Court systems would change the way games are made, by rating the age contents on each video game out today. All because MK was so REAL and so VIOLENT. That’s the road stupid Ed! Don’t go follow SF style, because their on a different road, a road that only they now how to pave it.

I still don't understand. You watched the trailer so you can clearly see that the game is going back to it's roots.

Clearly it is going to be bloody and violent again, I mean look at what Kung Lao was about to do to Sub Zero.

The news media and court systems were all blown away back then because something like that had never been introduced to the public before in a video game.

You have a lot of hate for something that you've seen less than two minutes of and clearly is showing what you want in the game. Violence.

The current trailer looks nothing like Street Fighter in terms of graphics or gameplay. The blood was probably toned down for the trailer so it can be put on more websites. The same reason they didn't show Jonny Cage falling on the spikes in The Pit and Sub Zero about to get cut in half from balls to face.

I'm not sure what it is you want that you are not getting in this game.

I totally agree, they toned down the blood only for the trailer to make it more accessable to be promoted publicly easier. Of course this is an early build of the game and it looks great so far. this game still has another 8 or so months of develpment. Everything in this game looks like MK2 revamped and modernized. I cant wait.!!!

my only issue with the last few MK's was the addition of uninspired characters, ie Mavado, Daegon, Dairou, Darrius....just lacked the 'cool' feel of previous characters. They have a great roster from previous games, and hopefully they stay strong with it and don't introduce any more lame characters.

i agree that hopefully they make this roster all existing characters from mk3 or before

Looks really good. I like Sektor's teleporting sounds a lot.

I agree, I hope they stick with the interesting cool characters, not some slapped together characters.

alot of the MK charm was those early characters - even with simple color swaps, the ninjas all has unique and interesting features, some were odd like nightwolf, stryker, meat, and some were tributes to established martial art images.
Mavado on the other hand was just some generic dude in a leather coat who stole Kabal's hooks.
And Darrius was pretty much a boring wesley snipes blade.
I'm all for stuffing out the roster....just please make the additions more memorable.

[redskullrudd]

plus although this should be one for the PCS thread.....I hope they don't ever make a Mavado PF if they get the license. Ever.

That looks pretty awesome actually, looks like they've gone the SF route with 3D graphics but 2D gameplay. Which is the right choice imo.
