His MK II look was good for those type of graphics, but I like his MK Deception look best!
I disagree. I think his Deception appearance looked too cartoony. I think with next gen technology and Unreal engine assistance-- they can pull off some really vicious looking Baraka. I wouldn't mind a new slate with a complete make-over, but if they were to use a rehashed look, I'd like his MK II look, rather than his Deception look.
If Jax can seem to lumber off the cover of Crackdown/Gears of War I'm not holdin them to any standards.



Something like this....with a huge belt.
Lol
damn.


But I like Baraka, I think he rocks.
The most important thing is to make him feel and look NEW! Let him retain classic elements from his classic looks like Sonya and Shang Tsung, but give him and overall change that makes him seem entirely fresh and cool, like the two mentioned above.
I hope they dont do to him what they did to Liu Kang and Kitana though. That would suck, specially because his look does have the danger to fall under the copy/paste category for some reason.


Butt-ass ugly. Other than that, I have no idea.


When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, and he looks you crooked in the eye and he asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yes sir, the check is in the mail."

Jack Burton laughed his ass off at the "huge belt" remark...
Priceless stuff...
To be serious, I'm liking a more MK2 look for him; I do agree slimmer and meaner looked better than his stockier look in MKD (although I think he looked okay in that game as well). As for his eyes...the way they seemed to look in the MK2 shot is by far the best I've seen in terms of intimidation factor. I think the empty eyes look suits him; other characters like Raiden, Scorpion, Fujin, etc. are really "set off" on the whole intimidation scale by their glowing, almost empty white eyes. Baraka, on the other hand, benefits from the dark, empty eyes look...hell, one of the other posters (Godzilla, I believe) on this thread explained it better than me, but you get what ol' Jack is saying, right?

Yeah that was a pretty good look but he'll be looking like yo momma! Nah I think that they should make him look like MKII with Unreal Engine graphics combined with being more vicious then I look foreward to playing him and fighting those who choose him

Ooh, themasterab got ol' Jack with a 'yo momma' reference.
I know you were joking man; what you stated is exactly what I was referring to. They should simply base the look on his MK2 version, not actually use his MK2 form in the game! I didn't think I had to be that specific, HAHAHAHA!!! But thanks for further clarifying my point, man. I'll be adding you to my buddy list.
And THAT'S what Jack Burton has to say at this time.




Turn on your light and they'll see you. Make a sound and they'll hear you. If you think it's scary being lost...
Just wait till you're found
