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

Sektor is by far the most annoying one to me. Using that teleport uppercut all the time >.>mrmusicman247

Yea its like he can read your mind. I also love how you can be near the end on expert and somehow the AI knows it and just beats you down then after you lose they calm down.

To be fair, A.I. does technically read your mind. They attack based on what you input mostly.

Okay, having finished the ladder for the first time: Shao Khan is bulls*** and doesn't belong. This game is better than that.

Oh dear lord im this close to breaking my controller. Dam expert without losing once is so anoying. The AI pull some crap out of nowhere and you end up getting screwed and once your screwed if you try again afteryou faild the trophy taskthe AI becomes tame all of a sudden. Also why is this trophy a borze its worth at least a silver.

i finally went got into challenge tower again.. :D.. i loved that fight were subby was in his klassic costume.. >.>. too bad i dont have any codes. HitomiChan

Isn't that fight around 150 or something? If so you are on a roll :P. I am at 185, and that challenge (four arms) is driving me NUTS. I hate playing as Baraka :(. Kintaro makes me so angry lol.

Finished the challenge playing as Stryker fighting 3 Shao Khan's. Definitely the hardest challenge I have faced in the game so far..

I'm at the 80th challenge. Hardest one so far was Reptile vs. Jax and Sonya. For some reason they were really working me. Every chance they got they did a 6-hit combo...Cherokee_Jack

Don't give them the chance! lol :P, I take it you dont use reptile either? I kind of wish you could play as anyone in the tower, and they just left the forced character selection to story.

That would have made the challenges way too easy though, I always breeze past the ones where you play as Sub zero.

I've mostly played the tower so far, so I haven't really had a chance to find my 'main' or anything. I like that they make you use a series of characters, because you're forced to learn each character a bit when the odds are stacked against you.

Reptile is actually one of my favorite characters so far, but I really had to get serious and use my specials effectively in that fight. The AI seemed a lot harder to trick than in any other challenge.

Yeah I know :( lol. I just HATE some of the characters :P. How the hell do I beat Kintaro anyway? It's bad enough I have to beat Sheeva and Goro first, not to mention while being baracka :evil:

Yeah I played all of the story first and some ladders so I guess by then you start to like a certain character or two, which makes it annoying to play as Baracka, Kano, and Sub Zero in the tower :P. But whatever, it is a challenge lol.

lmao I think I can speak for both of us (maybe not), when I say that I do not intend to master every character :P. But I completely forgot you could skip them for a cost. I feel like I am cheating if I do that :P.

EDGE gave MK9 a 6 -_- I read the review and all I got from it was that they hate MK. They compared it to SF as if every game needs to be a SF or else it's dated or some crap. Shrugging of all the things MK does good in terms of SP. Sigh, EDGE reviews tend to be all over the place for me; either too harsh, too generous or just plain different for the sake of just being different, MK9 being such an example. Most critics agree that for what MK is it's a great step for the franchise but noo MK just has to be MK and that isn't good enough for EDGE. I agree with them at times but in most occasions they really act like some elitist gamers.

Who cares though, I got the game and am loving it like Im sure most of you guys are.

MK9 NPD: FLAWLESS VICTORY.

Glad MK did so well. Fightng genre has made a triumphant return. About the only thing I want Japanese developers to take from MK9's success is to not create fighting games with bare bone content. Just because the SF's, Tekken's etc have better combat does not give the devs an excuse to not create compelling SP modes and unlockables. I was really looking forward to SSF4 before it was released, sure the gameplay and characters were awesome but it was downright stupid of them to strip back the SP modes, and the excuse ? oh it's for teh online gamers. No Capcom! Gamers like Survival and Time attack modes! MK9 is a fun game, the combat is the best in the series though still not up to par with Japanese fighters but what MK9 did great was having lots of amazing modes; Ladder, Story, Challenges, 'Test Your' games etc. Fighting games that release in the future should be compared to MK9 in terms of content, if they don't have half as much then no sale from me. No matter how good the gameplay is it is no excuse for bare bone content.

Knowing Japanese devs they will probably take MK's success as a message to Westernise their fighting games -_-

I spend 99% of my single player time in training mode. I'm fine with bare bones fighters. I like it that way.

Don't give Capcom an excuse to even get rid of the arcade mode -_- They will you know...

as for me i cant wait for their next game.. X3.. im really excited what Netherealm studios will do next time and what kind of stuff they might add.. :D.. i wasnt really into MK but they sure made a fan out of me with mK9. HitomiChan

Turn some of that excitement towards the DLC :D I don't want another MK for at least 2 years. That should give them enough time to make the next MK bigger and better.

I doubt they'd do that. Their games at least start off in the arcades, though I don't think MvC3 did, but whatever.

I'd be fine as long as there was a Versus mode and a Training mode.

Maybe they could be cool and put in color edit mode again, like Darkstalkers has.

aargh.. :x.. DLC. i love the game and all but i dont think ill get any DLC for it. :(HitomiChan
