Spencer Halpin, the director of 2009 documentary Moral Kombat, took a lot of flak from gamers for interviewing family values crusaders like Jack Thompson and David Walsh alongside industry representatives such as American McGee and Oddworld Inhabitants' Lorne Lanning. For a long time the ire stemmed only from the widely circulated trailer, but now the entire movie's available for free streaming for you to make up your own mind...

The truth behind that Mortal Kombat short film revealed

June 11, 2010, 12:54 a.m.

Is it 1994 all over again, because Mortal Kombat seems more popular in the last three days than it’s been in the last 10 years. Today we saw the trailer for the next MK game, which looks to return the serious to the comical violence of old. And while that’s kept us in a blood-soaked tizzy, the excitement really began with this video, cryptically released on YouTube as Mortal Kombat Rebirth two days ago.

"Obviously we had online on other platforms so it wasn't going to be a technology challenge for us," said the game's producer, Shaun Himmerick, to advancedmn.com. "Nintendo didn't have their online system ready for us when we would have needed to implement it," he continued. Nintendo must have been hogging the online tools for themselves

Next Mortal Kombat will be "real serious"

Mortal Kombat creator Ed Boon has explained that his next game is "going to be a real serious Mortal Kombat" in a recent interview. Speaking about what's coming after Armageddon with us earlier in the week, he said the new title will be "a lot more realistic-looking... we're not going to joke around in this one, it's not going to be like jokes." It suggests a more edgy style for the next Mortal Kombat game, Boon reaffirming that it'll be "a lot grittier, dirtier" than previous titles in the
