If I hear 'Shao Kahn wins' one more time I may actually hurl something at my TV

Just spam him with ranged attacks and jump over his hammer.

In the fight as Liu Kang, or in the fight with Raiden? Either way just keep away from Shao Kahn as much as you can and hit him with projectile moves. When He throws the hammer, jump over it pr teleport and uppercut him. He will also try to taunt you. This will give you a chance to get free hits on the guy. If he charges at you then try to jump kick him.

Just for comparison, are the fights tougher to win in this game than in MK vs. DCU?

Well I beat him with Liu Kang, all I had to do really was wait for him to show off or taunt so I could use my Flying Dragon Kick, which I could do from a great distance. Other than that, I just had to jump over his large glowing spears and use my bone-crushing move at the right moment....

[spoiler] ...but much to my surprise, that wasn't the end of the story mode. [/spoiler]

He's even harder in arcade mode imo. But I've gotten used to his attack patterns. I can really own him with Ermac now.

This. Also he has just a very limited amount of moves he uses, it's pretty easy to discover how to block / evade them :S I suck at fighting games but I was able to beat him both times, using ranged in the first fight and using teleport in the second

No, that honor goes to the younger Togoro brother in Yu Yu Hakusho: The Dark Tournament for PS2. One combo takes your whole life bar.

what I did when you fight him as Raiden is teleport and uppercut....it worked like a charm lol...especially if you keep your distance he'll do a range attack which is the perfect time to do this lol

I beat him with Rayden and I only teleported used an uppercut and used an ehanced special instead of an X Ray Combo because 2 can hit him. The best time to use it is when he is taunting you.

Well unfortunately I have to fight him again, this time with Raiden. Could somebody please explain to me what his excuse is for using cheap shots? By that I mean throwing spears at me 4 times in a row and slamming his hammer into me without even giving me a chance to get up? Because this is just getting ridiculous.

Well after nearly an hour and a half of playing against him only, I've finally beaten Shao Kahn, thus completing the story mode. I had to play as Raiden, and basically what I did was jump over him whenever he tried to swing his hammer or hurl a spear and perform a low upswing punch, and kept doing that until he was defeated. And I must say, the feeling after finally destroying him was phenomenal.

It's a fighting game, bosses are meant to be cheap and nasty. But to be perfectly honest I beat him on my second try, maybe you just need more practice TC.
