"Mick Gordon is the new Composer for Killer Instinct, and has really outdone himself with the music for the upcoming game. At PAX Australia, KI fans were treated with a few audio samples of Character themes, the iconic theme song, and the versus screen music. Fans got an insight of what its like to compose music for Double Helix, and how Mick came to create the unique theme music for the characters. What was really awesome though, was that Mick recorded shouts, grunts and howls made by the audience, which will feature in the music of the new Killer Instinct.
The music for the first Killer Instinct was very iconic, Mick wanted to recreate the original theme, focusing on the key sounds and features that made it iconic, like its eerie sounding intro, to the guitar solos. He used the intro guitar riff as an example, and how by decreasing the tempo and highlighting the guitar, made the theme sound more aggressive. He also showed Maximilian’s reaction video to the E3 Killer Instinct announcement, explaining how he wanted the theme song to be quickly recognised."

"This year’s Comic-Con is the first chance for the general public to get their sweaty mitts on the new Xbox One in advance of its release this November. Microsoft has taken over a huge second floor ballroom at the Manchester Grand Hyatt nearby the San Diego Convention Center, and the results look pretty impressive. To the left, they have multiple Xbox One consoles running a handful of launch window titles, while the right side of the room is reserved for upcoming releases on the retiring Xbox 360."

So much for the X1 games running on PC's with titans in them.
