The first news about Mortal Kombat 6 -Deception:
Sent to a website by a source close to the project, a hi-res image of an angry Baraka already shows an advanced level of detail when compared to 2002's fighting hit Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance. And while there's definitely been debate among fans throughout the online community as to whether or not the capture is that of a render or a screenshot, the fact remains that the image appears to be legitimate.
heres the pic

Fighters confirmed:
Baraka, Mileena, Scorpion e Sub-Zero.

can we say ALL F****** RIGHT!!! Baraka is the shi-hat!

I gave up on mortal combat when deadly alliance came out....looks like i'll have to jump back into the genre...


nice new siggy V-fan especially the pic on the right

that picture of baraka looks too exaggerated. I remember him in MK2 looking more realistic. That pic just makes him look like a psycho clown

ummm... so you really believe baraka looked realistic in MK2? I mean comparing baraka's image from MK2 to the picture above is comparing finger painting to artistic mastery.

CAN'T WAIT

rofl... im sorry to say, but the skill of that cg looks like it could be used in a mortal kombat parody.

any of the above pictures is better in terms of being more realistic, than that low quality cg of baraka (low quality by todays standards)

I know what you mean. He looks great graphically but looks too computer animated. The MK2 Baraka looks more realistic in the sense of a blurry picture of a real living thing.

they have a trailer of MK : Deception up at www.gametrailers.com

Baraka's back! YAAAAAAAY!

So far, I have yet to not enjoy an MK game. So I'll probably be getting this one. It looks like they're going back to their roots and using all of the classic characters, instead of their "invent a bunch of new crappy ones" formula. I couldn't be happier.

what about sho kawn er however you spell his name, he shoulda beat the shit outa quan chi for that little stunt, but he died so he couldnt......


did they bring him back?

lmao dude... I dont like Quan Chi , he's such a crap character.... and you're right, Shao Khan shoulda pwned him hard (along with Shang Tsung) for all thier nonsense

VENFOMfan: rumour has it you can just make out part of Shao khan in the trailer, but nothing is cnfirmed.

You can make out something like looks kinda like shao kahn, and also looks kinda like Sub Zero. It's really hard to tell.

This trailer comes with a stage fatality at the end.. and some blood during the actual trailer

It looks like a fatality pit...

in the trailer you can see sub zero, scorppian, baraka, shao kahns mask, and it looks like theres a red ninja not like subzero or scorpian but he looks like a majii

ok here is a gurented line up, we have a revamped sub zero((looks like a badass shredder)) Baraka,Noob Sibat,Ermac,Sindel,Mileena,Blind Kenshin,Scorpion, and that fat guy from DA. there are more but i couldnt see names. and ALL of these guys are updated and look rad((Ermac is the shit))

Where did you see that, Venom?

(And no, Baraka is the shit. )

April 2004 of PSM((playstation magazine)) they had a huge preview of it, there is also a raiden esq new chick, and a guy who looks like the wind god from mortal combat 4. and yes Baraka is the shit. but this new sub-zero is easily the best sub-zero ever he looks waaaaaaaaaaaay more badass than even scorpion i will try to find some pics or i will scan them later

It appears that this mortal kombat will ditch the energy bar and replace it with a stasis icon that shows how badly youve been beaten. They are also bringin back multiple fatalities per character, adding fully interactive stages, and the online feature. http://www.gamespot.com/ps2/action/mortalkombatdeception/preview_6091832.html

Their better be Ketanna

subzero has a new costume he looks like shredder and MK Deception is an rpg and fighting game in one and you can play online. and in the konquest rpg every mk fihter ever in a MK game will be in there each character has 2 fatalities and one kill yourself move. and the stage fatalities are back!!! mileena is back sindel is back i dont know about lui kang
if anyone has anyone questions about this game just ask i have a lot of info

Where did you get all of your info?

psm magazine

And in Konquest mode, you get to meet every character that has ever been in MK. And one level is actually the ship used to take the competitors to the island.

I didn't play the last one, does anyone know the storyline from it?

I just hope they make this one better than Deadly alliance because that game was incredibly terrible in all aspects of gameplay.

BRING BACK 2D MORTAL KOMBAT GAMES!!.... With the enhanced speed and playability of Streetfighter.

I am with you.

You mean deadly alliance?
if you do it kinda sums up like this;
first quan chi escapes from captivity or somethin (who really cares he sucks anyway), and he discovers an ancient army of the undefeatable dragon king. to use the army he needs shang sung to put souls into their body's. so they form an alliance (hence the name)
but first they must defeat the 2 people who can easily stop their plans.
first they kill shao kahn and then they kill Lui Kang (thank god- he was so annoying imo)
so then starts the fight against them.

oh yea, at the end reptile is coninuing his transformation into something very primal.. maybe even something like a dragon...

Yea its all on the PSM april. I bought that just for the MK preview. I kinda liked Sub, without the shreader stuff. Subs, second costume is pretty wicked, he's bald with a pony tail on the back of his head.

Any info on whether or not this will be released on the Cube?

so far, unfortunately the answer is no. i have a cube too, so i'm dissapointed as are many other gamers. (deadly alliance did sell pretty well on the cube too)

Oh man did I not like Deadly Alliance at all.

I hate it how so many fighting games are becoming combo this and combo that. Its rubbish. It's no fun having to sit for two hours learning moves properly until you can use them effectively in a fight.

That's why everyone prefers the old ones. Street Fighter was simple yet incredibly deep. Companies forget this and go for combos and style every freakin time.

Mortal Kombat 4 on the N64 was fantastic because it was incredibly simple and moves were diverse. Deadly Alliance had like one special move and about ten different punches for each character. It was boring and played boring.

They need to ditch the Virtua Fighter wannabe mechanics and go back to basics. Here is a list of what I'd like to see:

1) The same basic movelist for everybody. Forget the weapons, they suck. When I press down and high punch, I want EVERY character to do an uppercut (I miss that move so much). I press back and high kick and EVERY character does a powerful roundhouse kick. The way you make it different is that the animations are different in how they go about the move. None of this switching stance nonsense.

2) Make each characters movelists different by having several special attacks. You know the score, Sub Zero can make ice shadows, ice balls, slide around etc, Scorpion can teleoprt, breath fire, "get over here" etc.

3) We wanna jump twice our height into the air. Half the fun of Scorpion was watching fly around the screen like Spiderman. We want the over the top Bruce Lee style fights again.

4) Some visible damage would be sweet. Clothes rip, sleeves get torn off, its not that hard you just switch models when damage gets high.
