General VIDEOGAMES / Gamesindustry Discussion

What made my eyes rain:


- They got rid off a lot of cool characters from MK9 ( and my guess is some of them will still see the light of day in form of some kind of "MK9 fighters DLC" )

- No more 1vs2 or 2vs2 tag team fights. Seriously WTF Netherrealm? How can they leave something as important as this out of the game.

- Each character ( no matter which variation ) only has one x-ray each and it gets very repetitive.





What I liked about the game:


- Each character having three variations is a nice idea to balance out match-ups and I like how you really need to focus on the individual fighting style to win.

- Maybe the graphics are not the best for current console generation, but this game runs very smooth and fluent

- Fun online modes

- Even though I complained about missing characters before, I got to admit the new ones are pretty cool too and I don't just mean the obvious Ferra / Torr and D'Vorah, but also characters like Takahashi Takeda, Cassie Cage or Jacqui Briggs.

Looks amazing and very detailed, goes perfect with all my other action figures

Even though I've been doing quite well lately in ranked matches I am still considering to buy either a fighting stick or the fighting pad they released not long ago:

They dont have very good reviews on amazon man, stuff like the buttons stop working and such but if it works let me know so I might get it too.

[black coffee]

Thanks for mentioning, in fact I didn't read any reviews up until now.

A few days ago I spoke with some dude ranked way higher than me and he told me he's been using a fight stick for many years and feels that gives him an advantage towards people who play with the normal gamepad. Needles to mention those were some humiliating losses against him, so I considered switching as well. Might just have to accept that theres no professional mkx player in me ;(

anyways how arr you liking the game and what are your favorite variations of characters?

Im enjoying it quite a lot, mostly because this is the 1st MK I play since Mortal Kombat 4 which was a long time ago.
My favorite characters so far are Ermac (Spectre Mode) and Raiden (God Of Thunder Mode).
You can tell Im a noob because the other day I was playing online and I dont know how but I executed a brutality LOL
I might look for a very good arcade stick too and if I get it first I'll let you know what brand is and how is it.
Laters man

Believe me when I tell you MK9 is one of the best games of the entire Mortal Kombat series. Came out for PS3 / 360 like 4 years ago but now with the existance of MKX I understand why you wouldn't be interested in its predecessor.

Jason looks amazing

I might have to get that extra DLC content along Predator.

regarding DLC's, I definitely want Tremor. Also Rain looks like a cool character in the story mode.

[RoyalDeftonicBoy]

On Tuesday Jason is arriving to Amazon as single DLC content. Im so getting him.

Been playing Splatoon a lot since I got it a few days ago. Game's addicting as fuck.

[RoyalDeftonicBoy]

It is more of the same but Capcom always makes say yes LOL

This fall is going to be brutal with the amount of games I'm going to want to buy.

Anyone else make out pretty well with this summers steam sale? Think I added 15+ games to my library.... feels gud. Currently playing through Dues Ex: HR, about time

[bright lights, big city]

I just trying to mop up my back catalog, and now I'm finishing up Deux Ex. Pumped for the new one. Wanna dock?

Anyone played any good games recently? I just finished The Evil Within which was pretty good.

I can't wait for Uncharted 4!
