IGN Reveals PSMs MK: Deception Preview!
Posted at 10:28 PM EST by DArqueBishop
PS2 IGN has revealed PSM's exclusive preview of Mortal Kombat: Deception, with an image of the front cover featuring Sub-Zero's new look, and a page from the actual magazine. The magazine page confirms the return of Noob Saibot by showing him fighting against Ermac, and also a glimpse of the mechanics of the Slaughterhouse stage fatality, by showing a red "danger" area from which a stage fatality can be performed. The stage fatality image shows an unknown warrior against Ermac; could this be another of the new characters?
The images (in both low-res and high-res form) can be found here. We'll report further as we have more information.
Our thanks to forum moderator Mobster4Christ and forum member TemperaryUserName for the heads-up on this story!

Update on MK: Deception Platform Availability
Posted at 1:55 PM EST by DArqueBishop
I spoke to a source within Midway Games today, and he confirmed for us that Mortal Kombat: Deception will not be released for Game Boy Advance. With that news, it appears that the only consoles MK: Deception is currently scheduled for release on are Playstation 2 and X-Box. However, our contact did state that a final decision concerning the GameCube version was still to be determined, despite earlier reports.
Our thanks to our contact at Midway for the heads-up on this information! We will report more information as we receive it.
Here is a link to the pics. They have friggin' huge blow ups if you want a closer look.
