Fuckin CHRIST!!!!!!!!!!

So sick of all these noob fucks spamming the SHIT out of these threads with their worthless bullshit.

Can't the mods do something. Anyone who has anything worth while to say about MK has been a member for years already. Can we put a cap so no new fucks can register?

Oops! I solved the mystery!
MK8 will be a point-and-click FMV game telling the sordid story of a martial artist who succumbs to demonic sexual desires by moonlight.

MKII was gory! MKD was gorrier!
MK8 will be: PHANTASMAGORIA!!!

*Sprinkles a grain of salt* Click

This is a better looking vid than the last one though.

1. They used the MK1 font at the beginning of the vid.

- for presentation, I have that font somewhere on my computer.

2. There's the dragon symbol on the hood of the car. + for presentation. simple lighting work, but it doesn't look completely "Photoshoped(program oriented). Looks like they had a car prop there, and flicked the lights on and off..then added the dragon symbol shadow. So yea, +'s for that.

3. Look at the left-hand of the screen for the first 5sec of the video...Keep your eyes there because there's a face that appears in the form of a reflection on the windsheild . Looks like Sal Divita dressed up as Nightwolf to me...but it's unclear. + for presentation....secrets?

4. There looks to be a face on the wrong side of the rear-view mirror. (could just be lighting, so nia + or - for presentation)

5. "Darker and Grittier" = Moon = Night time. The girl in there could be a new character from the moon.....mind as well say this to; that La-Luna may be her name.

6. The music seems reminiscent of MK3-T too. Like it was remade or something....I don't recognize it though.

7. Oh yea, the girl shifts gears in her car with stick shift....could be a subtle hint to the Joystick//arcade days....or "Gears of Wars graphic engine" UnReal Engine 3. idk.

8. One last thing I noticed, is the woman at the end, Opens Her eyes during the drum roll, and black out flashing..

Anybody notice anything else?


Psycho analyst = Better looking video...Looks like they tried to make it look like a fan vid instead of the visa versa.

Everything is still inconclusive though, so like i said:

That's the font from the first MK... Presumably an allusion of no importance to the first game, where the phrase comes from...

I think the "face" in the mirror is just a weird reflection on the outer casing of the rear view mirror.

If there's anything in the vid that has me particularly curious for inexplicable reasons, it's the weird hooked thing hanging down from the dashboard. Wha'ts all that about?...

Haha. At first I thought I saw faster death on one of the console things, but it says fasten seat belts. Is that unusual for American cars?...

Before the shadowed moon turns into the MK symbol, it's rimlit with blue and an orangey/yellow hue. MAKES YOU THINK!!! furious

I've never heard of, nor driven a car with those things on the console of a car.

That's just a weird thing to see at all, let alone this vid. Makes me think it more that it's a prop car. yknow? Who needs a "Brake" button beneath the stereo?

That's what I was thinking. I thought maybe it was a weird American thing, especially if it's an older, eighties car or something. Cassette? Pfft, like, is MK8 set in the past? Like, shyeah! iPod plugin, hell-o-oh?

Who needs a brake button, you say? And a big metal claw pully thing? An automotive combatant looking to... twist... some metal... perhaps?...

Actually, jokes aside... Imagine if they were going to compensate for budgetary constraints that prevent CG FMVs, and instead decided to give using actors another go. I can't imagine digitized in-game builds, but a greater emphasis on story would be pretty neat.

That sort of comes from thinking about this video and the supposedly linked clip wih Raiden in it, from earlier in the week.

I'm not inclined to start buying into these clips as legit just yet, but live-action back in the games? It's fun to think about!

That's not a bad thought either. Maybe they caught on to the fact that alot of people are still playing the old games and want to capatolize on that again.

The woman at the end of the vid does look pretty real...almost too real to be CG. Hell, if that's a representation of the characters graphics that they're planning to employ, it looked pretty damn photo-realistic at it's worst. I'd be all for that.

idk.....If it's still the full animated characters though, I hope they get close as possible to the way it looked pre-MK4, and supersede that with the current technology. Cuz when I play UMK3 on 360, it's still extremely cool to see the real people in there. 15yrs, and leaps later from those graphics technology.

hm..

I think the Raiden one is fake video...and if it isnt i would have expected much more from them than this crapy looking teaser video especially since the Raiden figure in it looks like a cut out from a picture that someone photoshoped and cut off the nose shape! ..i do like the other video though :) La Luna

Don't know what made me do it...but I went through and captured like, 5-6 of the 20 frames(I think there's about 20 total) of the woman at the end.

Look what I found:



Spooky much? lol Now try watching the vid again...click the picture(GIF)

Enjoy
