Who even owns that IP anymore? I would like another installment. I'm not even going to lie, DC vs MK was fun when I played it.

Trey-

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment owns most of the Midway back catalog now, including Mortal Kombat, Spy Hunter, Gauntlet, San Francisco Rush, and everything else with the three exceptions here-

NBA Jam- owned by EA Sports now
Hydro Thunder- owned by Microsoft Game Studios now
Cruis'n- Nintendo always had the IP rights, they just licensed the name to Midway to make the Cruis'n trilogy.

Dear Warner bros.

I want a good gauntlet game.

Most of midway's back catalog is great franchises, and I hope a company that doesn't have it's head up its ass will do great things with them.

Agreed. If WBIE would just put the Midway/Williams/Atari Games back catalog onto the Xbox Game Room, I'd buy them all.

Can we get some investigative journalism going on here and find out who owns the rights to Hitz (and Blitz)?

I'm also hoping the Midway love will begin flowing in XBLA Game Room. Hopefully the rights to the original cabinet designs are attached to the games themselves so we don't get cabs looking like those ugly Konami ones...

That, and Microsoft has to resubmit Game Room to the ESRB for an M rating (which they can do) so we can play Mortal Kombat and NARC the way they were meant to be played.
