MK HD Arcade Kompilation artwork?

HD MK Arcade Kollection due out in mid-November, according to Gamestop **Updated 9-22**
Well as i sent txt’s out to all my MK peeps this morning around 10am-ish, i was the first to report this 🙂
(Storm’s, via MKE’s twitter via Tim Static: http://twitter.com/MKEmpirescom/status/25033151337
But i was able to pre-order the MK HD arcade compilation at about 10am this morning, probably the first person on the planet to do lol. PS3 only at this time, but via my connections, this wont come to a 360 disc, but rather a download on XBL arcade. 🙂
stay tuned!
http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/ProductDetails.aspx?product_id=84363
So take $10 to your nearest Gamestop and pre-order both this MK HD arcade compilation and MK9!!! support 2d MK!!!
(thanks to TRMK for the pic i used on here!)
**UPDATED**
Yesterday, the Gamestop link was pulled and now today, the sku is deleted (as my pre-order says). Again, it will be pre-orderable again here soon. Believe that. 🙂
The Summit at Summoning’s 9/5/10
Videos from The Summit at Summoning’s are going up right now. If anything, watch them to see Phil knock me out of a tournament for the first time, and the massive projector screen we’re playing on. To put it into perspective, the screen you see is about 12 feet from the camera and the characters are around 3 feet high. The finals were played on a UMK3 cabinet and probably should have been the whole night.

For whatever reason the Finals got set to private but they aren’t anymore. Check them out:

Dark Rob, Tim Static, and 9.95 do a Mortal Kombat episode on Podsumaki
On Monday, July 19th, 9.95, Dark Rob, and Tim Static were privileged enough to be asked to do an episode of the Podcast, Podsumaki, representing 2D MK players and the MK Community. Shock was supposed to be on, but unfortunately, could not make it. Next time though!
The episode is very long… almost 2.5 hours long. It’s worth a listen as the podcast is funny, and very informative.
Taken from:
http://www.destructoid.com/blogs/Podsumaki/podsumaki-episode-09-mortal-kombat-special-179896.phtml
Today is a very special episode with some very special guests. We’ve got three moderators and tournament players from three Mortal Kombat websites. They came on to discuss the classic games, the potential behind the Mortal Kombat reboot, and the recently growing Mortal Kombat tournament scene.
Your friendly neighborhood Wry Guy is running short on time, so you won’t be getting any extensive notes. Be warned though. This episode is very, very long and is largely controlled by our guests. Don’t worry, we’re still there to talk bullshit. Unfortunately we were TOO WEAK against the incredible knowledge these guys throw at us.
Guest Hosts for this week: 9.95, Tim Static, Dark Rob
Guesting From: UltimateMK.com, ClassicMK.com, MortalKombatEmpires.com

Episode Highlights
– Bulkmailer and Char Aznable get their listener questions answered by the MK pros
– Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, the tournament worthy Mortal Kombat we never knew about
– The growing Mortal Kombat tournament scene
– Analysis and fears of why the Mortal Kombat reboot may not be good
I hope everyone enjoys it, and a very special thanks to KD Alpha, Wry Guy, de BLOO, and RAB for having us on. -Phil
