Its common place for almost every Fighting game to include a guest Character nowadays... We got Kratos in MK9..And..unfortunately Freddy Kreuger... Injustice gave Scorpion.. So there is a good Chance (Especially with all the talk of this potentially being a cross MK universe storyline) of there being guest characters.. Having included Scorpion in Injustice, I wouldn't be surprised if a DC fighter got included in this game.. if that happened who would you want to see?

It's gonna happen and I'm all for them. I'm only one of like 3 that like them though on this board, heh. Hopefully the Xbox bros don't get shafted without a guest character again and I hope we get someone from Gears of War. I wouldn't be too surprised if it was a Killer Instinct character though tbh, in which I say throw Fulgore in the game.

I don't think DC or WB would want those comic characters to be mutilated or gored in a battle but if it had to be a DC fighter . .. King Shark.

But I would think a KI character for the XBone would be great.

If there's a guest character in this game, doesn't matter who it is, they will be my punching bag in Practice.

That's my stance on guest characters.

I'm not one for them, but, what the hey. How about the guy from Infamous 1&2? He can be a foe of Dark Raiden? This for PS 3&4.
For Xbox, Xbox One and PC, it could be a character from KI 1 or 2?

NEVER! NO GUEST CHARACTERS!
No more guests. I like Freddy, yet they chose the shitty version of him. He was fun though, I liked his specials. I just really don't want a guest in the game. Jim Lee's take on Scorpion ruined him in the game, but I wanted another DC character honestly, not a guest. Scorpion is my favorite character too..that tells you how dumb guests can be in fighting games.

It's getting redundant at this point. Freddy sold a shit ton, and I bet Scorpion did too (except he took the spot of Martian Manhunter which pissed thousands of people off.) There's only one guest I want for MKX, and that's Hellboy. Everyone else can star in their own fucking game, just not in MK.

Mine too... but they ruined the experience making Kratos never scream during fatalities and be defiant when the rest of the cast freaked out (Ermac stomp fatality). Dumbest idea ever IMHO.

Hell yes. MACE THE DARK AGE: I have always wanted to see AL Rasheed in an MK game.. I've always wanted an Arabian fighter in Mortal Kombat to give a good variation to the roster.

When I was a kid, I used to pretend that 'Mace: The Dark Age' was a prequel of sorts to the Mortal Kombat games, one of the first tournaments in the series, and that some of the characters were the ancestors of the MK guys.

I had so much fun with that shit. It really helps that both games were made by Midway. Kinda plays into the narrative, you know? smile

I'm fine with guest characters. They are either in or they aren't, I really don't care. HOWEVER, I do like them being in just because I get to see certain people on MKO get all butthurt.

I'm all for a guest fighter. Kratos was cool. And Freddy was even funnier! I had fun with them, which is what it's all about for me.

I'm kinda expecting somebody from Injustice. But as a poster above me said, I doubt WB wants their precious Batman getting his shit flipped with Scorpion's 2nd fatality.

I can see DC Characters such as Deathstroke or Lobo being included since they are violent and brutal characters.. or even Guerilla Grodd. Or Solomon Grundy..

I'd rather characters from the MK universe or new characters than a guest, personally. I was put off from the whole Kratos thing but I guess it didn't really affect me once I got the game. I played as him probably once.

Agreed about Freddie... They were just capitalizing on another WB owned property... as well as giving us something we never would have expected...

Although if they had included some one like Tremor instead they would have made A LOT of people happy.

I'm all for guest characters! I know most people want nothing to do with them but IMO if they are done right and balanced properly they are alot of fun!

I would love to see a Gears of War character in the xbox version but I know they tried that for MK9 and ran into a bunch of legal problems or something along those lines, so I wouldn't be surprised if they went for someone else.

YES!!! I hope for "Invisible Man", great character. He can not be seen or played in the game. He surely will serve his only purpose and increase the sales numbers.

If we get another Movie character, I want the Predator. No one else would be a more perfect fit for MK.

How about some one from Assassins Creed? they could be multi platform and would be a cool addition to Mortal Kombat.

I'm all for a Guest Character if they FIT into the theme and story of Mortal Kombat.. Say what you will against Kratos, but he was a Demigod who is known for Violence and it would make sense for Raiden and Fujin to have heard of him... He fit into the theme..

What I don't want is another Freddie..and I don't want them to go the Tekken route with Star Wars characters (even though im a big SW fan)... or Spawn...

A guest from another game such as KI, Assasins Creed, Mace the Dark Ages (which is another Midway property WB acquired)... Those characters would fit in the gritty, violent world of Mortal Kombat...

Not only that, but including Guests like that might prevent another "Mokap" incident.... and that I'd even take Barney the Dinosaur over...
