Everyone has 2 Fatalities, a Stage Fatality, and a Babality (which don't appear as ??????? in the move list, they just show up after you do them) So if you see any other locked moves it's likely to be a pre-order Fatality, I think only Reptile, Sub-Zero, and Scoprion have those.

Do you need it for an achievement? Send me a request, you can rip my head off for an achievement (game play only, preferably). I help buddies out with that kinda thing. And that video was funny. Nice find

Ok so I played MK today for the first time since Last Thursday. I had cut my thumbs on some exacto blades when I was converting my Dread Knight. They took a bit to heal and so now I am playing MK again. I picked up where I left off and beat Shao Khan. Man he is a cheap ass.

Ouch, Exacto Knives hurt. Glad you healed up
Yeah Shao Khan is a cheap ass. Took me forever to beat him, and I just said Feth It and cheesed it up on the Final Battle of the Game:
Spoiler:
Raidens Teleport, followed by an Uppercut every time he throws something at you.
You know, I just can't take Kung Lao seriously anymore. My brother walked in on me fighting against him, and said "Oh wow, a Flying China-man who is all over the place; that's not stereotypical AT ALL!", and after thinking about it, I just can't see KL in game anymore without bursting into laughter

You shut yo mouth! Kung Lao is and will forever be a cool dude! Though that one particular...scene...he had in story made caused me to rage quite a bit.
In other news I finally found my mains, since I play tag team a lot I wanted 4-ish charcters so I can have 2 or so teams. They're Shang+Mileena and Cyrax+Cyber Sub. Still don't know how I feel about regular Sub (and by that I mean his Bi Han alt, cuz older Sub is the best!) if I use human Cyrax human Sub makes a cool team...then again ROBOTS!
Also what's the biggest combo you guys have pulled off? Just today I did a 9 hit 37% with Shang...so many flaming skulls :p
P.S. Is Cyber Sub pretty much better than Cyrax in every way? He has pretty much all his moves and then some, but maybe not as much anti-air. Doesn't help that Cyrax doesn't seem to be able to deal much damage.

I've pulled off a 10 Hit, 50% combo with Ermac, using his X-Ray.
Next best is 30 percent, 4 hit Combo, No Enhanced, as Ermac.
Personally, I thought I would like Cyber Sub much better, but I honestly like Human Sub more than Cyber Sub. I'm waiting for Kenshi/Sareena to come out to decide upon my Second.
Though Kung Lao is pretty wicked, he has a Roll, a Teleport, AND a Jump Attack, meaning he is getting on top of you no matter what you do....

Is that the one where you use his two grab moves? (down away Square and away forward square on the PS3) My brother showed me that one last night. Pretty wicked.

I have been playing so much Gears of War 3 Beta that I forgot how to do THAT combo.
I did find out that Ermac's Down Back Triangle (Force Ball) move is AMAZING Anti-Air when you're jumping backwards and someone like Cyrax decides to use his Grab.

Have you seen the Krypt Demon yet? Every once in a while he will jump out at you when you try to exit the krypt. I am wondering if there is something secret about it?

That guy has only popped up twice for me, I doubt there's anything else special about him. While we're on the topic of secrets I somehow got the hidden Noob fight. I was in the Temple stage, and instead of getting to finish my opponent Noob suddenly shows up and goes bananas. Lastly, has anyone figured out Toasty's secret yet?

We haven't found anything about him, though we have found 4 secret Krypts that each give 5,000 Koins. I'll find the videos and link them.

Toasty is supposed to give you Full Meter, but we haven't been able to figure out how yet.
As for Secret Noob, in order to fight him you have to play arcade, go to the Temple Stage (random), have Noob in the background (again, Random), and NEVER block during the match. Doing these four things (only two of which you have control of) will unlock Secret Noob to fight, with 10,000 Koins for you if you win. We think beating him this way and Mastering him (Check Stats in Nekropolis) will unlock his Retro Outfit.
All Secret Fights have to be in Arcade:
Secret Smoke: Living Forest, you will occassionally see Smoke pop out from behind a tree. When he does, press Down and the Select/Back button immediately, and your opponent will instantly be killed and the Secret Smoke fight will come up. And just like in MK2; he has Scorpions moveset.
Secret Reptile: Same as MK1; when you see Santa or a Witch on the Pit stage (night), get a Double Flawless and and perform the Stage Fatality. You will then be transported to the bottom of the Pit, and.... Secret Reptile has Scorpions AND Sub Zero's moveset.
Secret Jade: We don't actually know how to find her; we know you have to get a double flawless on Shang Tsung, but other than that, we can't figure out what we did to fight her....

