sorry bro, hopefully u find a way to get this game, hope u dont miss out on it


Found a way: Hong Kong PS3 game's aren't region coded and customs isn't too switched on.


ah you sure about customs not being switched on? i'm all for importing and all, but i just can't risk getting fined $110,000 -_-


Don't do it bro, that is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much money for any kind of risk involving playing a video game hah

Get a friend from overseas to buy it for you, then put it in the case of a different game and send it to you. That should be safe...right?

Just finished watching this http://www.justin.tv/s1ayer/b/283781276 partial story mode + online play. Gameplay seems to be good.

Back in the day I remember playing SF1+2 but the moment MK got released everyone jumped over to MK, almost none played Street Fighter anymore. And when MK2 got released SF2 was a dead game. Now I don't think something like that will happen again but I do hope MK9 and SF4 get on some kind of equal level of e-sport popularity. I really hope MK9 can get some love from really hardcore SF4 players.

Edit: Full story mode http://www.youtube.com/user/agino11#p/u/35/5xTSlxalLbk
27 parts of 12-15 minutes .... roughly 6 hours for story mode what seems to be played at medium difficulty. Thats just insane for a fighting game.

lolllllllllllll

Actually, major tournaments still run SF2 tourneys in 2011. You literally couldn't be more wrong haha.

Anyone got an early copy yet? Might be able to get lucky with some local vendors not caring about street dates!

I'm kinda hoping to see some tournament streams for this game, the sooner the better. I'm curious to see what tournament play will look like, as I haven't seen an MK game get tournament play since UMK3.

just look at the gameplay ..
it doesn't really support competitive play. ridiculous special moves. etc.
it wasn't designed to be played in tournaments.

it's more or less a party game imo
will be fun to play like that
And all is illuminated.

Thanks for the story mode link... It is wrong for me to be turned on by Sheeva... Nice long legs, G string...

But yeah, BS to whaty ou're saying about SF2 being less popular than MK. Definitely not the case in Asian circles.

In my case, where I come from (Amsterdam), in our little arcade/snes community (25-30 people that I knew that played games), none played SF2 anymore when MK2 was released. And that was in 1992-1993 I believe.

I must say that after watching the entire story mode... I am quite disappointed. The ending was rather lackluster, plus + Show Spoiler +
really, if Raiden wanted to end things earlier all they needed to do was make sure that Shao Khan was dead after Liu Kang defeated him
. And there were + Show Spoiler +
really only three 'fatalities' - firstly where Scorpion burnt Sub-Zero, secondly when Jax has his arms ripped off, and thirdly when Sindel rips Jade's lung out
.

The one scene I did enjoy, however, was + Show Spoiler +
when Raiden dive attacked Motaro
.

Truth be told after watching the whole thing I don't feel any desire to play the game anymore... The movements just seem exactly as awkward as every other Mortal Kombat game. Jump attack, block, uppercut, repeat.

Just finished watching the story mode also, and it way way better than I expect of any fighting game. Heck, it was even better than the MK movie.

And if Raiden would've + Show Spoiler +
just killed Shao Khan earlier, couldn't Quan Chi simply have resseructed him? Seems like some kind of divine intervention is needed to keep things dead for Quan Chi and + Show Spoiler +
Shinnok


And if they would've used more fatalities, it would've meant that it would be even more characters you couldn't fight until the end... The twin brother thing is already a cliché as it is.

Don't you think though that they really + Show Spoiler +
regurgitated way too many characters, such as Baraka and Sheeva
. I'm sure they could have + Show Spoiler +
used more characters twice in the various fights you had to do, or even characters that weren't used at all, like Montaro
.

Rofl, its kinda retarded that u can get fined that much because of an video game. Its so sad people in some countrys arnt allowed to watch or play what they want, because some oldie decided its bad for u.

The KOTH mode alone is worth it. The game play is much better and it actually seems like it's geared more for hardcore competitive play. I've seen some videos of sick fights already with combos going 10-15 hits.
