Rare Tips New Games in Banjo?
4:00AM Owen Good | Is it guerrilla marketing when you’re doing it in your own game? Cranky Gamers UK noticed that Easter egg in Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, which declares we’ve got “new Killer Instinct, Battletoads and Jet Force Gemini games,” on the way. “Even Ghoulies 2!” Whoa. But then they say, “Oh, you’ll never believe that.” Screw it, I will. This qualifies as an announcement and I am committing Rare to this, even though there’s nothing on the Rare Web site yet, and a Killer Instinct sequel has long been involved in cat-and-mouse rumour games.

Rare Want Killer Instinct On XBLA
1:20PM Luke Plunkett | Speaking with 1UP, Rare’s Mark Betteridge was asked about the chances of us seeing more Rare games on Xbox Live Arcade now that the original Banjo Kazooie is up for download. Surprisingly/fortunately, Betteridge did not beat around the bush: Sure! It’s something that we’ve been looking at. It’s all about building a platform where we can do that stuff without impacting the newer things here. It would be great if we could get Killer Instinct coin-op on there. More »

Killer Soul Kalibur Fighter Brawl-gasm
6:40AM Michael McWhertor | One of the first Soulcalibur IV user created creations we were sent, Solid Snake and Raiden from Metal Gear Solid 2 felt like the first drop in the bucket of recreated classic characters. Here’s a torrent of them: Mario and Link; Sub Zero, Shao Kahn, Scorpion, and Liu Kang from Mortal Kombat; B. Orchid and TJ Combo from Killer Instinct; Blanka and Chun-Li from Street Fighter. They’re all in here. There’s even a few guest appearances from folks like Dr. Doom and Thor from the pages of Marvel Comics. Don’t ask us to explain the Skee-Lo soundtrack, though. We just work here. Thanks to Jeremy for the clip tip via Arcade Junkies. More »
Killer Instinct 3 Rumours Fresh From The Mill
9:00AM Michael McWhertor | This again? Yes, this again. The latest batch of rumours to come from EGM’s Quartermann dredges up one we’ve been hearing for as long as we can remember, one that pegs Rare hard at work on a new Killer Instinct. This one, dubbed Killer Instinct 3D: Death, Destruction and Doom, is said to bring the delightfully goofy fighting game that pits boxers against skeletal pirates, lizardmen against werewolves into the world of 3D.
