MK stopped using numbers for some time, which is probably why this is confusing.

There was Deadly Alliance, Deception, Armageddon, and Unchained (not sure of the order; I never played them, only read about them in magazines).

Actually, the one for N64 was MK Trilogy, which I own.

While my fighting game experience is relatively limited, MK Trilogy for N64 actually is balanced. There are no infinite juggles in the game, and what juggling there is is relatively limited as your run meter is drained to 0 once your opponent is falling through the air from a hit, along with some limitations on special moves that would lead to infinite juggling.

This game is definitely not horrible.

Read what you wrote. "Actually [In actuality; in actual fact; as in, contrary to what you just stated] the one for N64 was MK Trilogy, which I own."

They're both "the one," and "actually" would imply I was somehow wrong about MK4 being on N64. That's why I said "they both were."

I did misread his post, though.

To be more on topic. UMK3 was my favorite, by a long shot. I always played as Noob Saibot, and hit people with that smoke thing that made me invulnerable, then I'd run up to them and do his quad-kick. It was so cheap if I could hit them with it.

On February 10 2011 08:20 A3iL3r0n wrote:

Noob is definitely OP considering how easy his specials are, and they all give you free hits. His combos are equally easy and powerful. I'm Raiden player myself, but then again, he's one of the more OP characters too.

Who was the most OP in that game? I guess the version I play doesn't have infinite juggles, but I think Smoke would have to be: teleport upper-cut that could be thrown at any time, spear, air throw and invisibility. Or maybe Cryax? His net counters high and low attacks, teleport at any time, air throw (although it's much harder to land due to the buttons than Smoke's)

Yo there have been like 10 threads on MK9 in the past year plus. Your op is kinda weak but whatever.

This game is definitely going to be more tailored towards competitive balance and 'esports' style fighting game. A long time ago Ed Boon or whoever said that he didn't care about all that shit. But now that he sees the successes with FPS Games on both console and PC, RTS games, and fighting games in arcades/consoles he decided to get on the bandwagon. I have to say it looks really really good so far. It feels like the sequel we always wanted after UMK3 Back in the late 90s. Every MK game since then has been garbage imho, I never even cared about them at all.

I really expect this game to make it into EVO and gain a following. And I hope it's good enough to keep returning year after year like older Fighting games.

Only gripe I have with the game, that I've always had with MK games though. The stupid block button. Can you cross up when they are holding block? Or do the have to let go and press it again to block the other way?

You have to do this with combo combinations that take skill and time to master as well as need a right moment in the game to start them (like super moves in SF).

If that MK2 was anything like the PC version I cannot agree with you. Maybe you just didn't play it enough. Although it seems like the basic moves are the same on all characters they were actually not.

Each character needed different way to play them and learn to combine special moves with basic attacks.

What I loved about MK over SF even as a beginner was that you could not win by using only special moves or only basic attacks (well except for Cabal and Raiden in MK1). In SF we would beat each other with only special moves but in MK we had to learn to combine from the start.

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]

as long as they refuse to make the Back movement button as the default block like every other good fighting game instead of holding a stupid button, the competitive fighting scene will never take the MK franchise seriously.

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.

To be super sure no one finds out, just put it in another gamebox. I mean, dogs can't smell that game. They would have to open it up to the CD. Even through scanners its not possible to figure out what game is in the box.

By the way, don't forget to order it in PAL (Australia is PAL, right?)

nope, tekken is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay deeper.

Ryu has only 3 special moves, and it only takes a day or two to learn how to use him.

Jin has over 100 moves that you need to learn, and it'll take months or even years to really master him. Tekken strategy is so deep, each character needs a whole book just to explain all various juggles, strategies, traps, and mind games.

I'm not sure if Tekken is better than SF, but i definitely know that Tekken is far more deep and strategic than SF.

PS: Plus Tekken looks prettier too, and Nina has one fine ass.

You're funny.

Tekken is a mashfest. There are more moves for each fighter, but that doesn't make it a deeper game. In SF or any anime fighter, the matchups are all so wildly different that you need to practice them individually to be successful. In Tekken, you pretty much only have to learn your own character. The fact that each character has so many options is the exact reason why the game is not as deep, because there's a lack of variability in the matchups.

Agreed :D
and though ryu only has "3" moves (not really but ok), it boils down to how you use them and how you adjust with them in the middle of a fight. Tekken has a lot of predetermined chain juggles which turns me away in the same way as MVC.

