As fun as Injustice were, I'm ready to get back to playing a new Mortal Kombat game. Looks like I don't have to wait too long!
Anyway, this is just a teaser trailer, with Scorpion and Sub Zero duking it out and the former doing a new fatality. From the looks of it, there will be environmental damage, and you can also wield... tree branches?
Thoughts? Wish list? Who do you hope will appear in the next MK, and what do you wish Netherrealms would improve upon?

Lots of new characters. Its risky and designing them would be a though challenge, but thats probably the biggest change you can do after 9 which was essentially a remake with the roster being made of everyone's favorites.

Mortal Kombat and new characters never ends well, there were a couple good ones in Deadly Alliance but then after that it was just tripe It is kind of a risk; although I think it would suck if they just do new games with the same characters over and over, they need to work on their design/implementation because most of them are kind of shitty. I actually liked some of the really stupid ones from Deadly Alliance because of how weird they were, as opposed to the really boring and generic new player characters in MK4 (although the two villains were pretty memorable in that one). yo mama so ugly that when she play mortal kombat scorpion say "stay over there" yo mama so smelly that when bo rai cho farts no one notices! Yeah, I think they need to add a dirty dozens mode. Anyone else have ideas on minigames? Snarboo and Lance had some great ones in chat. I think they need to do a new Test Your Sight where it's a ripoff of Brain Age, and you have like a second to look at someone exploding and then come up with the right number of duplicated skulls/ribcages/etc coming out of the one person. As for the game itself, I hope that it has a better story mode than Injustice did, that was a real disappointment. Part of the problem was that the final boss was just a playable character - it would've been nice for them to have a much different version of Superman at the very least. |

I'm looking forward to this SO hard, because I'd honestly say that MK9 was the best fighting game of the PS3/360 generation, in my own personal opinion. At least, maybe next to Skullgirls. I just felt like in terms of gameplay and pacing, it just did everything so right. And it's coming out next year? Man, ever since MK9, the wait for these things gets longer and longer. >:
Also, apparently this game will have "multiple versions of each character", so it'll be interesting to see how that works out.

Did you play kof13? That was the only fighter I liked more than mk9. I don't think anyone was prepared for how good mk9 was lol |

But, see, my problem is that I'm generally so awful at SNK games that I can't really rate them fairly. I mean, KOF13 certainly isn't bad or anything, I just... don't get it, I guess. |

Snarboo and Lance had some great ones in chat. ...did I? Also, yeah, while the majority of the DA/Deception/Armageddon characters are ehh, it would've still been nice to see a few more other than Kenshi. |

I really hoped for the announcement of a new Mortal Kombat after the DLCs for Injustice were finished. I hope the next story mode will avoid the sudden acceleration MK9 suffered at some point (I can do with so many character deaths, but not when most of them are killed in a single scene), and if some characters from the post-MK4 era beside Shinnok are re-introduced, I expect them to have better design and characterization.
BTW, it will be a cross-gen title - PS3 and 360 too but unless it will be very dated technically, I'd expect a massive downgrade (like 30fps instead of 60). Oh, and a PC version should come out concurrently this time.

I'm really hoping it isn't cross-gen. Honestly, it would make any sense for them to create it that way. Think back to 2007. How many games were getting PS2 versions to go along with the PS3 ones? It's just not something that usually happens, precisely because it puts such a horrible limit on what the developers can do with the next gen version.
My only hope is that they do another hand wave and make everyone alive again, because they really, really wrote themselves into a corner last time. "Uh oh, everyone's dead at the end of MK: Armegeddon. How do we undo this?" "Go back in time before it all happened, then KILL EVERYONE AGAIN!"
smh

Hey, it's possible they can go back and make the MK4 losers into decent characters. I mean, look at Stryker, from MK3:  to MK9: |
