Matt Booty, Midway's interim president and CEO, believes that Midway's lineup later this year, consisting of Blitz: The League II and Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe, will "expand the audience beyond their core fan bases." We know it's sweet to try and make quotes from the Nintendo playbook, but we just don't have the heart to tell him that Midway isn't Nintendo. The financial rivers will continue to flow red as Midway expects another multi-million loss during Q3.

There should have been a picture of a MK uppercut and blood gushing everywhere. The falling blood droplets will then show $34.8 million.

Maybe if Midway started to make some good games they wouldn't see losses. Instead they have a great line-up of a crappy MK game and Vin Diesel. THANKS MIDWAY!!!

I seriously considered pursuing a job at Midway a couple years ago but after reviewing their financial statements, I just wondered how long they can possibly continue to bleed cash like this?

As a former Midway employee that was caught up in one of their many layoffs, they can burn in hell, and it looks like they are well on their way. Good job Midway!

According to video game stereotypes, she probably knows amazing kung fu and can handle giant sword during combat.
With those massive tits, she would be more apt for Soul Calibur DLC.