You talking about MvC3 or MvC2? I doubt Capcom intentionally put the ROM "infinite" or sentinel fly/unfly combos into MvC2. I can say the same thing with SF, can't almost every character do lp/lp or lk/lk into special? Even though every Tekken character has a lot of moves, not all of them are useful. It's why a game like Virtua Fighter is considered deep. It's not because it requires godly execution like Guilty Gear or MARVEL. It's because there is a lot of knowledge needed to learn your character and that almost all the characters have a counter to something or another. People have preferences towards certain tools of their characters. In sense, your vsing the player and NOT the character. It's simply a different kind of "depth".

You're probably one those guys who played a Tekken game with a friend, and your friend won just by picking Eddy Gordo and simply mashing buttons, or picking Paul Phoenix and just Death Fists you all day, and it made you think that Tekken is a simple button-mashing game.

Well i can certainly tell you it's not.

On April 06 2011 03:34 Rashid wrote:


What do you mean not all of their moves are useful? Not only are each one of their moves are useful, it will even give your opponent a major disadvantage if your opponent doesn't even know about them or how to counter them.

For example, even if you're really good playing as Jin, you'd still lose badly to Yoshimitsu if you have no idea what his moves or move properties are. You'd not only have to know what Yoshimitsu can or cannot do, you'd also have to know the kind of properties each move has and what it will do to you; i.e frames, knockdown stances, oki positions, tech traps, frame traps, string moves, counter moves, etc. Seriously, Tekken is so deep it'll take at least a month for anyone to understand the basic rules and concepts of the game alone, not to mention even using just one of the characters properly.

Virtua Fighter being better than Tekken maybe true many years ago back during Tekken 4 (which was the worst Tekken in the series) but with Tekken 5 and especially Tekken 6, i think it has surpassed VF in terms of fun and gameplay.

You're confusing unnecessary complication with depth. The deepest games are some of the simplest. Go is simple to play but has more depth than other board games with rulebooks the size of phonebooks. BW doesn't have as complicated a counter system compared to WC3 and SC2 but is much deeper.

The fact that you need a month to understand the basic rules and concepts is why the game is terrible, not why the game is good. It takes 5 minutes, tops, to understand chess. Whenever your gameplay is an exercise in rote memorization, you're not exactly playing.

SF and MK were awesome because you had a limited moveset and stuff like combos were based on timing and execution, not memorizing hundreds of dial-a-combos and arbitrary counters. Reminds me of WC3's 10 different attack types and armor types.

I have a few things to say about the game. I thought it was ass when I played the demo. However coming off that I find this game easier to play than SSF4 while still maintaining an edge for the hardcore.(That is, its not a scrub button mashers game i.e. tekken 6, mvc3) Now my friend thinks scorpion's hellfire move is broken. It tracks, full screen move, and relatively quick recovery. I don't see it as that useful, any one else care to share their thoughts? Scorpion is quick enough to do long extended teleport combos but all his specials leave him vulnerable. Subzero is slow as shit but a simple 4 hit combo will drain 23% of your life. I can do 42% with scorpion and sub, scorpions being longer of course. Johnny is a total rushdown kharacter. He's horrible against subzero so far, but when he gets in on you he's a monster, especially in the corner. His xray is the most damaging of the four kharacters in the demo. Its also a counter vs. throws, hits, and point blank projectiles. Mileena has very fast recovery on most of her moves. She's very hard to hit and can do some pretty nasty combos.
Now about the preorders: I'm pretty sure no matter where you get the game you'll eventually get the klassic kostumes for all the ninjas. The krypt will have a lot of stuff in it. I pre-ordered from gamestop so I'll get scorpion's first.
I don't know if any of you has seen but there is a video of someone who had the leaked full version of the game and shows the full roster. Sheeva will be playable, and human smoke and cyborg subzero will be in the game. (The retelling changes events, such as smoke escaping and subzero getting turned into a cyborg instead of the original story). Goro and shau khan will not be playable.
In any event, I tell any who are on the fence to give the game a shot. The kombos are simple, but the fun kicks in when you figure out you can link different combos and kreate setups against your opponent to really devastate them. The 2v2 feature will also be available for 4 different people. 1 person per kharacter in a single fight. My friend and I will be going into the lab to dominate on psn.(providing we get psn back soon, sony got hacked this past week, but thats another story). Anyway this game is going to be great, its not as unforgiving as street fighter but its still not for everyone.

On a sidenote though, has anyone found an "advanced" combo list? Like, i'm aware of the 3 hit combos and such but im sure there are longer chains but i can't find them anywhere.

I'd say yes, it's a great game, the online however is laggy but I assume it's gonna get fixed
