I'm a Mileena fan :twisted:

I LOVE Mortal Kombat!! !! ! I love Mileena's fatalities. Especially "Be Mine". Mortal Kombat Unchained is a good game for the PSP :D I also have Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe and Mortal Kombat on my PS3 :D

We had Mortal Kombat II for a long time in our local arcade/mini golf course. I liked Kitana a lot then, used Scorpion and Reptile some too. I was more of a Capcom person really, but I won't lie and say I wasn't excited for MKIII when it was announced.

With that said, I only really like the first 3 MKs and the new game, which is surprisingly good. Like all my other ps3 games it was stolen, but I liked a lot of the characters, Smoke was lots of fun and I liked "Noob" :roll: Saibot's style.

I have been a huge fan of the series since the first Mortal Kombat was released. I was 10 years old and we played it on the 16-bit powerhouse known as the Super Nintendo. I love the 2-d versions, the 3-d ones I can't get in to. I frequently play UMK 3 on the Nintendo DS and have the screenames Hush, Guitarman and Atari_Jag!. I also play MKII on the PS3 from time to time and my name on that one is SMB434. I'm up for a challenge if anyone has either of these two versions :)

When my brother was living with me, we'd always play with him being Sub-Zero, and myself as Scorpion - that's how we played Shaolin Monks!

I reckon Scorpion's my favourite, even though Shang Tsung is awesome... Having Freddy Krueger as a downloadable character (even if it IS the modern Freddy and not Englund's Freddy) is really awesome! Especially when dishing out fatalities onto Johnny Cage. :)

My older cousin used to be pretty much into all the 'versus' type fighting games, and prominent in his collection was the Mortal Kombat series. So, playing with him, I was introduced to MK, and I'm quite fond of it, even though I've always sucked at it. I really enjoyed playing it, but I NEVER improved in any way, shape, or form.

My favourite character is probably Sub-Zero. Because honestly, he was always such a freaking cheat from the first game onward. I mean, come on, you can't deny how broken it is to have a character that can completely immobilise his opponent for 2-3 seconds. Then, in MK3, he got even worse, because they gave him an upward ice blast that lands on his foe's head. I've had some good times with ol' Sub-Zero.

I happen to actually like the Deadly Alliance/Deception/Armageddon games. Especially Armageddon, because it's basically just MK Trilogy in 3D. I also like the Kreate A Fighter feature in that game.
It should come as no surprise to you guys that my favourite character in those games is Frost, Sub-Zero's apprentice.

BTW, I also really like Stryker. I'm one of few, I know.

Ah Mortal Kombat, I remember our arcade had it (MKII) long after the third game came out. MKII is really up there, as far as favorite fighting games go, though I liked Darkstalkers and the Marvel Vs games a bit more. In MKII my favorite characters were Reptile and Scorpion. One is a dinosaur ninja with predator camo that spits acid and the other is a ninja from hell who, complete with all the hellish trimmings. I think they were the best in their initial appearances, in later games Scorpion got a bit..over-designed and Reptile looks really dorky until MK9 where he's cool again. Barakka was another favorite but even as a kid I knew he sucked to use. I omitted Smoke because I'm going by playable characters for MKII.

MKIII was a game I was very hyped for but somewhat underwhelmed compared to its predeccesor. I never got to play it in the arcade and I think by that time Capcom's 2d fighters were looking more appealing to me. I really liked 3's urban setting, the multi-layered stages were cool and the robots were awesome replacements for the ninjas. Loved Cyrax and Sektor, loved how they had black blood too, very nice touch.

After MKIII I went through a very long hiatus from the series, which was odd since I had been a very big fan before, I even watched the cartoon that aired on USA and I -enjoyed- the first movie. I kinda watched MK from the sidelines for many years, rolling my eyes at the 3d games. I enjoyed MK9 a lot, its my second favorite MK game (after II). My favorite characters:

Noob Saibot (they made him so cool!)
Smoke
Ermac
Robot Subzero
Reptile
Mileena

I kinda shelved the game for awhile then lost my copy (sister :roll:), never tried out the dlc characters. Freddy looked funny.

Stryker doesn't seem like a common choice amongst fans. He's better than Johnny Cage that's for sure.

I freaking hate Johnny Cage. Him and his douchebag sunglasses :evil:
