So I guess this whole 'We're reshooting actors for HD' thing never was?
Damn.
Where did you hear this
Yeah I'm really at a loss as to where you got this information. No one, anywhere, ever, said that actors weren't being "reshot" for HD.
maybe he didn't see the "HD" part of that box?
hey. Hey. HEY.

TRMK has independently confirmed with multiple industry sources that a high definition Mortal Kombat arcade update is indeed currently in development. Mortal Kombat HD Kollection will be a 2D Mortal Kombat Arcade Kollection (MK1, MK2 and UMK3) featuring all-new high resolution in game graphics - not simply upscaled graphics, but sharp, crisp, awesome-looking High Definition graphics.
Unlike Capcom's Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix, which required new character drawings, remaking Mortal Kombat in high definition is not as easy. In order to properly recreate the series in HD, Warner Bros. needed to film actors performing the moves like they originally did 20 years ago, just now with better high-definition cameras. Resorting to hand-drawn characters, or using 3D models in place of real actors would just not look right and cause many fans to revolt. However, things are not as simple as that. Since the previous actors are now 20 years older and - in most cases - wouldn't look to be the right age in high definition, Warner Bros. has hired new actors for the various roles and have been busy capturing them over the past few months at a Warner Bros. Studio in Los Angeles. TRMK has also heard that some of the original cast is involved in the filming in some capacity as well.
Not that I thought it was plausible, but, come on. First post of the thread.
A freelance 3D artist, Patrick Delmastro, has confirmed via his résumé that the mysterious Mortal Kombat: HD Arcade Kollection is indeed being worked on. Since he has been self-employed from March 2009 to the present, major titles that he has worked on include prop and environment art for Doom 4, Mortal Kombat HD Arcade Kollection and Firefall. Near the bottom of his résuma , under the platforms the game is being released for, only the Playstation 3 is mentioned.
Is it true? Or is this guy full of shit? I know the answer and that answer is a resounding... maybe.
ALSO... rumored release date is now March 2011. Supposedly it will come with a demo of Mortal Kombat 9.

It was supposedly coming out last month... but obviously this didn't happen.
All aboard the SS Skeptical.
