Fan-developed My Little Ponies fighting game straddles the line between very cute and very, very unsettling.
My Little Ponies is generally considered one of the most overly cute franchises on earth. The entire point of the toys was to overwhelm children with their cuteness, who would in turn overwhelm their parents with demands that the toys be taken home. Essentially, the product sold based on cuteness alone. Now indie developer Mane6 is taking the Ponies crew somewhere they’ve never been – brutal fights to the death.
MLP: Fighting is Magic actually looks pretty smooth, and though it is a fighting title it doesn’t come off as overly violent. I would wager it’s about as cute as two ponies fighting could be, and it’s only in alpha right now. Who knows how much cuteness Mane6 can pack into the title before its release to the public and subsequent shutdown for copyright infringement?
The video clip also doesn’t indicate whether we can expect to see pony-theme finishing moves, such as knocking someone out with a rainbow or hugging someone until they fall gently asleep. I doubt there will be any gory violence, as the game seems dedicated to keeping things as cuddly as possible. In fact, it’s nice to see an indie developer that isn’t making a play to the Mortal Kombat crowd by turning this generally friendly franchise into an overly stylized bloodbath.
So far, MLP: Fighting is Magic has been confirmed as having both online and single-player modes. Mane6 is playing the rest of the details fairly close to the chest.
If you want to participate in the making of the game, Mane6 is currently looking for voice actors. You can check out the details right here.
Are you interested in a My Little Pony fighter, or are you too cool for a little cute?

Are you getting tired of the same old IPs being rehashed by Capcom? Would you like to see something new and different from them for a change? Worry not, because the company's VP has said that they are considering giving some of their old IPs a break.
Said Christian Svensson, "We really still think there's value in trying some stuff with [older IPs]. Obviously, we're heavily reliant right now on a narrower range of core brands. We're looking at ways to not over-saturate the market with them."
He continues to explain that the last thing they'd want to happen is for fans to get bored of their brands if they continue to expose them as much as they have been doing.
"I think that care has to be taken to avoid brand fatigue. Not to name names, I think some people are better or worse at that. We have some concerns internally about it, are we doing too much of something?"
Capcom is known for a long list of franchises that they have practically squeezed out dry with every new installement, such Resident Evil, Street Fighter, and Mega Man among many more others.
"You may see some other stuff, which we've been quite prolific with, take a little rest for a while whilst we update some stuff that hasn't been looked at for a while."
So really, they're just going to redirect their efforts to other already existing franchises that they feel have not been getting as much attention as of late. If that's the case, then maybe asking for a brand-new IP may not necessarily be at the top of their priority.

Many are wondering what's up for Killzone 3, specially after that spectacular launch it had just last week. Gamers are just in the early stage of enjoying the game, but already, they can't help but ask for more. They want it so bad, that game copies are flying out of the retail shelves, too. And it's only been a week since it came out.

Why, oh why, are you being so cruel, Australia? The shocking news we received today that is sure to rattle gaming fans in the land down under is that Mortal Kombat has just been banned.
Why, oh why, are you being so cruel, Australia? The shocking news we received today that is sure to rattle gaming fans in the land down under is that Mortal Kombat has just been banned.
Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment Australia confirmed the report to GamePron, disclosing that the Australian Board had a particularly strong aversion to the game's many fatalities. As it is a fighting game, where the objective is to knock down your opponent, this reasoning leaves a lot dumbfounded.
Said WBEI in their official statement, "We are extremely disappointed that Mortal Kombat, one of the world's oldest and most successful video game franchises, will not be available to mature Australian gamers."
"WBIE would not market mature content where it is not appropriate for the audience. We understand that not all content is for every audience, but there is an audience for mature gaming content and it would make more sense to have the R18+ classificaion in Australia."
The Australian Board justifies this ban thus: "The Board notes that fatalities cannot be performed in Story mode and are unlikely to be performed frequently during gameplay; however, it is also noted that there are more than 60 fatalities available and they are an important component of the game."
Among the many moves they found disturbing in particular would be Kung Lao's "buzz saw" hat move, Stryker's point-blank firing range, leg-ripping from Quan Chi, slice and dice from Scorpion, and Shao Kahn's body-tear maneouver.
The Ratings Board further explained, "The game includes over 60 fatalities which contain explicit depictions of dismemberment, decapitation, disembowelment and other brutal forms of slaughter. Despite the exaggerated conceptual nature of the fatalities and their context within a fighting game set in a fantasy realm, impact is heightened by the use of graphics which are realistically rendered and very detailed."
It would be safe to say, then, that the developers really got it right in so far as the graphics are concerned! But that would be missing the Classification Board's point entirely.
For their part, it seems like WBIE have no intentions of cutting out content just so they can appease the board. "As a member of the iGEA, WBIE is reviewing all options available at this time," they said. iGEA would be the games industry association for the PAL region.
Mortal Kombat is the first game to have been banned from Australian shores in more than a year. Here's hoping they work this issue out. It would be a crying shame if mature gamers from the territory won't be able to get their hands on this after waiting for so long.
The Australian Classification Board's full decision can be viewed right here in this link, in pdf format. Have a look at it yourself so you are well-informed enough when you make your rebuttal to their case.
We'll be following up on this matter, and of course, we'll all be keeping you posted on any more developments regarding this. In the meantime, our thoughts go out to our Australian counterparts. Just keep crossing your fingers. There might be a miracle somewhere, somehow.
