More new stuff
A bunch of New Moves
- Wow, it feels like Winter again! Why do I say that? Because all of this new information(moves, fatalities) was the way it was back in the fall and winter when MK4 was hot in the arcade. Special thanks to Lordhtiek, Trash-, and MKN for these new moves for Noob Saibot and Goro . We now know Noob Saibot's Prison and Goro Lair pits, and we know Goro's Ground Stomp!
Ed boon updates again!
- Ed Boon has updated his Noob.com website with scans from the new issue of PSM Magazine, in his MK4 Home Versions Preview section. Sub-Zero is on the cover and it includes a 6 page guide to MK4, an interview with the MK Design Team and a "Kreate a Warrior Kontest".
Moves simpified
- It is now know that all you have to do for the one button fatalities is hit D+HP from anywhere on the screen!!!
Also to enable Noob or Goro, when you go on the hidden menu press and hold either Block or run. Continue to hold it until you get to Reiko or Shinnok, then press the other button. This may me easer than pressing both buttons at the same time. For more information about getting the secrets out for the N64 version, Go Here!!

E3 INFO
- Well Where to begin??? It looks as if E3 shed a lot of light on the upcomming Home versions of MK4. All this info is Thanks to Dharmesh, and MKN!!
- Here is a quick overview of some of the differencece between the N64 version and PSX version!!
- Playstation
- - The characters look a lot choppier than the N64 version, but the backgrounds are a lot smoother looking.
- - The FMV endings are great and the Theater Mode that lets you watch MK TV Commercial, as well as the game endings. And once you put the cheat code in, there is an option to see anybody's ending by just beating the first guy.
- - Some endings have been enhanced. For example, In the Arcade, Reiko's ending has him just walking in to the portal. But on the Playstation now he walks into the portal and then he sits down on his chair and a mask comes down on him!! And guess what mask it is!!! Reiko is SHAO KAHN???
- - Goro is the sub-boss on every tower.
- Nintendo64
- - The characters look better than the PSX but the backgrounds are not as good!
- - The sound is great, better than MK Trilogy's.
- - The endings are real time like the arcade and have full voice and captions.
- - Noob Saibot's fireball lights his opponent breifly on fire. Not seen on the PSX version.
MK4 Alternate Costume Descriptions for Home Versions
- Here is a brief overview of some of the alternate costumes worn by each player in the home version!
- The alternate costumes can be attained by rotating the character a couple of times. Some characters have 3 costumes, and some 4. To get Noob Saibot's alternate outfits, rotate Reiko's block before hitting BLK+RUN for the Noob select code.
- Johnny Cage:Tuxedo
- Liu Kang: Head band, and a karate outfit
- Tanya: Black dress
- Sub-Zero:Same as arcade but with arms and Legs Frozen
- Raiden: Same as arcade but has blue sleeves
- Kai: Leather jacket with sunglasses
- Jax: White pants and a white shirt
