Mortal Kombat X

It could have been that they tried to do what he said and it didn't work like they thought, calling it a lie seems a bit much.

They may have hoped they could fix it and either could not or would not from some reason. That being the case they should have said "we hope we can resolve the issue before the DLC arrives" but they said they WILL fix it before DLC arrives and they never fixed it.

To me that's a straight up lie.

Now it all comes down to if the game is deep enough that there will be a competitive scene online for more than 2-3 months. MK9 may have been stuffed with content but the competitive scene pretty much died after 2-3 months with only a select few that kept playing in tournaments and such.
 
Personally, I dont care about online. MK is a game that my buddies and I get together, order some pizza, and play for hours.
 
Game looks great and damn fun. Hopefully Capcom will announce Street Fighter V next year.

If they do I hope they change the art style, the last few games have had really strange looking faces.
 
Interview with Ed Boon, one nice thing he says at the end is NRS is only working on the new gen versions and old gen consoles are outsourced

One of the most epic moments at E3. I can't wait for Mortal Kombat X. Might end up getting it for the PS4 for the better fighter pad.
 
IGN Stage presentation, nice fatality for the big guy (and little lady) Ferra/Torr at the end.

That Master/Blaster-like character looks great. MK characters sure have come a long way.

Looks great. Love the environment interactions. Like the fight style variations. I still can not get over the animations. I know hey are not the best we have seen in games, but they are a massive improvement over every other MK ever made.

Yeah the animations are a HUGE improvement over any previous MK game and I'm really liking the darker tone, even the select screen looks awesome when the player is chosen. I love how they added all of the Kombatants talking crap to each other before the fight like they did in injustice, they recorded thousands of lines so they all acknowledge each other directly.

Completely agree. The tone is what really has me hyped. Its like they have come full circle. The orginal MK was pretty serious tone wise, particularly for the time, and as we all know caused a huge controversy with its violence. MK 2, while still dark, started introducing the campy elements to it. After that the campy aspects stuck around through every iteration until the last one. With Mk9 it still had a bit of it, but that had scaled it back significantly and the game was better for it.

Its still early, but I love how dark and violent this one looks. Even the "Finish Him" font has a more sinister look to it. Its going to be hard not reading and looking at every article and piece of media that comes out for this, but I am already sold. Its going to be a long wait.
 
I wish I was good at fighters because they always look like some of the coolest games.
 
X-Rays are still stupid as hell. They should only be able to be used when the target is @ 20% or less health and they should be a kill/k.o.

It just looks so silly to see these characters get a sword through the throat, have it twisted to shatter their neck then have their face caved in just to have them stand up and say...

 
MK9 was one of my favorite games last gen
This. By a long shot! I became obsessed with that game as the release date drew closer and closer. I couldn't believe it when I played it and it actually lived up to my expectations. I don't know what changed, but Neatherrealm took things to a completely whole new level with MK9.

So that announcement trailer for MKX can't be representative of actual gameplay can it? I mean, holy f***ing s*** if it is.:crazy:
 
There is a handful of gameplay videos from E3, the game is pretty close to that announcement trailer. Obviously not 1:1, but the animation is impressively smooth.
 
Found em. Looks VERY good. I had just stumbled across the announcement trailer when I got home, and came straight here before I saw those.

I had no idea this was even existed until 30 minutes ago. When I first saw the MKX logo I squealed like a little girl and nearly started dancing around the room. :grin:
 
I'm just glad my two favorites are back, Raiden and Sub Zero are the characters I use the most.


Not much of a Mortal Kombat game if those characters are not in it. Raiden, Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Gorro, Lui Kang, Princess Katana, Shang Sung, Jhonny Cage, Kano, and Sony Blade, are absolute musts for a MK game.
