sorry, have a hard time understanding your response. are you saying that you are NOT in the position of being spoiled? when you asking "are there every any when it comes to mk?"...what exactly are you referring to...

are you saying that you have successfully avoided spoilers to maintain the element of surprise?

What i really hope for is that the story doesn't go all Michael Bay like it was shown in the story trailer... Giving emphasis to the boring ass special forces and their kids.... Instead of the dark, mysterious, oriental yet other-worldly aspect of the series.

Also few more stages would be nice. But mostly a couple more playable (AND NOM HUMAN!) characters .

Interesting ones though.

Can't help but to eye-roll whenever i see/hear the MK Kids with their annoying 17 year old douche personality that everyone seems to love...

What I am saying is that there are hardly any surprises in new MK games when they get released. The MK team spoils so much of their own game that there is barely ever anything left in the game that is actually "new" or unrevealed on the day it gets released. It's both the fault of NRS for going overboard with showing us everything prior to release, and for the MK fanbase always being so needy and whiney and always wanting to know everything in advance.

For many, many MK fans, the game will already feel old before they even unwrap the plastic shrinkwrap on the packaging because of their absurd need know absolutely EVERYTHING about the game prior to release. For others, like myself, who go out of the way to avoid spoilers (and I consider everything from fatalities to the roster as a spoiler), the game will be an enjoyable experience.

So, again...there will be barely anything left that will feel "new" to most people on release day because NRS always spoils too much, and fansites are always eager to spoil.

Seriously! I cannot understand how so many people are impressed by this MK version of the teen titans gimmick.

Yes, I agree with you. I hope the trailer only showed a very small part of the story...rather, that the newbies are just a setup to the story, and that they left out the most interesting parts out. Not too fond either of those new fighters either. Glad to see I am not the only one. Kotal, ferra/tor, and d'vorah are the most interesting of the newest additions, as they actually are more representative of the "other-worldly" aspect that gives mk it's dark fantasy flavor that makes it a unique fighting game.

Ah, yes! Thank you for elaborating on that. I couldn't agree with you more. It sucks how NRS's desire to please the fan base goes as far as revealing too much. And, like you mentioned, they have a notorious track record of revealing almost all secrets (whether officially or by a supposedly "unauthorized" leak).
I still hope that they saved the nastiest fatalities for us to discover and that they have really cool unlockables in the krypt. Oh, and I also hope that they did end up including stage fatalities.

But in the end, the only person to blame is myself for not having the discipline to steer away from spoilers so as to appreciate the element of being surprised when the game is released. So, in light of all the spoilers, I commend you for having the strength to avoid ruining the game.

4 younger characters, 3 of which have snarky attitudes. 2 of those 3 only have had around 5 lines each to judge. 1 hasn't said a line of dialogue yet. How are they similar to the Teen Titans, again? Or do any young heroes = Teen Titans? Because then, MK1-A is a Justice League gimmick.

Also, Teen Titans are my favorite DC characters, so what's so bad about having something similar in the first place?
