Apparently that is what this article says.

http://news.softpedia.com/news/Quan-Chi-No-Longer-Coming-to-Mortal-Kombat-116221.shtml


It was interesting, because at first glance, I thought it said we will NEVER EVER see Quan Chi again, but the title is misleading, as it only refers to the DLC.

But the interesting bit is, MK might not be coming twill 2012 or 2011. Any truth to that??? Thx for responses.

The writer of this article is all over the place! He's switching from fact to opinions, to speculations...The part about 2011-2012 is more of an opinion, but I wouldn't be surprised if MK9 did come one in '11.

Honestly, I can't wait that long. But if it's what Midway has to do in order for MK9 to be one of the best games in the series, then I'm up for it.

If you're not down with that, I've got two words for ya!
Mortal Kombat Anthology is my favorite MK game (even though its not really an official one)
For MK9: Baraka, Noob and Smoke, Tremor, Zebron, Lucifer, Blaze (MKD version) and Reiko

That's like saying "Don't wait...Just wait until it's released"

laugh cool

But no, I don't think it will take that long. I expect it to be out possibly mid 2010 (really I think that's when they'll start the promotional stuff), late 2010.

Wasn't there a thread that was about posting your predictions for the release date?

IMO, this was and is to be expected to happen, I mean when you think about it, it will take a bit of time to get everything done, like getting the characters to look just right, the arenas, backgrounds And even the gameplay itself, including the music and so on. So the last finishing touches, just take time to do. And I have said it once before and i'll say it again...... You can't rush art.

He probably suggested you to forget the whole game until it gets more recent.

Dang, don't be se realistic. Besides, Armageddon was supposed to happen in Mortal Kombat as well but still the life goes on in the Mortal Kombat series. Maybe it refers that there will still be something after the so-called Armageddon. Relying on Mortal Kombat, hahaha.

I wouldn't mind waiting until 2012 for the new MK. If they take that long to make it, we will, in theory, be looking at something quite simply amazing.

Mortal Kombat isn't about death, but life...Well it's about death to some MK Characters, Shao Kahn for example ^^

I would like for it to come in a later time. For the fact almost every Mortal Kombat game, comes out every two years. While they were progressing with MK vs. DC, they were working with two games. Though if late 2011, or mid 2012. We are bound to have a excellent game.

the article says that Quan Chi prefers Green. LOL

Should Jade be worried?

Agreed, the longer they spend on it the better the game will be. Im happy to wait this long for hem to make the best MK ever because it will be worth the wait so in that respect I this article is true.

What we also need is the orignal TEST YOUR MIGHT and a couple of things to bring back the real MK feel, like besides the "mini games", you know, things like of how dark MK was back in the day, but a hell of alot more Darker, to bring back MK to it's roots, which IMO the longer time they take with it, MK will be in that exact place.
