Brilliant! Sub-Zero looks amazing! It's good to see MK getting decent coverage.

This on the cover is the original Sub-Zero at last! And no more Noob Saibot (Boon Tobias). Noob was just a joke in first place. They realised that making a kind hearted hero of an ice cold assassin was an epic fail and they brought back the original number one killer from the Lin Kuei. So yeah this is the original Suby (without the scar) and he's awsome, more brutal and vicious than ever.

So when does this come out again?

"Summer" Seriously though, I'd like to know as well. Right now the Super Street Fighter IV issue is still out. I know it's still not technically "monthly" yet, despite their name, but according to one of the higher ups at EGM, they said it'd be back to monthly by August... so it makes me wonder if it'll be out in July and then August will be when another issue comes out to make it monthly, or if the August issue itself kick starts the monthly releases again... thus making the MK issue come out at the end of summer.

*sigh* I want to know, damn it! Meanwhile, I find it HIGHLY nostalgic that their first issue coming back was about a Street Fighter game and now their next issue is about an MK game. It's the 90s all over again... might need to subscribe again

Updated this with the release date and a little additional information. Please remember to keep scans away when it comes out.

Just to show that it is out there. No, I will not post scans of it.

Ok, no need for scans, but at least tell us what's in it!!! What new pix or info is revealed?????

I called BS in another thread, but obviously I stand corrected man, my bad! You never know what to believe on the internet.

I'd rather just know that there's new info/photos in there... but not WHAT info is in there. I want to be surprised when I finally get to see read it myself

And on that note, I tried calling Barnes and Noble in my hometown to see if they had it... and much like other stores where I live, they gave me shitty customer service and rushed me off the phone, saying all they had was the Spring 2010 issue. They were basically one step from hanging up on me!

Well, on a more positive note, I'm going to another B&N near my gf's tomorrow... they tend to have newer issues sooner, and far better customer service. So even if they don't have it, they won't be a bunch of dicks

I don't want to reveal anything. But, I will say that the article is a lot longer than I expected it to be. It's a really nice read, actually. It didn't really give any new information, but it was pretty cool.

Did it have a lot of pics? show any new stages or characters?

My game informer subscription couldnt have ended at a better time heheh
*smooth operator*

Have you guys notices how deep Sub's chin is tucked? It's touching the top of his chest. Go ahead and try it an see how awkward it is.

Don't you know that a tucked chin is a sign of an evil older brother?
