Absolutely nothing new that hasn't already been said before, and I'm still pissed about there not being a one player versus mode. (hopefully my e-mail gets through)

Good find. It will be interesting to see the MK team members put their skills to the test online.

There IS new info... more characters are confirmed now, you have story details about Hotaru and Ashrah. Also they say the game is coming this fall, but unfortunatelly only in America.

More characters? All of the characters he named we already knew about. The only bit of new info is back story for them, which is pretty much what we knew already with an added twist.

Cool. Thanks man.

"I feel the storyline for Deadly Alliance deviates quite a bit from previous MK conclusions in that there is an ending with a clear “winner,” but a new threat presents itself almost immediately as we go into MK Deception."

I bet he's talkin about Reptile's ending. I knew he was gonna be the official champ and boss.

"Kombatants contain a lot more polygons than the last game, and use colored specularity with gloss-mapping to make them stand out, allow layered transparency for things like hair and...some more translucent characters."

Bet he's talkin about Smoke. Get it.

What do you mean no one player versus mode?

Well, Hotaru is "face" and Dairou is "heel"... and of course, 2 different characters...

He means the same thing as the 2 Player Versus mode but with one player.
You pick your fighter, you pick the opponent and play against the AI as if you were playing a versus fight.

You mean like the wrestling/sports game equivalent of an Exhibition Game? I guess that would be cool if it was added but I won't lose any sleep over it not being included in the game.

It sounds like MK is getting some really nice story development. They say that the opening FMV will kick major ass.

Well, this finally ends with the popular thought that Dairou = Hotaru; they're DIFFERENT characters.

I hope they soon announce what's up with Skab and if Ben is really going to be named Kobra.

Agreed. I can't wait to see what he finally looks like in his render.

They should have the 1 player VS mode, that would be great.

They could expand the idea in to team mode, like what they have in Tekken 3, DOA3 and I think SC2.

Not Tag mode, but Team Mode.
