Things I've Noticed in MK9

So, everytime I play Mortal Kombat 9, I keep finding a few odd things here and there. I confess I may have been playing the game a bit too much as of late, and I'm just imagining things. I'm hoping that perhaps you guys have noticed this and I'm not seeing/hearing things that aren't there.

For starters, is it me or does Quan Chi's skull that he throws at you in battle sound like it's saying "Good day" to you all? Same question for Saibot for when you or the AI player performs an attack like Shadow Upknee, Shadow Charge, or Shadow Slide while playing as Noob. Are the skull and Saibot really saying these things, or just making noises that sound like so?

Tell me, when you fight Shao Kahn in Storymode as Liu Kang, does he appear to be staring at you when the announcer is speaking at the beginning of the first round? And by staring at you, I mean breaking the fourth wall and looking you dead in the eye type deal. Actually, I'm sure this is just a glitch. A really creepy glitch.

In all seriousness, am I the only one noticing this stuff or have you all noticed this and perhaps other oddities as well in MK9?

I'm pretty sure they do both say "Good Day" in their specials.
NRS brought back the unnecessary gibberish.


And I know what glitch you are talking about.
Sometimes happen to Baraka when I play as him.
 
Ha, when I think about, it does sound like they're saying good day. Just like how Kitana's fan throw move makes her sound like she's saying "Shadow Smash" and "Kitana." (I haven't Played with/against her in MK9 for a few months cause I hardly have time to play it anymore. It might only sound that way in MK vs DCU, but I think she says it in MK9 also.) Shang Tsung also sounds like he says "I'm a Zoid." in MK vs DCU.
 
One thing I noticed when the game came out is kitana making that gibberish noise that sonya made in umk3 when kit is doing her fan lift.
 
yeah that stare at you glitch is creepy, seems to happen the most with cyber sub to me,

Mileena is one of the few characters who actually talk while fighting :proud:

johnny cage? cant get him to shut up sometimes
 
I've noticed that Jade's boomrang throw is just like Batman's from MK vs DC.
And Shazams teleport is the same as Kung Lao's
And that Sindel's hair whip is the same animation as Catwoman's
Also Raiden says, "JOHNNYBOUGHTACAR" Sometimes when he does his flying move thing

They've been doing those moves since MK II, nearly 20 years ago.and gibberish has been in this game since MK I.
 
if you asked me the kast should scream actual words, not chinese, like marvel vs capcom or tekken

LOL! It does sound like that when Raiden does that move. Also, in story mode towards the end when you're fighting the zombified warriors under Quan Chi's control, does it sound like Raiden is making some strange noise when fighting? It kind of sounds like a few farm animal noises fused into this weird noise.

Chinese aren't words? Also, they aren't even speaking Chinese, it's just jibberish. I think characters should speak their own language. I don't like how every character in the game speaks English and most of them just have an American accent.

oops, didn't mean to say that. No I just don't like gibberish, after a while it gets annoying. It's almost no different than hurr-duur--derr
 
I bet you didn't know this:

If you uppercut your enemy on the pit stage the volcano will throw up a few fireballs.
If you uppercut your enemy on the living forest stage the trees will roar.
If you uppercut your enemy on the street stage debris will fall into the river under the bridge.

:D
 
I LOL everytime I hear kitana voice when she does fanlift or pretty kick.

when Quan Chi does teleport, he says "woolay" or "koolaid". when he's does trance, he says "how do you know my name".

when raiden does Superman, he says "johnny bought a car" or "gimmie my money"

I think johnny, Sonya and mileena are the characters in the game who speaks clear and understandable English during in game fights
