Ermacs fatality, the one partly shown in his reveal trailer, and fully shown in the gameplay vid here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwqzKL7G2EA&list;=FL334NHjs5EkY2pjEfKMnxGw) is getting some pretty good attention over on Neogaf.

This is taking me back to the days of MK1, when people were legitimately grossed out to the point where they felt uneasy about what they were watching. While MK9 certainly had its own moments with Noob's split and such, I think MKX is taking it to the next level. I've always enjoyed MK when it pushed people's comfort zones and I wasn't sure if it ever truly would again, but it appears to be happening with MKX. I love it.

Yeah the fatalities are looking so much better then MK 9 because of the new gore system. Ermac's newest revealed fatality is wicked, but so far the only one that made me cringe was when we first saw the teaser of Quan Chi's fatality back in October. Thats the first time I ever felt dirty by a fatality.

Indeed, but it's usually a decent place to judge peoples reactions. I love seeing MK get this type of response.

I can't wait to see the second fatality of most people. And still waiting on stage fatalities
It's technically impressive but I prefer simpler, to the point fatalities. Or ones that are humorous in some method.

Not that they're bad but the new Brutalities are cooler I think.

Well in that case I agree I like seeing people hyped for MK!

This fatality and the one from Quan Chi are the only ones I find truly disturbing, imagine someone making me eat an entire sword...

Ermac's is just so gross. A lot of the fatalities have this kind of uneasy factor to them.

Screw Neogaf anyway.

The majority whine all day about dumb stuff if they arent busy being White Knights.

They can only still complain about Goro and the Kombat Pack...

OMG! Quan Chi's fatality was soooo promising and started amazingly awesome. But they over-done it. And instead of feeling disturbing or gross like Ermac's fatality. It felt extremely over the top and stupid. Ermac's fatality makes a lot of sense while the second part of Quan Chi's fatality doesn't. And just made it feel over-done.

This is coming from a fan of Quan Chi. But his second fatality, the one with the two portals that we saw a glimpse, seems to be promising and interesting.

Ermac's fatality on the other had is pretty awesome and disturbing, his second one is also pretty freaking awesome.

Ermac's fatality is pretty fucking nasty. That's coming from someone who 's been playing MK since '92. Quite honestly, it is the most fuck you fatality of all time. Ermac is the Kratos of Mortal Kombat.

Noob's wishbone is awesome, but it didn't have nearly a quarter of the effect on me as Ermac's new one. That fatality was brought to you by yours truly, leaked right from PAX 2011 ;)

It's very gross, their butthurt isn't lying to them. Ermac by far has the best fatalities, fuck what you heard.

There are legions of peopleon NeoGAF wanting MKX to fail and not sell because of Goro and the Kombat Pack and when the region lock story hit over there people claimed to have cancelled their pre-orders. NeoGAF are the fucking worst sometimes. I call them the Gaming God Squad because of their obsession for all AAA games to be 1080p, 60fps, have no microstransactions and no pre-order bonuses. They piss me off so much.

I'm excited to see it, but I'm trying to avoid all of the fatalities until I get the game...even though I've already seen a few.

Again I am just flabbergasted that they could manage to go the extra mile with the details here and yet Reptiles looks so inexcusably last gen awful.

@ragnarok : It's nothing compared to gore movies. Especially the old make up gore, not the digital shit. As a horror fan how can you not say that's one of the better fatalities you've ever seen? I think it's great, could have been better if he rolled him up like toothpaste.

For someone who's not a horror fan that's probably disturbing lol. The game isn't for them though so fuck what they say.

I think Ermac's fatality grosses me out most, I guess because his internal organs are ripped out through his mouth. *Shudders*, that kind of shit grosses me the fuck out.

That was the nastiest fatality I seen in a long time. Very shocking smile people commenting on the fatality Youtube vid saying NRS went to far. Please, its Mortal Kombat, its supposed to shock and gross people out lol

For that comment, I hope to face you online and perform fatalities on you. It took a lot of time for the guys who made those animations and a lot of thought too.

The fatalities are a huge reason why MK was put on the map and they are meant to be epic, not simple or to the point. It's pretty cool though that while they have amazing fatalities a fan such as yourself also gets what they want too with the Brutalities.

Careful, they might pull on you during the fatality.
