Very excited for this game. Last game was one of the most full featured,and enjoyable fighters of all time.
E3 can't come soon enough.
Are you excited sw? What are your favorite characters, and who did you main? (previous game)

Yeah, MK9 was surprisingly good. Much better than anything I expected from the series at that point. I'd check this out.... just hope they don't go adding a **** ton of stupid characters. I liked the mash up of characters from the original 3 games in MK9, it was perfect.
Give the girls less manly faces this time, pls.
Hell, Liu Kang's face was too manly, which I thought was impossible.
MK9 was the best MK in the series hands down ( im trying to let my nostalgia of MK1/MK2 aside which i was fan back then ).
To be honest though i would like to see a next gen MK , even better graphics and all ... not another advanced version of MK9 . Lets go to next level ( which i doubt )

Totally agreed. I don't know what's up with NR Studios and manly looking girls.
Even Wonder Woman in Injustice had a man face. They just suck at designing women that look like women.

They did an amazing job. To be honest I wasn't a big fan of the newer characters after MK3, so it will be interesting to see how they change(design wise), and implement them to the story.
I'm hoping the dead characters stay dead in the story mode, and they pick up right after the events of MK9. I'd keep some of the characters(like Frost, Tanya, Reiko, Havik, Dairou, Hotaru,Kira, and Kobra), and introduce new ones for the story mode.
Arcade/Versus should pack all the characters including those from MK9.

I felt that way for a while and I do believe it's the most well made game in the series.
Yet for some reason, my friends and I have pretty much quit the game and moved back to UMK3. Happens every time. UMK3 is probably the most broken MK game there is, but it's still fun and it's always the one I'll go back to. Even played it for a few hours just last night, it just doesn't get old.
MK2 though, I can only play that in 20 minute bursts... MK1 is just unplayable lol
@ladyblue:
Agreed all around.
Considering how well they did rebooting the series, I'm sure they'll handle it well. Would be a waste to continue down the same stupid path they were on before.
Big fan of Scorpion and Sub Zero here.
I'll say that MK9 is probably the best entry in the series. I have faith in NetherRealm and am hype.
Scorpion and Kitana are my favorite.
Kitana was annoying online. :P
Always been a Mileena/Scorpion fan
Remember the gamestop promotion with those two? lol
Jade's the best.
It was enjoyable to play as her.
Since the beginning I've been a Sub-Zero fan. I loved the reboot but may hold off on this one for a while.
Reptile has always been my favorite ninja.
Id welcome a direct sequel to the last game.
My favorite characters are Scorpion, Subzero, Reptile, and Smoke.

I wasn't expecting it to be as good as it turned out. Even gave me hope for injustice.
**** Shao Kaun.

I agree. MK9 caught me off guard with how good it was. I'm hoping they follow suit with the next.
@ladyblue: The retro costume thing?
Yeah the one with the teddy bear. :P
Didn't see the teddy bear one, just the kiss one
Fan of Smoke, Noob Saibot, and Scorpion.
Oh yeah, forgot about this part of the topic.
Pretty much all the ninjas + Kabal + Raiden.
If I really have to narrow it down, then Scorp, Sub, Smoke and Reptile... and Noob, **** I'm a loser for ninjas.

I expected it be good on the sole basis that the gameplay looked good before release and it's hard for a fighting game to look good and not be good.
Damn it! I still haven't got MK9 yet. If I did, I'd be maining a princess and a thunder god like I usually do in the other games (unless if that thunder god is in his evil form, then f*** it).
@ladyblue: Nice Viewtiful Joe line.
I always liked Scorpion, Smoke, Kabal but usually main Liu Kang because he's easy.

Yeah the MK Ninjas are the best.
I used to like using Liu Kang, Scorpion, Raiden, Shang Tsung and Mileena in the older games. During the Deadly Alliance trilogy, the only playable character for me was Scorpion. That combo system sucked really bad. When MK9 came out, Milleena, Scorpion, Raiden and Baraka were my main dudes/ette.
Anyone ever wonder how Kung Lao could be the reincarnation of the Great Kung Lao if Great Kung Lao's soul was in Shang Tsung up until Deadly Alliance or Deception? Also, how is he the ancestor of Liu Kang if Liu isn't related to him at all? Let Mortal Plot Holes begin!

I got those game mostly for completing the collection. Kung Lao
Scorpion and QuanChi are my idols, but in KM9 Kratos was my main because his combos are so badass and has huge damage
Never used Kratos outside of checking the fatalities.

Is your backlog that big? :P Good thing is you can pick up the Komplete Edition for real cheap.
I was actually hoping for a second chance to MK x DC.
Wasn't a fan of that game. though I wouldn't mind another try.
MK is the best fighting game ever. Loved MK9 and was ranked 363rd online and with Smoke and/or Striker I was nearly unbeatable lol.
Nice!

Yee! someone got the reference. Kabal was pretty good to use.
Shang-Tsung and Nightwolf!
Tsung is pretty badass.
im one of the few who didnt like it...
they changed almost all the moves...i dont want to relearn every characters moves...
also the online was a mess...id buy new characters but couldnt use them because the other player didnt download a patch or something....random kicks from lobbies.
MK9 was surprisingly good. Though I get very little entertainment out of fighting games, not my thing but it's cool to see a new one coming for fans
Killer Instinct is better
Thanks for your contributions.
Am I not able to speak my opinion? Okay.... MK is childs play, real gamers play Street Fighter, Tekken, Virtual Fighter, Blazblue, ect :P
Not a huge MK fan(mostly played MK1 &2)and still have lots to do in KI, but since I skipped last one and Capcom seems to have dropped the ball with Street Fighter on next gen(as in....nothing SF related announced yet....wake up!)..... I will surely give this one a try......already have my arcade stick for the Xbox One, might as well get a new MK for it.
The last MK I played was 4 in arcades. The last console one was 3. Holy hell I missed out on a ton.
I barely know any of these new characters, but its nice to see all the people I do know are still favorites among MK fans. :)
Sounds like Shao Kahn is a pos in MK 9. They never stepped down from 3 on that front huh? I mean... he wasn't that hard in 3, unless he felt like cheating (which was a lot of the time).
