GCM Interviews MK:SM Producer

[MiNeOuT]

Game Chronicles Magazine has updated their site with a new interview with Shaun Himmerick, the producer of Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks. In the interview he talks about its development, timeline, multiplayer and much more. He also mentions that there is an upcoming game featuring a popular MK character.

My name is Shaun Himmerick and I am the producer of Mortal Kombat Shaolin Monks. I have been with Midway for 5 years and with the Mortal Kombat team for almost 2 years now, working on the MK:Shaolin Monks project. The game is being developed out of the Midway LA office, formerly Paradox Development. Even though this game was originally being done as a 3rd party project, the MK team in Chicago has maintained very close contact and worked closely with the team in LA. The art directors on MKSM are Tony Goskie and Steve Beran from the MK Deception team and have been apart of the MK team for many games. As well, Ed Boon is the Creative Director of the game.

[Dude]

Arrgh. I feel stupid again. I would look forward to the Scorpion game. Call it Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Scorpion. And it would be about Scorpion's life. THat would be sweet.

[Dark Scorpion5]

if they do do that, maybe it should be mythologies 2: Scorpion, and it should start out when hes living, then when he dies and so on

[Dude]

Yeah. You will get to fight Sub-Zero before you died!

[Black-Rose]
