Hopefully this leads to the first good entry into the series since MKII. Too bad about Midway though, they used to be good.

its not a comparison.. but considering the last time we had a KI title was over 10 years ago- and Rare is now M$'s baby, I think purcahsing MK might be a good idea for ninty. with no SC,tekken,DOA, VF or SFIV to speak of- this would be a good idea.

Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd.

5 THINGS I'd like to see before i knock out:

a. a AAA 3D sonic title

b. a nintendo developed game that has a "M rating"

c. redesgined PS controller

d. SEGA back in the console business

e. M$ out of the OS business

The series won't be as cool without blood.

Because Eternal Darkness definitely had no blood in it......

So you played Eternal Darkness? Cool, did you get to the part where you get a sense of humor?

I think he was hit by a fireball flipping him upside down only to fall of the edge of the screen beforehand.

Ah Montana, you never fail to show exactly why you SHOULDN'T be a mod. Attempting to insult a member of the site, well done.

Yay!

EA'll probably buy it, and miraculously make it worse. Capcom don't want it. Namco have two fighting series already.

This is extremely sad. Regardless of whether you like Mortal Kombat or not, there is no denying that this is one of the biggest franchises in fighting game history. Let's hope that someone doesn't make it even worse. Poor Midway. This is a real act of desperation on their part to try to stay afloat.
