yup, totally agree, especially the cyrax fatal. and also the reptile fatal. hopefully they were just works in progress. i know the snes version of mk1 was "censored" and had lame peach blood, i mean sweat, but i actually far, far preferred raiden's electro-disintegrate fatal in mk1 snes over the arcade head explode. on another note, i liked sub's snes mk1 ice shatter, too, though sure nothing can top a spine rip. going through all of raiden's fatals in all games he has ever been in, its kinda sad that i feel his mk1 snes fatal is by far his best fatal ever. there has been a ton of raiden electrocution fatals, but none worked so well as his snes mk1 fatal, imo.

Well his puiples dosn't bother me, because they are blue. Looks like lightining puiples.

Raiden's Stance



I agree. I'm thinking this fatality will involve more than just the victim's arms falling off, possibly a partial or full disintegration of the victim's body.

What that fuckin means is that his face looks bad. A thunder God, with a face that looks unshaved and eyes that have pupils all of a sudden? He looks like Clark Kent dressed as Raiden.

*giggles*
It looks like he goes "Oh, I wanna touch it, I wanna touch it... Wait, no, I shouldn't, I really shouldn't... but I want to touch it... I'm gonna touch it! Wait, no, no no, Fujin told me I couldn't..."
XD

fucken awesome im goin to bed mk demo here i come :)

He looks fantastic! Nice looking fatality. In game model is SWEET on the widget... also notice the lightning around him, old school style baby!!

Huh...

I didn't notice until just now that his mouth is hanging open the whole time. That looks kinda derpy. Hopefully it's not very noticeable during the game.

Love it!
Looking forward to his vignette and gameplay videos!

Well, he *is* very old!

As far as the fatality- you can tell the victim's shoulders and upper arms are already gone.
Hopefully it will be more than another limb-based fatality,
which are becoming this game's equivalent of MK3's explosions...

I hope he has pupils in-game.

Amazing wallpaper, cannot wait to see Raiden in action:)

I so snatched up the Sub-Zero one. That's nice.

A nice wallpaper. Look forward to his gameplay video.

Heck yeah, Raiden puts a shock to my system.

It looks great except for the eyes.

Pupils look stupid. I like the electric tails around him, but I don't like how his mouth is gaping the entire time.

This is near perfect, juts remove the pupils.

His stance: Seems interesting. LOVE the fact he has his lightningparticle effects, but it doesn't seem up to par with MKDA's version.


/Containing excitement

Agreed.

It's beautiful otherwise. I like that they seem to be trying to show him as a more aggressive character. Instead of the nobel stances this time. I like the noble stuff 100% but, this is a change I've been asking for - for at least 5yrs now.

Remove those pupils and we're good...Not even in mortal form should he have them!

Bring it on!!

I dig it!! I wasn't really thrilled about his look when the teaser launched back in June, but seeing this, I can totally dig.

He looks like a bad ass, ready to fuck someones girlfriend.

The pupils don't bother me much. At least he is fuckin' some shit up.

Holy shit! The electricity on his body is back!?!

Never been interested in Raiden in the slightest, Fujin is the superior god IMO. He has quite a boring design. Nothing godly at all!

*Yawns loudly*

Yay...Raiden is here.

Gotta get up, gotta go
