Plain zero! Etc.
If you’re a bloke and you did any significant gaming in the 90s, then there’s a good chance that you liked Mortal Kombat at some point (read: at some point before it went 3D).
Well, Warner Bros (who now own all of the old Midway IPs) have just released a trailer for Mortal Kombat 2010 (there is no 2010 in the title but we don’t want to confuse anyone). As expected it shows all your favourite characters in strictly non-gameplay footage. So that’s not great. Neither is the soundtrack which has been provided by post-nu-metal ear-botherers Disturbed (if there’s a worse singer in metal we’ve yet to hear them).
Despite all that, we’re still excited. Capcom proved with Street Fighter IV that these games can come back and still have an impact and, if they fix the uppercut move, maybe Mortal Kombat can impress in 2010.
