Mortal Kombat, Who is your favourite character?

#1 Posted by EshLad (4 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

For me Kano he is so brutal and loved him in the original movie, a close second for me would have to be johny cage who is a loveable smartass.

Deffinately Reptile. I don't know what it is about him, but i just love how he does all of his moves.

I think UMK3 Sub Zero is probably the most fun to play even though I prefer his masked look. Also, pretty much the only character from the 3D MKs I would like to see again would be Havik, he had some great moves.

I'm not a big fan of Mortal Kombat, but my choice is always Sub-Zero. I suck at the game, but I'm surprised Jeff was so drawn to the upcoming MK vs DC.

#5 Posted by Vash108 (126 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

I would have to go with Subzero. He moves always felt pretty fluid to me and the ice attacks are just sweet.

When I was a lot younger I was always into Sub-Zero, basically because my brother called dibs on Scorpion, and I refused, as a child would, to like the same character as my brother.

Now I think Scorpion is pretty rad though, especially in MK3.

I have to say Scorpion, but I haven't played any of the newer games, so that might change.

Sonya for me.

#10 Posted by NihonTiger (62 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

Sub-Zero or Smoke.

#11 Posted by GiantGUS (398 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

The younger Sub-Zero (the one that got the scar after MK2).

But I do think that the only character that was well portrayed in the movie was Kano.

#12 Posted by RustyScrew (72 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

I'm pretty bad ass with Shang Tsung, so i'd have to say him.

#13 Posted by BlackWaterCO (1573 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

Jax primarly and Scorpion Secondly

Also a HUGE fan of the cyborg Ninjas (Smoke, Cyrax, Sektor)

#18 Posted by logson (519 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

Kung Lao. HE THROWS HATS.

#19 Posted by StaticFalconar (4780 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

Everybody is gonna say SUb zero or Scorp. But I say Smoke.

#20 Posted by Couse (68 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

Sub-zero, I don't know MK2 and Killer Instinct are tied for my favourite fighting game for the SNES. My favourite fighting game of all time is Def Jam: Fight For New York.

#21 Posted by The_Dude (798 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

I know it's "cliche" but I love Scorpion, he is actually one of my favorite video game characters in general...hes just so bad ass!

#22 Posted by Supertramp (55 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

Reptile. He's wild, I dig him. Also, Noob Saibot.

#23 Posted by SSbabel (1141 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

Damn its a toss up between Sub and Scorp, sorry to hard to choose.

#24 Posted by Shadow2K6 (381 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

Sub Zero.

#25 Posted by JJGIANT (755 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

The flash. Ha

#26 Posted by FordFairlane (99 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

I always dug Smoke, just because I was so stoked when I finally was able to face him in MK.

Stryker also has a place because his Crossing Guard Friendship in UMK3 was awesome.

#27 Edited by AEKtzis (106 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

Scorpion. I know how boring but whatever.

#28 Posted by chronicsmoke (990 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

I agree saying your favorite is Scorpion has become a cliche, but he is my favorite character in MK

#32 Edited by Andrew (125 posts) - 4 years, 5 months ago

Kabal, he had a great fatality, swords, and the needs a breathing apparatus!!!

#33 Posted by TheGreatGuero (9067 posts) - 4 years, 5 months ago

Baraka for me. Reptile would probably be the runner up, but his whole unmasked dinosaur look in MK:DA is making me a bit unsure.

#34 Posted by TekZero (2585 posts) - 4 years, 5 months ago

Kenshi.

But if it has to be one of the "original" characters... Kano.

#35 Posted by LackLuster (707 posts) - 4 years, 5 months ago

Scorpion

Reptile has always been a dino (mk2 on) if I am not mistaken... MK2 reptile spit he pulled off his mask... or did you just not like him being unmasked permanatly??

#37 Posted by Gameboi (653 posts) - 4 years, 5 months ago

Sub-Zero.

#38 Posted by gunswordfist (576 posts) - 4 years, 4 months ago

I THINK Scorpion is my absolute favorite but there's so amny great characters. There's also Reptile, Noob Saibot, Kabal and Quin Chi.

#39 Posted by bwooduhs (1609 posts) - 4 years, 4 months ago

Scorpion or Sub-Zero

*slaps forehead* HOW'D I FORGET ABOUT KUNG LAO!!! Kung Lao in MK2 is unstoppable. Along with Reptile.

#41 Posted by SpikeSpiegel (6818 posts) - 4 years, 4 months ago

Sub Zero is my favorite. :-)

#42 Posted by TabooTongue (114 posts) - 4 years, 1 month ago

I used to always say Sub-Zero the V... and I am still going to have to go with Sub-Zero V, but Sub-Zero 6th is definitely close. As I much prefer fighting as him in UMK3, and his story growth as a character from losing to Scorpion and running from the Lin Kuei to becoming the Grand Master of the Lin Kuei and discovering his families heritage. And not just in a single game but progressively in each.
As far as new characters go I like Darrius. While not all of his tactics for recruitment are great, I don't know how I could like anyone more than a revolutionary.

I've always been a Jax kind of guy. When I was really little, I used to go and play this game with my uncle and all of his friends. When I saw a dude with metal arms, well, I just couldn't resist. I'd use him whenever my uncle and his friends would give me a shot, and then when they were done I'd sit around and play by myself. He's been my main Mortal Kombat man ever since.
