I like Sub-Zero, but I really like Sub-Zero’s brother Sub-Zero

@prsuave420 10 ай бұрын

What about his grandfather, sub zero?

Or his brother Scorpion who was previously Sub-Zero

That is hilarious because that's how I found Sub-zeros fatality in MK1 totally by accident playing my little brother I'll never forget him crying because he thought Johnny Cage wouldn't be playable anymore because I had his head in my hand with his spine dangling

Ahh noo poor little guy😅! But that would be cool idea for a high level Hard challenge tournament. Where you pick like 16 characters in Mortal Kombat and if they get a fatality you can no longer use that character anymore on your quest up the rankings. 😂😂

Fun fact about Scorpion: the original actor to portray Scorpion (and several others) was Daniel Pesina, who suggested the signature weapon for Scorpion because he himself is a real life master of traditional rope dart forms in wushu. He's still actively teaching today and hangs out in the rope dart tech FB group.

I can remember the year this came out in arcades in 1992 when I was 10. During school holidays we went to the seaside and there were tons of arcade machines, one of which was MK. Funny you mention at around 2:45 about the rumours of the game because........ after the school hols, I told all the kids at school about the game and I got detention for telling lies to scare the other kids.

@jimmybarnett6393 10 ай бұрын

Sun zero and his brother got royally screwed, like Bi Han was killed after being wrongfully accused as the mastermind behind the massacring scorpions clan, then after death is brought back as a revenant slave to Quan Chi, then Kuai Liang is betrayed by the Lin Kuei and turned into a goddamn robot against his will like that scene from superman 3

Another instance of Noob saibot being an absolute savage is one of his MK11 intros where someone goes “your brother would be ashamed” and he just replies “what brother?”

I was a college student when this arcade machine came out. The internet wasn't that big a thing, so all the rumors about this were wild. So many quarters were sacrificed to find all the secrets.

im starting to think that ed boon really likes the 'scorpion' design and the kuai liang character so he decided to merge the two together in MK1.

I miss the old carts and cabinets. I had to stop playing the newer games when i realized they just run rootkits to datamine your PC every time you launch. The real fatality was the DRM along the way

Joker in mortal kombat was great. It pays homage to injustice and MK vs DC, and it lets the joker be just as much of a psycho as he is in the comics.
