MK HD Kollection

Re: November quickly approaching

Okay, okay... not to beat a dead horse, but I've seen several comments on here and other message boards regarding the legitimacy of this game. I will be the first to point out the obvious: nothing is official since there has been no confirmation from Warner Bros or Netherrealm Studios.... yet. Now, with that being said, I saw a video on YouTube a while back from GamesCon conducted by the guys at MKUniverse.lu (a German MK site, I believe). Anyway, I remembered that in the interview, they ask directly about the rumored HD Kollection and get some interesting reactions from Hans Lo and Ed Boon. Today, after reading more comments saying the game is and was never real, I decided to look up that video. Here's a link (with proper time stamp): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q2ZBDH8RZ-g#t=04m54s

Watch both Hans' and Ed's reaction when asked about the HD Kollection. Not only that, but listen closely to their comments (Ed's specifically). I'm not saying it'll be out on the 16th, but there's more to it than merely being a rumor. Anyhow, thought it was an interesting part of the very long interview.
 
Re: November quickly approaching

So basically, for some weird reason, they're just plain old not allowed to talk about it? That's odd... but okay.

Either that, or they just wanna be super duper secret about it... sorta like how they were with reptile in MK1, the rumours about him being in the game at that time were HUGE, until he was finally revealed
 
Re: November quickly approaching

Maybe WB has forbid them to speak about it by fear of overshadowing MK 9. They are putting alot of money & time in this last MK 9.

lol Amazon just send me an email about MK HD Kollection confirming its release...

Well just that it'll be available November 18th, if I wish to pre-order it...
 
Re: November quickly approaching

cool, lets hope they got it right. Two more weeks...got mine pro-ordered at my local gameshop also. No change in release date so far (kinda weird typing this knowing the game isn't officially announced, o well).

Interesting, any chance you could post a picture of the entire email? If not, that's cool (I can't read French anyway, lol). Also, is there a page to it on your country's Amazon page? I just searched the US Amazon site and there is still no listing.

Sure! I'll post few sites (notice they all have 18/11/2010 as release date):

AMAZON
Promogame & Xtremgame
Cdiscount

Every beginning of each month, Amazon sends me a mail with the new releases of PS3 games

Re: November quickly approaching

Wow, very cool. It'll be interesting to see just how long this stays up. If it's not pulled within a few days, perhaps this is really going to happen. I do have an issue with there not being any box art listed for a game due in 2 weeks, though. Also, there is still no listing on Amazon.com (US).
 
Re: November quickly approaching

The GameStop website still doesn't list it, and the U.S. www.amazon.com has NO listing for it either.:-(
I guess I'll just have to check with GameStop, when I get out of work.
 
Re: November quickly approaching

Box art being shown would only further confirm the rumors, which WB doesn't want to do yet. There was a leaked pic of the box art by JeuxVideo more than a month ago. They released the picture with the Prince of Persia Collection box art. Most likely this will be it.

I think that it will be released on the 16th (US) with it being announced on the same day or only a few days before. Or it is being delayed until either December/January or after MK9. But it is real and will be coming. We just don't know when. Like Patrick said, it probably is being developed by Backbone or someone else, and not NetherRealm Studios. So NR has no say on it and is not allowed to talk about it, until the game developer and WB are ready.

I've seen that leaked box art before, but if Amazon was taking preorders on a game set to be released in 2 weeks, you'd think they'd have included the box art on the page. Regarding the leaked image, I hope that is the official cover, looks awesome. At this point, I guess we remain in "Wait and See" mode.

I remember watching this, and I think their lack of answers should say it all for the validity of this release. It's real.

So basically, for some weird reason, they're just plain old not allowed to talk about it? That's odd... but okay.

Maybe they don't want it overshadowing the attention for MK9. By including a Demo they achieve that perfect balance of OMG MKHD REMAKE!!!! OMG MK9 DEMO!!!!
 
Re: November quickly approaching

Just noticed that Overstock.com has the HD Kollection listed now. Didn't see it before, but I'm not actually sure when it was added. Still nothing at Gamestop or Amazon (US).

http://www.overstock.com/Books-Movies-Music-Games/PS3-MORTAL-KOMBAT-HD-ARCADE-KO/5246702/product.html?AID=10654383&PID=1572286

The website says that it's expected to release on November 17th.
I guess that's a silver lining in the clouds.

I just wonder how long it'll be, until the take it off the website. :-|

Re: MK Arcade Collection in November (?)

My first post here:

I just pre-ordered the mk arcade kollection at a local store Nedgame (www.nedgame.nl). They always have games before the release date, and in this case they will have the game on the 15th instead of the 16th. I also send them an email asking if they can verify if this game is really coming, since many fans have doubts. Just send the mail so im still waiting for an answer:)

Also I haven't seen the game for pre-order there before, which could mean they just added it or I missed in my past searches. Anyway, im really curious to what they have to say. They have never failed me in the past.

EDIT: They have already answered saying there is alot of mystery around this game indeed. So I'll guess we will just have to wait for 15 november!
