GENERAL/STORY:
Noob Saibot is a
ninja of the shadows. He appeared in Mortal Kombat 2 as a hidden
character. Noob's special abilities in Mortal Kombat II were simply
copied from Scorpion. To fight him, the player must win 50 rounds in a row.
The name Noob Saibot spelled backwards is "Tobias Boon" (the last
names of MK creators Ed Boon and John Tobias). Speculation arose that
after Tobias left Midway in 2000, the "Saibot" portion of the name had
to be removed for legal reasons, but this was untrue as Tobias did not own the
rights to the name. In MK: Deception's Konquest mode and in MK:
Armageddon, the name Noob-Smoke was split up,
with "Saibot" omitted for continuity purposes.

REVIEW:
I guess Noob Saibot was
a pretty good design as a
"mystery" character, but in actuality he really was just a clone of
Scorpion... His later appearances were alright, but the appeal for his design
kinda died out... Especially after Tobias left Midway (and MK turned to shit).
