Yeah I got it, was wondering if you meant that for 360 and not like MK/DC or something. Yeah we can play later, I suck and know like no combos but I’ll practice as I go.
those mugen mk vids someone posted were sick as hell. shang tsung’s fatality and laugh >>>>>>>>>>> *
Yeah, I understand the guy and all, and I dont blame him. But you can still fix very same issues that prevent the game from being fun to play; clunky controls, stiff animation, redundant move to name a few.
I’m not asking for a deep ass VF clone, all I want is a smooth playing 3D fighting game.
This is the problem with MK, at least current MK. The steps they took for MK vs. DCU were good steps. The game is fun. The problem is that it always feels like too little too late. We should have been playing this engine back with MK:DA in 2002. Maybe with the new guard at Warner Bros. and the fact that MK vs. DCU is actually a good engine the development team can actually cultivate what they’ve got and refine it rather than try to reinvent the wheel every few years.
9pm tonight. rawr. i be randomly busy, or lazy.
oh my god i got stomped tonight. i think i lost twenty straight, and took one round. lol. mexicans and texans are too good. lol
Aren’t those the same thing?
If you live in Texas no, but anywhere else yeah could be called the same.
I re-downloaded UMK3 and I still suck, need to find a move list and remember this shit.
Nothing, beyond Ed Boon stating that they’ve started doing motion capture stuff, and there will be no superheroes in MK9.
I’m hoping for a full reboot. New developers, fresh start and all.
they should hire David Sirlin. I bet he’d make MK a legit fighting game.
I find this site useful, to get general ideas.

I feel the urge to play UMK3 again. Curses.
guy that started the thread, you talkin bout the 3d MK’s? because that shit is…shit.
i was just playing MK: armaegeddon yesterday, & that is the worst fighting game i ever played. Every match is either a): opponent does a combo, you block, you do a combo, they block, OR, b): you both spam specials. When i was trying to play smart, turtling waiting for an opportunity to start a combo, i would get owned. Then i said fuck it, button mashed, & got a perfect. it actually DISCOURAGES smart play. bag of ass.
Cool looking, but only helpful if your wanting to be a low level player…
All this talk about MK made me get UMK3 for DS. Man, I loved MK as a kid. And now I have rediscovered that love. Too bad I have a PS3, or I’d get that online UMK3.
How is MK2 on PS3 btw?
The best port of any MK game, ever. Very faithul to the arcade Rv3.1.
Only gripes are no voice chat during match, the volume is excessively high and the leaderboards and scoring system is retarded, even for a game w/ netplay. (its based on your longest win streak, and with PSN’s “make as many accounts as you want to”, the number of streaks have been heavily abused.)
Oh, and like UMk3 on XBLA, no button configuration.
That’s so weird
Sounds good though. How is the netplay? Playable?
Its not bad, just depends on the connections, which seems to be crappy for the most part. A system with built in Wi-Fi doesnt mean you have to use it people! (Buy a damn ethernet cable!)
But its definitely above average in netplay, but with the fact the gameplay is slow as it is, maybe it just seems that way?
i dont.
It’s just that SRK doesn’t understand the MK series. They’re stuck on block stun, hit stun, KARA GRABS (Jeesum crow what does that EVEN MEAN!~?). MK is America incarnate and these japanophiles would rather stick what they know more about (or rather what they don’t know about, because only 8/* get recognition here).
AMERICA IS MORTAL KOMBAT.
If “Tobias” never left “Midway”, where would “Mortal Kombat” be today? Did Boon really run the company into the ground? Are we let down as fans?
