- inactive, on 11/24/2008, -0/+17Midway hasn't done anything exciting in awhile. Not surprised.
- garryw, on 11/25/2008, -1/+10does this mean no bailout money for them?
- Wuss, on 11/25/2008, -0/+9"Mortal Kombat 17 - Mortal Kombat vs Jon and Kate plus 8" will be the gem, I'm telling you guys, just stick in there, dig deep, and we'll pull through.
- vivvivtzz, on 11/25/2008, -0/+9Game Over
- olafcore, on 11/25/2008, -1/+8TOASTY!
- korea, on 11/25/2008, -0/+7Kate would always win.
HUMILIATION - YodaJones, on 11/25/2008, -2/+8Actually the NYSE should thank it's lucky stars that they have companies that want to be listed.
- XtheXlanternX, on 11/25/2008, -0/+5Yes, when the popularity of a company's flagship product has already peaked, it is a great time to invest in them...
- AndrewDB, on 11/25/2008, -1/+6MK vs DC saving Midway.
Ha. That's a good one.
The original Mortal Kombat is the reason we have the ERSB. - rodted2, on 11/25/2008, -0/+3choose your destiny.
- dha07030, on 11/25/2008, -0/+2Suck it Sumner.
- rascilon, on 11/25/2008, -0/+2The same thing happened to Interplay several years ago and they are still trying to recover.
- AndrewDB, on 11/27/2008, -0/+2Just like? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Ins3dTgTJA and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Z76WCGgtiY I fail how to see those look ANYTHING alike.
- MrMayBeBanned, on 11/25/2008, -0/+2Epic is making an expansion for UT3. Include crossplatform between PC and PS3, fix the ***** UI and make Warfare like the Conquest you originally promised, and foremost, make it a TOURNAMENT again, and it will be a hit like it should have been. Midway pushed Epic to release the game when they shouldn't have and were responsible for the garbage version we got. Tip Midway, don't interfere with your developers and maybe you will make some money.
- otros, on 11/26/2008, -0/+2And we have the ESRB because the game was mainstream enough to garner some attention, meaning it did well. Your point being?
- cle2105, on 11/25/2008, -0/+2I would've gotten it, but they cut out the best part... gratuitous violence. Now I am waiting and hoping that Street Fighter IV doesn't suck
- Robitz, on 11/26/2008, -0/+2I guess you could say they're not very NYSE.

- dandonia, on 11/26/2008, -0/+1I really want to check your link out but my hatred for adds in comment sections is too much. Ah well
- Elranzer, on 11/26/2008, -0/+1gay ≠ lame
- FireandFlame, on 11/25/2008, -0/+1and Mortal Kombat 16 will be the best Mortal Kombat yet! Mortal Kombat vs Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen. I'll pay to see Scorpion spear them two.
- petebot, on 11/26/2008, -0/+1Ha! I was gonna ask if you worked at Hot Doug's before you mentioned WMS. My buddy works at Midway (on MK), and he was working crazy hours. It really sucks that they don't really have the marketing muscle to really pimp out and hype their games, like say, an Ubisoft or EA.
- replaysMike, on 11/25/2008, -3/+4NYSE to Midway: ur gay.
- gametavern, on 11/25/2008, -1/+2they've had penny stocks for a while right?
- inactive, on 11/25/2008, -0/+1They published UT3 that's about it.
- surian, on 11/26/2008, -0/+1Stranglehold was totally under marketed. Not many people knew about it (and the game itself suffered from serious design issues for a multitude of reasons). Generally, it seems that when a new Midway title comes out that doesn't perform well the company will pop out a new Mortal Kombat game. I doubt that the MK/DC game will pull them out of this unfortunately (although I hope I'm wrong). The guys at Midway put a lot of work into these games so I know it must sting when stocks don't reflect the effort.
Midway Games in Chicago is right across the street from where I work. They have some good guys working there and we do tend to get former employees from Midway working for us. Worst comes to worst, we're looking for more 3D artists/programmers at WMS ;-) - AzraelKans, on 11/26/2008, -1/+2Hmm no offense, but this a little shortsighted by stock brokers their last game is out it has some favorable reviews is a "t" rated game and the xmas season is merely starting, the game is sure to sales specially from those who just got a ps3 or an xbox 360. I mean parents are not going to buy Gears of War 2 , fallout or resistance for their kids. At least I wouldnt.
Ps3 has LBP but theres basically no other T rated game with that much hype in the xbox 360.
However, on the other hand, Midway did drop the ball big time by not publishing this game for the Wii and the PS2 . That would have been a great idea specially for the Wii. - dandonia, on 11/26/2008, -0/+1I think midway will out see this and if they manage to improve upon the TNA game, that could be a massive yearly hit for them. Granted it wasn't well recieved in it's first time out, but neither were some of the more popular wrestling games. It is a major licences for them anyhow.

Oh my God... your name makes me cry! - rogue780, on 11/26/2008, -0/+1?

both for mortal combat ... - g2e4vr, on 11/26/2008, -0/+1Yay WMS! I just wish I could do the interviewing!
- rogue780, on 11/26/2008, -0/+1you missed that reply button, didn't you?
- Khaine, on 11/26/2008, -0/+1This has nothing to do with stock brokers. To be listed on any exchange there are requirements you need to meet, such as disclosure of audited financial statements. If you do not comply with these requirements then you get delisted.
- canadas321, on 11/26/2008, -0/+0left down left right down right left left right right > *
- FaithclubDotNet, on 11/26/2008, -1/+1If they made World of Mortal Kombat, they could be raking it in big. Oh snap, thats something like what I am working on: www.roamingdragon.com
- viper001, on 11/26/2008, -1/+1Midway has absolutely RUINED the Mortal Kombat series. I haven't seen a world famous game series become so ***** since Sonic the Hedgehog. Take note from nintendo: if it aint broke, don't fix it.
- scoottie, on 11/26/2008, -1/+1with all the crap stocks i am surprised they still have a way of judging who will get delisted
- jjones20, on 11/25/2008, -2/+2I wanted to buy stock in midway, and then hoped that they would let me tell them how to make their games.
- wtfbatman, on 11/25/2008, -1/+1ESRB*
- jazino, on 11/25/2008, -0/+0Are video games recession proof?
- Elranzer, on 11/26/2008, -1/+1Street Fighter IV just looks like Street Fighter 2 HD. I honestly don't see the difference between it and the upcoming Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD coming to XBLA and PSN.
At least Mortal Kombat's sequels had well defined differences between the games. - A11YND, on 11/25/2008, -3/+2*****.. I just put in an application with them.
- Suzilla, on 11/25/2008, -2/+1@nullcodes -- exactly right.
MANY companies are now being delisted or facing delistment that are none the less sound in terms of sales and profit. - inactive, on 11/25/2008, -2/+1I feel the RAAAGGGEEEEE.
- Helois, on 11/25/2008, -3/+2Not liked anything this company did since I owned a sega genesis.
a.b.a.c.a.b.b
d.u.l.l.a.r.d - nullcodes, on 11/25/2008, -2/+1Due to poor sales and lack of investor confidence, their stock price has been falling below the threshold that triggers this. So, I guess it's due to investor fear of sub zero that they're getting de-listed.
