Mortal Kombat Deception - DVDfile.com forum for DVD, Blu-Ray, and HD-DVD

Frank Gunn · 09-07-2004, 05:02 PM

Let's get some hype going for the most highly anticipated videogame in the history of the universe: MK Deception! It's brutal! It's bloody! It brings back the much-feared Baraka! It has some kind of bizarre chess game in it! And best of all: It's LIVE!

Get it, get on it, and climb all over it, because this game is sure to be the cat's meow.

Only 27 more days.

elwood731 · 09-07-2004, 05:49 PM

Might be worth noting that the Sub-Zero cover is for PS2 only. All the others are on XBOX only.

decorm · 09-07-2004, 08:37 PM

Someone needs to post images of each cover for us lazy folk. :p

Dirty · 09-07-2004, 10:30 PM

I didnt think there was going to be 5 different covers. But anyway, I'll probably choose the Baraka one. I cant wait for this game!

Iguana Man · 09-07-2004, 11:05 PM

I'll hold my vote until I can see them all.....but I gotta say I'm partial to Scorpion...

"GET OVER HERE!"

Frank Gunn · 09-07-2004, 11:36 PM

Iguana Man · 09-07-2004, 11:41 PM

Baraka does look cool, but Scorpion looked just as cool to me...so Scorpion it is. (Hey man...I'm a Scorpion...born on Halloween - I had to vote for him!)

Thanks for the covers Frank!

Frank Gunn · 09-07-2004, 11:45 PM

Yeah, it looks like EB Games could make a killing off this.

Iguana Man · 09-07-2004, 11:56 PM

Off topic (sorry), but is there any word on their new and hopefully improved "Fatalities" ???

Naw, that's not off-topic.

All I know is that everybody has at least two and that there will be three or four "Ring Out" style fatalities that can happen at any point during the match. There will also be suicide finishers, too, so you can rob that little 14-year-old prick from Montana who's been kicking your ass all night of the satisfaction of disemboweling you. I've been trying to avoid learning too much about specific fatalities, but I think it's a safe bet that none of them will be as lame as Quan Chi's neck-stretch from 'Deadly Alliance'.

If it were up to me, they'd keep them simple and brutal like the classics. A nice heart-rip or a simple decapitation warms me right up. I don't need all that complicated cute-n'-funny bullshit.

And in 27 short days, Noto will learn the meaning of pain.

EM3 · 09-08-2004, 01:59 AM

Damn man if Sub Zero were here I'd get him to chill my beer.

Ruined · 09-08-2004, 06:18 AM

I have both on preorder but I'm gonna keep Baraka I think. Scorpion is my fav character but Baraka is clearly the mascot for MK

eception. And out of all the covers, Baraka is by far drawn the best, all of the other sketches look second rate in comparison.

lostwire · 09-08-2004, 03:46 PM

I have abandoned my status as Elder God to aid these mortals... an act defiant of the Heavens. I will instead remain here on Earth... as GOD OF THUNDER.

decorm · 09-08-2004, 04:45 PM

Is Kitana in this? She was much cooler than Mileena.

Mileena was a bad-ass bitch! Her Sai fatality from MKII was excellent, and under that mask, she looks like Baraka.

I imagine Kitana will be in this, too, but last I'd heard, they hadn't yet finalized the roster.

downhuman · 09-08-2004, 06:45 PM

Baraka!!!

All the way.

Frank Gunn · 09-08-2004, 09:00 PM

Many thanks to all participating in the poll, but Ispep Aloc, Kenshiro 26, Monster, myiamoto, Wurms, Sycowulf, and Mr. Furious, let's get your input in the thread! What features do you hope to see in Deception? Which characters do you hope return? Let's get some hype going, motherfuckers!

I always liked Kitana and her whirling fan of death. I don't remember the fatalities from mk2 all that well. It's been too long.

sub780lime · 09-09-2004, 12:24 AM

gotta go with my favorite sub zero

reapersaurus · 09-19-2004, 04:14 AM

Kitana's Kiss of Death fatality is up there in the best fatalities, IMO.

'Course, Johnny Cage's Friendship (?) was so good it even made it to the movies.

Pezz · 09-21-2004, 11:13 PM

Raiden GEts my vote

MJZ · 09-22-2004, 10:53 AM

I like the Raiden and Scorpion ones, but never liked playing as Raiden as much as Scorpion, so Scorpion got my vote.

dvdjedi · 09-24-2004, 10:36 AM

I've been a HUGE Mortal Kombat fan for years (I have an MKII arcade machine in my apartment

) and am looking forward to this game immensely. As far as characters goes, I've always been partial to Baraka & Kitana.

How much did that run you, dvdjedi?

I've always wanted one, but I never seem to find the space. I imagine my desire for such a thing will wane when Midway Arcade Treasures 2 comes out, but you never know.

dvdjedi · 09-24-2004, 09:06 PM

I bought it off of eBay about a year ago for $500. It's in a dedicated cabinet and in great shape. I must have spent a few hundred $$ playing it in the arcade back when it came out & vowed to have one of my own some day. Money well spent.

Next up on the list: a dedicated Killer Instinct machine

Frank Gunn · 10-04-2004, 05:45 PM

Those rat-bastards at Midway engineered their little banner countdown to expire early this morning... but there's no MK Deception to be found anywhere! Cocksuckers!
