Liu Kang got his sorry ass wasted (neck snapped by Shang Tsung) in the intro movie of Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance.

Yes sir, don't worry though, just unlock his alternate costume in Armageddon. His alternate costume is actually just a "living" Liu Kang. (not that it matters, scorpion will slaughter all!

Hey hey, show some respect to Liu Kang. Bet he can shadowkick your ass

Liu Kang was, is and will forever be a disgrace to the videogame world.

So you're saying he is worse than Dan from Street fighter games?

Hey, hey! Keep it above the belt, no one is that bad! Besides, you can't compare mortal kombat to street fighter. That's like comparing virtua fighter to tekken. Besides, it all depends on "who's" playing the character.

Without a microsecond of hesitation.
Dan was made specifically to make fun of another character (Robert Garcia) and he fulfills that role admirably. He also got some seriousness when he tried to avenge his father's death at the hands of Sagat.

Liu Kang on the other hand, is a poor man's Ryu. Mis moves are ridiculous, his character is bland and he looks like a pansy.
Mortal Kombat has never been known for good characters but Liu Kang is bad even for MK's low standards.

Virtua Fighter can easily be compared to Tekken. In fact, there are few 3D fighting games you can compare better than these two.

Deep games like Soul Calibur, Tekken, Virtua Fighter and Street Fighter are on the opposite side of more superficial games like Dead or Alive (although recent installments have made the fighting system better) and Mortal Kombat.

You know..... I don't want to give you a big head, but now that I think about it....... you're right. However, when you mention virtua fighter & tekken, you can't leave out king of fighters.

I love MK: A. My personal favorites are Johnny Cage, Raiden, Jax, and Noob Saibot. The variety of characters is great, and the kreate a fighter doesn't have too bad of a set up. I remember my friends and I created Sephiroth and Goku and had them battle. It's one of the best Mortal Kombat games in awhile. Will never beat MK II or MK III ultimate though. The only thing I miss are the signature fatalites.

And as for conversation about Liu Kang, yeah, he's not that great of a "good" guy. His special attacks are pathetic, and even though he's basically modeled off Bruce Lee, he's not that good of a character in MK. Then again it's Scorpion and Subzero that make the Mortal Kombat series so well known.

I agree that MK Armageddon has done many things right where it previously did things wrong. However, just like Mr. Dark. said, they have made an absolutely fatal mistake with the total failure of the new fatalities system.
The other thing they did wrong is removing one of the fighting styles for each character in exchange for increasing the lineup. My last gripe is one that was present in the previous MK games too, the death traps are too easy to get caught in.
