MK9 | News & Discussion (Updated as news happens!)

Cage looks pimp in his blue tux!

Just wondering is it true that some old school UML3 heads have been playtesting this game?

It’s entirely untrue that any UML3 players are testing the game…

Sorry UMK3. You know what i mean

lmao @ Lucky

Ultimate Mortal Luck 3

MK9 Banned in Australia

this link too: SPOILER ALERT! http://www.kotaku.com.au/2011/02/why-mortal-kombat-was-refused-classification/

…yet Dead Space 2, GoW3, a shitload of other violent games, plus the movies like Saw ARENT banned there.
Yet for MK9 distribution AND import are forbidden. Reason: fatalities (most of which were in previous games which WERENT banned)

Sounds to me like somebody’s business rivals funded someone to make that decision happen.

Was any of that info on fatalities already available before? If not, then the Classification Board just leaked some pretty good info.

yea some juicy tidbits. I forgot to put SPOILER ALERT in there tho. sorry!

Also “up to four per character.” sounds like EVERY character will have four fatalities, but wasn’t it confirmed somewhere that every character would have two fatalities (and some would get extra fatalities from pre-ordering or buying DLC)?

I guess 2 fatalities, 1 brutality, 1 friendship

I think it’s just DLC. Haven’t they been talking about fatalities in DLC already?

Destructoid had an **ARTICLE**about the same thing but had listed a few fatalities that weren’t mentioned in the Kotaku article.

Have Quan Chi and Baraka been confirmed yet (aside from the Baraka screen during the x-ray video)?

I believe Quan Chi(among others) was…semi-confirmed when a leak involving audio quotes surfaced a couple months ago. Doubt said voice clips are available to listen to now. Baraka was of course semi-confirmed via that X-Ray Video.

So, I guess if there was doubt; there shouldn’t be now. I do wish that Netherrealm would just reveal more characters and more information related to the game…I guess they’re either saving it for March(I bet they’ll call it “Mortal March”), or they’re not going to reveal much else at all besides those story clips and those wacky “What if” vids involving the Netherrealm staff. Smart business strategy, I guess. Can’t blow your load like Capcom always does, gotta let your fans stew in anticipation while you show…nothing.

Here are those voice clips:

Also, here’s Mortal Kombat: Australia Edition

Don’t worry; they always release more information as the release date gets closer.

I’m sad these “road trips” and tests never come to my town. Oh well.

That Raiden wallpaper is beast. Rocking that shit right now.

Kabal and Quan Chi are both confirmed in a document regarding the Australian rejection of the game. The document talk about some fatalities, these includes Kabal, Quan Chi, Baraka and even Jade.
