Guarantee when Jason's added his ending will have him have a run-in with the Lin Kuei.

Freddy...Krueger? Uhhhhhh...Random? Not any less random than Kratos was. Freddy at least is owned by New Line, which is owned by Warner Bros. Plus, it's been rumored for months. This is used to be my signature picture when the rumor (as well as part 2 of the rumor) was first announced:

Not any less random than Kratos was. Actually, no. Freddy has that claw, but he basically manipulates the reality of the dreams he invades to kill his victims usually, he's hardly a fighter at all. Kratos, on the other hand, is.

I know that he doesn't fit the continuity, and there are plenty of MK characters that could go in instead, but the prospect of having Freddy Krueger playable in a fighting game, and a good fighting game at that... Well, I can't wait.
I just hope that the MK4 cast get a shot in the next game.

To be fair, there are good reasons for both. The glove was probably for ease of animation since it could really screw with stance changes and the like otherwise, while New Line probably insisted on the newer look for marketing reasons. At least his moveset seems inspired by the classic one.

At least his moveset seems inspired by the classic one. Yeah, they're gonna push the "new Freddy" whether anyone likes it or not. Could be too that they couldn't reach a deal with Englund to use his likeness. *shrug* Some folks don't want to have their likeness be subjected to the sort of things MK subjects characters to. But seeing as to how Robert Englund is generally a pretty cool dude about things like that, I can't see him being the hangup there. It's probably like you said, and New Line wants to foist that horrid "new" Freddy as the official look of the character. Which begs the question: Which of Jason's many looks will we get? Floursack Jason would be cool for "old time's" sake, but I think they'll got with the traditional hockey mask and torn flannel shirt look.

Given Cyrax, Sektor and Cyber Sub-Zero in the game, we'll get this Jason: {Spoiler}Nah, probably the hockey mask one.

If they are gonna go with traditional hockey mask Jason which would be obvious.
It should be the best version (looks wise) IMO which is part 7 , in which kane hodder debuted as jason and his spine etc is exposed.

Ah, but judging by Freddy there...they MIGHT go with how his hockey-masked form looked in the most recent movie.

I mean he looks fun but....why? Because just one game cannot contain the awesomeness that is Freddy. Yes I know it's from the lame remake, but beggars can't be choosers. We are finally getting Freddy in another video game! Can you link to a site that posts the news of a second pack? Because yeah the fighters are expensive, but mk9 has been really fun.

It hasn't been confirmed, but Boon's said that there will be if sales are good, which they have very much been. He better have a few fatalities and they better be really really dream f***ed up They show them off in his introduction trailer. They are pretty cool.

He better have a few fatalities and they better be really really dream f***ed up I think they were in the trailer: Fatality 1: Freddy slashes you up and drags you to hell followed by a geyser of blood. Fatality 2: Freddy kicks you into a fire pit.
