    That chat between the boys at the start of of the video about thunder blocking the sun. Is Kahn a sun god?

    Haven't played fighting games hardcore since Tekken 3 back in the day but this and Tekken 7 may bring me back. D'Vorrah looks right up my street. Cassie on the otherhand looks very goofy with some of her animations. Her finisher on the other hand is beautiful.

    We had a wee chat about MKX on the latest HSN podcast. Am I the only one who's not digging the art-style? It's incredibly dark, even when compared to regular MK standards. It almost seems a little too serious.

    I think one of his three styles is called Sun God.

    Ah, ok. That makes sense then. So, I'm guessing each character's intro dialogue is interchangable then, depending on who they're facing off against. That's pretty badass.

    Injustice had a similar thing with the Clashes, where sometimes the second character's dialogue would be an actual reply to the first character. It was actually pretty cool, made for some funny exchanges.

    MK9 Kano ball with Inj Superman lasers.

    Agreed. That X was sick! I'm really liking the look of Kano. His cybernetics look cool, he's still got the brash attitude that we know and love him for, and more importantly- That accent.

    Kano is in?

    Day one purchase for me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,699 ✭✭✭deathrider


    Not only is he in, but he looks like an absolute animal!

    i think the best part about mk X so far is the different styles the fighters have. Hopefully some mk4 characters get in. Some of those characters are too good to be ignored.

    I'd be very surprised if Fujin, Shinnok and Rieko don't make an appearance.

    From Joystiq:
    Also, WB revealed four-armed charmer Goro is coming back to the series, making his first appearance as a playable character since 2006 entry Mortal Kombat: Armageddon. If you've absolutely Goro have him, he's a "retail channel-wide" pre-order exclusive in North America, and across the pond he's limited to "an exclusive UK retailer"
    Bahahahahahahahaa.
    Preorder exlcusive characters announced 7 months before the game ships? And the preorder character is Goro. You must be ****ing joking, Netherrelm.


  • Registered Users Posts: 598 ✭✭✭Macal


    Also a release date has been confirmed too, April 14th.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,699 ✭✭✭deathrider


    Goro will be a tournament ban right out the gate, and an online trolls best friend.

    It's "I thought they 'Fatalitied' him."

    Looks alright.

    Interestingly, the pads are PS3/4 and Xbox 360/One.
    Could be good for dual-modding.


  • Registered Users Posts: 598 ✭✭✭Macal


    wouldn't mind getting one of those
