I might check this out at some point, though to be honest some of the magic has just been lost for me since playing the first 3 games as a kid. I especially don't like the direction that a lot of fighting games are going in their art style anymore, of having these ridiculously over the top buff characters with almost wacky looking, cartoony animations. Miss the days of MK1/2 where Scorpion and Sub-Zero actually looked like ninjas instead of WWE wrestlers.  Anyway hopefully this brings a much needed revival to the series. P.S. Cyrax and Sektor are so awesome I'm glad they brought them back. | ||

The character Kratos from the God of War series is available as a playable (in versus mode only) character exclusively on the PlayStation 3 version.[38] Boon stated that the Mortal Kombat team felt Kratos would "fit perfectly" into the Mortal Kombat universe.[39] reason enough to get the PS3 version instead of xbox one! oh man can't wait to see his fatalities :D | ||

and they really should take the time to model and texture and animate their characters properly. Compared to every other 3D japanese fighting game, all of the MK franchises have incredibly shitty character models with an over reliance on shading and even shittier animation. But from the looks of MK 9 this has been significantly improved, although not to the level of games like Street Fighter 4 and Tekken 6. | ||

Kratos' voice, isn't that the voice from the guy that played Doctore/Oenomaus in Spartacus:BaS/GotA tv series :D? | ||

kinda cool. i was never a fan of the 3-d fightings games (except for T3 and TTT1) but tag team modes in 3-d fighters are always fun to play casually. and the more the merrier ^^ | ||
