Yes!

I don't want any of the MK4 voices back. His MK4 one was ill-fitting the character, and it and Quan Chi's sound too similar. The one at the end of MK9 is perfect.

I liked his voice, but we have yet to hear the new one. I'd hate to say I'd rather have MK4 is this proves to be better, and it probably will.

Think I'd rather have a professional voice actor than some guy from the studio.

I liked his MK9 one the most. There he seemed old and wise, but also powerfull and evil, just like I think he should be.

They should get Ian McDiarmid.

No thanks.

MK9 Shinnok>MK4 Shinnok>MK7 Shinnok

I really liked the MK4 voice, but I can't say I'd want it over something I haven't heard yet.

Armageddon's really threw me off. But that was the issue with that whole era. Voices that just did not match their characters.

The MK4 voices were corny as hell

To be fair, I don't think Shinnok would have gotten the best response from Taven if he came at him in an overwhelming wizard of oz voice.

I liked all the sounds of all of his voices, though the quality of the acting could have been better in some. I hope his voice is good in this game with whichever voice they choose.

LMAO! Fuckin serious? NO!

That was just another reason Shinnok left no impression on me in MK4. That bland none imposing voice of his. If I can't have a Tony Jay sound alike ominous voice I'll settle for something along the lines of his voice in Armageddon.

That at least gave him some character and dignity.

I agree.

You are so right, Have a listen to Kung Lao in Deception's konquest mode.

I liked Havik's voice in that though. He sounds...shifty but collected.

Shinnok: INFIDEL! I could kill you with a mere thought! I'm not a God of my Word!

His ending was kinda badass as well in my opinion. Yes, I love his voice from Mk4 and was even hoping the same thing...but we know thats not going to happen.

I liked Goro's voice in MK Gold as well.
Imagine Quan Chi speaking with his MK4 voice in MK9 and X...it would be kinda awkward but entertaining nonetheless HA!

...And that was just terrible He sounded like Van Damme.

Some possible good Shinnok voice candidates:

John Noble
Ian McDiarmind
Corey Burton
Michael Ironside
John Hurt
Douglas Rain

Dear god...



Havik is definitely one of the better ones.

Shinnok : Infidel I can end this thread with a mere thought.

Um. Fuck no.

"Shao kahn was blinded by rage!" - Shinnok

Mk9 shinnok voice over all day. I can't even rant how many times I watched that over and over because of the voice!

Mk9 Shinnok is the best voice for him.
I have high expectations for Shinnok in MKX, and his defeat in Chapter 1 of story mode seems like a Red herring.

I really want to believe that, but part of me is thinking they're going to go the whole nine yards with this blood god ordeal.

Hell nah! His MK9 voice was great! Totally different from any other MK character.

There is nothing good coming from MK4 aside lighting effects, so no.
