Allrighty, here we go.
Why the Minotaur motaro?
In Motaro's ending,
Spoilers: (Highlight to reveal)
it claimns that Shao khan turned he and the rest of the centuars into minotaurs,
thus explaining Motaro's two legs.
The way it really works, is that the four legged Motaro was FAR too many pixels to have on the screen at once for online play, maybe even single player.
Ed Boon claims that he will wipe the slate clean and make a whole slew of new characters.
My opinion, the whole Kreate a Fighter thing was for him. He's online watching our custom made kombatents, seeing which ones he's gonna use in the next game. Which I think kicks much butt.
The Endings suck. End of story.
The endings suck because the game was allready taking quite a while to make. The producers freaked out and completely skipped writing good endings so we could get the game on time.
Smoke doesn't have a weapon because they wanted to leave the spirit of good ol' hand to hand fighting alive.
Blaze's death is the same as Onaga's because who doesn't like to watch stuff explode?
Noob is backwards for Boon. Ed Boon. He had to fit himself into the game somewhere.
Boss characters are not available in the Kreate a Fighter because every freakin body would make an invincible Blaze/Onaga/Shao Khan combo, thus taking way too much memory and screwing us all to boot. (Shao Blaznaga?)
Why Motor Kombat? Cause they could. Why not chess Kombat? Cause they suck.
Shang Tsung and Quan Chi died in their first fight with Onaga in mortal Kombat Deception. Why are they back? because it's a video game. Live with it.
All of the characters (except a few) are available from the start because Midway wanted people to shoot for online as soon as possible and kick the crap outta people with their favorite dudes.
Got any more you can add?
