MK9 was revealed last month at E3 2010 and it looks absolutely amazing. Which system do you think will produce the superior version - PS3 or X360? For multiplatform games, the X360 usually has a little sharper graphics. However for fighting games the PS3's control pad takes the cake. What do you think? Also check out this amazing new fatality video from the game. WARNING it's very graphic! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3kgmpiKjpAw

that vid isn't really that new.

Anyway, we'll just have to see. Both consoles are equal anyway...

Xbox 360 to play with my friends, as usually. Although the D-Pad is horrible.

Mortal Kombat needs a hype cycle chart like Sonic. I don't know how many times a new MK game was releasing and people get excited just to find out the game is mediocre at best. I really believe MK's style of gameplay is the problem. It's too slow and choppy, which was fine in the past because it was different and had gore to make up for it but gore is standard now and choppy gameplay in a fighter is just not that fun. I am hoping for the best as a fighter fan but I think this might be another let down like MK vs. DC.

Have you even seen the gameplay? The game is not slow-paced, it doesn't look as fast as UMK3 but it still looks fast.

There were many small reasons why MK vs DC failed, but the main and grand reason for it failing was because o the lack of gore. Taking gore out of a game like MK is like taking away weapons and swords in SC. As a matter of fact, most reviewers stated that MK vs DC was a great fighting game, but the lack of gore for a MK based games was a huge hinder for the game.

For a fighting game to have longevity it needs to have balanced, in depth fighting system. None of the MK's have been able to achieve this so far.

Believe me, this MK game is far different from the ones under the supervision of Midway. The only two great MK games under Midway were MK2 & UMK3. This new MK game under WB (which is really a reboot from MK 1-UMK3) is starting to look more & more better.

for games like soul calibur dead or alive tekken and virtua fighter the controller 360 workes perfectly since there are littteraly very few charcters that has moves including a quarter circle with a dpad.

but for game like street fighter mvc and mortal combat i find them unplayable with the 360 controller dpad. mortal kombat 9 will be best played on the ps3

Can anyone recommend a good X360 controller that has a responsive D-pad likes the PS2/PS3's?
