Judge approves Midway sale to Warner Bros.

God Help Midway! We Need a MK game that has a Great Story and Awesome Game Play.

I Wish Li Mei was back in MK9!

Yes! MK9 will be made!

lets hope the next MK is game is good

Not bad, I approve of this ^_^

they may release a mk movie

A solid purchase.

Considering WB sucks as bad or WORSE as Midway, their games will still suck hard.

Doesn't really matter... Mortal Kombat hasn't been the same for many years now. WB will make it ever worse though in an effort to achieve an "E" rating... :(

DUBAYAH B! Midway has done some masterful things (a few generations to go). Here's to hoping that Midway will start making great games again. *raises glass*

that's good i liked MK VS DC Universe it had a cool storyline too it and was nice to play it was a fresh idea to the table. but to see them going back to old roots is a good idea as well. MK Armageddon was not too bad it was ok but MKVSDC Universe i thought was better

***** now mortal kombat gonna suck ass form the worlds most brutal game to the worlds gayest game what next epic losses the right of gears to some ***** company

So, how long before Warner Bros. gets Infograms to re-obtain all of Atari that they sold off in 1984? Then what? Take on Apple with the Atari Falcon Cell version? (Only really old Atari computer users will get that one.) Or release a new version of the Jaguar? This is WB buying their old company back.

@MVCFreak Pick up a copy of Gotham City Sirens at a comic book shop for Harley Quinn in a schoolgirl outfit.

@Zerobeam Time Warner is one of the biggest publishers of adult content: gangster rap, Vertigo/WildStorm comics, Steven Seagal movies, etc. Are the R rated movies Terminator 3 and 4 "family friendly"?

Warner Bros. seems like one of those "family" companies, wonder if Midway is still gonna be shooting for that "M" rating for the next Mortal Kombat game...or maybe it'll be MK vs. Looney Tunes universe

I would luv to see Harley Quinn,Poison Ivy,Black Carnary,Zantana,Jade,Sindel,Millena and Tanya in Mortal Kombat Vs. DC Universe 2!

Let's get a new Psi-Ops game going, that was the sweetest game no one played. You could suck peoples brains out and make their heads explode then set em on fire and throw em 100 yards at another enemy. It was freakin sweet.

the problem began when they're started to hire more and more people and didn't wanted to let go of people who's been with the company for years, in the end no matter how much they made, it still wasn't enough. Either work with what you got, or fire those that aren't needed and hire new blood. You can't make everyone happy, in the video game business, no job lasts forever!

its good

I want to see MK rise from the ashes (once more)

Just bring me a decent bloody MK game and a Dark knight like movie for Mortal kombat......

I do not want to see the end of Mortal Kombat, I still remember my jaw dropping in the arcades when Sub Zero ripped off someones head. I hope they make atleast one more mature MK and return to the roots that made it the game it was. What Street Fighter 4 did, new look same classic gameplay with some up to date tweaks. Just looking forward to some simple fun gameplay and fatalities to make my jaw drop again.

Amen deuketc! MK turned into a steaming pile of poo when it went 3D. And like leeko_link noted. Armadgeddon and MK vs DC Universe turned that pile of poo into a mountain. Man mk vs dc was horrible.

Glad to see Midway made it out pretty good. :)

Seems good.

Ed Boon probably already confirmed that the next Mortal Kombat game would return to an Mature rating title. How it would look and playout is still not known. Here hoping it doesn't flop like MK: Armageddon and MK vs. DC Universe.

the only thing that's going to come out of this is more mediocre G rated MK games.

Thats a good thing, maybe something good can come out of it

This is great

Well heres my take of it. if Warner Brothers makes Midway to produce a game which is like MK 1,2,3 and MKD I am in but if it churns out more T-rated MK thats it this game is not for me.

BlueFlameBat, Omigawd, you read my mind. I love The Grid, I'd snap up an XBLA or PSN port if I could. And the arcade version of Rush 2049 on XBLA/PSN would be nice, too.

I thought Warner Bros did nicely with the Condemned series and the Fear titles, so hear's hoping they can get Midway back on the right track. How about doing a NBA Jams remake?

Ooh, how 'bout MK v... Looney Tunes? Wow, what does WB have that'll titillate nerds... Uhhh... Animaniacs? Did anyone who was a kid during Animanics like that show? I give up. XE

I think MK started to suck the most when it went 3D. bring back a dark original MK with original characters. not some remix crap

And here comes MK9!

Sounds good. One worry down, now I just hope a Wii MK is in development.

And so Warner Bros. gets their version of Atari Games back from Midway.

good to hear, midway needs to start making good mortal kombat games again. Bring on the M rated gore fests that were all used to.

I'm happy if it means more MK.

Come on Mortal Kombat vs Looney Tunes Universe.

unless the next MK will bring back everything, i do mean EVERYTHING that the series was first known for, & not engage into childish gore gameplay, then its "fatality" for MK ...for good

It could be worse they could have been completly disolved like blue octane of course Midway's games don't suck

Good luck to them, it is always horrible to hear of a gaming developer in financial truoble.

Finally

Cool:)

This is great

ouch...a tv studio running a game studio?

Yay for Midway!

Eagerly awaiting a MK vs DCU sequel. They should completely overhaul it like what they did for the transition between the original MK and MKII. More characters, fatalities and brutalities are enough. For the record, I play my MK games with the blood level turned down, so the rating of the games never mattered to me, but kudos Ed Boon for bringing back the gruesome fatalities because I still so want to decapitate Batman so bad that when I'm done nobody will be able to recognize his remains lol
