Finish Him! (for the last time??)

Will Midway suffer a Fatality?!?!!!

Hope not, they've made a ton of games over the years. They've also been responsible for the departure of most of my quarters growing up.

I heard the MK vs DC didn't do near as well as they hoped it would. So that game may very well end up being their Swan Song.

Well considering I hear that they neutered the MK characters for that MK vs. DC game it's no surprise that the fans kind of were put off. Something which I'm sure didn't help their already precarious situation.

Of all the video games from my childhood, I was the worst at MK...

i stopped caring after mk3. video game companies rise and fall. i don't have any particular attachment to them.

i didn't say i was happy about midway going tits up, but i won't lose sleep. someone else will step in and create the next 'omgwow!!1' game. if there's anything the 21st century world can't do without, it's distractions.

I guess I should add I never liked any of the MK games. The whole "memorize robotic combos or perish" gameplay never did it for me. Still sad to see them falling on hard times.
