Posted: Thu Apr 29, 2004 9:45 pm Post subject: NEWS: New German GamrPro info, GI Boon interview + more |
|
| |
There are 3 new updates to report today.
First is an exclusive interview with Ed Boon and John Podlasek from Game Informer Online. The interview talks about both Midway Arcade Treasures 2 and Mortal Kombat: Deception. Perhaps the most important information from the interview is the confirmation that the MK 'Treasures' (MK1, MK2 & MK3) will be direct Arcade ports.
| Quote: | BB: The games that you’re bringing to Treasures, are they going to be straight ports from the consoles or are they going to be the original arcade games?
EB: I believe that they’re the original arcade versions, I mean exactly the same versions, like emulating or MAME. |
The interview also goes on to talk about the online freatures of MKD for Xbox Live. And sadly there might not be any downloadable content.
| Quote: | BB: Are you guys planning any downloadable content?
EB: Probably not in this version. We were dying to do something like a downloadable background or character, but the task of getting both the Xbox and PS2 online and all these modes was just a ton of content. We kind of had to draw the line on downloadable content. |
Also, Ed mentioned that there will be about 10 playable characters featured for the E3 Demo.
| Quote: | BB: Do you know how many characters will be playable in the E3 version?
EB: Around 10. |
Be sure to check out TMK come E3 as we will have exclusive content and updates right from the E3 floor.

Thanks to Sub-Zedox for the heads up.

Secondly! The german edition of GamePro magazine has exclusive content on MKD. Although I don't have my hands on the magazine as of yet I can report that there is yet another trailer on the DVD and a new Scorpion render is featured on the cover page. There is also an interview with Ed Boon in the magazine. TMK will have scans and the new trailer up hopefully up by tomorrow.
________
And third, Gamepro (US) online (www.gamepro.com) is reporting that Summer Redstone (VIACOM) has confirmed his intentions to buy out Midway Games. What this will mean for future Midway games (including MKD) has yet to be seen.
| Quote: | Redstone is already the single largest shareholder with 49.3 percent of the shares, and intends to increase his holding to at least 60 percent, gaining control of the company.
With Redstone taking over the company, he has promised positive changes, telling Reuters at a conference, "You will see very soon an enormous infusion of great creative talent to Midway, and I mean very soon." |

Let's hope his costume will be altered latter one. Or at least he should have a better second costume.

I cant either. Seeing him in a rubberband thong would be better than that costume..

Actually with the armors he looks different but otherwise his face got some good glare. He does not need armore he can fight a whole army by opening his skull skin and go for it you know I mean.  _________________
