Killer Instinct classic! Without the original, there would BE no 2013 KI! 🙂
ALL HAIL BEANLAND.
Seriously??? Who are the two that voted for the game boy version lmao… I really like the KI3 updated main theme, really has some intensity. I had to vote for the original KI though, I used to get a shiver down my spine walking by the KI cabinet, some great guitar riffs. I also loved B.Orchids original theme song “Killer”, it was the birth of electronic music for me!
Ki3 definitely is the heaviest and is great and I almost said ki3 but honestly ki classic is hands down the best. It sounds faster and has an eerie sound to it that is just amazing. Not dissing the ki3 guitar but ki1 sounded more natural and not forced, kind of like hearing someone cover a really good song. So yea ki1, ki3 is by far the best cover ever made though and suits ki3
Original KI most definitely!! it still sounds awesome after so many years, The xbox one version is second in my opinion but is still a great job but not fantastic like the original, The simple fact to me it gets annoying the longer you listen to it, KI gold then game boy.
Not heard it in years, but the KIgild versions lead guitar is surprisingly underwhelming
One, Arcade, Game Boy, N64.
I’m doing this in order. I say KI13 first hands dwn no debating lol, KI classic second, KI N64 third, KI game boy last.
Most definitely Killer Instinct 2013 Theme
KI Classic without hesitation.
