PS3 or Xbox?

Xbox. Sorry, should have mentioned that.

 

[LightofRohan]

Erg. Fine I did it! Gah!

Tombrady is dirty with sub. It looks like too much work to get good with sub but i'm intrigued

Sub Zero is a beast. He has 6-hit combos that take off a third of your health. Add in X-ray moves and it gets close to 50. And none of those combos are particularly hard to pull off.

Never really followed the MK tourney scene, but I'm a lifelong MK fan. Why does everyone have to call Tom Brady by his full name!? It keeps making me think the Patriot's QB is playing and it's annoying!

Edit: It could just be his tag but it's a strange and annoying one to use.

 

[Neuromancer]

Is the Brawl Pad for that WWE game the same exact thing as the SS4 fight pad? I'm here at Gamestop considering buying it if that's the case. Thanks!

It's the same Tom Brady.

 

[infinityBCRT]

Oh shit, Riu48 barely took that round against Sabin. And went on to win the match.

 

[Papercuts]

Nut punching reptile's x-ray was hilarious.

 

[scoobs]

Johnny's x-ray sucks its so hard to pull off and if you're playing anyone that knows the character they'll never fall for it. Luckily johnnys fucking amazing otherwise to make up for it

 

[infinityBCRT]

REO is absolutely destroying Floe's Ermac with Cyber Sub-Zero.

And Floe comes back in the second match and barely beats REO after adapting to Cyber Sub. Looks like he has a good handle on it now.

 

[BigAT]

Do the controls in this map relatively well to an SF4 SE Fight Stick?

 

[Chamber]

Shao Kahn, you a real bitch.

I'm thinking about switching to a controller for this game. Every stick layout feels awkward to me.

It frees up the bar so you can pull off more EX moves and Breakers with him.

 

[BlueSummers]

Oh shit, I had no idea! Not only is he rich and famous but also has a sick Sub. Nice..

ya this is true.

 

[derFeef]

Jesus this guy is killing it with CSub Zero

 

[TrAcEr_x90]

I looove watching these streams!!! i watched it twice last night! Mortal Kombat is just so fun to play and watch.

 

[scoobs]

Its super fun to watch, i wish i could pull off some of these combos and have the state of mind to react like these guys do. I'm still pretty new so I mess up my combos when the pressure is on just about every single time

I think half of it is just muscle memory. I'm slowly getting better with Cage, if only because I can stop thinking too much and worry more about landing combos than actually putting them in. Granted, I'm not very good, but I can see some progress.

 

[TrAcEr_x90]

i really wanted to see tom bradys sub zero win this.

 

[infinityBCRT]

brady's gonna need to rethink his use of ice clones.

 

[scoobs]

brady looks flustered, i could see him losing this matchup. He got rocked

 

[Tokubetsu]

One of the best talents/skills to have when it comes to fighting games I think is the ability to adapt and change your game up on the fly if things aren't working out.

 

[h3ro]

Just ordered my copy off of Amazon.

I enjoyed the demo and watching tourney play today settled it for me. The game looks fun and like a nice change of pace from Marvel and Super.

Looking forward to playing.

Also:

 

[infinityBCRT]

wow, they've got 10k viewers right now for MK.

 

[beast786]

I will get my copy on may 4th.


Just by watching. There is NO Run ?

Nope, only dashing.

Nope, just dashing forward and back.

 

[beast786]

Nope, only dashing.

Thanks.

With Run/Grab, Clone. Subzero can be as aggressive as you want. Thanks again.

 

[mr. puppy]

well of course they're supporting it, the game devlopers are throwing a 21k tourney

 

[scoobs]

wow, they've got 10k viewers right now for MK.

MK is exciting to alota people cuz its new and lets be honest... the gameplay is just fun as hell to watch and play.

 

[Shakala]

He doesn't look like tom brady to me. Why?

 

[derFeef]

Same, love his sub zero.

 

[Tokubetsu]

Love the blood fountain at the bottom pit stage.

 

[Kweh]

that Kung Lao vs Cage match was great.

 

[infinityBCRT]

According to Tim Static, NRS knows about the Xbox version not saving the updated move property data and are probably working on it.

 

[Xater]

Oh man that grand final was fucking great. MK is actually really fun to watch. I love the game in pretty much every regard.

 

[piratepwnsninja]

Ordered from Amazon. I cannot deny myself MK any longer.

 

[Yuripaw]

I don't quite understand all this "Kitana is ugly" talk. I think she looks pretty friggin hot in this game tbh.

I think they're talking about her

Spoiler

[Gowans]

Finished and loved the story mode.

Best fighter of this gen. Tho I had to resort to major cheapness for the last boss.

With jax i just shot projectiles over and over and when the boss got closer i jump backed and threw more shit haha

I hate fighting game bosses so i'll do what it takes to get them over with using the least amount of effort.

 

[TrAcEr_x90]

whats the link to rewatch the tourney? i had to leave half way through it.?

i lamed like the whole game after realizing spamming projectiles makes for free wins lol

 

[luffeN]

Does anyone have the MK dragon, either a black and white version or the new one from MK9 in 6 MP quality? Google didn't have anything

 

[Houston3000]

Holy shit this game is packed with content. I just got a trophy for "Half Way There"

Spoiler

right after the first fight as Kitana

. Could of sworn there wasn't that much more.

Love this game so much and I'm not even a huge fighting game fan in general.
