Mortal Kombat

[$migg Cant Rap]

Extend the games life by building on good mechanics and core gameplay. Why do you think SF has the following it does? You don't see such absurd madness in SF4 or SSF4 do you? They're going the extra mile to make sure people forget about this game.

7.5 - 8.3 watch when the reviews come in, and if it is anything higher, I'll have no problem saying I was wrong.

thats good, because i'm thinking closer to 9. sites like IGN LOVE extra modes. i've noticed that theme in their reviews. they said the main problem was the lack of modes in MVC3 outside of the basic fighting. criticized ea mma for the same thing. & plenty of other games (FNC). i'm 100% positive it wont get less than an 8.5.

now how will the fighting mechanics stack up? we'll see. but for someone who likes single player gaming more than multiplayer, i'm surprised you cant at least appreciate the effort.

This game is pretty dope. Got to try it out in 3D. Nothing to jaw dropping. Just the characters pop out but the background is still the same. Cant wait to buy it tho.

the demo is an early build of the game....the ending portion makes the demo worth the download

the announcer/commentary/ sound fx suck in the demo...hopefully shit changes there

also the music is a bit low

the game seems a bit slower than i thought it was...

overall demo is fun...short and sweet.. wont keep my interest until 4-19 but still fun until the main event

 

[MysticOracle]

the official game will be a minimum of a 9 rating....the game should be an instant classic , plus with all the bonus/hidden stuff also the extra modes of game play...its definitely worth the price...i think i read something somewhere about story mode being close to 15 hours of play alone...and then you have that 300 challenge ladder...also the "test your" modes..

Mysticoracle: that was my only beef with the mk series is that it seemed too slow since I have been so used to the street fighter style of game play. Kind of debating on pre ordering now that u said that. Is it hella slow? U think they will improve it? Thanks.

 

[MysticOracle]

it feels to me about the same as mk vs DC did...

keep in mind that this demo is based on a very early build of the game so alot has been changed, even the unreal engine had been updated since....

i only complained about the speed because the videos I've seen make it seem very fast paced, bit even stringing combos on the demo felt slower than what i have seen recently, also coming off of MVC 3 would make any fighting game seem slow

 

[Whisper408]

[Rasan]

oh what the hell. i'ma pre order it right now lol

It will get a metacritic rating of 85, just like damn near every game released in the last 5 years.

Ratings don't mean shit to me.

The demo is pretty good, hopefully the full game will be even better, which from looks, it will be.

That was the last MK game and it was released within the last 5 years.

A 72 isn't that much different than an 85, especially considering how badly that game was recieved. I'm shocked it didn't get a 50-60, honestly. And the User score is an 83...

Also, that last game was censored like crazy by DC. It's not really fair to compare MK vs DC to this new MK.

 

[HERESY]

A 72 isn't that much different than an 85,

There is a big difference.

And the User score is an 83...

Out of 31 people while the metascore is based on 61 critics/reviews.

Here is an example of a user review:

I really like this game, the story isn't much but it's cool what shao kahn and darkseid have become. The controls are pretty easy for a fighter and the combos range for simple to just plain awesome! Only one thing this awesome game lacks though, more characters and more unlockable characters.

That person gave it a 9. Would you trust his review? Honestly, if you had never heard of the game before would you trust that review? And by asking that question I'm not suggesting one should trust the reviews of websites, magazines and people who have special interests.

And I'm not really comparing the two. I'm just showing you that the last MK game, which was released witht he last five years, did not have a metacritic rating of 85. But like I said, if I'm wrong I'll have no problem admitting it. I simply don't see this game scorign that high, but shit Halo:Reach got 9's and higher so who knows?

i liked alot from mk vs DC...the fighting was on point, breaking through walls, fighting while dropping thousands of feet, close combat could have been better...but most of why this game sucked was due to DC censorship.. a teen rated MK...that killed it...otherwise it would have been a great game. most of that game setup mk 9 ad far as character modeling and fighting....as much as this game is being pumped...it will receive high ratings...i could rate an early build demo around a 5-6..and then knowing there is still so much more to come in the final product...its going to rate high..especially for replay value and game modes-challenge tower
