Ok, this has bugged me about the last few MK titles. Within a few weeks of the game coming out, IGN and other sites start showing fatality videos. Why? To me, part of the fun and mystery of the MK games is seeing fatalities for the first time while youre playing the game.

What they should do is make it so the game itself gives you clues about the specific motions for doing fatalities. Same thing with hidden characters....like in MK2 when fighting in the Forest you would sometimes see Smoke peeking out behind the trees.. Thats the kind of stuff that MK needs to have...

My very first memory of anything Mortal Kombat related, my very introduction to the series, was when I was in 4th or 5th grade, seeing pictures of every single fatality in MK2, in an issue of...I think it was Gamepro. That's what made me say "I want to play that game" and I've been a fan ever since.
Mystery is highly overrated.

I would think it's because they know that in comparison to the fatalities of old these are lackluster, so they're showing us the worst straight off the bat so we know not to let our expectations get out of proportion.

You don't have to watch fatalities. Save the moment if you wish.

If you don't like it then just don't see it. There, problem solved. And even if, it'll be hard figuring out fatalities unless you use cheats.

They're showing the Fatalities early so you could be disappointed ahead of time and (while you have such low expectations) not expect much while playing the actual game.
