Yeah...and is it just me, or did her boobs actually get bigger during?

Now I can't watch that image without imprinting some ridiculous cartoon bouncy ball sound into my brain.

Hmm...it does look like Kitana is talking at that one point. Also, like I said in the other thread: I want a theater mode with a controllable camera! I'm loving the angles they're giving on these fights.

Hm, I had finally decided on not buying this game but now I see that that isn't an option. I'll be a little upset if Mileena suddenly kills Kitana.

I'm starting to get confused too. So much content of Mileena killing Kitana. I'd love to see them release a vid of Kitana actually winning once and a while. She is suppose to win after all, and her and Sonya are technically the poster girls for MK. Mileena's cool and all, but no... Kitana's hair looks a lot better now. I really didn't notice it at first, so I had to go back and rewatch it a couple times. Her hair moves fine. It's not going to be perfectly like real hair because you really can't animate each strand. With the hairstyle she's given *which I personally think is perfect for Kitana*, I think it animates well.

I agree with you 100%
If they change the story so that this time Mileena is victorious or something crazy like that, I'm gonna be furious
We have seen Mileena pound on the princess way to much now, it's time for Kitana to get revenge

Damn, that's phucking badass!
As I said in the other thread, Kitana's gameplay looks so stylish and fun! Love that enhanced fan throw. Also, that slow motion effect as she performs her "heel-to-the-head" throw is awesome, especially in this video where just as she hit Mileena in the face, arena switched from The Bell Tower to The Church.
Mileena's multiple stab looks great. I don't think that's her new X-ray though. Remember how there's a purple glow whenever she performs any of her special moves, so yeah, it's probably a special move not an X-ray.
As for all you Kitana fans worried that she might get killed by Mileena, I doubt that's gonna happen. In the Mileena gameplay trailer, her story bit at the beginning of the clip was not her as player 1 facing Kitana, it was against Stryker (unlike Subby's clip for example where he confronts Scorpion). Also, there was an interview with Boon in which he said players are probably gonna play with Kitana during story mode, so that goes in favor of her not getting killed by Mileena.
Once more, Goro's lair is looking fantastic!

Well it seems they've finally got around to tweaking Kitana's hair movement!
"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqX1S7-3bsQ"
Blocked by WB! That was fast lol.
Love the vid, Mileena & Kitana both look beautiful. I didn't notice Kitana's hair flailing AS much, a little bit but not loads.
The stages are amazing, I've always thought of Goro's Lair as boring and dull but this time they have made it atmospheric and sinister.
How intimidating does Goro look!

Wow... I am stunned on how much detail they have put into this game. Looking at these two shows how much progress they've done. I think it looks absolutely gorgous. And I still can't get my head around how they can't seem to fix Kitana's hair-flow! Why does it still fly around like some rubberband?! It makes absolutely no sense at all...

Yeah but you can definitely tell NRS has been working to fix it, Look at Kitana's hair now compared to the early gameplay videos we got of her, like the PAX ones. I have no doubt that her hair will move and flow just fine in the final build.
I am still bothered by how different Kitana and Mileena look. I like the different hair legnths, but I do not like Mileena's eyes. Deception was good, Mileena looked like a clone of Kitana, now she just looks like Baraka's sister.

Click to see more details. Here, we know that she's saying, "You will learn respect." You can see her mouth causing her mask to stretch and warp. We should at least see similar warping in her mask in the previous scene if she's speaking to Mileena.
Anyway, Mileena backing up and hissing into her fighting stance might just be for a particular scene in story mode. At the same time, I don't think we can rule out the possibility of this scene depicting a new get-up animation just yet.

Look at how her bangs move in the first pic.
I've never seen anything like that in a MK game. The hair animations have just been terrible... until NOW!

If it were to be like real hair, it would fall in front of her face when she jumped or did fast movements. Everytime it's about to do that, the hair changes direction so it'll fall back on her back. I think it looks fine.

I think this is cool and all, but I'm getting mighty sick of seeing nothing but Scorp, Sub, and Mileena promo.
What about the other 23 characters? The game's only 2 months away, so what gives?
