From the April Fools' Game Informer, on Mortal Kombat 12: "desensitized players responded to MK11 with shrugs. The answer? Banalities...."Anyone can peel off a face or dice a corpse into cubes...Property-tax increases? Dead sports on lawns? Those are the things that terrify our original fans".

  "We saw banalities in action during a demo match. Jax defeats Baraka in a basement laundry-room brawl, but he doesn't yank off the monter's limbs. Instead, the heor reaches up and yanks on the pipes above him. Water sprays everywhere as Baraka looks on helplessly. "This is going to cost a fortune to replair" he wails before collapsing to his knees. Then the toasty guy pops up."

  LOL! I gotta be honest, if one character told the other his property taxes just went up, then one falls to his knees crying...I'd play that!
