E3 may be over, but our coverage of it isn't! Thanks to our intrepid cameraman,
]{0MBAT, we now have winning pose videos available for most of the playable characters. Although characters share win poses and use multiple poses, this can give you an idea of what to expect. You can even see a unique win pose:
Jax's special "kicking" win pose. In the next couple of days we'll update again with an actual fight, so be sure and stay tuned!
In addition, ]{0MBAT has sent us his final impressions, which we will now share with you:
I would just like to say that I am VERY impressed
with the realism of the martial arts featured in this
game. In particular, the block button. As
opposed to previous MK games, your character
moves their arms and body to block whatever
attack your opponent throws at you. They don't
just stand still with their arms in one position as
before. Once again, I am very impressed.
Also, I thought now would be a good time to go
over the various alternate costumes the
characters wear:
- Scorpion: Black ninja costume with yellow
"beads" and other markings
- Sonya: The green and gray on her costume get
transposed
- Jax: Black beret as opposed to red
- Blind Kenshi: Blue costume
- Quan Chi: Blue pants
- Li Mei: Wears green as opposed to purple
- Sub-Zero: Wears darker blue (this will probably
be changed to match the render we all love)
- Shang Tsung: Wears blue as opposed to red
The only way I know to get the alternate costumes
was to play a mirror match. But like many other
things about the game, this will probably change
in the coming months before release.
