Kenneth Alan Lobb (also credited as Ken Lobb, KAL, and K. Lobb) is an American video game designer formerly employed by Taxan USA Corp., Namco Hometek, and Nintendo of America, and currently employed by Xbox Game Studios as Creative Director. He is best known as co-creator of the Killer Instinct series. A weapon in GoldenEye 007, the Klobb, was named after him due to last-minute copyright issues, and became notorious amongst gamers for its lackluster abilities. Despite this, Lobb stated that it "ended up having a nice impact on me, personally".
