Sorry but I couldnt find any info on this. Is there any chance MK: Armageddon is coming out on the 360, even as just a higher resolution texture version of what will be on current gen consoles?

Id rather not buy an Xbox again just to play this game but I probably would =p
 
Well, it might not be released specifically for the 360 but it could very well be made backwards compatible.

Eh? How do you make something backwards compatible when it is being designed for the current gen consoles and not the next gen ones? It would be more like forwards compatible...

Don't have the answer to your question, Ebm, and the way things work at Microsoft, you'll be lucky if it is. The MK team I doubt is going to put the work into making it playable on both systems since it's mostly the emulator in the 360 that plays the xbox games and not the games being made for the 360, or so I thought.
 
Honestly, I'm quite shocked that Midway is developing this ultimate of MK's for the the PS2 and XBox and not for the next generation systems. Aside from the technological and graphical supremacy of the new systems such as 360, it almost seems like a hinderance for the series from a marketing standpoint, as the old systems are destined to go the way of the dinosaur rather quickly as waves of games are produced for the new systems. Simply from a longevity standpoint, you'd think they would develope MKA for a next gen platform, not an obsolete one. With that in mind, perhaps they will be working towards an updated version of MKA for the new systems, or perhaps they will take it a step further and piggyback MKA with another MK title for the new system(s). Guess we'll have to wait and see. Bummer. :(
