    Wow, Noob is a beast. Really enjoying his fighting style, and that x-ray move has to be the sickest i have seen yet :rolleyes:

    Baraka, Cyrax, Ermac, Jade, Jax, Johnny Cage, Kano, Kitana, Kung Lao, Liu Kang, Mileena, Nightwolf, Noob Saibot, Raiden, Reptile, Scorpion, Sektor, Shang Tsung, Sindel,Sonya, Stryker, Sub-Zero Goro and Shao Kahn all been confirmed so far . All fan favourites im so happy :)


    This Video alone is telling me that netherealms studios is cutting the bull**** and bringing us what ive been waiting for since mortal kombat triliogy

    I'm still on the edge of my seat waiting to play this game. Still dying to see Baraka in motion though. Also, when I copped that it wasn't Kano and Reptile that Liu Kang was fighting in his recent trailer, but instead Shang Tsung morphed into them... This could have been one of the finest moments in recent gaming history for me. Does this mean that we'll be able to preform morphs again?

    My apoligies for double posting, but I just found this vid, and thought I'd share it. Notice how his old Cartwheel Uppercut fatality is now his X-Ray move. Very cool ;)

    While you are entitled to your opinion...

    as a long-time hater of MK, I'm gonna have to stick to FGs that came out of Japan.

    And possibly Skull Girls :)

    (visit the Fighting Games forum!)

    challenge tower will be completed no matter how frustrating


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,932 ✭✭✭YouSavedMyLife


    Man i hope its as "hardcore" as he says it is. Although i love the MK series, i found them to be abit to gimmicky. Oh look we have fatalitys and blood so balance kinda goes out the window. Hopefully if your good at the game your able to pull of some scrazy **** that other newbies wouldnt be able to. So yeah hope it aint a button masher

    that was its intention till now , mk has always been about pickin up a control and just playing with your buddies without a learning curve involved. its attraction has been its violence like duke nukem with its man macho charm and one liners. i hold it as my gem fighting game , up there with tekken 2, 3

    I really dont like fighting games...

    Will be buying this though, looking at it drags me right back to playing the MKII arcade machine with the looks of the characters.


    Also, Sonya is very...*ahem*.....endowed in that trailer...

    Right i just after playing mk demo using all characters all fatalities and xray moves and my final verdict


    THIS IS SO F******** AWESOME!!!!

    Graphically is so detailed and the animations is so fluid.
    Gameplay: it feels like playing Mortal Kombat 2 and 3 combos when ya do them are amazing best i pulled off was a 10 hit combo with scorpion then finished with a xray move on johnny cage.
    i actually yelled at times THIS IS SICK OMFG AHHH!!!!




    This game is sick im going back to play some more :P
