Video Blips: Mortal Kombat, Fallout: New Vegas, Dawn of War 2, and More

Scorpion's intentions within the arenas of Mortal Kombat are seriously misinterpreted. All he wants is a hug after throwing his "friendship chain" at you.

Video Blips:

• Scorpion's gritty "Get over here!" evokes memories of hazy arcade rooms in this enhanced version of Mortal Kombat. I'm glad that overused theme song from the awesomely terrible 1995 film doesn't appear here.

Continue after the break to listen to some of the high-profile voice work in Fallout: New Vegas, spot those creepy Tyranids showing up again in a new expansion for Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War 2, and perform some crucial microbial cleanup in Microbot.

 

• Fallout: New Vegas launches today, so be sure to refresh yourself on its celebrity lineup of vocal talent. Matthew Perry (Chandler from Friends) certainly has the right kind of hair to play a survivor of the apocalypse.

• Unleash your inner Starship Troopers as you battle the insectoid Tyranid in Retribution, the second stand-alone expansion for Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War 2. I'm not sure if it was wise to let Gollum be the voice of the Tyranids.

• Pesky viruses have met their match with the tiny Microbot. I suppose this is way better than chugging down a truckload of pills every morning.
