I love Mortal Kombat 9 so I won't say anything too negative about the series, but as an old school fan I never quite understood why they made the characters look so cartoon like. Even the latest game, as cool as it is, I think people would have loved if the characters looked hyper-realistic like Bleed's Scorpion model. It seemed as time went on the idea of realism (which they captured in the original) became a thing of the past. I think they lost the spirit of the original games a bit with it. It was kind of like fighting with action figures instead of people. Maybe this remake will help influence how they make MK 10.
