Im super excited about MKX that ive preordered the Kollectors Edition for it, the only problem is that its for the PS4 which ive promised myself I wouldn't pick up till I finished ALL the PS3 games I have...BUT aHHHHHHH it looks SO good! Plus with the edition of Predator (Which if you listened to the Retro Fandango) you would know is my ABSOLUTE fav movie franchise!

This HAS to become a tournament thing on this forum!

TEST YOUR MIGHT!!!!!


(Ill set up some prizey type competitions if there is enough hype for this game!)

So finally got my PS4 and was able to sink my teeth into MK X REALLY deep. ill talk about what I was able to do during my session.

Story: I was a little confused at the start, if this is supposed to take place after IX, then why are most of the fighters dead? I don't remember ALL of them dying. Once I came to grips that maybe I don't remember it rightly I enjoyed what the story had to offer. Playing as human scorpion was a shock to me! The 3-4 fights with different fighters they kept from MK IX was a good decision, got to play as a wide variety of people. My only complaint was that the story mode was a little short, I was able to clear it in one sitting, when it ended I kept expecting to have more story because MK IX's story mode was long! It had a false ending in MKIX.

I was able to connect my phone to the WB play and link the PS4 MK to the iOS MK, couple new downloads.
The story is somewhat weak, compared to nine, but there is so much more to mkx. I also am addicted to the mobile app, only console unlock I need left is the injustice scorpion. Add me on psn if you want OrbitalLizards

I haven't played much in a week on the ps4 for it, but am pretty close to the plat, already got level 65 and all factions maxed though :D. There is good strategy to the mobile app, I'm currently level 40, lol.

This thing looks nice but I just dont want to buy another fighting game for full price to abandon it after few hours like I did with the previous Mortal Kombant and Guilty Gear Xrd. To be a kid again, I put insane amount of hours into Tekken 2 and Tekken 5.

Yeah, when it comes to mortal kombat it is one of the only fighting games I actually love to play. (The other is Killer Instinct) because I grew up with it being my fighting game. So I guess you can say I love to play it due to nostalgia. I think it doesn't hold your interest too long cause your game is Tekken. Mortal Kombat doesn't play like Tekken. So I can see why you would be hesitant to buy it..

Mortal Kombat is one of the things that epitomizes 90s gaming in my mind. Up there with platformer mascots with attitude, FMV, lan parties etc. There's just something about the visuals, level backgrounds and faux-oriental theme that I love. I feel that the previous MK game did a good job of keeping that style, which isn't that an easy thing to do (emulating the look and essence of 16 bit games on modern hardware).
I need to re watch the first Mortal Kombat movie some of these days

I think in my case is more of a time/effort thing. I just dont have the patience to practise against AI opponents for hours and hours, and the fighting itself doesnt bring me joy the same way it did when I played fighting games as a kid. I do play Guilty Gear X and some Cyberbots and few other Saturn fighters every now and then, but I guess when you're collector and have a huge backlog, it changes your mindset about games. I play one game and move on to the next, so games with no real purporse or ending seem almost like a waste of time. I don't play online games anymore for that same reason. It's easy to waste hundreds of hours playing Counter Strike or Warcaft 3 in just a few weeks, if you let your self get addicted. Which is a quite silly thing to say, as obviously a game you cant stop playing is doing something right.

I'm so freakin excited for this game and it could very well be my GOTY :]
Lol looking back at this. This is my least favorite game I've played so far this year. I had more fun with The Order 1886 than this game, although I still really want Predator. May splurge and try him out since I still have my copy lying around here somewhere.

Right there with you Marmul, Killer Instinct all the way! Have you played the one on Xbone yet?

I have not played the Xbone one but watched last years EVO of it, It looks awesome! However I have made the transition from Xbox to PlayStation since the 360 has left a bad taste in my mouth about Microsoft. I still don't think I can let it go that Gold Membership was paid for no reason.

Oh man, PREDATOR dropped last night, absolute awesome fighter. I personally think he is the best licensed DLC to date! Absolutely miles above Jason and Freddy for that matter. The extra skins that come with it are cool too, Jax as Carl Weathers, a thermal image skin to scorpion and Johnny Cage as Commando. Predators fatalities are pretty good, especially when its a scene recreation from Predator. Priceless!

Any idea if they're going to release a "GOTY" edition of this with all the DLC? Predator sounds cool, but I refuse to buy DLC out of principle

They probably will do a GOTY edition. The Kombat pack DLC they have includes so far Jason, Tanya, Predator and will include Tremor when he releases as well as a tonne of skins for characters, most of the skins are free to be honest which is nice, so you are actually paying money for added content rather than for maps or skins.
