That's not a bad idea.
My latest MK1 video displaying Scorpion's kick flip move that can only be used in invasions. Me and most fans and players really want for Scorpion to have this move added 🙏🏾😫 please

Great question ... someone actually thinking things through :)
Since Sub-Zero's a cryomancer this would mean the liquids that come out of his body are already acclimated to his extremely cold body physiology, which begs the question: When Sub-Zero pees, does the water in the toilet automatically freeze or would his pee turn into steam when it hits the open air?

Great to see the game still out in the wild !!
Shout out to Ed Boon, programmer extraordinaire! A pinball machine is like a space probe, sent alone into an unknown, potentially hostile environment, and required to do its own error recovery. Ed's work on BK2K made it possible for me to still score a jackpot with 3 targets non-functional!

Cary was one of a kind. He combined danger, swagger and athleticism to his roles and will always be remembered as the man who first brought Shang Tsung to life on film.
Rest in Peace. Your soul is eternal.

We lost a legend today. Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa played Shang Tsung in the 1995 Mortal Kombat film and sadly passed away at age 75. We had the privilege of his portrayal on the first MK film but also as an amazing voice actor in the Mortal Kombat 11 game.

Rest in peace, Tomonobu Itagaki. Dead or Alive and Ninja Gaiden made an undeniable impact on gaming. I only crossed paths with him a few times, but he could not have been nicer.

Please watch and (more importantly) listen to this video. Anything sound familiar? Bring back any memories? I hope you'll join us in thanking Dan for his amazing contributions to MK, and games in general.

Remember the amazing music that defined the atmosphere of the fighting arenas?
That was all Dan.
You may also know him as the (now infamous) "Toasty Guy" but Dan's audio single handedly created a literal atmosphere that played a major role in the feel and vibe of Mortal Kombat.

A significant part of the first Mortal Kombat's identity was in its tone, mystique and outrageous presentation.
Remember the first time you saw & heard an uppercut?
The explosive impact..
The announcer's wicked laugh..
The "DUN DUN DUN" before a fatality?

After an incredible 37 year career, on October 1st, Dan Forden (1/4 of the original Mortal Kombat team) began his well earned retirement. I cannot overstate the impact Dan has made on pinball, videogames, NetherRealm & especially Mortal Kombat.
