Oh, my bad. I only answered "why he changed" not "why was he good".

One 'good' aspect I always found in Goro besides his alliance with Kitana was in Kung Lao's MK Gold ending. Of course Lao wanted revenge after his ancestor's death, and attacked Goro, giving him a great scar on his chest from his hat (the scar seemed to vanish unfortunately). Goro and Kung Lao became allies after it was decided the score was settled. An evil being would've finished Kung.
And when was Sheeva ever good? Y'all are losing it.
As a side debate, Frogger seems to think Sub-Zero never even looked Chinese. He was American. You must've missed his second ending in MKII, so here it is.

I'm completly aware of his MKII ending, but in modern games with better graphics, they seemed to have retconned that fact.

Whether or not he lived in American he is from Chinese descent. It's totally understandable to look Chinese. If anything I was annoyed 'cause they screwed up how he looks in later games.

Yeah, I know what you mean. Li Mei and Bo' Rai Cho "look the most Asian" yet they aren't even from Earthrealm.

I appreciate the compliment Shin. I do my best to expand and elaborate as much in my answers as possible while wording them in an understandable way. There will always be people like smiley98 who will find ways to nitpick the little things, but for the most part I'd like to think I get everything right. Sometimes when I'm tired or it's been a while since I've played a particular MK game I'll get a little thing wrong, but usually you can count on me.

I would disagree with that. The later games are basically retcons of earlier ones when something doesn't match, because the later games tend to extrapolate more on the bios and storyline, and have better graphics to portray the characters. Not only that, but the Lin Kuei is not limited to hiring only Chinese members (despite them being a Chinese clan). Otherwise, how would you explain Cyrax's human form? He's black, and no where remotly near asian in appearance. I have to admit I originally detested the idea of Sub-Zero and Cyrax not being Chinese considering that's what the Lin Kuei was originally, but I've come to accept they hired members from all over the place.
Back on the topic of Sheeva. She was a pretty kickass character to use in MK3, but in MK:AR, I find there are too many other fan favourites for me to choose, so I rarely, if at all, select her. Not to mention the fact she's like salt in the eyes to look at now. 
As a side note, psyco and Shin, the site is for discussions more than little chit chats. Rather than making a stream of quickly-made, short replies, save those for MSN or other instant messeging programs. That way there aren't pages worth of two people going on a dialogue together and it saves some scrolling space. Just my two cents.

No, Sheeva was never present in any other games except for MK3, UMK3, MKT and MK:Armageddon and there is no info about what she was doing during MK2. However, there is a bit of information about what happened to her during MK3 in the Konquest mode of MK: Deadly Alliance:
| Kano's Konquest Mode wrote: | Although Motaro had rescued Kano, it was merely to imprison him so he could later face the wrath of Shao Kahn for his failure to defeat Sonya. But the Shokan warrior, Sheeva, slew Motaro outside of Kano's cell. She was on her way to assassinate Shao Kahn as well when Kano offered his assistance if Sheeva let him out of his cage.
Kano and Sheeva proceeded to the throne room of Shao Kahn. When they arrived at the door, Kano suggested that he go in first to distract the Emperor. Kano would give the signal for Sheeva to enter and slay the peroccupied Shao Kahn. But Kano betrayed Sheeva and informed Shao Kahn of her assassination plot. When Kano called her in, Shao Kahn thrust a sword through her chest from behind. |
This is a deeper description of the events described in Kano's MK:DA bio:
| Kano's biography wrote: | | Kano had been defeated in a battle with the Special Forces agent Sonya Blade during Shao Kahn's invasion of Earthrealm. Shao Kahn incarcerated Kano for his failure, but later hastily promoted him to General when he prevented the Emperor's assassination at the hands of the Shokan warrior known as Sheeva. |
