Usually, the more story driven the fighting game, the more the gameplay suffers, usually. Sorta what Sats just said. I think you can have a decent story without having it be the main force behind the game.
That's bullshit really.
Good writing should in no way impede on the quality of gameplay. It's not like they are staffed by only 3 people or some shit.

He's the title's foremost anti-hero; his demeanor, characteristics, persona, and self-reliance all contribute to his popularity, with Scorpion being the most human in nature and choice when compared to the "good guys" and "bad guys" of the series.
No, i get THAT, even if i disagree.
I just don't like him that much, i guess.

😖hifty: That's gotta be the deadliest x-ray move of them all.
If their scrotum hasn't been replaced by cybernetics yet. Even if it has, Cage's probably gonna do serious damage to the wires &stuff down there.
Originally posted by -Pr-Cage is awesome. I 1st thought Cage was supposed to be the main guy because he was on the arcade cabinet as Raiden would be for MK2. Was pissed when I realized it was Liu. He had the WORST fatality in MK also, only came in useful on the pit.

Scorpion is just awesome and his catchphrase makes him the most iconic MKombatant IMO.
MK9 looks better than MKvsDC but the story is lame as hell:
Developer Ed Boon describes the game as an altered re-telling of the events of the original first three Mortal Kombatgames (MK, MK II, and MK3).
...Raiden is about to be killed by Shao Kahn, and just before he delivers the last blow, he [Raiden] sends a mental message to his earlier self, so the camera rewinds back to Mortal Kombat 1. The Raiden from back then gets a message and he doesn't know what's going on, but he knows something bad's going to happen, and the game spans Mortal Kombat 1, 2, and 3, retelling the story with an enlightened Raiden, and he's changing the course of things, so everything you've seen happen before ? Liu Kang winning, the guys turning into cybernetic ninjas, are changed around, so you might see a character become cybernetic who wasn't before, and so you see a different version [of events].
WTF?!

I would like to know though how Shao Khan actually beat Raiden, or at least go a little more into that.
Still predict that the younger Subzero will become a cybernetic ninja, especially seeing as how we've got the original Subzero back (which means no Noob Saibot).

Kinda glad they did. Seeing a sac bursting every time you do that move would've made it a bit too disturbing for my tastes.
XD but think of the humor.. it would be perfectly in tact and burst again everytime you did it
but in all honesty.. it just looks wierd seeing nothing but torso muscles getting punched.. you dont get any kind of "OH DAMN you KNOW that shit hurt.." like you do with the other x-rays

Cage is punching the crotch of his opponent. If it's a male he's pulling off the move against, we definitely will get a "OH DAMN you KNOW that shit hurt" feeling.

Originally posted by majid86I like it so far because it gives them a chance to start over w/a more worthy hero.
