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

[QUOTE="archvile_78"]

[QUOTE="mitu123"] Aren't most fatalities needed to be unlocked?BodomArmy666

Yeah they all have one fatality when starting, need to buy the rest.

Also after trying Kabal i just don't like him, probably just me but IMO he doesn't play well. l;

im just talking about a move not a fatalitiy..havent you ever played a mortal kobat before

Yes, and the eye laser was a fatality in Ultimate MK3

360 controller is crap for this MK, its just not comfortable to play with the dpad, and the analog stick is too inacurate. I think i'll have to swap this for the PS3 version.

lol yep. The PS3 controller is one of the most versatile controllers out there, but it may not be the most comfortable for all games in some peoples eyes.

Possible story mode spoilers

[spoiler] I just got done with the story mode and i enjoyed it though there's time i felt you had to be cheap in order to win certain fight, such as against shao kahn, getting up close to him is pointless as he's just spamming his charge attack and the invincibility frames on boss just annoy me to no end. Anyway spent a good 9h to do the story so yeah it wasn't as short as i expected! [/spoiler]

Oh and i already have about 50% of the krypt unlocked. :P Expected stuff to cost a lot.

So I just got the game for 52.99 thanks to using a 10 bucks off reward zone card from Best Buy and I got a free 10 bucks gift card.

Life is well.:D

HGGGGNNNNNNNNNNN

Both of my score predictions were shut down today. What is happening to me?

And I don't want to be That Guy, but the review totally sounds like a 9.

Shao Kahn has never been fair! Good score non the less.

Great score. Too bad I have to wait until the 23rd to play it.

Narrowly escaped being a flop to lol.

The thing most fighting games have the uber cheap/uber powerful boss fight. Seth in SF4 was cheap,the ultimate characters in BB were meant to be over powered and anoying such as ultimate hazama. SNK has a history of making cheap boss fights ing fighting games. MVC2 the boss didint get stoped by supers especially the green form.So yea.

Also all these reviews and even GS review and still no sticky. God the mods must hate mortal kombat.

What's a Mortal Kombat game without cheap boss fights?:P

Good score. Probably a good thing they didn't score it above MvC3.Ace6301

I wish it would have just to see the bords explode.

Never been the biggest MK fan but I have to say, I'm glad the Fighting Genre has made a comeback this gen.

Looks pretty good but i've always been a capcom fighter guy but i may get this when it's cheaper

I knew it would get that, and judging by other reviews and user reviews this game did just fine :). I need to play my copy lol.

It may not be the most technical fighter but the amount of content and storylineare outstanding. You could learn something from this Eastern devs.

This is probably my most hyped game for the year, glad its getting great reviews. Cant wait to give it a try.

I have only played one match so far lol, but I think its great. Graphics are NOT a 7.5 IGN :evil:.

Bbbbbut 1993 art design!

Because you know, you always expect cutting-edge modern sensibilities from Mortal Kombat.

Tell me about it. lol. Anyway, as the cherokee posted above, the art style diss was lame. I love it and honestly I didnt know that art styles have gotten better. I will be damned if Super Metroid doesnt have some of the best art :P.

Man i just read what the 300th challenge will be and i can see myself scream profanity for a long while

His overall pros of the game were even more than some 9.5 games. Shao Khan mustve really pissed him off though. lol. Great score nonetheless.

Even though i don't think i can call it spoilers i'll type what it is between spoilers tag.

[spoiler] Its you versus Goro, Kintaro, Mileena and Shao Kahn all in one fight, i believe there's no health regen between each opponent too [/spoiler]

^Yeah, I'm going to have a hard time with that...

*sees poll results*

Wow!! It was close to flop.

Good score but I can't help to think they should've reviewed the PS3 version instead. Oh well, we all know the bias of this site so what gives...

[spoiler] mods, that last part was,of course, onlya joke... no moderation for me :evil: [/spoiler]
