Everything in here is about as acurate as it comes except for the 3 girls in the bottom right.



Now, where is Jax? Simple, he is not in the game. Gamespot simply got him confused with Darrius when they said he was in. They said he was in the Midway Gamers day video, and he is clearly not there. We have gotten no evidence of Jax being in the game once so ever.


Btw I posted this in 2 other threads, but thought it should be in its own.

I just made an official thread, you should add this in mine, it has all of the qualification I ask for, hopefully we can all gather info, and draw out one big conclusion. Thanks.

Could very well be that he isn't in the game. I for one hope he isn't. He needs to sit this one out until the MK team gives him a decent story, moves, and looks. Just my opinion though.

yeah, chicks are hard to get I knew I got them mixed up.

The important thing is that the characters listed in it, are the real ones in the select screen.

Speculation is fun aint it?If gamersday said Jax is in the game,and Boon was there as we all know.Then that is prolly a precise fact.We know the select screen.That is about all we know.None of the super unlockables have been revealed.Why they would make Jax a super unlockable is beyond me,but we shall see.

I truly hope they don't do that. It would make no sence to make him super-unlockable. I'd be pretty pissed to go through all the work of Konquest, and get...Jax. *shudders* Hopefully he's not in the game at all. [Shaokahn] awesome sig btw. Gave me a good laugh. Very creative. smile

I am also thinking the Jax "confirmation" was BS. If he was anywhere at that presentation I'd think MKO would be all over it.

That's li Mei. She's just in her default outfit which has horns on the helmet. Shouldn't Noob Smoke be switched to Noob/Smoke? And as for Jax, did anybody see that blue selection screen, one has Raiden highlighted, and the other...I have no idea. But towards the top of the screen, you see a guy wearing a barret and sunglasses, guess who it is.

Well actually Jax was in Konquest and he challenges Shujinko if I remember correctly. It didn't show the fight or anything just that Jax looked like he was about to punch Shujinko out. *Edit* I'll look at the video again, I know I saw it somewhere. Maybe it was the Gamespot video?

Are you talking about the E3 select screen? Because I know some people thought that Jax was on that select screen.

I think that Jax needs to sit out a game. Make the fans actually want him back. He was awesome in MK2, what with the back-breaker, the gotcha grab, the quad slam, the arm rip fatality etc etc. But both his moves and his storyline have been stale for a while now.

There's no way the MK team makes Jax a super secret character. My predictions for the super secret characters: Liu Kang and Shao Khan. Yeah, the former is more likely than that latter, but there is that Gamepro picture with Tanya and some other guy, and some people seem to think that the guy on the ground is Khan. Now I doubt it, but ya never know. I mean, hell, Liu Kang is back after all, and Shang Tsung snapped his freakin neck. All we saw of Khan was a bloody helmet. So who knows. I just think that if you're going to have super secret characters, they should actually be big deal characters. Jax no longer has that status, if he ever did to begin with.

Yeah, on MKOnline's Gamer's Day Presentation video exactly at 5:23 Jax is standing face to face to Shujinko and the box says the following...

"The only thing standing between you and the White Lotus Society....is Jax! Will you challenge him?"

Liu Kang IS on the select screen... All characters from the source code are main characters, or simple unlockables (except Onaga, of course)... If jax is in the game, he will be a super unlockable...

No, it's the one that looks like it ripped of the VR tutorial from Z.O.E.


Look at the middle column, second icon down, tell me this ain't Jax.

Oh god no.

Well maybe they just imported his same shit from deadly alliance for konquest mode.
Jax being a super unlockable would defeat the purpose of the term "Super Unlockable"...A super unlockable character should be someone that is WORTH the time, to unlock.


Jax isn't worth any time, for anyone.


This is probably one of the few characters I just hate, because his storyline rarely evolves, and when it does, it's just really really boring.
