Honestly, I just think he's missing that swagger, and a certain "look", i suppose.
Pretty much agree, though the same can be said about a lot of characters' portrayals in Rebirth/Legacy when you put it that way. Johnny Cage's wasn't that bad to me, with that said.

I'm up to 50 in the Challenge Ladder. I would love to get in more play time, but work has been kicking my ass, lately.One thing I do enjoy about the challenges is that you are pretty much FORCED to learn a character, thus giving you valuable skills. Like when I had to kill Cage, Stryker, Jax, and Sonya as Reptile, it was a fun learning experience.
Yeah, I really liked that feature/aspect of the tower. Ermac probably would've never been one of my mains were it not for this.

Kratos, Cyrax and Sektor have the lamest alternate costumes ever. Badass robot suit>boring Ninja outfits and where the eff is Kratos potato suit?
Disagreed on Cyrax. I actually liked his original appearance better before he became a cyborg. Am the opposite with Sektor though.

I actually hated this episode... the characterization of johnny is fine, but he's a movie star, not a Power Ranger, and in this take he never had a proper movie career...lamewhat I hate the most though it's the frigging censorship... wtf? the episode is barely fine, but the bleep out (or lack of) takes you out of the experience, it's distracting, aggravating... even more so when previous episodes didn't have it. The show doesn't need profanity, but since it's been shot that way, it makes it look bad
talking about previous episodes: it only gets worst, the second episode was censored as well, you no longer see Jax punching the shit out Kano's eye, it cuts to black and then resumes... what the hell? MK is about brutality (not about swearing) and now there's none of that... what's gonna happen with future episodes?
If it goes this way, it might as well get canceled after this season
Well I heard there's gonna be an uncut version coming out this Friday, or tomorrow rather. Probably won't be posted on youtube though, with how censor-happy the site is, but I'll post it if I find it I guess.

Looks like the first thing that definitely needs to be patched has been found.
Cage being able to use an X-ray attack without the meter being fully filled up is broken.
So yeah, watch out for this shit. Aim for low attacks or projectiles that can hit crouching opponents.
See, stuff like this is part of why I never play online the first thing.
On a similar note, Sheeva has this conveniently cheap way of beating AI opponents, which works even on expert mode, where when you use her regular throw/grapple once or twice, it'll take extra long for them to get back up, and you can use that opportunity to spam her teleport stomp until they die; they don't even fight back if keep stomping fast enough. A most easy way to get the trophy/achievement for beating the arcade ladder on expert without having to use a continue. Can see them perhaps patching that eventually too. The stomp more often than not works on Kahn too, like when you do it as he attempts to throw his hammer at you or taunt.

I hope so, Never liked the character, his fighting shrieks are annoying, and his moves sucks 131
I'm with you there on his shrieks, though to be fair, they're not as annoying now as they were in the older games. Kind of agree on his moves, but they're pretty cool looking when you use them as enhanced specials.

I wish Taven was in the game.
A half-god who beat nearly everyone in the last game he was in? That wouldn't be broken at all, though I do wish they had explained his fate/what happened to him. Are we just supposed to assume he was another one of the people killed by Kahn or someone during/after Armageddon? Laem.

liu's good, but he ain't no johnny cage imo.

Kung Lao should've been the one to fight Kahn in his colosseum though, not the other shaolin punk. I mean, he beat the deadly alliance and Kintaro, and then had his neck snapped by Kahn when he wasn't looking? It's as though they killed him off just so Liu could be able to fight Kahn again like in the original timeline...
Love that Cage theme that was posted by the way.
