Nah, James Fink's a lot more than a fan. He worked on the home console versions of the old games, and does know people at NRS.

I think this guy's definitely legit:

What are the chances of seeing Forrest Fox in MKX?? — I like DLC http://t.co/UFGR8g7Tk9

— James Fink (@jamessmk) February 2, 2015 Why say he likes DLC? Everyone else has thought he wouldn't be in the game in any way at all, roster or DLC.

I'd love Erron Black to be an actual character. I love his design and the idea of a gunslinger in MK. However, I'm not really buying this. If it's true though, great.

I am loving the tweets on this guy's feed.

Even the people asking questions are starting to be cryptic: "Can I wipe black ink from my blue clothes?" so if Fink's answer is legit then that means Sub-Zero in the game is not Bi Han. hahaha

Q: Is Jarek on the roster?
A: Nah

Soooo.....Jarek dies in comic I guess...lolwhoops.

Yeah but he also said there are more Black Dragon members; he practically deconfirmed Jarek & Tremor soooo.... Tasia and Kabal; Kabal with the variations of Nomad, Blades and Sword-Smith?

He also said he actually has no idea who the Sub-Zero in the game is, though.

Ugh fuck, someone needs to ask him about Kenshi.

Could he be saying that simply because NRS still haven't announced that it's a de-cybered Kuai Liang because it would ruin the "WTF?!" factor of people believing Cyber Sub-Zero couldn't be revived in his original human form due to him being a Cyborg in the Netherrealm?

...surely,if this is all true, he's violating an NDA? NRS and WB wouldn't be so careless as to give someone access to all the relevant info on the game without contractually guaranteeing their silence?

Look at guys on TYM who have been testing and who do know all the characters: 16bit and pimpinjim and REO. Not a word about anything, cryptic or otherwise. I dunno guys, I think this is a merry goose chase

Hey, this shit's fun so who cares?

Q: How are you feeling about MKX? Presentation wise? Competitively? See anything you agree/disagree with?

A: For me this will be last run with MK? Before I am put out in the pasture. One last Baraka and Lao run. Look forward to all styles battling out for top spot. Nothing negatively impacting game thus far

Guess who doesn't give a fuck?

If it is legit I'd wager he's about to be made destitute. NDA's are not the type of thing to fuck around with

16bit said Fink isn't a tester for MKX

Well that was fun

That's that then.

Unless I missed some he confirmed;

Fujin
Kabal
Takeda
Liu Kang
Shang Tsung
Reiko
Baraka
Erron Black

DLC
Forrest Fox

When did he confirm Kabal?

You missed that he's just fucking with people. He's not involved with MKX, apparently.

On his twitter feed;

Host of The On Blast Show
New York · twitch.tv/theonblastshow
Followed by tyler lansdown.

Also, he just posted; 16Bit said you're not a tester. Thoughts? — Never said I was

You missed Baraka on the main roster.

Baraka's right there at the bottom.

Yeah sorry, didn't see him at first; my bad dude. You did miss Shinnok as a cameo.

Well I tried to get a straightforward answer...

Honestly do you legit inside knowledge, or are you playing games with people? — I play video games http://t.co/SLUyhzOdG5

He's also followed by John Edwards, who's an NRS lead designer, for what it's worth.
