This forum was opened in 2007 and after nearly 16 years needs to be retired. The forum software is long out of date and has become progressively harder to patch in order to run on newer hosting software. I have done what I can to get the forum up in a read-only view, but posting will remain broken. A few old members still hang out on Discord if you'd like to stop by to say hello.
Thanks for the memories. -Lhurgoyf

Holy crap, Killer Instinct was freaking awesome on the arcade and SNES. 50-64 player Halo 3 will end up being huge. Can't wait for the Sonic and Forza 2 demos to hit. I'm still waiting on the Tiger Woods '07 demo to come out. I thought that was supposed to be on the marketplace like three weeks ago? Blastid!
Hopefully these rumors are true. Thanks for the heads up.

I'll be damned if Killer Instinct ends up being fake, haha. I haven't heard anything about that game even being made, so I have a good feeling that I got my hopes up when I read it. And if it is fake, then I'll give credit to the person who made it up. That's one of the last games I would think of to make a return. I haven't heard of Killer Instinct in years.
A Sonic demo seems possible. That game is coming out in mid-November, right? Forza 2, I highly doubt. Last I heard, it isn't coming out this year and they aren't even close to it being finished yet. Maybe they'll have a playable track and such on the floor.
I mostly see X06 being aimed at Gears, Halo 3, the HD-DVD addon and some other games. Shit we already know about, but we'll see new content.
