MKSF Release Date Pushed Back
Well as with every MK game in the games' history, the release date of yet another project has been pushed back.  MK Special Forces, which was slated for a Fall release this year has been postponed to come out at a later date.  In an article presented by GameSpot News, the new release date for the N64 version is set at Spring of the year 2000.  The Playstation version is not mentioned in the article but I'm sure they will be fine-tuning this version as well.  Midway says that it needs more time to fine-tune the game so the quality will be on track.  In my opinion, I think Midway is smart for taking extra time because it's better to have a game that is complete rather than it having a lot of bugs and missing elements because they ran out of time.  More news concerning MKSF will be posted when it rolls in.

MK Gold On Newstands
