Sub-Zero

Sindel, Jade, Tanya

1. Mileena: My ultimate favorite. She fights with saïs (huge saï fan here), is quick, has amazing special moves (teleport kick and ground roll are so useful and cool) and I love her storyline. Love her fangs and her vicious behaviour too. I love the fact that she was always misunderstood. My best character in any MK games.

2. Jade: She's just cool. Love the fact that she started out as a hidden character. Love her projectile invincibility.
3. Kitana: Has cool weapons, and is quite a babe... I used to love her special moves.
4. Sindel: She's cool cause she can fly and has cool specials. Cool story too. Like the fact that her story and character are developed in Deception.
5. Rain: Love his specials and outfit. I'd like to see him in further games.
6. Tanya: Has an unique weapon and is another babe. Love her outfit and hope the best for her.
7. Ermac: Now that he's in Deception: he cooler than ever! Love his specials and outfit.
8. Baraka: Cool and original character. Love his blades and fangs.
9. Dragon King: Best boss ever and has cool appearance. I'm eager to know all about him.
10. Kung Lao: Love his bladed hat and his fighting styles. Quick and strong.
11. Sektor: Best cyborg, and cool weapons. Can't wait to see what happens to him in Deception with the Tekunin...
12. Raiden: Cool story, appearance and powers. Although I miss his teleport and his torpedo dive. Now that he's mortal is very cool.
13. Kabal: Original character and cool specials. Love his hookswords and ground saw.

Although I like the fact that every character has his/her place in the MK Storyline, there are characters that I don't like to play as....

Liu Kang: Too ordinary and "the hero" (I hate heroes)
Jax: Has nothing really appealing.
Stryker: He looks like a loser to me, and is fat.
Kai: To me he's a pawn.
Jarek: I prefer Kano.
Drahmin: Not my kind of characetr.
Hsu Hao: Another pawn. Looks like Ourumov with muscles.
Bo' Rai Cho: He is ugly, barfs and farts.
Mavado: Although his alt. costume is amazing, he has no moves I like.

6. Raiden
7. Kenshi
8. Kabal
9. Ermac
10. Ben/Kobra

Characters who haven't been confirmed but whom I hope are playable.
1. Reptile (We've seen him in konquest, but I hope he's playable in arcade mode)
2. Frost
3. Shang Tsung

I'm loving all of the characters. They each are EXTREMELY unique this time around. The clothes are so detailed and thorough. I love the "dark" feel that everyone has. Sub-Zero's "Shredder" look is just plain awesome. He looks SO damn badass. Sindel looks fricking awesome. Both of Ermac's costumes are so original and intricate. I am loving this damn game.

So, enough rambling... here are my choices...

1. Mileena - She has the best makeover in my opinion. She looks incredible.
2. Jade - She looks very oriental and princess-like. She even looks somewhat like Kitana. We've seen both of her costumes already, and I like them both. I really like the Masked look.
3. Kira - She looks like she's a new badass. I love her attitude during her fatality. She looks like a great new addition to the game.
4. Tanya - Tanya looks like she's got a complete makeover. I think she's gonna kick ass this time around.
5. Ermac - He looks awesome. Plain awesome.
6. Smoke - I love his new look. He looks evil.
7. DRAGON KING - Is he not the most badass boss ever? Holy shit.
8. Ashrah - She looks like she'll be a new fun character to play with. We don't know much about her, but she looks like a great addition.
9. Kabal - I loved him in Mk3, and I'm sure I'll love him this time around. He's just a fucking cool character.

I am EXTREMELY hyped about this game. I have never been so excited since Mk2. It looks like this is going to be a revolutionary game. The deathtraps, weapons... arenas... characters... This will be one hell of a game.

One thing though...

I WANT SONYA! And wouldn't Sheeva be totally awesome in 3D? Man, she would be BADASS.
