We have acquired the BradyGames strategy guide for Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance.  Some of the things we found interesting about the guide are the MK Trivia game and MK Chronology (timeline of all the MK games).

Also given in this strategy guide is information on two of the hidden characters. So as not to give out spoilers to those that do not wish to see them, we have put the spoilers on a separate page. You can see the character info and an image of one of the hidden characters here.

Our thanks to forum moderator Mobster4Christ for providing the image of the hidden character!

I thought this seemed pretty cool... A reader of our website, Phoenix, attended the Cube Club event in Baltimore, MD.  Here's his eyewitness account of Mavado's Meat Hook Fatality:

I recently got the chance to go to a Cube Club here in Baltimore, MD and, because it wasn't very full that night, got a chance to play the game and beat it with Sonya. For some reason I didn't get an ending, but at one point I lost to Mavado and he finished me off with a fatality...and man, was it sick. First, he dug his grappling hooks into the ground and started stepping back slowly. When he stopped, he lifted his feet in the air like he was going to do his grappling hook/kick move. But...about two seconds before he flew forward, SPIKES appeared at the bottom of his shoes. He shot forward and planted his feet in Sonya's chest, knocking her to the ground. He then twisted his feet into her body a bit. After that, when he pulled them out, I swear I saw some kind of organ (possibly multiple organs) come out of her body. Very bloody, but very very cool.

Thanks for your observation! On a side note, I want to take this opportunity to remind our readers we have a lot in store as we approach the nearing release of the game. You won't want to miss out! Also be sure to keep an eye out here soon for our new MK5.org Guide to Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance!

BradyGames, a publisher of strategy guides and cheat codes for video and computer games, has updated their site with a preview of their strategy guide for Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance! The feature takes the form of the moves, combos, fatalities, and strategies for Scorpion! The guide also gives a clearer look into his backstory. From the preview:

The ninja Scorpion had assumed for many years that Sub-Zero killed his family and clan, only to later discover that the true murderer was the sorceror Quan Chi. After revealing his treachery, Quan Chi then attempted to send Scorpion to the 5th plane of the Netherrealm. Thinking quickly, Scorpion grappled with the sorceror at the last moment and they were both transported to that forbidden realm. This turn of events boded well for Scorpion as his strength increased the longer he remained there. Quan Chi's powers, however, proved to be useless against him.

The main page For BradyGames's MK:DA strategy guide (complete with a link to buy the guide online) is located here. The preview for Scorpion's pages is located here. (Please note that you will need Adobe Acrobat Reader in order to view the Scorpion preview.)
