times now just had to leave a comment to tell you how amazing this is. For us 40+ year olds growing up in high school in the early 90s playing this game at the arcades is mega nostalgia for us. KI was THE arcade game that dominated the scene back then. Hearing the theme music and the “ultraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa combooooooo” and “c-c-combo breakerrrr” was just mesmerizing. Your take on this theme was amazing, I love every note and touch you played. It accents everything perfectly, and then the very end riffs - got us all in the feels my friend. That character select music is so brutal, this is a 10/10 my friend. Bravo!

    Sometimes I wonder how much those games and soundrack did actually shaped our music tastes... I didn't even knew what metal was, back then... and now is part of my life for the last 15 years. That, Zelda, and Banjo & Kazooie. Gawd

    This is by far best guitaring I have heard in a long time. Truly exceptional. There is lot of melody and pathos in your shredding. Simply outstanding. The part at 1:48 took me deep inside. Very instrospective. 👌👌👌👌🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

    One of the great things about YT is seeing the amount of KI fans that comment. I didn't know many people that played the game growing up. This theme, along with many others in the 90s was what got me into guitar. It's great that Andy James grew up with the game too. Awesome cover by the way!!

    Especially from minute 2:27, when you really get started, gives me so much strength. Thank you for that!

    Saw this and clicked immediately. I remember having the "Killer Instinct" CD that came with the SNES game. One of the best game soundtracks ever, and you did an amazing job with it. Any chance to get a metal version of Sabrewulf's original theme lol

    I did not know how much I needed that lead out to the champ select riff. \m/ \m/
    This and Little V Mills iteration are my hands down favorite versions of what is to me the most epic and iconic metal gaming theme song of all time.

    I was 10yrs old, got admitted to hospital due to an asthma attack back in 94, I had only just got Killer Instinct as gift and didn't want my brothers to play it, so took the cartridge with me. Once I recovered I had to stay in kids ward for a few days for observation, to my surprise there was a games room on the ward for all the sick kids. I told the other kids that I had Killer Instinct, man we played for hours, winner stayed on, such a core memory for me...
