If they'd just given Sheeva the penquin, this atrocity never would have happened!!! jk
I seriously, don't know. I guess they just ran out of ideas, like making Noob an anteater and Reptile a monkey.

i also believe that was really dumb and foolish, because they should've took the easy route and have him turn into a scorpion. I mean, it makes sense, it would look cool, and i i would have been happy. Also, for Reptile, they should have made him a komodo dragon or some other cool kind of amphibian.

*SIGH* I guess they didn't backround check that.

But still. It was pretty funny. lol.

I still get a few laughs out of seeing that.

mabie they didnt wanna be to predicable i mean scoprion is a scorpion reptile ...a reptile animal lol they probly just wanted to surprise you lol but hey scorpion got the giant scorpion animality in MK4

I always thought aht animalities, babalities and frienships were pretty stupid. I'm glad they haven't been in more recent games.

I have to agree, they were all pretty stupid. I honsestly think they were put in the game as a joke or a pun, to make it more acceptable with the ESRB.

sheeva is a scorpion

I think animalites are awesome, but i don't really care for babalites. Yes, my life-long dream has been to turn Scorpion into a baby again! Also, i think friendships are hilairious!

Though I am totally against Sheeva being something as lame as a penguin, I think that they should have swapped. She turned into a Scorpion, which would obviously have suited Scorp a lot more. She should have turned into a tiger methinks.

If anyone has seen the history of Fatalities on the PE of Armagddon, I know at least one MIdway member lists this as his least favorite fatality. It's rediculous, but at this point for trilogy, I don't think thy cared. They just wanted to get the game out.

I guess they didn't care. They realized -alities are worthless and so many people don't get that it's a joke.

Wtf. Where they thinking.

Guy 1:"Hey , let's give Sheeva the ultra-cool scorpion for an animality!"
Guy 2:"But shouldn't we give that to Scorpion?"
Guy 1:"NO! It's obvious he should be a penguin. I mean, why a Scorpion? Gosh, you guys are idiots"

Probably because a scorpion was already taken and they were running out of animals.Well that was stupid and random.

But you gotta admit, you would figure they would do the people they already had ideas for first. I mean Sub=polar bear....scorpion should equal, you guessed it, a scorpion. Or maybe the penguin idea was just to get laughs or something like that.

I KNOW IT IS RETARDED I MEAN A PINGUEN IN UMK3 AND MKT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Same with reptile i thought a bao constrictor but nooooo it was a monkey

I think Sub Zero should have had the penguin...

Reptile's Animality was by far the worst. He turns into a chimp... and chases them.

Oh yeah that was retarded as hell.I thought he would turn into.... well, some kind of reptile!

At first I laughed my ass of, but then I got mad when I did sheevas animality. But you have to admit him turning into a penguen was funny the first time.

Scorpion should had of turned into a Computer worm and raid cyrax and sektors systems :P

I have to disagree. The polar bear suits Sub-Zero.
