Mortal Kombat for the 21st century

<< < (4/4)

McTaggart:
It'd surprise me if there wasn't a new Mortal Kombat game. There hasn't been a better time to make a fighting game since the nineties and all the current ones are very japanese. I think the problem though is that all the people who played MK back when it was fresh have grown up and gotten over gratuitous gore and violence and I don't it will have nearly the same effect now that gore is everywhere and you don't have to sneak off to a bowling alley and drop a bunch of quarters to get it.

MrBlu:
There is going to be a new MK game. Boon said that he's aiming for M-Rated for the next one.

EDIT::

BAD NEWS EVERYONE!!!

J:
i'm actually somewhat interested in this. i can't say it looks good, but as a shlock horror/action movie it could really work. now i never really followed the games (more of a street fighter guy), but it looks like they're trying something diffrent with the franchise, and i'd like to see where they can take it. at the least, i'd like to see what the pseudo-realistic/non-mystical version or raiden is like.

the thing is, that fighting games are not really great story mediums anyway, so most don't really make the effort, and that leaves very little to work with in an adaption. this is why previous attempts
have turned out poorly (though raul julia was an awesome bison). just starting from whole cloth and using the original for inspiration seems like a good way to go.

think of a cross between bloodsport and planet terror.

Blue Kitty:
As if hearing your prayers, a new game has been announced

JD:
Slick video
