With the release of Mortal Kombat: Armageddon nearing for the Wii (due out later this month), CB Games thought they'd get one last crack at finding out what makes this game tick. So they had a Q&A with the Producer for Mortal Kombat: Armageddon, Shaun Himmerick. They wanted to find out more about the combo system while using the Wii-mote and whether not this is the very last Mortal Kombat game.
Blood, guts, chess and cooking videos, it can only be the 6th generation Mortal Kombat games. Join us as we reminesce about MK classics.
I loved Deadly Alliance and Deception. I literally grew up with Mortal Kombat, and have probably owned every game in the series at one point or another. I actually enjoyed Armageddon too, despite the fact that they made a lazy fatality alternative. The fighter create mode was fucn, and I'm not afraid to admit that I played the hell out of the racing mode.
I haven't played any since the 4th game. I loved the first 4 and would play them all time in arcades. I want to get Mortal Kombat 11 once the complete edition drops.
Mortal Kombat: Armageddon felt like an end to everything the series had been building towards for many years, literally funneling every character – from elder gods to goofy guest stars – into a massive meat grinder, letting that bloody paste congeal before rebooting the franchise half a decade later.
The last Klassic Kombat to me was Mortal Kombat Trilogy, before the art style changed. Klassic Kombat was 2d not 3d too imo
I agree. UMK3 was the last great MK game(before MK9) and Trilogy was a nice send off before the series started to suck when it went 3d with 4.
If they didn't goof with getting experimental with the fatalities in this one it could have easily been the best. That fighter roster was awesome
Mortal Kombat hasn’t been the same for me ever since that piece of crap they call deadly alliance came out. That gameplay was slow as hell and they killed my favorite character lui kang.
MK1: masterpiece
MK2: masterpiece
MK3: good
MK4: awesome
MK deadly alliance: crap
MK Deception: okay
MK Armageddon: trash
MK vs DC: okay
MK9: good
MKX: got boring after I beat the story mode
I never got into 3D fighting games. The mk 3D era were the only ones I ever played. I miss the konquest story modes and the Shaolin monk games. The 3D brawler type of mini game would be welcomed with open arms. The weird mini games were great as well. Mk9 has some cool distractions in the challenge tower. I hope more of that stuff shows up in mk11.
Lots of hidden secrets and hints all point back towards the Mortal Kombat Armageddon game, released way long ago. Following the actual MK9 plot, we could be leading up to another recreation of MKA
As long as there is no BS universal fatality system then it will be gladly welcomed.
too bad the basic moves havent been basic since mk4 ..i miss the basic .. sweep, uppercut, backspin kick..etc.. being universal
I still don't understand why they haven't made a sequel to shaolin monks or a remastered edition. The gameplay was so smooth and fun, the boss fights were so intense and unique to one another.
Best gow clone last gen IMO and well that's saying a lot.

Enough with MKA. Give us info about MK8.
I haven't played Mortal Kombat since the PlayStation introduced me to Tekken a long, long time ago, but with no Tekken for the Wii I'm actually looking forward to this one. Hopefully the controls are spot on & it doesn't look like an N64 port.
