This looks okay but I ended up liking Injustice more than MK9 so

Hingehead posted:Scorpion's fatality have been revealed and it isn't pretty. I have a tough stomach, I am able to handle beheading videos and even then that was a bit hard to stomach through, but this....this is too much and I say it as a complement, the details really shows with anatomical correctness.

I'm a bit worried that Scoprion's fatality will have to be redone. I remember them showing off Joker's fatality for Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe and they added up censoring it in the full game.

For MK, they don't care. They'll probably keep it.

I'm pretty sure MK vs DC was a T-Rated game and Netherrealm was so loving obsessed with it that they added it back in MK9 anyways for Shang Tsung.

I just looked into the Injustice comic (which is still going!) and apparently this is the first time anyone ever thought of taking out Black Adam by just putting the lasso of truth around him and forcing him to expose his power word? That seems like such an obvious thing so it's kinda weird to find out it hadn't happened until this forgettable game tie-in comic was written.

Well it's like that The Punisher Kills the Marvel Universe one shot, if any of the major characters really thought with lethal intent no one would be alive.Beef Waifu posted:I'm pretty sure MK vs DC was a T-Rated game and Netherrealm was so loving obsessed with it that they added it back in MK9 anyways for Shang Tsung. Correct, and it was actually only altered (the camera zooms in on the Joker instead of showing the full headshot) in the US and Europe, the Japanese version is not censored. In Mortal Kombat 9, to satisfy the negative reaction to this, Shang Tsung has a fatality where he turns into clown and graphically blows someone head off and it shows it repeatedly from multiple angles. The other thing they did was have Sheeva is given Australia to conquer and rule over as she pleases by the UN as payment for helping to save the earth since the game was banned there.

I don't think MKvDC or any MK since the arcade days got a Japanese release, and even then I'm guessing it only ever came to consoles, not actual arcades filled with a million other real fighting games.

But having Black Adam say "SHAZAM!" doesn't usually kill him. It just depowers him until he says it again. Anyway, the best thing to come out of that comic is Alfred kicking the poo poo out of Superman.

Jade I now have a quarrel with you Well, not really. But for me the hilarity of beating up dudes with a portable stripper pole kinda made up for the lack of a backstory, and her story in MK9 kinda sorta had some potential.

PunkBoy posted:Sub-Zero owns, and I want to see him get a suit alternate costume now. Throwing business cards like ninja stars. Looking over that ranked list of characters, it makes me really feel that a lot of the characters could be given second chances. MK9 redid the events of the first three games and made a much more cohesive story and brought all the characters into the greater conflict. Originally, you had duds like Stryker and Nightwolf in MK3 that stood out as Village People rejects, but they were brought back and made into much stronger characters thanks to a redone story and thanks to fun gameplay. If MKX had chosen to do the same thing with the events of MK4 and Deadly Alliance, you reinvent a bunch of the poo poo characters from those games and do some cool stuff with the story. Kinda bummed we won't get to see that, but hopefully the direction they've chosen to gone will end up being OK.

Never knew who Sareena was before this article, but her being the one shining light in Sub-Zero 1's actions could make for a neat story to revisit.

It made me realize how rock solid all of the new characters added to MK 2 were. Not a bad one in the bunch. It also made me realize that I can barely remember my own birthday, but I could easily place every MK 2 character portrait in their correct spot on the selection screen despite not having played the game in over 10 years.
