For some reason I actually think this is awesome.. Must be the fact that I never saw it coming and I like the idea of beating the crap out of Shao Khan as Freddy.

They can't put everyone in, because it would nullify a purchase of the inevitable sequel.
This is true, especially considering
Everyone apart from Raiden, Johnny Cage, Sonya and Quan Chi die in the story mode. Although, like you said, that means that the majority of characters they have left to introduce are the not so popular ones...hmm...
.

Although I would love a Mortal Kombat game with shit loads of characters. Not that I'm not happy with MK9 - I still think it's awesome.

lol wut?

Seriously though, his moves look really cool, but... rly?

Now, gotta wait for Jason and we could have a match that would be a thousand times better than that attrocity of a movie.

Not getting it. I got the 360 version because I didn't want Kratos in it and I don't want Freddy in it either. I am disappointed that it isn't an actual Mortal Kombat character.

I like how you say about how lightsabers should cut through ot weapons, but leave out the whole immortaity thing freddy has going for him. ood luck wiing a fight against an enemy who survives decaptation and other shit.
If you had brushed up on your Nightmare mythos, you'd know that outside of the Dreamscape, Freddy only has his athletics to help him, alongside his wits. He only survives due to be remembered, which was a major plot point of both the sixth Nightmare on Elm Street and Freddy vs Jason. Since he's in the Mortal Kombat universe, he has more powers at his disposal but he doesn't have a huge advantage due to the average Mortal Kombatant's powers like Johnny Cage or Scorpion.

The dreamscape is where Freddy is at his prime, without it he is easily just either an athletic individual with blood lust or an above-average serial killer.

Wow. It's so encouraging to know that all the effort that was put into this could have been directed into cutting down the goddamn lag online.

I can't believe I, an intelligent person, gets so easily chucked in by a cheesy marketing trick. It's working, damn it!

...Or maybe I'm not that too intelligent. But what ever.

Fun thing is, this might actually make me buy the game. Freddy's my favorite of the horror lot, and playing him, slicing away at others could potentially put a smile on my face.

Exactly, you'd remember him. The reason why, in Freddy vs Jason, that Freddy used Jason to stir up trouble was to get people to remember him. If you remember him, he'll keep coming back. But if you forget about him, he loses his powers and ceases to be a threat.

But that is the main draw for slasher series: The villain will come back. Also, don't put Saw in with the likes of Nightmare on Elm Street, at least Freddy is funny, Saw is bland. Only the 1st one was worth anything.

On a related note: I feel this fits here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgOx7-z-lmg

Oh God I know! I thought it was just my connection but obviously not. It does tend to make winning quite difficult...

Unless I missed something Freddy only has one glove, not two.

I dunno, I think this is just a PC mod or something, it's just look ... right some how.

I call fake!
I second that, weird that not many noticed that little detail.

I hope it's real. Looks awesome.

Aside from a slight innaccuracy that probably only bugs me because I'm a massive nerd. I could've swore that he only had one knife glove?

What? Ok so apprently in his former like of killing childrens he was also a skilled fighter?
I don't know why but I find him as a DLC character in Mortal Kombat to be weird. I'm fully aware that there are ninja, gods, robot ninjas, modern day people and etc in the game but I still find it werid (I thought Kratos to be acceptable due to the game having god like beings in the game).
