Damaramu 0 Report post Posted December 14, 2003 Ok post them. All the big urban gaming myths you've heard. Even post frustrating stories of trying to get said thing until you found out that it was fake. Any myths that turned out to later be true somehow? I know there's a lot!

At Royal Rumble, Mankind will turn on you and you will fight him in a HIAC match at Mania. Which will unlock the HIAC. Oh I tried so hard to get that....

Anya 0 Report post Posted December 14, 2003 Something about a blood code on Mortal Kombat 1 on SNES (w/o the game genie). And something about getting a double flawless/fatality on Reptile unlocked another character. Are those true? No. Here are some of my favorites about MK... Ermac is in MK1. Everyone's normal attacks are exactly the same. Classic Sub-Zero in UMK3/MKT is the old Sub-Zero from MK1. Shen Long is a good one. A lot of people don't realize it's significance. Not only was it a good joke, it really changed gaming. The myth was the reason Reptile was added to MK1 and that started the whole trend of secret characters, which is still really big today.
