Well I was watching a gamespot video for members. and I noticed the following new info that caught my attention. Those of you who have watch these videos from Gamespot the news is old.

First, was the combo system. Boon was talking about how to even up the combo to be fair. He mentioned about that you were able to break up a combo in the middle. So like those long combos that you are trying to get out of in Deadly Alliance, you can actually break out of them.

Second, I notice was the stages used in the Chess Kombat. He mentioned a few of the stages that would be in it. And one of them he mentioned was The Pit.

Third, He was talking about the character select screen. that you start out with 24 and there will be lots of things to unlock that the will bring you beyond what just lies on the character Select Screen. So it probably means more costumes and a lot of characters and mabe weapon of choice.

Forth, I noticed that he said that they are going to try to give all the characters in the past their special moves back. He was saying that how people missed the moves from the past mortal kombats and he kept saying Scorpion and Sub-Zero.
Which he might refered to Scopions teleport punch and Sub-Zero's ice clone.

Fifth, I also noticed a trick that Ed boon did in the Chess Kombat. He was using Bo Rai Cho and challeged Baraka. but as it showed him challenging Baraka, Bo Rai Cho threw his arm down and cloned himself as Baraka.

Also he was mentioning a lot about how the stage weapons will give any player an avantage to the game. He said that you could get rid of your stage weapon by simply changing your style, but it would be stupid because the weapon inflicts a lot of damage to an opponent.

This may or may not be some new infomation but I thought that I would share of what I have found off of some membership videos.

Well man this only proves you're a good observer,grin, i will have to agree that combo breakers are necessary, just to prevent silly infinite combos like Nitara's in MK:DA, As for the Chess Kombat i think it has a lot hings to offer more than just netretainment, i think this will be the dorr to unlocking many things.

Very goods new.

Those combo breakers and the 24 characters from the start are what sound the best to me. That leaves many characters to still be seen.

Great write up pal.

I forgot to mention another thing about the fatalities. Ed Boon said that the fatalities were their 1st goal. so it seems like they were worked on first so the fatalities should most likely not have too many glitches to them and will be very cool.

and the Hira Kira move (forgive the spelling), Ed Boon gave three examples and they were, break your own neck. break your leg was another, and my favorite was rip out your own heart.
I don't know where it's been said, or written, or for a fact that it HAS been written, but for SOME reason, I think I remember someone saying that Scorpions teleport punch would return, but it looked pretty different? Someone else who has a better memory than me care to refresh? or dismiss what I THINK I know? lol

Scorpion's teleport punch was in one of the video's. when he was fighting Nightwolf. Scorpion turned to black smoke and teleported to the other side of the screen with a punch at Nightwolf.

I believe that there is a video with a quick clip of Sub-Zero's ice clone.

Actully theres alot of videos that contain both sub-zero's ice clone and scorpions teleport, and its actully a kick.

I didn't know anymore details about hari kari's than Hotaru could snap his neck, I'd love to see someone ripping out their own heart, atleast the Hari Kari's will still have a fatality feel to them, just less gory from what's has been seen so far.

Good job combo breakers are being introduced, they'll be a welcome addition to the game.

ya these are welcome additions to the game, especially for someone who doesnt know the breakers and you do so you can whoop up on them...anyways when boraicho changed shape into baraka it was because he was a shifter, thats why ed boon picked him for his shifter, because your shifter turns into your enemy.

Does anyone know if Scorpion has maybe a Telport Punch and Kick?

Maybe just pushing a different button(kick or punch) would determine which he does.

cool news about the Hari Karis. I'm more excited to see some Hari Kari glitches than just Hari Kari's. Imagine doing a Hari Kari followed by a fatality (a la the baby beatings of MKII) or something like that...

Thats one of the Piece types in chess kombat, called shapeshifter I believe. It was discussed in one of his other interviews. Also combo breakers will be represented with red flashes, which really does not make sense, and I hope it changes.

The only thinkg I don't like about all of the topics covered is the 'choose your own weapon' option. That is, in my opinion, completely ridiculous. The weapons were matched up to the type of character in this game, not like in MK4 where they basically named off a weapon and gave it to someone. Plus, that would be extremely hard to deal with when thinking of triple style branch combos. I hope this feature does not show up.

The Choose your weapon was just a rumor. I don't remember where I heard of it. But I beleive that it is possible. because I noticed on the character select screen the Weapon style is in a grey shade, and the other fighting styles are in color. plus in a few videos we have seen Scorpion with a Ninja Sword, Scorpion with a Sword that is on fire (from a loading screen), And there was another Sword that Scorpion had Mugai Ryu.

But this may also just be the testing of weapons. Mabe.
