Catwoman's voice is hot, but it's not what I thought it would be.

I love how the mouths are moving to the words now.

I just can’t stop smiling every time I read these awesome messages. Like I said to Minion in the other thread: I’m more then pleased that my reputation precedes me. tongue

But, guys...I don’t get what all this fuss is about. No one won or lost in this battle, when I read the comments I thought this video showed some cinematic footage of the outcome of the fight, but its actually just a gamer playing a good Catwoman and a gamer playing an easy Sonya. I mean, no awesome Special Moves were even performed!

Now: QUEVE’S BIBLE!: Part 1

AWESOME vid!

First of all, I love the way we’ve been getting the order of the Mash ups and Fatalities in regards to the MK characters and the DC fighters. The top ones that are always picked are Sub-Zero, Rayden, Sonya and Scorpion (who didn’t get a Fatality Friday just because his was the first fatality we saw).

Sonya VS Catwoman:

YAY!!!!!!! grin There are just so many things that make me happy about this video.

Counterparts!

For starters, I LOVE the fact that they are both counterparts. I think it’s a nice change that they made Sonya have a female rival, but I wouldn’t had mind if she had been paired up with a male rival as it usually happens. I love how this girl is always kicking male butt around and not just females (most females tend to have females as their main enemies, and that shouldn’t always be the case, woman are just as capable of kicking male butt in this stuff, like Sonya does!), but considering this is Catwoman we are talking about, probably one of the most loved and well known characters in Comic book history, I am more then pleased.

Voices and Personalities:

Sonya:

One word?: PERFECT! grin

They nailed her personality perfectly and beautifully. She sounds tough, intimidating and dangerous. You seriously don’t want to mess with this babe or she will destroy you. I think they did an outstanding job with her personality and voice in the MK games that had character voices, dialogue, etc. (MKSM was great and MKA Konquest was AMAZING), but this is simply the best job of all.

I love the facial expressions as well, the way Sonya’s eyes glare slowly with annoyance and malevolence is wicked, same with the way her mouth twitches in anger.

She sounds as she should, her personality is believable, easy to love and easy to cheer for. I’m just glad they’ve kept her as a decent representative for woman in the game. This might be a “complex” issue for many, not as significant for some, but the point is, I’m glad we have this tough babe in the game.

Catwoman:

I truly enjoy the contrast of these two females.

In one hand you have: the tough feminist who can destroy any male (always pathetic in her eyes) who dare to stand in her way, and on the other had, you have the bitch (in the good way, lol) who prefers to act sexy to manipulate man (pathetic males in her eyes as well).

I must admit I LOVED and ENJOYED hearing her speak and move (“So if you could just maaaaybe”, “Not tonight honey, I have a headache...”), but I do wonder if that is Catwoman’s accurate personality.

From what I hear that’s exactly how she is, but I’ve heard from a few fans that even though she acts that way, she doesn’t come off as slutty. I don’t know, hopefully she hasn’t been miss portrayed (I’m thinking about her biggest fans, Mick!!!, get your butt here and please explain smile).

Point is: I think it’s excellent for her, it’s a lot of fun. It also feels like they nailed her personality perfectly.

Game Models:

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! grin grin grin

OK. WHY the hell can’t they give the other characters Sonya’s perfect hair animation????? I mean, seriously, I’m very very surprised, pleased and in love with the way her hair is animated in this game, specially the beautiful hair bangs that give her such a sexy-dangerous-dark look.

If you take notice during the entire video (as we have always seen actually), her hair bangs have a very superior, smooth and natural hair animation then any other character in the game. I don’t get why they didn’t do this for the others that need it.

Sonya looks absolutely beautiful AND tough, which makes me a happy fanboy (those hair bangs are just gorgeous!). No wonder she’s been mentioned more then once as one of the best and favorite models of the game. The detail is fantastic.

Catwoman looks very sexy and cool, and even though I have come to accept and like those goggles, I really hope we get to see her without them sometime in the game, because they truly cover up all her face and most of her facial expressions. I want to see more of Catwoman’s face. It’s kind of a shame we might not see more though, in the game.

Graphics:

WOW!!!!!

They look AMAZING!

The Special forces base is simply gorgeous! I’m super happy they finally gave us this as an arena, fans have been asking for a Special Forces base since MKDA, and now we have 2!!! grin

Look at the beautiful detail of the water and sky, and the way free fall plays when they fall, its unbelievable. This game is going to be so much fun.

Also notice the excellent body damage, the detailed costumes, the very sexy faces of both characters, and how natural everything seems to flow.

Gameplay AND Special Animations AND Sounds:

FUN!!!!!!!!!

First of all, even though it sucks we didn’t get to see better footage (the game players seemed to be new with the game, which is annoying because it would have rocked to see more special moves and more wicked serious combos there), what we saw still looks like a lot of fun.

I hate that the “combo breaker” looks soooo much like the MKD/MKA ones. Am I mistaking? It’s just so annoyingly similar.

Klose Kombat and Free fall both look fun and amazing.

BTW, did anyone else notice the very tough way Sonya get’s up at 0:47? I hadn’t seen that animation before, so I hope that means characters have special unique animations and not generic.

I also enjoyed the improved voice screams!!! If you hear Sonya’s pain scream after Catwoman does her free fall super move, you will notice it sounds a lot more painful then other screams we have heard from other characters.

But then again, her pain scream also sounded brilliant in a veeeeery early video where Superman threw his laser eyes at her during free fall.

I hope all characters get awesome+fun death/pain screams.

Overall Final thoughts:

* Sonya looks glorious, beautiful, fun and perfect. Right now, I’m the happiest MK fan in the world. They’ve portrayed her so well and with a lot of detail and attention.
* Catwoman looks just as awesome and fun!! I’m truly dying to see more of her in the game. I think she is going to give us some laughs. grin
* Gameplay looks fantastic. I’ve never been this excited for an MK game...never! (this is even more then my excitement for MKDA, which is still my fave).

Awesome video, awesome.

I’ll write my comments on Scorpi and Flash very soon. But I must say, I am very surprised both of this are counterparts...I don’t really get how, but I’m sure it’s going to work.

Yes it is unreasonable and makes no sense but I don't care I really hate DC.



Oh... ok. I guess as long as we're both on the right page (and we both came to an agreement) this won't escalate any longer... much respect smile

@Fenix: I mentioned this in the Kahn render topic, but I HOPE you can knock his helmet off to reveal his face. It's done with Scorpion and it should definitely be done with Kahn, that would be wicked.

@Vomit
you and me both chief, I remember way back when they were talking abotu being able to tear logos off the dc heroes chests I got so fired up. Really all we've seen so far are scratches and burn marks. Scorpion's the only one who gets real sick holes in'm.
