Oh man, Mortal Kombat is awesome. I read a novel (not the one based on the movie) where they divulge Scorpion’s name; Yong Park. In the book, Sub Zero came and slaughtered him and his family. He mutilated Scorpion and threw his remains in the river, and they described how he was pretty much nothing but entrails floating away. But since Scorpion is so badass, and I guess is good at being undead, that even while being a pile of guts, he swore revenge and came back. That’s why the movie pissed me off. Scorpion and Sub Zero are after each other’s throats in the games, but in the movie they were just Shang Tsung’s mindless slaves. fuck that
But that was like for the first games, last one I played was MK Deception and everything’s all different and weird. I spent more time in Konquest Mode than playing the actual game. XD
My favorites are Scorpion, Baraka and Cindel, and everyone has cool fatalities but…what really amazed me the first time I played those was The Pit fatality from the first game. Now all the games have several stage fatalities, some way more impressive than this one, but I’d want to be knocked in the pit for the sake of cheesy/classic.
And if I have to chose a fatality, again I’m going with a classic Scorpion fatality. take that, Sub Zero.
Also, according to the book I read, Baraka smells like spoiled milk.
I apologize for using your question as an excuse to generally start talking about the franchise, but I’m a long time fan and I never thought this would happen on Fluther. XD
Friendship?
