Mortal Kombat: Armageddon Screen Shots, Video and Interview
IGN has posted 15 New screen shots, a new video and they interviewed Ed Boon.

::From the IGN interview::
IGN: What do you mean by "Armageddon?" Is this really the final battle between good and evil? Does this mean this is the last Mortal Kombat as we know it? Will you explain?

Ed: Armageddon does imply "The End" in a few ways. It is the end of MK on this generation of consoles. It also is the final battle between all the good and evil characters in the MK universe. We really want to close this chapter of Mortal Kombat.

Mortal Kombat: Debate-ality and GameDaily Previews MK:A
Bryan Dawson from GameDaily.com wrote an interesting feature about Mortal Kombat. This feature cover the history if Mortal Kombat and it talks about Mortal Kombat: Armageddon.

::From the GameDaily Feature::
However, MK Armageddon actually has some positives to it. First off, Ed Boon and his crew have added aerial combat to the title. This should allow it to play much more like Mortal Kombat 3 and less like the last two craptastic titles in the series. Unfortunately, since the base gameplay engine is still based on Deadly Alliance, even adding aerial combat isn't enough to make this one appeal to the real fighting game fans. Casual players are taking over the industry and Midway is catering to them with its bread and butter franchise. The only other positive about MKA is that this will be the last game in the series to use the horrible Deadly Alliance fighting engine. Come 2007 or 2008… or whenever Midway releases its first next generation fighting game, we'll finally have a brand new MK to play that doesn't use an old fighting engine.

Check out the Feature @ Gamedaily.com.

GameDaily has also posted a 3 page preview of Mortal Kombat: Armageddon.

::From the GameDaily Preview::
The Mortal Kombat series is returning for the seventh installment, and although it's limited to current generation consoles (PlayStation 2 and Xbox), it's looking to be huge. The last few Mortal Kombat games have appealed to the casuals through blood and gore, and now those casuals will get to create their own fatalities and combatants. Interested? I thought you would be, but that's not all Midway has stuffed into Mortal Kombat Armageddon. This one is looking huge folks, just keep on reading for the full rundown of what to expect.

ShackNews Previews Mortal Kombat: Armageddon
David Craddock of Shacknews.com got the chance to site down and have a chat with Ed Boon about Mortal Kombat: Armageddon. They talk about the name begin misleading. Also the Bosses, Shao Kahn, Goro, and Kintaro will be on the same playing field as the other characters. Their is a lot of new info in this preview.

::From the ShackNews.com Preview::
First and foremost, fans can rest assured, as the tag-line of the next MK is a bit misleading. Boon explains: "Armageddon WILL be the last MK game that will be made ... for this generation [Xbox 1, PS2] of consoles." The focus of the game will be the culmination of most, if not all, existing storylines, something that Mortal Kombat has always focused on, where many fighting games do not. Not only will Armageddon be the last fighter on this generation of hardware, but it will also be the last MK game that incorporates the fighting engine that has been in use since Deadly Alliance. What do future platforms hold in store for the series? Time will tell; Ed Boon, unfortunately, will not!

Choose Your Destiny

As noted, Mortal Kombat has always featured rather thought out storylines for its cast of characters. Because MK:A will focus on wrapping up these storylines—in short, seeing who should stick around for the next wave of MK games, and who should be given the ax—you can expect to see a few characters you haven't seen in a while. And by a few, I mean ALL of them. Characters like Stryker, Sheeva, Sektor, Motaro, Kintaro, and Shao Kahn that haven't been seen since the days of MK3 or MK: Gold will return, as will all others. Mortal Kombat 1 through Deception is represented here, and there will be a few new faces as well. This, combined with a feature that I will reveal shortly, will make for a 60+ cast of characters. Boon says it best: "No more 'what if' scenarios. Players will be able to create any super-match ups they can think of."
