Mortal Kombat HD Remake - Coming Soon?

Post by darthmunky »

Apparently, the first three MK games are getting bundled together into one HD game!

While that holds no interest to me, check out the sweet Bioshock Infinite trailer that it linked to http://www.giantbomb.com/ten-minutes-of-bioshock-infinite/17-3257/

The only way to deactivate the ray beam and fight back the vampire alien threat is with a complicated series of foot patterns on the device's control board that looks remarkably like a DDR pad. We will all praise this man for saving our lives and buy him a mountain of stuffed animals.

I would have loved it if Trilogy made it into the package... best MK of the series IMO

Yep, I'm excited about this release. But the bad news is that it's a PS3 exclusive. So I'll have to buy a PS3 first :?

I wouldn't bet on it being a PS3 exclusive. It just doesn't make a lick of sense when Sony's console isn't even close to being the dominating force of this generation. I simply can't imagine that there won't be a 360 version, at some point and in some form.

This may very well just be a "timed" exclusive.

I completely agree. It really does not make a lot of sense for any game to be exclusive to either the PS3 or the 360 since both systems have such similar capabilities that would make porting much easier. The Wii, understandably, is a whole different beast.

The timed exclusives like Assman mentioned seem to be becoming the norm in the industry. So let the PS3 get it first. I will wait for the 360 version with the bugs worked out and additional content. :D

Yeah. But Sony has been doing all the HD Remakes. In case you haven't noticed there hasn't been any of the 360.

Medal of Honor: Frontline is getting the HD remake treatment exclusively for the PS3. There's also rumors about Prince of Persia and Splinter Cell HD collections coming exclusively to the PS3.

Makes sense to me. *shrug*

This would be cool. Theres no way this won't drop on the xbox at some point. Not many people would go out and buy a ps3 just for this.
