GameSpot: Video of Raiden in Unreal Championship 2

<a href="http://www.gamespot.com">GameSpot</a> has a real gem for <b>Mortal Kombat</b> fans in a new <a href="http://www.gamespot.com/xbox/action/unrealchampionship2theliandriconflict/media.html?gcst=uc2_raiden02042.asx">video</a> for <a href="http://www.unrealchampionship2.com/">Unreal Championship 2</a>, the <b>Xbox</b> exclusive first-person shooter with a third-person melee fighting twist.

For those who are unaware, <a href="http://www.midway.com">Midway</a> acquired the rights to publish the <b>Unreal</b> franchise back in <b>July 2004</b> and immediately decided to cross-promote licenses between the <b>Mortal Kombat</b> and <b>Unreal</b> franchises by introducing <b>Raiden</b> as a character in <b>Unreal Championship 2</b>.

Those who have the original <b>Unreal Championship</b> will be psyched to hear that <b>UC2</b> features a custom <B>Unreal</b> engine, tailored to the <b>Xbox</b> hardware, and not a port of <b>Unreal Tournament</b> like the original <b>UC</b> was.

In the <b>GameSpot</b> <a href="http://www.gamespot.com/xbox/action/unrealchampionship2theliandriconflict/media.html?gcst=uc2_raiden02042.asx">video</a>, <b>Raiden</b> is shown performing several of his melee attacks including a spinning staff attack that explodes his opponents into gibs and his "shocker" fatality.

<B>UPDATE</B>: <A HREF="http://www.ign.com">IGN</a> has a <a href="http://xbox.ign.com/articles/585/585984p2.html">developer interview</a> up that explains the decision to add <b>Raiden</b> to <b>Unreal Championship 2</b>.

Raiden is pretty sweet in that clip. I hope more exclusive MK characters are in it.

That is a real good fake!!

It's not fake, you fuktard.

I can't believe you'd think it would be a fake. Why would he be fighting unreal characters if he wasn't in it?

nvm.....

Thanks,well sorrta.

sorry about triple post, but i can not edit my posts on this forrum. why?

Can't answer that but to be honest... You didn't NEED to post triple times. Your first first is alright, but the second is basically spam and the third is pointless. PM a mod or something.

Anyway. We all now know there is enough to say yes he will be in th game end of story along with a few others (someone remind me who the hell is also in it!). It looks cool, yet for some reason I think it would simply be way too odd to have him in the game. Do they put storylines in for the Unreal games? Since the first one I haven't played a Unreal game all I know is that one has a storyline.
