Is true Motaro in Tower Challenge?

I can't believe they didn't feature him more heavily in the story mode. I mean, Goro and Kintaro got their moments in the sun, but the 3rd boss didn't get anything beyond a slight appearance in the background??? I mean, they could have at least given him a cut scene or two. So strange, maybe they don't like him?
 
The more I think about it the more it upsets me NR had all this time, and still some glaring WTF? flaws!
No they need to patch that motherf#@ker in, no matter the cost. I don't care if I cant do X-rays, or throws on him it doesn't matter, he needs to be in there, not just a stupid cameo.
And I would like to have the option of playing as 'ALL' of the bosses, at least in single player feeling kind of hamstrung at the moment.
Other then that I'm having a blast!

gotta agree with this guy here... i also think Motaro is just unnecessary, stupid, and he doesnt have anything to do with a fighting game. i mean... he's a centaur... how random is this for a fighting game? you cant do very special moves and combos with his 4 legs... and i perfer not having him at all then having him as a mentaur like in MKA...
 
I personally hope we don't have to see anymore of him then his cameo in the story,never did like him
 
OK, I must be an idiot because I registered to reply to this thread. Take that as you will -- I don't mean that in an offensive way, it's really a compliment because I cared about what was being said here. Anyway, I'm really curious about Motaro. I've always hated fighting him, but he's an interesting boss and he does show up in the story mode which makes me think there is a model for him on the disc. With the way game systems and updates work these days, I can foresee NRS unlocking him/adding him later on. I was starting to think that the Jade fight might be a time release thing (I read every one of the 957 posts in the Reptile/Jade thread).

So I'm hoping to see Motaro -- I think he's fully modeled and since they went through the trouble of doing that (with the robo-tail) it makes me think they have plans for him. BUT, it is Ed Boon and Co and they have been known to go out of their way to throw the fans off track (Kano Transformations anyone?)

Thanks for reading my rant.

Maybe you're right. They could add a DLC game ladder mode that included Motaro in it or something like that. I would assume he isn't in the released game because his anatomy was relatively hard to construct, and they wanted him to be 4 legs this time. Along with bosses being x-ray-able... might prove a tough challenge for development.

I'm definitely a fan of the Motaro with 4 legs -- but as I said before, I hate fighting Motaro ... then again Kintaro was pretty cheap as well (in MKII). I didn't like the 2 leg version of Motaro, but that's probably a subject of another thread. Back on the topic though, I'm hoping that semi-robo Motaro will show up in some way. Reading the "600 Challenge tower" thread makes me think that NRS might have plans to add more challenges and maybe that's where Motaro will show up. I haven't finished the 300 yet, but I REALLY enjoyed playing as Goro and dishing out the boss damage that I had to endure in MK1. Hopefully that's not a spoiler for anyone at this point -- if it is, look forward to the "challenge" because it's hella fun.
