I mean on some level that is unfair but on another Mortal Kombat is the only game where if you look up "how to do combos" on youtube every single video will have at least one person each a) pissed off that their favorite character was the combo dummy or b) talking about how much they enjoy seeing the female characters beaten and killed

Is Raiden even worshiped in the MK universe? Cause if he is those followers really need to drop that. I don't think there is even a Greek god that blunders things as much as he did. Even blundered giving himself a clear message from the future.

Reading that list and then watching the hour long youtube of all the MK9 story cutscenes was fun. I love the MK story modes unashamedly, they are my favorite thing. Mk9 was really a blast to play through that story mode.

Way to go killing Onaga. Too bad you caused all this poo poo in the first place, you dope. Taste my lightning, fucker!" The fact that it was the only ending that Shujinko didn't narrate made it even better.

Do you suck at MK9 but enjoy the story mode and high level play? Click this link to this video of Vman playing it though on expert, or be like me and add to your watch later list and then forget about it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xyr0SX9Uhgc

I like how fans suddenly want a game this close from release to add the recently departed lead singer of Gwar into the roster. A game that they'll play for maybe a month at most. QUICK EVERYONE SIGN THIS ONLINE PETITION SO NETHERREALM STUDIOS CAN SPEND COUNTLESS UNPAID HOURS INTO ADDING THIS RANDOM DUDE INTO THEIR NEWEST DEATH SIMULATOR BECAUSE GWAR. Get the gently caress out of here.

I'd rather see Garth Brooks as DLC in Ultra Street Fighter 4 with Chris Gaines in Mortal Kombat X. New issue of the comic came out today, featuring Tasia, one of the bosses from that lovely Special Forces game. That's a deep cut. As for Frost, she isn't dead, so she might show up in the game after all.

Dude adding the singer for GWAR would be infinity times better than Freddy Krueger and would be awesome I'm sorry you hate things that are fun and cool. I got to see GWAR twice before dude died and it was every bit as fun as Mortal Kombat(sic).

I'm pretty sure NR were always going to add Freddy as DLC from the get go in MK9. I don't have a problem with Gwar as much as I have an issue with people thinking a petition to add the lead singer into the game this close to release is going to go anywhere.

I always felt that Freddy was more WB forcing NRS's hand. Considering they could have added other characters in that spot that already had assets in MK9, IE Tanya.

Was Kung Lao doing the downward pummel that Donnie Yen did in Ip Man? If so, that's pretty cool.

Freddy sold way better than all the other DLC characters and Scorpion outsold all the DC characters in Injustice so they're gonna keep doing guest characters and you're presumably gonna keep buying them.

So with all the promotion of Gronk and Lynch playing MKX on Conan, and the fact that sporting events are usually paired with commercials for videogames now, what are the odds that we'll see an ad for MKX during the game?

Why were the post MK3 games so bad, before Warner acquired Netherrealm? Was it Midway's fault?

Yeah the 3D trilogy of games were quite fun. Just the spinoffs and MK4 were terrible. I don't even remember why MK4 was so bad but I know it was.

MK4 was basically them rebuilding MK3 from scratch, only with worse gameplay, terrible graphics and lame gimmicks like that laughable damage cap to prevent infinites.

Yeah Deception was the lone shining star of the post mk3 to mk9 era. Kinda got all its ducks in a row. Konquest was great and fun, good stages, good roster, puzzle kombat, although wasn't terribly balanced. I don't know the numbers but apparently Armageddon was made on a shoestring budget.

precision posted:I don't even remember why MK4 was so bad but I know it was. MK4 came out during that transitional period where 2D was out and polygons were in, so everyone was focusing on making lovely-looking 3D renders and there was no focus on actually making good gameplay. So you had every character playing exactly the same, except for their small handful of special moves, and a final boss that was a poor man's Shang Tsung. Why he didn't have any of the powers he used in MK: Mythologies, I don't know. In fact, a handful of the characters in the game were just lovely versions of existing characters that existed just to make the roster feel new and fresh, but instead made it feel lame and uninspired.

Andrew Verse posted:Only MK4 was bad. The rest were decent. Armageddon wasn't good. They traded character depth for having all characters. I didn't play much MK vs DC, so I don't have much of an opinion on that game. Deadly Alliance and Deception made me realize Ed Boon will lie his rear end off about how much content his games have and to not trust him. ("super unlockables") He also pretended for months that the Wii U version of Injustice was going to get all the DLC. When it didn't he never talked about it. Why exactly do people think the late Gwar lead singer should be in the game? I only know about that band because of Beavis and Butthead.
