OXM UK - "Free-to-play! It's either the spark that will reignite an industry paralysed by "unbelievable" $60 RRPs, or the spark that will set the medium's pretensions to the status of art aflame, reducing all games to their commercial imperatives. Well, so I've heard."

This is how you support your first party games! Continued support after 10 years!
The Killer Instinct fans appreciated and the whole FG community celebrates!
Congrats goes to Matt, Mick, Adam and everyone at Iron Galaxy!
Tomorrow we fight together! I can´t wait!
I love KI (still play the old arcade version) but feel like the Xbox version is like a big intimidating chessboard with no easy way to instruct you to play chess.
The game is so deep in terms of little things to do that it makes Smash Bros melee look like a casual experience.
Honestly, doing a combo Breaker is punish/reward by itself but hey you can add a counterbreaker.
Here's what you also need to know

Iron Galaxy is celebrating the 10th anniversary of Killer Instinct by launching a new Anniversary Edition for Xbox and PC and an extensive patch several years after the latest update.
There isn't going to be any chance of this being played at tournaments unless it appears on all platforms like all fighting games.
A free-to-play fighting game? This was unheard of at the time, but Killer Instinct has proven it's not only doable, but enjoyable!
The first thing really should be to remove the XBL barrier because it's not a true F2P game if a sub barrier is needed. All you should need is an internet connection.....
One way is all you need, stop charging a subscription to use the ethernet connection and they will work just like they do everywhere else.
they could start by actually making it free to play.
but of course free is a four letter word at ms.
i know it literally is, but, ah, you know what i mean. ^_^
Free and Xbox?? That's an oxymoron! See Netflix pay wall!
