A Coversation That Took Place During Development

While Other Ocean were making this game and (presumably) testing it this conversation took place:

Hey, that sounds like some audio cut out there, was Scorpion supposed to say something when he threw his spear?

I dunno man, are you sure?

Yeah, he sounds like he was about to say something but it cut out.

Don't worry about it man, it's probably just a grunt or something, just move on.

I'm not sure man, it could be important. There's a lot of people that loved these old games, they might notice something missing.

Don't be ridiculous, you think some words from an old game are important to a bunch of 40 year old virgin still living in his parent basement? Get real.

I'm still not sure, I think we should take 30 seconds to verify this.

C'mon man you're being obsessive. Remember, these games are 15 years old. You think all the nerds out there remember every single little line from these old games? Of course not. They've probably forgotten. Trust me, these games are so old you could completely take Jerry Cage out of the game and no one will notice, it's just one little line of dialogue, trust me, doesn't matter.

Ok, you're probably right ...

...

...

Have you noticed there's no music in this level?

Ok, now who's being obsessive?



<end dramatization>


Honestly, the mind boggles out how such major things weren't picked up. I wonder if this game was even tested, it can't have been. If this game was tested how can so many problems have been found within minutes of it being released? I was half expecting the words "HIM FINISH" at the end of a round game.

What about:

Hey, have you noticed that the game plays in slow motion online?

Yeah, I did, and?

Well shouldn't we do something?

Look, do you want to get sushi or not?

Sure, why not.
 
Until we have confirmation and proof of this conversation being a rumor, I'm assuming its true...lol

In all honestly, they should've hooked up directly with TRMK and let the fans help them with this piece of garbage we received

Or maybe like... "Nah, they'll just think we added in a bullet time feature...
yeah like in Midway Presents Stranglehold!" :P
 
Wait is the "Get over here!" line missing in one of the games?
I've been playing UMK3 mostly since I dled it, but I didnt play Scorpion so if it is I couldn't note it.

Why do you think it is garbage? i don't see anything wrong with it, other than it being incredibly hard.

It's incredibly hard until you learn all all the tricks to beating the AI then it's not so bad btw. Especially MK2 and 1... UMK3 on the other hand... I would totally agree with you I really only mostly beat it with cheap tricks.

I take it you are new to the old Mortal Kombats?
 
Sadly, that's probably EXACTLY how those conversations took place...Looks liked Ed and co. have reverted back to their lazy midway days and just released some piece of crap without putting any work or effort into it,. I mean did they even play the gems before they released them? They spoiled us with MK9 and then we fell for them releasing these old games. They built up our trust in them and then they pretty much said F#&K you to all us MK fans. I fell for it. i guess i reverted back to my midway days of just buying what ever they put out there..
