One "good" game.  MKII.  They've been living off one good game for almost 20 years.

It would be a real shame if EA grabbed this one.

It'll be interesting to find out what happens but I doubt anybody can make this work on next gen.

The best way forward for this game would be to release a port of the second edition for next gen console stores and then really shake it up into something formidable when they have more time.  It seemed to work for StreetFighter although I'm not convinced that MK has any life left in it.

MK 2 was overrated. MK Ulti 3 is the best. The 3d games were cool and fun. Hope somebody great buys it. Like Capcom, Insomniac, Naughty Dog, or Konami.

I have EA stock.  Trust me, they are in no position to make a move like that.

 Hopefully this'll be a platform from which someone can breathe a bit of life into a stale franchise.

@4 You took my thoughts. EA is like the Wal-mart of the gaming Industry.

@16 That would be cool because Capcom would do the series justice and we could possibly get that Street Fighter vs Mortal Kombat game many of us have dreamed about for years.

capcom getting mk should be the best bet...

as said before, mk vs street fighter.... could it get any better?
or a new mk in sf4 style (but with good faces...)
