I've spoken yesterday with John Vogel, the "storyteller" from the MK-Developmentteam. I asked him about Ben and thats what he answered me:

[CH]-SubZero: Will Ben be the final name for this character? It sounds, uhm you know,
kind of boring compared to the other character names.


John Vogel: His name is not Ben. I'm not sure why Herman (Sanchez) called him that in his interview. Oh well.

I will contact him again about the correct name of "Ben"....

Back on topic, that's Great News! Ben was just too blah for everyones taste, and the whole Kobra thing was also a bit off the top. Keep us posted as to what his REAL name is.

I am (as you can read in my signature) the Webmaster of "Mortal Kombat Schweiz".

I am also like the Staff from MKOnline a normal person.

I have also my contacts in the MK-Developmentteam. Why shouldn't I have? Or better why should just MKOnline have contacts to the MK-staff???

What I wanna know is...

If Ben sounds a little boring.

Then What the fuck is up with SKAB?

SKAB people! An MK warrior named after the thing that forms when a cut is just about healed up. Pretty lame if you ask me.

Hey, CHSubZero, can you please give a translated version of the other question you asked John Vogel (it's posted on his website). when I tried to translate it through Google, it mistranslated some words (Vogel became "bird", etc) Thanks for asking John about "Ben". I wonder if Kobra is his name?

Ok, here the other question I asked John Vogel:

[CH]-SubZero: Are the stories for the playable characters finally written or are there some missing ones?
John Vogel: Only 1 story is not written. The rest is done and given to other MK-team members to read and check.

Ben was probably used by herman in reference to his similiar appearance to ken masters, probably as they had not decided on a set name for him at the time of that interview. It's probalby either Kobra (ugh) or somethign different. As far as skab goes, yea, i dunno how i feel about that name either, even skab backwards Baks sounds cooler, heh.

I am sooooooooooo glad they are not going with Ben. It makes me think of Spiderman's old ass uncle. I hope they don't call him "Kobra" either. Maybe he can be Johnny Cage in disguise or something.
