In the event that today was Mortal Kombat 9's "One Year Anniversary" April 19th, Ed Boon tweeted two cover arts that did not make the cut for the game's final version. I suppose you could say that one was "too much" and the other was "not enough" while comparing them to the art version that we see today. Regardless, these two covers make us think back to all of the months speculating about Mortal Kombat 9 and just how much MK1,2 & 3 we would be seeing.

I'd make a few changes to the ps3 one and go with that. Take out those background characters. Put the font and logo on the bottom. Enlarge Raiden, move him up.

I will take the PS3 one, I want a custom background, I might make my own, I just need to figure some things out:).

I think both of them would've worked. The one we all have is alright, but having either one would be sweet! The X-box one has originality, while the PS3 one has creativity. I guess the rivalry between Sub and Scorpion its just so known they couldn't not ignore it. (if that makes sense)

Reversible covers would be nice for this kind of thing. Although since the images are out now I can just make my own. BAM.

The xbox one for the regular edition and RAiden for special.

they are both sick though

Fujin and Ermac for MK 11
The Xbox cover is ok, kind of reminds me of MKA cover just not as zoomed in as much. The PS cover I actually think is neat, Raiden looks really cool there :)
