While I actually like all of them, and I was very excited when I started to see them, by the time we got to Shang Tsung I got extremely disappointed.
Let me elaborate:
Shang Tsung: 2/5
This Fatality looks
SO ANNOYING!!!!!!. Before getting into that, I wil llike to touch on the positives:
The visual and sound effects: They are amazing!

I truly love the way he grabs the victim and the way the soul comes out in separate parts and moves around Tsung. But what truly makes this fatality impressive is the
pain/death screams. Those are FANTASTIC!!!! You can truly feel the victim's pain and suffering it's brilliant!
THIS is exactly what all the fatalities and heroic brutalities
NEED to help the "wow factor".
Fatalities/Heroic Brutalities with weak sound effects and weak pain voices feel bad and empty and like the could had so much more.
Shang Tsung's is a perfect example. The fatality is simple, but the screaming of the victim is so amazing during the entire death scene that its fun and cool to watch:
It gives it quality. This can also be appreciated in Fatalities like the one of Sonya (her voice, the neck snap and the surprised scream of the victim are amazing) and Sub-Zeros ice shatter (when the body breaks).
So,
what's wrong with the fatality? IT IS SO NOT A TSUNG FATALITY! Hopefully this was just because his second fatality will be more gruesome and it will hopefully show some gooey milky disgusting skeleton, but if not, this is even a bigger problem.
I TOTALLY understand the whole "T" thing, and I'm Ok with that (because there is nothing we can do about it) and I've loved all Fatalities so far (except Flash's), but if Rayden was allowed to show a skeleton, then this Fatality should had ended in a very different way.
The victim didnt even show any body damage by the soul sucking....NOTHING!!! What happened to that thing they said we were going to see? If they are supposed to make characters age during gameplay everytime Tsung sucks a part of their soul, doesn't it make sense to show this fatality do that in a more obvious and clear way?
If they couldn't make the victim end like they did in his amazing MK3 and MK2 fatality....then they should had at least make the victim age, turn gray, white or whatever.
That was a
huge disappointment,
because I am very sure THEY COULD HAD DONE THAT IF THEY WANTED TO!!!! Even with the T rating, this COULD had been done.
I'll be a happy Shang Tsung and Mortal Kombat fan if they did this because his first fatality is much better and does something similar to what should had happened here.
This was very weak, uncreative and disappointing. I'm actually very happy they did the kick in the end even if I don't buy it or like it much (it doesn't suit him for some
obvious reason), because
the screams the victim does are amazing, and because by just having the body fall in the ground and nothing else happened (after expecting the victim to AT LEAST age a bit) would had been even more annoying.
This doesn't even look like the victim dies, nor does it look like the soul was stolen, nor does it look impressive.
I love you MKteam and what you have done with MK with this game, but really, The "T" thing doesn't stop you from doing something MUCH better then that, specially for a character that can be expected.
Even though I rated it very low, it's not even close to being as bad as Flash, but it's a bigger disappointment. At least the visuals and the sounds are much better in this one, and it is still a "pretty" finisher, but not a real Fatality for Tsung.
If ONLY the victim would had aged or turned into some disgusting MK3 like skeleton.....
Wonderwoman: 4/5 Now, this is the one I started seeing (obviously), and it was great!

I was very very happy with this fatality, but there are 2 things that kind of kill it for me:
NO REAL screams and yet another heroic body slam....I just DONT GET WHY they can't make the victims scream or suffer with more interesting voices and sound effects!!!.
They've done soooo well with some Fatalities and they've done extremely well with many special moves in regards to the people screaming in pain....but some of this fatalities
REALLY need that, like I said in my post above with Shang Tsung: THIS IS IMPORTANT!!!!
The lazy pain scream of Sub-Zero in this fatality is just as bad as the silent or lazy death screams of Catwoman's, Flash's, Superman's, and Green Lantern's. WTF!!!?
We really NEED the victims to have better DEATH/PAIN SCREAMS in the finishers to HELP the "wow" factor and give it a nice touch, now more then EVER because of the "T" thing. -____-'
But the reason I gave this fatality a 4 is because despite how simple it looks and sounds, it is still visually attractive and interesting.
I think the whole "slamming into the ground" thing is annoying in the Brutalities and Fatalities because we seen that so much during the gameplay and other finishers, but whatever, I can let it slip
because the way Wonderwoman lifts in the air with the victim hanging from her whip is AMAZING!!!! That was a very very cool touch imo. Seriously, isn't it awesome the way she floats above? Too bad she still looks plastic though.
EDIT: Something I forgot to mention is that I really like the way she spins her opponent, its quite cool, but, did anyone else notice the weird way Sub-Zero's cloth seems to get huge and very long??? I thought that was improved! This was a cool finisher, and a pretty one. I just hope the rest of the Heroic Brutalities (AND fatalities) have better screams and no more body slams.
Btw, Did anyone else notice the horrible visual GLITCH of Sub-Zero's cloth when he is spinning? Wasn't that a hair problem as well in the begging? I thought it had been fixed! You can see it all th etime, but if you want a clear vision, pause at 0:12 and at 0:13! -_-??? Superman: 4/5 Like I said before, the
new and improved version of his Brutality is FANTASTIC and a 100 times better then the awful fearly version that looked boring and simple.
We still have the same problem of most Fatalities/Brutalities though:
NO DECENT PAIN SCREAMS!!!! Really....they accomplished this amazingly with Shang Tsung, they hit the perfect spot with Sonya's, Rayden's is decent...but, what about the rest of the pain/death screams?
They are weak.
THIS has always been important and it's been a flaw in the past as well, but NOW, it is MORE important then ever. MKD and MK3 had some of the most amazing and best death screams ever. They should work like that. So, overall?
From best to worst:
1.- Wonderwoman: 4/5
2.- Superman: 4/5
3.- Shang Tsung: 2/5
and so far, from fave to least fave:
1.- Catwoman: 9.8/10
2.- Sonya: 9.3/10
3.- Rayden: 9/10
4.- Green Lantern: 8.3/10
5.- Wonderwoman: 8/10
6.- Sub-Zero: 7/10
7.- Superman: 6.5/10
8.- Shang Tsung: 4/10 (but this one is not that bad)
9.- Flash: 3/10 (this one is still better then most of the Fatalities in MKDA and some of MKT)
