I was just wondering, does anybody know of any Christmas themed games for the Xbox 360? I don't mean it has to be a game involving Santa Claus or anything like that.... I'm just talking about a game with a winter Christmas kind of feel. Like Diddy Kong Racing had a few winter tracks with...

I was just wondering.... Are there any characters that you find yourself not using because you think their fatalities are lame? You may like the character otherwise, but you find yourself not choosing him or her because you just don't want to see the lame fatalities? Conversely, are there any...

I've always been a metal fan. I remember when I was a kid was when everyone thought metal music had backwards messages. I would crack open cassette tapes and switch the reels around and listen to my music backwards hoping to hear Satanic messages. It made the music dangerous, scary, and fun...

It did for me. I remember when the original MK came out. I had worked at a mini golf course and arcade throughout high school, but I decided that my first summer home from college I was going to try something else, so I worked at a movie theater. The manager from the arcade called me and told...

Don't get me wrong, I love the fatalities in MK9. But upon playing MKII again, I realized that is the game that got the fatality presentation down perfectly. I'm not talking about the fatalities themselves, I'm talking about the presentation. The way the music crescendo hit when it was time...

Ok guys, I know this has nothing to do with MK, but since the original Hydro Thunder was made by Midway, I just thought you might be interested. Last night I wandered into a bowling alley and saw something I have never seen before, a game called H2Overdrive. I was trying to figure out how it...

I haven't seen anything reported on this game from E3. That must mean NRS knows that it would get slammed by the press or it isn't close enough to completion to have anything to show. Either one of these scenarios is a bad sign, I think. Have you seen any press on this game from E3?

What in the world do you think is next? It would be hard to just make a new game with more fighters and backgrounds because pretty much everyone we want is in this one. What more can they possibly do? I think they're going to have to do like what they did in MK4, where they keep a few classic...

This has probably been answered a zillion times.... But I was just wondering, remember that animation of Shao Kahn putting on his mask and Raiden yelling before launching into a fight with him that they showed as a trailer when the game was first announced? It looked pretty highly produced, so...

I don't know why, but I just remembered something I read years ago. Some of you may be old enough to remember National Game Review and Old Man Murray, I think I read it there. Anyway, they were making fun of video games in some way, and the writer made some kind of reference to the new Mortal...

Ok, so I know my dog is weird. For some reason, she loves Mortal Kombat. She pretty much leaves me alone whenever I play anything else, but she seems to really like this game. I don't know why. She has to run up to the screen, watch all the action, and bark. It's strange. Does anybody...

I was so hyped for this game because Boon and team promised a return to MK and MKII style roots with no preset combos, just people figuring out which moves can be strung together. Then I plug the game in and go to training and it shows me how to do some frigging DIAL A COMBOS!!!!!! I thought...

First, I'd like to congratulate you. I fully understand where you are coming from. It's nice to play a brand new game with a totally clean slate. I kind of wish I could too, but I just can't resist spoilers. I also don't really care so much about knowing what fatalities look like, to me the...

Mortal Kombat is an extremely special game to me. Here's why: 1992 was my sophomore year of college. I had played games on my NES and Genesis throughout high school and visited local arcades a lot. However, back in those days, most people didn't even have TVs in their dorm rooms, nevermind...

Alright, this question has probably been asked, but it would take hours of searching to find it. Does anyone know if there are any extra TE versions being shipped? I mean, will each and every Gamestop and Best Buy receive only as many TEs as have been preordered, or will they receive a few...
