Midway has just sent over some new screens for the next chapter in the Mortal Kombat series: Mortal Kombat: Armageddon for the Wii. What is sure to be more or less the same game you've played for years, now gets a Wiimote makeover. Still interested?
Scheduled to ship in April 2007 with the most complete roster ever, including more than 60 fighters from the entire Mortal Kombat® universe (past, present and future), a revolutionary Kreate-A-Fighter mode and Kreate-A-Fatality mode, plus a brand new Konquest mode and Endurance Mode, Mortal Kombat®: Armageddon™ promises to be the most complete, intensely lethal, fighting experience ever!

Wow, that was funny/weird
Scheduled to ship in April 2007 with the most rehashed roster ever, including more than 60 fighters from the entire Mortal Kombat® universe (48 of them forgettable in every way!), a busted Kreate-An-Uber mode and Dial-A-Fatality mode, plus a brand new Konquest mode and Endurance Mode, Mortal Kombat®: Armageddon™ promises to be the most broken, half-assed, fanboy-driven fighting experience ever!
I bought this on xbox. D'oh.
and I believe the developers mentioned you can use the classic controller if you don't like using the wiimote.
certainly looking forward to playing this, as since I completed zelda and wario ware, my wii is getting a bit dusty :(
I look forward to what this game's potential can be, but am I excited about it enough to buy it? nah.
I'm not a MK guy. I like Soul Caliber and Virtual Fighter.
Mainly for the E-Honda bitch slapping... That would be an instant orgasm.
Note: I don't have a Wii, but might have to get one if the could do something that funny.
Heres some kaks that are quite fun to use in MK:
Kratos
Jack Thompson (my favorite to fight with)
CL (from GTA:SA)
Robert Summa ;)
Samus aran (from Smash Brawl)
Mario (Ultra realistic version)
All that said, Mortal Kombat gets old quick, so I will just rent it.
Maybe I'm just nostalgic, but I don't think that this is a good move for the Mortal Kombat Series. My dorm is full of MK fanatics, and we didn't like armageddon as much as deception. Besides character choice and an awesome story mode, there were numerous issues, including hits that didn't count, etc.
Now with the Wii controller scheme, I don't think the game will even feel the same. Call me crazy, but fighting games are about button combos.
As a Wii owner, I guess I'll have to try it and see how it comes out, but I'm skeptical. MK needs to get back to its roots ><
Too bad killer instinct died. It kicked ass on the SNES.
Oh and Street Fighter easilys owns Mortal Kombat.
