GameSpot Posts Three More MKD Videos
Threes Company
The guys over at GameSpot have gotten their hands on three more videos of the GameCube version of Mortal Kombat: Deception. Two of them are actually just updated versions of the "Trading Kard bios" (made famous in the Kollector's Edition/Premium back in the USA, as well as the MKD Preview DVD in European countries), but now with footage from the GameCube version. The other video is a great looking trailer put together by Midway that features our favorite two bosses doing some killer combos! Thanks to MK Online forum member Humulis for the news!
1UP.COM Previews MKD for GameCube, New Screenshots
Six Pics, New Preview
The guys over at 1UP.COM have their MK: Deception preview as well, in addition to having their exclusive screenshots of the game. From the preview:
For the first time since Mortal Kombat sequels stopped having numbers attached to them, Deception on GameCube includes four-armed beast Goro and notorious boss Shao Kahn as playable characters. Even better, both characters are selectable right from the beginning, so players won't have to spend long amounts of time with the game before they get to try out the new additions.

Tech-wise, the game's graphics are more or less comparable to the other versions, and everything runs smoothly, so it doesn't look like GC players will have much of a negative tradeoff for the extra characters beyond the lack of online play, which will be no surprise to GC players.
Be sure to check out their exclusive screenshots, including some that depict Shao Kahn INSIDE one of the Dark Prison cells while Goro is on the outside: To read the preview in its entirety, click here.

In addition to the GameCube select screen, we also have confirmation that the bosses will have Fatalities!

IGN Gear reviews Jakks Pacifics Mortal Kombat TV Games
Looks like the guys at IGN have had a chance to sit down and play the new Mortal Kombat TV Games Unit from Jakks Pacific. From their review:
Mortal Kombat literally shoves the graphics, sound, gameplay, and violent nature of the original title into a self-contained controller that cleverly mimics the classic Mortal Kombat arcade cabinet. The device utilizes thumb-pad and button layout that's in line with the arcade unit's panel, right down to the button colors and text directions labeling the controls. The side panels lack the cheesy "Johnny Cage" dragon artwork, quite possibly a legal issue Jakks may have wanted to avoid. It still would have been cool to have them on there, if only to liven up the bland red sides just begging for a sticker.

Go here for the rest of the review, along with some screenshots of this cool little handheld version of the original Mortal Kombat! Also be sure to check out the media page, complete with 23 new images and 3 new movies here.

Special thanks to forum/chatroom user DECEPTION for the heads up!
IGN Posts Exclusive MKD GameCube Images and Videos
2 Vids, 4 Pics
In addition to the GameSpot videos (our update within the last hour), the guys at IGN are not to be forgotten. Six videos (two of which feature Goro and Shao Kahn) and five images (four of which have the two new bosses) have been added to their site. The pictures are crisp and give us a better portrayal of the two GameCube-exclusive characters, and the videos give us a better look at Shao Kahn's Forcefield Uppercut move, as well as some really cool grab moves for both players.
The low quality .WMV (Windows Media) Videos are free to download, while you must be suscribed to IGN Insider to get the higher quality QuickTime videos. Thanks once again to MK Online reader Jab316 for the news!
