Garlador: "I also immediately thought that the Shokan skeleton could be Sheeva's. If nothing else, it proves that it wouldn't be hard to make her since they already have a Shokan skeleton prepped and ready to be skinned."

I agree with you. It could be Sheeva. Ed did say if you think of games before umk3 they are probably going to be in it.

This is the first video that really made me want to play this game. Liu Kang is awesome! I like how his xray reminds us of his past fatality.

If xrays are this vicious, just think how crazy the rest of the fatalities will be. I think we still are seeing just the tip of the ice berg. This game is going to rock!

Anyone else see the fighting going on in the back of the Garden (?) arena? I'm loving the actual tournament vibe in the MK1 stages, helps you remember that the tournament doesn't consist of only 7 people or so. As for everything else?.....My friend thought that if I love this new MK so much I should marry it....Well, MK9? Will you make me the happiest (and, consequently, most pathetic :P) man on Earth?

Did anyone notice that Reptiles teeth look more fierce now???

I wonder if they changed it because people were saying he looked like pac-man with tiny teeth.

So it looks like Kitana's got 3 hits in the X-ray: back of the head, in the eye sockets, and that one we saw a while ago where she teleported and they were in the shoulders. Ab-so-loot-lee love it.

It was weird how Ermac's second hit was still in color, but it's whatever.

I'm so glad they revealed Liu Kang just so everyone can stop complaining. Geez...
But it's so weird how they were saying that some characters would actually change, including appearance, and yet no one is really that different. And I hope they didn't just say that because of Human Smoke, for some reason i actually want to see someone obviously changed.

I like that idea about Brutalities when you perform an X-ray as a finisher, it makes sense and hopefully they go by that. Of course, they'd have to make them a lot more intense.

Very nice update, though. Who said NRS was worthless? confused

You know after watching it again, i like it how liu kangs x-ray is like his mk1 fatality. Its like a nod to the fans.

Also does this mean shang tsung will have an x-ray? man grabbing you, morphs as you to do your x-ray. eaither that or he uses his skulls to crush your legs.

Ya know, after the Mileena wallpaper, I was actually kinda worried Liu wouldn't have his bandana. I'll say it again: he looks fantastic. I envy the shit out of those pants.

Did anyone else notice that just before Ermac did his x-ray, on the bridge behind them there were two people fighting. Thought it was a cool find.

I'm surprised Cyrax and Sektor didn't have their own skeleton mapping [with their bones and organs being replaced by mechanical parts and a metal skeleton and all that]

Hot damn, Liu's X-Ray is his Cartwheel Uppercut! Fucking nice.

I was kinda hoping the last hit of it would turn out to be an Enter the Dragon Stomach-Stomp...but still, this is almost exactly what I asked for.

Also, his torso looks nice and thin. I like his build. Pretty Bruce Lee-esque, just the way I like him. AND he's wearing the MK logo on his belt, which gives me hope he still wins the tournament.

Stryker looks a bit more bulky and traditional than I was expecting, but not bad. They seem to have actually made the "Star Trek Shirt" work for him by ditching the stomach part and making the arm stripes armor. I dig the "S.W.A.T." on his hat and especially the badge around his neck.

They did that because Sektor and Cyrax are still human-ish underneath the cyborg armour. Although it would make a little more sense to have some cyborg parts.

Stryker WOOT! Not the greatest picture but so far I like what I see. Can't wait to see him in action. Also great to see Baraka and Liu Kang. That should put most of the complaining to bed.

Also, I noticed if you listen close, you can hear Liu making one of his trademark "WAH" noises! He's not all quiet and boring like in MKvsDCU. So awesome, can't wait to see more of him.

LOL!! Goro's face is priceless.

Goro - "What'd you call my father!?"
Jax - "Nothing....uh.....AHHHH MY SKULL!"

God, it's so painful watching it but that capture is hilarious.

EPIC VIDEO!!

Wow...just wow. Goro's X-Ray is the best so far. I cringed for Jax when I saw that. Ermac looks good as does Stryker, but I'm most pleased with Liu. He looks slim and toned like he used to. Not the bulky look we have gotten in the last few games. His X-ray is an excellent homage to his MK1 fatality. Loving It!!
Can't wait for April!!!!!

Seriously; who do we have left that we haven't seen at this point? Kano, Smoke, Noob, Kabal? Jeez, it's like they know just who to keep hidden away to get me all giddy...with Sheeva still a maybe, but looking likelier, along with perhaps Kintaro.

Kang looks great, and Goro's X-Ray is going to haunt my dreams. OW.
