I already signed it. I hope more people do.

Plenty of people on to sign it lol. 72 fuckin users are on!!!! No wonder the servers been fuckin up today.

Signed.

Done! I don't have a 360. Just lending support.

I don't quite understand it. Ed boon wants 'us' to tell microsoft to make it backwards compatible. Doesn't it have to do with the programmers or Armageddon?

signed

I'll sign it if you make a petition for the PS2, saying we want the graphics on both systems to look equally crisp.

MKD on PS2 and Xbox had 480p annnd i think both had widescreen

No, the programmers are coding the game for Xbox. Apart from making sure they code properly and not do anything that can't be emulated, or is very hard to emulate, there's not much else they can do to make sure that it is BC for xbox360.

Only thing i'm worried about is that if the past two games aren't, there's always a good chance that it might be the same for MK:A :(

Still i'll sign it.

HD-MKD on PS2 is very grainy. It still looks good, but not even close to the Xbox in HD. I have both on my HDTV, it's plain as day.

Well what can microsoft do to help? They can't re-release another x-box360..

It has nothing to do with Midway here. MS's backwards compatibility team writes profile updates for Xbox games to make them playable on the Xbox 360. Once they get enough new games ready, they release an online update via the 360 dashboard that allows the 360 emulator to play the added Xbox titles. If you don't have online, then you can download the updates from their site and burn it to a disk for upload to your 360.

Xbox games on the Xbox 360 are done via emulation, and the playable list is always being updated with game fixes, emulator updates, and new Xbox titles through Xbox Live.

Bascially if enough people let them know we want it playable, they'll start working on a profile for MKA for the Xbox 360 that we can download once the game ships or shortly after release.
MK Deception was working at one point on the Xbox 360, but the game had some emulation problems (major slowdown), so it was taken down for improvment and will hopefully be back up sometime in the future.

How Bout a Petition for Noob & Smoke to be Seperate, Screw the 360 , Dont have one Dont Wont One.

That wasn't the only issue. Anyway, I signed the petition because I'm planning to get an Xbox 360 at some point.

does the xbox version have 16:9?

I heard a long time ago that the widescreen has issues.

oh and yeah of coruse the xbox version will look better. it has no overscan. (small black bars only on PS2 reguardless on 16:9 or 4:3

Is this for Microsoft or Midway.... This should definitely be directed towards Microsaof because they are the ones with the decision, in the MKO Interview Ed Boon said that hes trying to get Microsoft to make it backwards compatible.

It's for Microsoft since they are the ones who can make MKA on the Xbox 360 happen.

I will be sending this to MS after some time and sigs.

Yeah, as mentioned MS takes care of the emulation. Xbox backwards compatibility on the 360 is software driven, not hardware like PSX ---> PS2. MS has a team that constantly updates the emu so other games can be played.

I dont own a 360 either but, the growth and support of MK in any form is what matters. It's not about console fanboyism, it's about MK. Do I think MKA is going to be broke? Bet your ass I do. But the more exposure, the more support that is shown, the better off the franchise is.

Thanks for the support guys. Tell your peeps about this.

i feel so ancient with my rockin ps2

You're not the only one, lol.
