Okay So i made a perfect copied music midi for this score and this looks a bit like a theme , but its not that professional as there are no accents or any other emphasizers.
anyways if you want to hear what it sounds like then here is a link everyone

It reads like game music from 2 or maybe 3 generations ago. Midi style *shudder*, like Road Rash or something. I can’t remember what the KI music was like but I imagine it’s something similar.

I really hope this is fake
The ‘composer’ has opted out of using more than one note per bar. In fact it has the same note repeated 82 times from bar 9 to 17! not very melodic.
it goes from displaying 4 bars per line to 3 bars per line, untidy formatting.
Also would expect what instrument this sheet is for to be written at the top, eg 2nd violin.

That was probably knocked up on some compostion software in about 10 minutes. I’m going stick my neck out and say FAKE.

The original arcade game was awesome (way back in 94), the Nintendo port wasn’t. I think I played Killer Instinct 2 on the N64 and it was passable but not a patch on the arcade version. Just didn’t translate well, unlike SF/MK. It was notable for it’s ridiculous *massive number* hit combos. The characters on screen were far bigger in the arcade version (much like that original Street Fighter that wasn’t Street Fighter, if you know the one I mean).

I guess a new version could work, but it’d have to be pretty damn good to rival Soul Calibur IV and probably the new Street Fighter.

I guess we ought to get someone who knows about music to look at it, and tell us how it goes. Looks to me like it’s pretty repetitive.

Also, I never played the other games in the series. I guess nobody ever recommended them to me.
