I want my old MK back. :[

truncheon6556d ago

@ juuken: your old MK still exists, noone took it away. you want them to just keep making the same game over and over? i think this has the potential to be good.

juuken6556d ago

No, not really.
Bah, let's just see how this game will work.

truncheon6556d ago

sure, there's the potential for them to eff it up but i'm optimistic. there's precedent for good fighting game crossovers.

MK_Red6556d ago

The main problem is that this game will hurt the overall story if it's canon and also, it's a T rated game. Some games aren't meant to be T. Like MGS, GTA or God of War.

Also, with the power of next-gen, this MK could have had the most gruesome and realistic fatalities to date but with the T rating... At least they got the fatalities back even though they'll be "T" rated fatalities :D

truncheon6556d ago

they've done so many creative finishers already: babalities, brutalities, friendships, suicides, etc. i will be really disappointed if they dont do something interesting with the DC chars.

Doppy6556d ago

I can't help but think this game is going to be garb-bage. Maybe if they had these match ups it would work.

Mortal Kombat vs. Killer Instinct
or
Marvel Universe vs. DC Universe

HateBoy6556d ago

Abomination, that's the word I was looking for!

Omegasyde6556d ago

I don't mind the mix too much but getting rid of the Mature rating is just stupid.

what will the next game be?
MK vs. Hanna Montana?

Ed Boon, I hate you.

So far the only good thing about graphics is the design of Scorpion. Also, the game doesn't look too UE3ish even though I have to see it in motion to be sure.

Mwaan6556d ago

I'm actually only concerned with the gameplay at this point. I'll let everything else slide if it has a great fighting engine. The DC characters are blending in quite well. Maybe this won't be so bad.

MK_Red6556d ago

Gameplay is definitly important but most of all, I'm concerned about fatalities and the rating. I pray that the game ends up M rated instead of T and with all the possible gory finishers.

After the M rated fatalities, gameplay is definitly the most important part.

DG6556d ago

It looks decent. I love my MK games, matter of fact its the only fighting games I like. They could fuq it up but just let them do their thing if it flops they will have another one next year. As for the story whens the last time an MK story was good or even made sense? 1999?

MK_Red6556d ago

DG, actually MK's story has always made sense before Armageddon. You just have to really get into it and avoid crappy non-canon and wrong stuff the 2 MK movies.

xionpunk6556d ago

I actually liked the idea of Armageddon's story, but they screwed it up with that weak ending (the whole third option= nothing changed thing)
I thought it was gonna reset the series kinda, but they flaked out.

The hell? Mortal Kombat rated T for Teen even though fatalities are included?

No way am I shelling out $60 for this. I bought previous Mortal Kombat games because of their gruesome combat and fatalities not for some rated Teen action, that's what Tekken and Soul Calibur is for. Guess I'll be missing out on Mortal Kombat this gen.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle40d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde46d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy47d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12546d ago (Edited 46d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga48d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit47d ago (Edited 47d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199247d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga47d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac47d ago (Edited 47d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman47d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger47d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box48d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion47d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7248d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7548d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit47d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14948d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7748d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
