Welcome to the third Mortal Kombat story on chud’s front page in less than a week. That’s almost as impressive a hat trick as the one featured in the trailer for the new Mortal Kombat, which boasts a return to the franchise’s 2D roots:
So Mortal Kombat’s bringing back the physics-defying, organ-splattering, Mom-enraging fatalities that made the series famous. This seems like a step in the right direction for the franchise, especially after Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe’s middling, sonorous wet fart. NetherRealm studios, formerly WB Games Chicago, is handling the development of the 9th Mortal Kombat game, which will feature co-op modes, tag-team battles, and 60-fps disembowelments.
Plan on it arriving some time in 2011 for the PS3 and 360.

Guarentee this trailer got released earlier than planned. The interwebs is buzzing with MK nostalgia ever since the "proof of concept" trailer came out. Strike while the iron's hot.
Ha! that looked like fun 🙂
Is this 1995? Man am I excited for some MK! Going to play MKII on the PS3 now.
Ever since Street Fighter IV came out, all I could think was this is what Mortal Kombat needs to do, 2D with flashy 3D animation in the Fatalities… shame the characters aren't that little bit more realistic looking (surely the tech is around)
I've been asking for this 3D visualization on a 2D plane ever since MK4.
When did wet fart become a critical standard?
