Isn't Rockstar going under too?

It's like EA is going to buy Take2 and Rockstar or something...

EA or Activison would be more financially sound choices for the MK team.

Financially sound, but more mediocre choices than Rockstar or Arc System Works.

EA's got a history of doing nothing new. At all.
Activision ain't far behind.

The risks and rewards are hard to balance. All I could do is pray for the best.

EA is an evil corporation that gives no credit to the games creators.

ARC System is a Japanese company, and they're quite small, so that's pretty much not gonna happen. As for R*...I'm not sure they'd be able to handle it financially.

As for EA, you apparently forgot original games like Mirror's Edge, Skate, Dead Space, Army of Two, etc. The also publish Vale's titles, such as the Orange Box and Left 4 Dead.

And why are you so concerned about a company who does nothing "new"? I thought you wanted another MK game. An 8th MK would be as much a rehash as anything else they'd bring out sequel-wise, sports titles not withstanding.

Mortal Kombat would look the exact same as in FireQueen's drawings.

Even if the MK team went to another company? Uh...no. The art designers would more than likely keep a certain aesthetic going.

I ment if they went to Rockstar and it was a joke, a play on words if you will. Not everyone is serious 100% of the time

Yeah... no... not at all. We don't need 'Mortal Kombat: Gangsta Style."

I can see it now, each character starts out as a low character, fighting other charcaters to boast up their rankings, such as Thug, Mobster, Gangsta, Pimp... or something like that...

Then some nut job will create a patch allowing people to secretly access a sluttly sex scene between two MK characters creating nothing but controversy and titling this Hot... Hot... something....

Each character will look more thuggish than what they usually look like... and when you beat the last boss, you control every gang out there...


All of this ^ All of this was just thought up in five seconds, it's not even to be taken seriously, so yeah... I was just picturing what happened if rockstar did buy out the company and "trashed" the game.

But with seriousness, no, Rockstar shouldn't buy at all.

lol...GTA: SA is pretty much the stereotype of all Rockstar games, isn't it?

If it were to happen...it couldn't be that bad.

Manhunt had some of that MK-Style gore, it could actually end up quite nice.

Not if you look at Midnight Club, Bully, May Payne, Smuggler's Run, Oni, and R* Table Tennis.

Well, a GTA MK game would be rather...odd, to say the least, but an exploration style action-rpg in the vein of MKD's Konquest mode would be cool.

Actually, I'd probably mix elements of MKSM and MKD's Konquest together.

Sorry, I don't like your idea.













I think EA Sports should buy them instead.

I'd call it "Toasty".

I agree with those saying Rockstar shouldn't buy MK. I don't recall offhand any fighting games - if any - they've made. While they deal with "mature" subject matter regularly (I hesitate to label constant references to "69" and so forth mature. tongue), they don't seem to have the background to make a fighting game. Though I imagine they would at least be able to carry on a story well enough.
