shouldn't there be more than one fatality per person? isn't there also background fatalities??? the game is pretty awesome. also very friggin' hard even on the easiest setting. i usually glide through fighting games but this one took me more than an hour to beat on the easiest setting :(

reviews claim its better than expected and worth buying. they also say the fatalities are on the weak side.

I sucked at Mortal Kombat...but even a sucky player like me knows that the ENTIRE coolness of MK was in the mulitiple types of FATALITIES...along w/the announcer going "fatality!" or "toasty!" etc. Major suckage w/o it.

Nah aparently now the game is actualy a good fighting game, so they dont need the fatalities to be the core of the game anymore because it actualy has good gameplay, fatalities are now just icing.

Wrong answer. Even though I sucked at the game (yes, I wish I could rock it) I watched it for hOURS! The whole "aura" of the game was that after you fairly beat somebody, you rubbed his/her face in it w/a "Fatality!!!" move....the original game had multiple fataility moves per character...there were so many diff characters that you could never quite tell what you'd see next.

Heads being ripped off...impaled on spikes, frozen and then shattered in bloody pieces....BIG FUN!!! :D

MK fatalities kind of got lame after MK2. People were infatuated w/ it so Midway threw in more and more and made the finishing moves totally lame. Babality? WTF? Animality? Lameness. 2-3+ fatalities per person is good IF you make it look cool. Some of the finishing moves were so pathetic and lame that you just started laughing at how corny it is. I've done about 3 fatalities in MK:DA and yeah they are lame too. But at least this time the rest of the game is great.

BTW, anyone see Quan Chi's fatality? Pull their head so their neck is stretched? The guys at Midway are seriously losing their finishing move creativity.
