All the special moves are the same. Either B, >B. \/B, or /\B.

The first Mortal Kombat also had the same moveset for each character. Makes the game easier for people who are new to fighting games and don't want to learn a moveset each time they start playing with a new character.
(Said the man who can only execute a Hadouken and doesn't know any other combo; OR fatality; OR combo breaker. What can I say, I'm the platformer type.)

 You should totally check out the IRC channel.
While you're at it, go check out my band, Her Majesty's Heroines.

That isn't true. There may have only been a few button combinations utilized throughout the game, but they were not universal across all the characters.

Huh. I guess you learn something new every day.
I'm pretty sure Syd said that every character had the same moveset in his fatality fest, though.

I've only played melee, so I don't have a solid opinion yet.

it's very possible to give every character the same commands and have them paly differently, like they did in the smash games.
but mortal kombat had every character play exactly the same, with slightly different commands (sorrry, KOMMANDS). it's the exact opposite.

Ok, I guess I read that wrong. I thought he was talking about special moves. The standard attacks are indeed universal.

Hell, until Deadly Alliance, everyone had the same basic fighting style.
