Mortal Kombat Hype thread!!..56k Finish him!!! Hype met GS 8.5

"That online pass token will be included with new copies of the game, reportedly, and will cost 800 Microsoft Points / $9.99 USD for those who purchase the game second hand."

If we get it new, we're okay! Ever since EA put this scheme together, I've never tried to buy a used game from them ever. But still, it is a clever idea to get money from used games/rents.

Hobbsey07

I know it's crrazay but I sort of support the idea of an online pass, more cash to the devs. Maybe its because it doesn't really affect me much since I normally always buy games brand new and am not a huge online player.

Hope this isn't true:x

MK Stage Renders

Im really digging(intended) the Graveyard stage, I hope it has a stage fatality that involves zombies coming out and ripping the loser apart.

These are looking pretty damn awesome. :D

Looks like they lost me as a first day customer lol. Way to go, this is how you treat your consumers? I will just wait unitl the game is new for 20 or less, or even ebay it and I will still get my online pass. Lets see how they like me getting their game brand new and shrink wrapped with an online pass. Haha pay 10 dollars to play MK online with god only knows the worst netcode there is. This is only going to create more pirates and decrease sales for new games. People will be more particular with which games they buy. This is going to backfire so bad in the long run. Then the devs will just think of another reason to screw the consumers over and charge even more money and blame it on something else lol.

If everyone is planning on buying it day one, how does the code thing even effect you? IDK, doesnt seem like a big deal to me *shrugs*, and I would hate to not support the MK team because their parent company (publisher) is implementing something against their will.

The only thing I have against the online pass is in certain games your friend might wanna try online but they cant now unless they use your ps3. To me thats the only headace. Besides that I think its fine since gamestop loves selling used games for the price range of 55-57.99 so they can get profit not the devs. God that company is awful.

I really doubt it is against their will...and I guess you have never heard of principle. It is wrong, and even though it may not affect me directly, it affects others (and no not pirates like you will all say)

Drug lord sells coke and games. You buy a game form him, he buys more weapons to kill civilians. Doesn't affect you, but you supported him. I give money to those greedy EA dogs, they will use that for their pockets and keep enforcing these BS rules. And if you think the Devs are getting more money out of this you are dead wrong. It is the top share holders that see this profit to get their new Bugattie. Everyone who worked their butt off on the game is already paid. They are not going to see another dime. And this is coming from someone who is an audio engineer for Naughty Dog.

Unless you have hardcore proof like papers or you at the office with the devs pics then im not believeing that.

And gamestop sucks. They sell you a used copy of a game (that is in awful condition) for more than a new copy of a game on Amazon. buying used is overrated.

It was nice seeing some gameplay of my lady jade.

This is getting silly we are about to hit april can this please get a sticky. The thread deserves it 100%.

Noob/Ermac VS Reptile/Sektor

Not the best video, but at least it shows some characters that have been less shown.

I initially hyped it as 9.0

I take it back. This will be a AA release.

I guess they wont care unless people start spamming other MK threads.

In other news :P

I had to take a break from the demo after burning it into the ground, but finally decided to get back on it. And damn my Sub Zero skills just somehow launched through the roof! I can consistently land a lot of heavy hitting combos, the maximum being 43% (no xray move bs). Better than anything I can consistently pull off with Scorpion.

Sub Zero is definitely a beast, but they make his moves seem so awkward. So many things that seem unlikely to work in a combo actually do.

Here is the commands for his crazy combo.

back + square, triangle, ice ball, jump (straight up), square (before landing), forward dash, back + square, triangle, triange, square, back triangle, slide (ex slide for extra damage).

The timing is a little odd, but once you get it, its easy every time.

SPOILER!!!!!! don"t know if this was posted yet but here"s all the characters vs screen renders

A few pages late bud, but still cool. I don't dislike Smokes appearance in this game, but its not at all what I would have expected.

:lol:

Cool, cool, but I don't want to take credit for this one. I had roughly the same idea and was getting similar combos, but here is a video of the one I listed above.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGm8mIn0uvc

It makes it a lot easier to learn the timing when you see it in action. I broke it down and practiced the different segments of the combo individually before being able to put it all together.

Replace the slide at the end with an EX slide for an extra percent.

Man,can´t wait for this one!

Man the tag team looks so hard to be good at. I have never played a tag team match of MK :( lol. Jade looks pretty cool in that recent vid, but Noob still remains the character I am most excited to use :).

Same here. Noob just looks sick.... but I am curious to see what this new cyborg Sub-Zero can do. 8)

Might not be the best environment to learn the combo. :P

But as long as you can land that first hit, the rest is guaranteed.

Yea I see those tag team combos and im just like dam! thats going to take some time to learn what connects well with my teams.

I just feel if I can catch the cpu on the hardest dif then it will make me better at catching human players. I want to be at least decent-good in this game for 2 reasons one being cause I know im going to have tons of fun with this game and two being that some of the trophies are a bit tuff. Like 10 in the row win rank and 10 in the row win in king of the hill.

Is the stage fatality for the tree level in the demo?percech

sandbox3d

Ahh yes that combo, a good one. Here's another attack that you can perform after the text in red; triangle, triangle, circle, slide or of course ex power slide. I frequently use both combo's on extreme. And when you corner the CPU Sub zero can become quite deadly once you freeze and jump punch them, allowing for multiple square punches then triangle, square, triangle just when they are nearing the ground. Or triangle triangle, slide special. I normally string combos into x-ray for maximum damage, course you can only do that once in match and timing has to be absolute.

Baraka's X-ray

Looks more like a fatality to me.:P

^^^ Ouch! Can eye lend you a hand ? lol.

OH and it's MK month! 3 weeks till the game, well 19 days for you guys in America.

Still no 360 demo? I want to compare both versions! :cry:

Oh and Baraka's X-Ray looks to strong to be an X-Ray.
