Yeah I know, I'm dying here...

I know this is a HUGE longshot (Huge), but if they're handing out demos at E3, someone who's going snag like, 100 of them and mail them to us all. Just tell Ed you need a case for us and give him a wink and a pat on the bottom. He'll understand.

(I know it's not likely at all, but hey, at Wizard World Chicago I've gotten demo-discs before, and they just have a small section devoted to video games there, not the whole friggin con, so you never know.)

It looks like Reiko has one of Li Mei's special moves from MKD.

Not necessary these styles will be the same in the final version, but also is interesting to see how can change the characters, specially with the lost of the 3rd fighting style...

I noticed a lot of those too. I also saw, to my displeasure, that free throws and OTG's will most definately be returning. What's worse, it looks like the plants that cause OTG's are MUCH easier to do now, and the attacking character doesn't have nearly the recovery time as in MKD.sad They can plant, recover instantly, and OTG every time.

I'm going to be depressed if the MK3 outfit an't in. Sorry but Stryker needs the original costume as well.

I was so looking forward to pummeling him in that outfit.

Sektor looks awsome! Lil revamp of the old look and seems to have all his signature moves. Oh I hope he is playable form the start. Look forward to playing with him the most. I hope he doesn't end up with Ermac's style though in final version. Ermac's styles in MKD aren't bad, but wearn't really great either.... I like how he can shoot a missle up in the air and then it comes down on the opponent like Ashrahs special move. And now having the torch as a special... That will be the very first move I do with him :)

I know it may still be early, but there is no word of survival, team, tournaments modes. Not happy about that at all.

dont look so deep into that dan, stuff like that will be the same most likely in mka

otgs should still be there. i noticed sareena using b3 and 2, both are free throws. but theres no way of telling if they are still free. id say there not.

throws in general will not be the same i feel, the damage will be done after the initial grab, and most likely escapable or parried except jumpovers like rains, which most likely will do very little damage, ranging from 5 to 10%

besides even if that dive kick fujin did was free, its only very little damage compared to being able to walk up and combo again.

plants in general so far seem to send the opponent flying much farther, though that remains to be seen

same with styles, characters that werent attacking were probably just given a quick style to play as. i guess we'll see at e3 what exactly is going on there. fujin with mian chuan just doesnt look right.

so far, i dont like what i see, the game seems too fast paced for its own good, blocking better have a better response to incoming attacks so you can block when an attack is right about to hit you. moves like sektors telepunch ( which is how it should of been for smoke in mkd ) look like they give you very little time to block or react to. its not looking good, in my opinion.

choy lee fut is back, which means the inf is probably back with it. if only someone knew what they were doing at e3

lol at jareks backdrop looking like a speeded up version of ermacs mystic bomb, BROKE

Every fighter will have two fighting styles you can switch to on the fly, as well as a weapon.

Weren't some characters going to have two regular fighting styles while other's would have one as a regular and the other a weapon? Have I misread?

Awesome news, can't wait for E3 or the next official website's content update.

Too fast paced for its own good? Hmmmm..... You really think it looks fast paced? Still looks kinda slow to me..... like MKDA and MKD.....

Anyways I like now knowing some what about the story of the game otherwise it being Good vs. Evil. Sounds like Blaze really will be the big bad boss in the game since in Konquest you suppose to find a weapon to defeat him... I'm hopeing none of that One Being crap will be apart of the story. Hope it isn't canon..... Just sounded stupid to me..... But yeah sounds like Blaze be the big bad..... And sounds like Konquest mode could actually be fun! Can't wait to get captured by Sektor!

Air Combat looked better and could be pretty fun and a nice addition. I was worried it would be pretty crappy, but looks like it maybe pretty good.

Create-A-Fatality I absolutely hate! I just wanna sit back and enjoy the show like always. I never got tired of watching fatalities over and over in any MK game. But now with CAF I'll probably end up hardly ever doing fatalities..... Or just do some thing real fast like just do a torch move when useing Sektor. Overall I don't like the idea at all....

Create-A-Kombatant.... I thought it would totally suck that we wouldn't be able to create any kool looking characters. Well in the vid it shows one that looks pretty kool imo so I'm looking more forward to it now than I was.

The selection of fighters offered a good sampling of new and legacy characters that included Shinnok, Sheeva, Kintaro, Stryker, Sector, Rain, Scorpion, Goro, Jarek, Kai, Sareena, Fujin, and Sub-Zero.


Its Sektor! and i wanna see him!! i hope has his own look and is not a swap on Cryax!... i hope he looks like the concept drawing on MKD in the Krypt!

After seeing Sareena, i got excited. To bad they gave her Li Mei's style of sword attack. Oh well, at least shes in the game and playable.

Argh! They gave Reiko back his Carnival Kick! I sure hope Li Mei still has that attack, if not, ill be pissed!! furious

WOW MK:A is gonna kick @ss.

I noted two thing, FINALLY Shinnok won't be morphing styles!he hass his own special moves, his special moves (from what i have seen, involves the skeletal hands).

hehe i also noted that Reiko has half of his hair black and the other half is yellow, let's see the story behind it.

ps:Some may say that it is his alt, but if you look closer to a pic of him fighting fujin, you will notce that here are two halves (one yellow, and the other is black, but it slightly appears)
