Random MK9 news/tidbits

Oops... Thats was one serious messed up typo on my part. ^_^'

Sorry guys.

Hans Lo twitter saying "Like were getting ready for E3 or something"
 
The new Kamidogu interview with Ed Boon certain has a lot of new info. Currently there is no Choose Your Destiny in the build and even more importantly the endings will be represented in some type of moving comic book art style :o
Also, Ed Boon meeting the director of MK Rebirth? xD Hell yeah! xD
 
When was the last MK to use the Choose Your Destiny? MK4?

Considering the AI/fighting will be largely different from the old games (no CPU throwing you out of a combo :rolleyes:), I can see why that's not in. It's rather passe since you don't have to pay for each game anymore, too.
 
Maybe not in your underdeveloped country.

Over here, though, we had ratings on the MK games, even before the ESRB was created. Sega had their own system (MK1 was rated MA-13, while the rest were MA-17), and I believe Nintendo even had to create one specifically for MK.
MK pretty much the sole reason the ESRB was created to begin with. It's funny how tame the games are now, too. Gears/God of War, anyone? lol

That's a good point about those two games and its clear that mk is back to not caring how much gore we see.

The reason they went tame comes down to two things... a) they're not really tame its just the bar was set so high in the first few that now we're not seeing stuff we haven't seen before.

b) mk was always everyones target come esrb conversation. Where G.O.W. and G.O.W. never had that long series of games to give the franchise a name worth arguing. The game just snuck out really before anyone could say anything because all the protestors were probably too busy picket lining midway.

All in all though I could name you plenty of fatalities from every game regardless of release date that is on par with the gore from any game.

Liu Kang's uppercut anyone?

Dunno if these have been posted before, but I haven't seen them.
 
The time reset means that the events in Armageddon haven't started yet.

I also notice that they put Scorpion's leg grab. I've always like that move, but it should work similar to Sonya's leg toss in that you need to crouch to block it.
 
I think it would be better if they had full cinematic ending for each character. its something personlly that i love.
But i am curious to how they will display this graphic still cinematic.

I think it would be great if they started off with great graphic stills and then cut into a quick Cinematic scene!
 
That's pretty good. But I think I'd prefer the 3D video endings though.

Well thing to consider, there will be a major cinematic story mode like MK vs DC.

Then each "arcade ending" sounds like it will be an animated artistic ending instead of the static artistic ending of MK vs DC. I like this change, as a cinematic ending just isn't in the cards for many reasons (space, time, length of story, etc).
