Mortal Kombat is known for incorpating things from the Science Fiction realm like Terminator, Predator, and Star Wars.



MK 7 the way it is going it would be called MK 7 Attack of the clones.




I do personally believe that there is more to the story for mkd and mk7 than meets the eye

It's only incorporated Star Wars (and other movies) in small ways.

The cyborgs originally looked a LOT like Boba Fett, and were going to have jetpacks.

Kabal is based on the Tusken Raiders, and was originally named Sandman.

They admit that they consider Liu Kang the "Luke Skywalker" of MK.

But suggesting the MK storyline is heading the way of Star Wars? In what way does MK7 seem like the latest Star Wars? Is Liu Kang going to discover Shao Kahn is his father, and Kitana his sister? Doubt it.

Also Cyrax's weapon is very similar to a lightsaber.You could say that the palette swap ninjas are like the clones in Star Wars.

This is such a bunch of bull. The way you guys are talking is to say there is original idea and everything is a copoff of everything else. Ya well I heard that MK was copied off of Stret Fighter because its a fighting game. Nothing else is the same unless if you count that there are fighters to choose from in each fighting games. Come on, give me a break. What a waist of a board.

How did MK copy off of SF? confused That doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

As for the Star Wars related thing, well, I can actually see Noob Saibot being Darth Vader-like with his relationship to his brother, Sub-Zero. I guess Kitana would be kind of Princess Leia-like. Then again, Ashrah does kind of have the whole Princess Leia thing going on with her alternate costume in MKD. tongue

The MK series has always had their influences from various things.

Are you really that dumb. The point was to make fun of how ridiculous this board is. So is Kano Chubaka because he has hair on his body. Please! Could you guys try any harder to relate two completely unrelated things.sleep

To FireBurner: No need to flame me. I was just asking a question, that's all. If you don't have anything constructive to say, don't post in the first place!

To Kano_rulz: wtf? I can kind of understand the T-Hawk/Nightwolf thing and maybe the Cammy/Sonya thing, but the rest are well...confusing...confused

Is this board constructive in anyway!?! NO! In fact it put MK down saying that Boon and the team copied from Star Wars which is ridiculous. But I guess you cant always read sarcasm as my first post was, so sorry about the dumb bit Sub-Zero_7th.

The other comparisons I can see, but didn't the SF that Fei Long and Cammy first appear in come around the time of MK2?

If anything other games copy off of MK,KIller instinct,finishing moves,Eternal warriors made in 92 tried it with their own vesion of shitty death traps and finishing moves, when MK2 came out.Star wars light saber???I dont think so,Cyrax's light saber doesn't make a weird Star wars sound,it makes an almost machine like sound.Although i read that DOA was made and influenced by MK and SF....This is said by the DOA creater himself he wanted to combine the ideas of these two great fighter,and make his own,with his own signature things like multitiered arenas,destructable environments.Deception got the idea from those games but added a twist,like brutal deathtraps,no game has got that like MK does,so brutal,i can't wait to see what crazy ass ideas MK7 will have!!!!!!grin
