Mortal Kombat 9
For the people who don't know, Mortal Kombat is returning to its roots with the upcoming Mortal Kombat 9. The game will most possibly be the best of the series. It is being much more complicated. No more button mashing. You will have to learn which move can connect to which one, which can combo after each other, links, frames and everything. I always loved Street Fighter's playing more as it had these things which made the game strategical and something to get professional. But with Mortal Kombat I loved the characters and game design more, but the gameplay was mostly button mash for me.
Now with MK9 they are getting everything nice about the previous games into one game. 2D fighting with 3D design, every character has individual postures, the characters most loved (always arguable), non-random combos, new X-ray moves (like Ultra in SF4), Crypt, team fight, interactive areas and this time they are going for an "only adult" content (+18), meaning lots of gore  (watch Mileena's fatality to see what I mean ). The game is developed by NetherRealm Studios and is to be published under the Warner Bros. label.
And my only problem is it will be for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 only and I don't have these. So if you also would love to play this game on your computer sign this petition which is the most signed petitioned about the subject I have seen on the internet (there are lots) The petition
Yes the person who wrote the petition has a bad English but Ed Boon will understand

Yeah I'm so glad I have a 360 now... don't have to fight any guest-characters that **** up the atmosphere of the game (Kratos is, as you said, awesome in his own game though). Rain is pretty much just a ninja-raiden but I liked the style they used for him in Armageddon, wouldn't mind if they included him instead.
Just saw that perhaps leaked picture of Smoke btw. I love his more human look, like a balance between his full-robot and human appearance of UMK3. I hope that's his real appearance, shouldn't over-do the style of Cyrax and Sektor.
Ermac and Sektor are my favourite characters, both seem to be completely awesome in this game
Kabal seems to be pretty tasty as well though. Love that fatality of his where he kicks the opponent up and then just splits them in half with the hooksword. Sometimes the short and stylish fatalities are the best.
Saibot's style is awesome as well. I seriously have almost no complaints at all so far.
I would've really liked if the game would've had the ability to run like in MK3 though. The dash and slow-walk makes the game feel a bit Street-Fighterish imo... the ability to sprint gave the earlier game a quite awesome feel of intensity.
There are so many moves that allow you to travel quickly so I think it'll work anyway though

Rain isn't much of a Raiden character, more like Storm from X-men he controlls water and weather, not only thunder. He will be the first DLC character tho... Boon already said that
Yeah you're right about that, forgot about his wind/water powers.
First DLC character? Nice, but it's not what I've heard. According to this the first DLC characters will be Kintaro, Kenshi and some female red ninja (presumed to be Skarlett)
Too bad I don't have an internet connection for mah 360...
EDIT:
This is my favourite fatality so far btw
Awesome in its simplicity. POW B****!
EDIT2: Oh and have you guys seen this guy's work? He makes fan-made fatalities and stuff but they just look so damn real. Guy should work for Boon without a doubt.

To Crush or not to Crush 
Hadn't seen that one, that was pretty damn stylish 
Better than his other fatality. Wish they'd replace that one with something less slice-and-dicy. Moar toasty, FWOOOSH or something.
EDIT: Or ****, why replace? They're all awesome. more fatalities for everyone!

You mean old MK style?

EDIT: God damn all this hype about MK, now I feel like bashing someone in a fighter and my controller nor MK3 is here!

Sai don't have an edge, you can't use them to cut or slice, they're just round and pointy.

Heh 
Anyway, I'm really hyped about the challenge tower. Love it when that kinda stuff is included in fighting games... rather than the same old Story, Arcade, Time Attack, Survival and Team Battle...
It's really quite creative as well. Not just "ohh no now my health is depleting" or something. In one mission your arms might suddenly pop off, leaving you with only kick attacks haha
They've even got a zombie survival challenge, awesome
EDIT: Hey, question to you people who have played the demo: What does the flip stance button do?
I mean, I think I get the basic idea of it, but what use is it?

lol. Good one!
I would like to get the game but DLC is such a turn-off, especially when I don't have a connection for my 360.

Same here, but at least they don't seem to cut away 50% of the content and then go "AMAGOD WE GOT DLC" and let us download the rest later.
The game looks like it's gonna be pretty damn solid at release, even without DLC.

True. That's the main reason I didn't buy MVC3. I don't like feeling ripped-off.

God I ****ing hate Sonya.
Couldn't they have thought of something more interesting? I despise her voice, her fighting style, her clothes and urgh... god it's just awful.
I can tolerate Milenna since she's supposed to be über-sexual and then bite the opponent's head off. It's cool and all.
Sonya's just a stupid overly busty blonde though. **** it, I don't even think I'll have fun slaughtering her. I can't think of anything that is original about her.
