James Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 [color=indigo]Midway have finally released a shot of Mortal Kombat 5, to be available on all major next-gen consoles. The team has said that they want to "totally reinvent the genre". I personally loved the older MK games, but I didn't like MK4. So I really hope that MK5 proves to be a different experience. In any case, I've included a shot below for you to feast your eyes on. Nice, huh? :)[/color] [IMG]http://ps2media.ign.com/media/news/image/midway/mk1.jpg[/IMG] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 Hm... the graphics look really good but I hope it's not like a true 3d fighting game. So much of MK is based on projectiles which only really works in a "back-and-forth" fighter. Hopefully they'll be able to bring MK back to its former glory. BTW: My favorite character's Scorpion. -Adam theOtaku.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treble Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 Yeah in Mortal Kombat its mostly about Projectiles I guess Mortal Kombat is best to be in its 2-D form or make the charcters in 3-D and fight in a 2-D style world.Thats why I enjoy Mortal Kombat Trilogy best out of all the Mortal Kombat games.

James Posted August 17, 2001 Author Share Posted August 17, 2001 [color=indigo]Who here saw the Mortal Kombat movie? The second one was total crap...but I didn't mind the first one. Sure, it had no story, but it had a cool soundtrack and very nice effects... my favourite characters in the movie were Sub Zero and Shang Tsung. Remember the bit where Sub Zero freezes that dude at the start? Ahh...it was a golden moment. hehe :) [/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MK is a good franchise...it still has life left, as long as they do a GOOD game. Let's pray that MK5 is cool :) [/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/B][/QUOTE] [color=blue]Nope. In order to use that, I'd need to actually HAVE the game. lol Those pics come from Midway. I do have a program that allows me to take screenshots from regular PSOne games though. :)[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zanza Posted August 20, 2001 Share Posted August 20, 2001 Personally I loved MK4. I DIDN'T like MK3 and all those spin-off like games (MK3 Ultimate and stuff like that). But all the rest were great, and 5 looks good, but looks don't really add to the fun of a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omega_magnus Posted August 31, 2001 Share Posted August 31, 2001 I hope that we can enjoy the next game soon, with all our favourite characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