Subject: Anyone else really interested in Mortal Kombat 9?
I don't think I've seen anyone in the Living Forest, or anyone fly by the moon. I certainly wasn't paying attention in the Temple because I don't remember seeing Noob in the background. As for not blocking...well I was facing Sheeva...things weren't exactly difficult enough to warrant a block :p

Yeah I got those. Pretty neat stuff. I do hope there is something more to the Krypt Demon. I mean they have already said there are tons of secrets that people do not know just yet.

Is secret Noob MUCH harder than regular Noob? Because I find the regular one to be a real pushover. Also, is anyone else having difficulty finding matches online? I tried to get some online games in yesterday and it never stopped looking for a match. I got one match in, beat the crap out of my opponent so badly first round that he quit the fight and I couldn't get any other matches at all. Online is truly a bummer for this game from what I've seen... :\
Reality is a nice place to visit, but I'd hate to live there.

Secret Noob makes most players look like pushovers.
Also, I find King of the Hill to be MUCH better than Ranked or Player Matches. Join a Room and then find yourself a King of the Hill Session.

Is secret Noob harder than story mode Shao Khan? That guy is the biggest cheater, SOB, douche in the history of fighting games (but still beatable). I think I tried king of the hill to no success. I'll try again soon. Maybe my connection was malfunctioning at the time

A little less than Shao Khan, I would say. If you do anything other than Block, you get instantly punished by SN, and he is black.

Wow, Secret Noob was EASY. You only get 1000 koins per win, no 10000 koins, no secret for the krypt. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news there. Just block when he does his teleport slam then uppercut. Works like a charm. I'd feel guilty doing that to an opponent over and over again...don't mind so much against a machine. I just fought him and won the first time I did. And yes, my soul does feel a bit tarnished after the ass-kicking I just gave him

Sad. Do you have Noob mastered though? You might unlock his classic by having him Mastered (something like 150 X-rays performed, 24 hours playtime, 10000 pints of blood spilled, and 150 Fatalities, or something like that) and by beating Secret Noob. We don't know though.

Wow, that's a lot of stuff. No, I'm not really a Noob fan in game play...so I haven't spent much (any) time using him. When I went to PAX East EVERYONE and their mother was playing as Noob-kind of killed it for me so I just played my favorite sunglass wearing arrogant jerk or a hat throwing show-stealer. Do any of the FAQs mention how to get his klassic costume or get the koins? I probably won't master him either-got the achievement, that's probably enough for me. Are we even sure there IS a klassic costume for him that you get from beating him in some way? Do the other secret fights give secret goodies?

We know there is a klassic costume, but NOT how to unlock it. Thats why I was wondering if you had him Mastered or not.
So..... I have news on the first DLC character; SKARLET!
This is what she looks like (She cameoed in the Story mode once or twice)
And I have seen her fatality, and I was.... quite disturbed, to be honest. It was taken down, so all I can give is a description;
Skarlett pulls out one of her blades, and impales the enemy in the head/cheek area. She then pulls out the other blade, slits their throat so that their head falls back and blood comes gushing out.... and then proceeds to put her face into the blood, drinking it and making sure her entire face gets covered. Seriously, once it's done the only part of her face NOT bloody are her eyes....
Found it again

Wow for some reason I imagined Skarlet to be a more benign character. She seems like a total sicko...but I'll probably still like Mileena more :p
In other news am I the only one who hates negative edging? Consistently messes up all my combos.

Jeez that was pretty From a Khornish perspective. Gonna go try to beat super Jade right now-I assume doing it on "very easy" mode will SERIOUSLY increase the chances of kicking Shang's ass. I'll let you guys know how it goes/if it does anything when I finish. Should hopefully take me 15-20 minutes, depending on screw-ups
Ok, due to some stuff I had to take care of at home, 20 minutes of gameplay has taken over an hour. Also, I've only gotten one FV against him-not two yet. Still working on it. Turned off til after dinner. Updates will follow when able

Got some heads up on the secret kharacters for you guys: it looks like the money you earn goes up for each super fight you get: first (noob for me) was worth 1000 koins per win, second character (I beat smoke next this afternoon) was worth 2000 per fight, third (beat reptile) was worth 5000. I have not received any alternate costumes for them. Thought you guys would want to know. Still have to beat Jade, but I'm not sure how in the seven levels of hell I'm gonna get a double FV on Shang on normal mode...did it on beginner but it wasn't a high enough difficulty to get it.
