Well I just watched the new vids on gamespot.

Here we go.

Darrius has very similar moves to that of cyrax, I really do think it is cyraxs human form. Because-

- He has two attacks that weve seen
- He has the spin kick like cyrax
- He fires a purple projectile (not like a cyrax move but you get it)

Also he has Leopard as a style.

Dairou has some cool things we've just now seen.

- He has a very cool switch places move, in which he changes place with the oppenant. This is good for being close to a death trap and then switch places and take advantage.

- He also has a foot projectile. Nothing special, but it's not bad.

There's other stuff too, I think I saw Scorpion's alt in the puzzle vid. Or it's the color change for 2p.

Thoughts? Comments?

Darrius is from the Realm of Order. The Lin Kuei (who were made into cyberninjas) are from Earthrealm.

Figure it out.

I am pretty sure everyone will be able to switch places won't they?

Otherwise what's the point with death-traps?
It should be a universal gameplay element.

Ha that'd be funny.

I wouldn't be surprised if "Onaga" is the code-name for Sektor though.

The "red" and "Japanese" in the translation make me think it's possible, even if he isn't a fish. You don't need to take the ENTIRE translation literally.

Bezou you know I dont make stupid specs. like that.

I actually put thought into that. Darrius having cyrax-like moves and being the same (color) I'm just saying it ain't impossible, maybe he's related at least.

I'm not saying it's not a possibility. The thought crossed my mind too. But the storyline we have for Darrius so far doesn't mesh with that theory.

Name: Darrius
Place of Origin: Realm of Order
Alignment: Neutral
Allies: Havik
Foes: Hotaru
Bio: Leader of the resistance in the Realm of Order, Darrius lives a life in the shadows, his ambition is to overthrow the oppressive regime that strangles freedom. To some he is a hero... but to others he is nothing more than a terrorist.
Hell, I even thought of a plot reason to explain why it would be possible. Cyrax's memory and indentity were destroyed to bring the Lin Kuei into a new order. If he discovered he was Darrius, a citizen from the Realm of Order, it's perfectly understandable why he would begin to fight back against the oppressive regime there.

I guess it's just the end of the round. Oh well, It doesnt bother me really, if you get so picky about video games, you'll end up alone at 80 yrs old, in your attic, eating spam.

It's been said time and time again.The death traps can be done in any round or end of match or turn off in options.The Cyrax theory is well...umm...no.But then again,who knows with mortal kombat.Now for the good things I have noticed in this video that they have added.I noticed that after you lose a round normally,you do a sort of martial arts readiness/meditation.I am very impressed with that.Also I was impressed with the sounds the characters had as well as BG sound.The gameplay looked a tad bit sped up (good thing).Let's hope the gameplay is alot tighter.Oh,one can only pray.

Well, I think that we might find out that Cyrax died after being sent back to Earth. Maybe from injuries or damaged equipment after his lava swim for Nitara. This way they can keep some of his DA moves alive, and spread them to different characters ala Darrius and the spin kick.
