Good news, although I have to confess that it's been ages since I've been stoked about a new Mortal Kombat game. Kratos fits perfectly in a bloody game like MK, though.

look at the limited edition. the first limited edition I would want to spend on. something useful for a change. the box is a fight stick!

I'm not so much in the know with fight sticks but is it any better than the ones released for SF4? If i recall they had a low cost one which i heard was a piece of crap and a premium one that was alright.

Like Destin said, if they put in Fulgore on the XBOX 360 version I will be getting that instead.

Hard News reference FTW!!!

This is stupid, I laughed my ass off at that trailer. At least its a bonus character though so it won't be fucking up the main game.

Hells yeahs.

 

Now that I think about it, part of me wants to say Kratos ruined this game, part of me wants to say that this was a good move.

what's your g1 name on screw attack? and Kratos is just a bonus he has no story , he's just fodder so you don;t even have to play as him

In my opinion, the whole idea of throwing an exclusive character seems very cheap these days. Unfortunately, nerds will get suckered into this sort of thing and buy both limited edition games and probably after the hype wears out, they will go by a nearby Gamestop dumpster and go garbage diving for the Mortal Kombat Kratos cartboard cut out..

I was just wondering, how many games with platform-exclusive characters is there so far? Off the top of my head I can at least name Soul Calibur II (Heihachi/Spawn/Link) and Soul Calibur IV (Yoda/Darth Vader/Star Killer?). Any others?

[Devia Eleven]

I don't think so.

Well im speaking in general, like you mentioned we have soul calibur, im sure there are more out there. For instance, Sega All star racing, which has Banjo exclusively on the 360 version and the other versions for wii and ps3 what do they have? nothing.. Just stock characters that were originally intended for the game. Here we have Mortal Kombat including Kratos, now what if the 360 version some how someway didn't have any 'special' characters and just the stock characters. Just imagine how many nerds/fanboys will get pissed.

 

I bet there are people misinformed about Kratos being in mortal kombat as well.. People who own a 360 might even actually believe that Kratos will also be in the Xbox version of Mortal Kombat. That's why i believe this whole exclusive shit is retarded..

[Agozer]

I'm of the mindset that if a developer bothers to create an exclusive character for one port of a given multiplatform game to begin with, they should do the same for all ports. Having said that, exclusive characters are marketing gimmicks at best and bound to piss of some section of the fanbase.
