There is no new info on the actual game, but I thought this was pretty cool.

Following the report of their third quarter financial results, Midway revealed that Mortal Kombat 5 will be making an appearing[sic] this year on both the XBox and the PS2. Unfortunately, the game is not slated for the GameCube at this time. All 3 systems will be receiving Midway\'s Arctic Thunder, NFL Blitz 2002 and their new title, NHL Hitz 2002.

If this is true, this is great news!  I can\'t wait to see some gameplay footage of this game.  I\'m looking forward to it more than VF4 and DOA3.

"Unfortunately, the game is not slated for the GameCube at this time."  [sarcasm on]Can you see the shocked look on my face? :) j/k.

please don\'t hate me for it, but I never really liked the series, I mean, the finish him\'s were fun, but once you\'ve seen them you get the point, and they can only be funny once,
the game itself was too fast IMO

There are 5 ways for them to get me interested:

1) More Fatalitys and stuff like that
2) More Complex fighting
3) No more crappy blood
4) Blocking w/o L1, L2, R1, or R2 buttons
5) More characters



If they change this it will be an awesome fighter.

Yeah, I never really like MK either.  Some aspects were fun, but, bleh, just could never get into it.

I always was and always will be a StreetFighter man! ;)

I liked the early MKs but the last few were just too complicated to be enjoyable.  When you have to download a bunch of move lists, and tactics off the internet just to survive a couple of fights, the game has lost it\'s beauty.  Remember how simple MK1 and MK2 were - and yet... we used to sit around playing them for hours....

I liked the first 2 MK\'s..the rest sucked.
I liked the first few street fighters, but it got old.

those are, IMHO, dead fighters :(
Tekken and Virtual Fighter has taken their place (and they\'ll soon be dead and replaced, too, I bet!)

Mortal Kombat 2 was the best of the bunch IMO.

But as some say i don\'t have my own opipion, and just go with the crowd, thats completely wrong. I really wish they  have stopped at MK2 because the series is milked to far. MK2 was plenty, the move to 3d sucked major ass.

No way bro, I\'m a big fan of Mortal Kombat!  I think the best looking one was on the N64, Mortal Kombat 4. The DC and the PS was not as good.  I can\'t wait for the new 3D engine that MK5 will be using.  :D

I\'m an ex mk fan....

Tekken dances on the rotting corpse of MK, hahaha :) yeah Tekken forever

honestly I do look foward to this game If they dump the entire fighting engine, characters, button layout etc etc. Start over again and make it like mk2, with complex juggles, combos and charcater design. :)
