Similar Mortal Kombat Fatalities. *SPOILERS*

Before I start I want to say I love Mortal Kombat 2011's fatalities. However I also want to point out that a lot of the fatalities are very similar if not the same, so no this is not another "Bash the fatalities befoe the game comes out" thread.

Torso destroyers:

1.Johnny Cage punches the person's head off thne rips their torso off.
2.Sektor shoots a missle, blowing up the opponents torso apart then uses additional missiles to blow up the remaining top half.
3. Sub Zero freezes the opponent's bottom half, then rips their torso from their frozen bottom half.
4. Sonya uses here legs to split the opponents torso from their bottom.
5. Scorpian cuts the opponent horizantaly in half then their head, then kicks the toros before cutting the head verticaly in two.


Vertical rips:

1.Shao Kahn uses his bare hands to rip the opponent verticaly in half.
2.Kung Lao kicks the opponent to the ground then uses his buzz saw hat to split the opponent verticaly in two.
3.Kung Lao throws his hat, cutting the opponent's head off then splits their body verticaly in half.
4.Kabal kicks the opponent into the air and then uses his hook sword and slices them verticaly in half.
5.Noob Saibot, makes his shadow clone come from the side, then picks the opponent up the the legs, then rips them verticaly in half form the crotch up.

Arms, legs and head:

1.Raiden shoots electric beams, cutting off the opponent's arms, then their legs, then he picks them up and slams them on their head, destroying it.
2.Ermac, picks the opponent up with telekenesis then rips off both arms and legs, then drops them on thier head destroying it.
3.Goro (from what I heard) picks the opponent up by the arms and legs, then rips them off, then crushes their head with his hands. (This one is not valid, only a rumor)
4.Baraka hoist the opponent above his head then spins them around, using his free hand to cut off the opponent's arms, legs and head.

Head destroyer:
1. Sindel uses her sonic screams to blow the opponent's head apart.
2.Stryker tazes the opponent then uses his gun to blow the opponent's head off.
3.Jade uses her bommerang blade to cut the opponent's head off.
4. Mileena throws her sais into her opponent's torso then rips their head off and chews off the face.


Arm slice, head destroyer:

1.Jax, rips off the opponent's arms then does a massive clap to the opponent's head destroying it.
2.Baraka uses his blades and slices off the opponent's arms then (I assume) cuts off their head.
3.Kitana uses her blades fans and cuts off their arms, then their head.

Re: Similar Mortal Kombat Fatalities.

I think that these "similar" fatalities are the less gorier ones, and the other 1 or 2 that we unlock for each character are the more brutal ones.


For example:
Ed Boon mentioned that Kabal had a fatality in which ..... (I won't spoil it here ... watch the GTTV video for the 2nd possible fatality).

I'm hoping that's the case, and the fatalities which Ed Booon said "crossed the line" are the unlockables.
 
Re: Similar Mortal Kombat Fatalities.

We have way too many topics like this. Even though this one was a lot less annoying to read than the others.

However, I think it's important to realize not HOW the people are coming apart but what is CAUSING them to come apart. I mean, I know you grouped them but take the "Torso destroyers" for Sonya and Sektor. Both fatalities involve the destruction of the human torso but these fatalities couldn't be more different from each other. Sektors got missles and Sonya...Well....Doesn't.

For the vertical rips....How could you compare Noob's to Kung Lao's? Sure the end results are the same but just take a look at what happens BEFORE that end result.

So, I think it's key to understand HOW their heads are coming off, HOW their torsos are being destroyed, HOW they're being split in half etc...

I love every fatality that i've seen in this game.

Re: Similar Mortal Kombat Fatalities.

I agree with the above post, and that is why I said I too love them, I just found it fuuny and wanted to put them into some kind a catagory, but as you can see when you describe them they sound much better.
 
Re: Similar Mortal Kombat Fatalities.

You know why alot of people are upset??? because we are not seeing the GUTS!!! We are only seeing dismembermant. If you look at Noob's fatality i guess you do see some guts fall out, but for the most part we don't see intestines spilling out, or livers and kidneys falling out. We know they're in there Boon!!!! We want to see them more out of the body than in!!
 
Re: Similar Mortal Kombat Fatalities.

I have been a fan of all the fatalities shown so far. Im sure NRS hasnt shown all the cards, why would you? ;) Sure Scorpions's is a little generic but we know he gets toasty, plus something else so why complain? Sometimes simpler is better, I think Kabal's and Nightwolf's...yes i said Nightwolf, fatalitieas are clean and great. Brutal and quick, there are only so many ways to destroy a body. My only blemish would be that they have gored up Reptiles, which i have heard they have. So dont sweat it guys, we have to wait and see :D
 
i´m satisfied with the fatalities... they are the goriest of all time...

but when you look at the other classic MK´s you will realize that there was the same thing...

in MK2 there were 24 fatalities...
torso fatalities: liu,johnny,reptile,sub-zero (2x),tsung,scorpion
decapitations: kung lao,johnny,reptile,kitana,jax,baraka

in MK Trilogy and MK3 1/3 of all fatalities were "explosion fatalities"
 
I still have sort of a "wait and see" attitude regarding fatalities since most people who seem dissatisfied are that way because with the exception of a few, there haven't been too many that are overly elaborate and I think some people are missing that. It's understandable to feel this way but I don't think the fatalities revealed so far have necessarily been BAD or anything they just aren't as "Surprising" as we've maybe seen before. It's about presentation and die hard fans want to see a lot of character in their fatalities and as this post and others have stated some of them can seem a bit dry or predictable.

I'm still hoping that we see some variety as more are revealed as I'm sure we haven't seen everything they have to offer yet. Even if they all turn out to be cut point with the characters signature move/weapon, I'll still be fairly happy. Though it is a major staple of the series, there's more to the game than that and in the end it all will come down to: I Won. The opponent is in peices. Mission Complete.

After all, it could be worse. Armageddon gave me a newfound respect for fatalities since the Kreate-A-Fatality system felt generic and it eventually even became a moot point in the game for most players.
