Raiden Vignette Debuts on GameSpot

holy balls!!!! its raiden!!!!!! im so happpy to see him!!! he's moves are so badass!!! if im not wrong, he looks 100% percent like what he did look in MK vs DC...
It's not exactly the same, but it's safe to say the new has taken some designs from the old.
 
He looks and battles Fantastic! I can't wait to play as him and start electrocuting on some fools. I'm ready! Are You? Because if you battle me online YOU are going DOWN!
 
I think his X-Ray could be a bit more destructive and creative than that (He's a God, after all!)
His look is cool. Simple, bright and clean. A form that a god would've chosen for himself I guess.
Also, like as many others mentioned on this thread - These vignettes were made quite some time ago.
So I'm looking for to see him in actual gameplay very soon (hopefully at PAX).
 
...I just don't like how he teleports.....I like the old way MUCH better.....

I can't wait for April 19th. The Big Trouble in Little China entrance is an awesome touch. As for the teleport, I always loved, and still do, the "white phase" that was always a trademark of Raiden's, but I always thought it telegraphed the move a little too much. I'm thinking this teleport is being a little more stealthy/opponent disorienting. Whenever he teleports, there's a little disortion and lingering static in the air before and after.

Of course, if this vignette is from a previous build, it might not be implemented fully yet.
