Rare finally revealing Killer Instinct 3?

Microsoft's press event at Europe should be revealed to the interwebs tomorrow while some stuff have leaked so far like Banjo-Kazooie 3 (now subtitled Nuts & Bolts) with platforming and lots of vehicles and Viva Pinata 2: Trouble in Paradise. It seems like that's all that Rare wants to reveal this week, but these pics I stumbled upon in this NeoGAF thread are interesting. Is this the inevitable Killer Instinct 3? Now I know the KI games weren't really great fighting games, but what they tried with it like Ultra Combos and finishers felt cool. The characters also were cool like favorites Fulgore, Jago, Orchid, and Glacius. Honestly, I won't mind a KI3 just because I'm curious how Rare would make this series relevant again. Then again, the majority doesn't want it to happen just in case they ruin the series with a new one.
