Gail Simone posted a fun question on Twitter the other day... the MK team go insane and start getting more guest characters but instead of taking them from action movies they get licenses from comedy movies... there were some good choices in there... my completely unbiased pick for best was Beatlejuice... posted by me <_< >_> I mean wacky body morph moves... and the friendship writes itself with The banana boat song... seriously though probably one of the best ones was this... which basically even has the fight intro setup You know they'd have Gomez go back and forth with a character and have him retort with, "Of Course!" before the fight starts. It would be awesome. his friendship could be pulling a cord then Lurch coming in to play the Harpsichord if they want to get real creative have the fatality be a quick tour of hte house... like the exploding train tracks, and the man eating plant, etc.

Was Hancock (the Will Smith film) a comedy movie? If so, him. Also, it's more a black comedy...but The Toxic Avenger. The Toxic Avenger is an absolute must for this series. He's comedic, sophmoric, and violent as all hell... I'm honestly surprised Lloyd hasn't offered his license up to Netherealms to use.

So I hear this game recently went cross-platform for online. Can you play ALL the online modes between PS4 vs Xbone consoles?

I knew there was a reason I had the 17th noted down for something. May pick this up for the ultimate edition.

Considering the kind of character he is and the franchise he hails from, Toxie would have a lot of suitably gruesome sigs and fatalities.

The skins for this pack are weirdly all over the place? Rambo's are mostly pretty good, Rain's are kind of universally crap (which is weird since his design was on point in Armageddon, 9, and X), Mileena's are okay.
Lack of Klassic Rain and Mileena skins screams that they're going to charge you for them later.

I don't understand Rain's Fatality being Bohemian Rhapsody but I don't mind it.

I appreciate the fact that Rambo's Friendship is named Demolition Man.

Mileena's 2nd fatality had me churning. Dear god.

This game just completely refuses to give me random Rain skins or gear. Literally the only skin I've unlocked for him is his tutorial one; otherwise it just keeps giving me augments and taunts.

So far, played a lot of Mileena, a decent amount of Rain, and Rambo exists too I guess. Mileena's very fun, especially with the Rolling Thunder move that essentially turns her regular roll into something more like Silver Sonic from Sonic 2 on the Mega Drive, a roll with an unpredictable jump in the middle. She's really good for mobility around the arena. Also really like her more savage Tarkatan skin with the undercut. {Spoiler}Also her ending was weirdly sweet for a villainous character. Sure, she kills Kitana and takes her place in the family, but the aspect of never being accepted except by Tanya and her new child was quite poignant, and I'm glad at least one gay couple get a happy ending in at least one timeline.

I do kind of appreciate that there've been three MK games since the timeline reset, and in each one Mileena is different in appearance/voice/overall demeanor...well, outside of the whole "vicious face-eater" thing, that's pretty consistent.

Just made the mistake of finally trying to unlock the Shao Kahn announcer voice. I have never in my f***ing life seen a game so incompetently put together that the tutorial is somehow the most difficult part of it, but then everything changed when I ran into the Baraka / Skarlet perfect blocking bullshit. I spent about 30 minutes on that before deleting the game out of rage.

The only tutorial thing that really frustrated me was the Raiden side-switching combo. Took me probably a hundred attempts spread over months.

That Raiden one probably is why I was pissed off enough for the other one to be where I snapped. Valid. I think I did the flawless block ones more by luck than anything else, but the Raiden one requires such perfect timing that even when it feels like you're doing it right it can still fail. It's the kind of thing that 99% of people could never pull off in-game anyway so there's no real need to teach it, could just put an option for high level players somewhere in the practice mode.

That Raiden tutorial where you have to juggle the opponent has made me want to toss my ps4 pro out the f******** window. Such bullshit.
