Any comparisons between the 360 v. PS3? Leaning towards the 360 right now since I have a stick for it already from SF4.

Is Kratos available from the very beginning?

Im not even half way the story mode, and for the few Ive got to mess with, my favorite aside from Scorpion which I played the hell out of it in the demo is, Ermac and Kabal. Looking foward to use Cyrax and SektorSquall ASF said:Thank you to the two guys that commented on the 360 controllers, I'll have to look into them. Probably will fork over for the official one since it looks sexy and I'm not a SF guy
Keep the impressions coming guys! For us poor saps that are stuck at work! I'm about to pick mine up while out at lunch but will have to late until tonight to play :|
For those of you that have played a bunch of characters, which one's do you find the best so far?

I'm guessing theres some green screen or similar single color background mode/stage in the game that allows easy keying out the background.MonkeyKnuckle said:
cos they sure as hell didn't rotoscope all that by hand.

Sektor is amazing for setting up combos, which isn't a surprise at all.

only a advertisement revenue screenshot comparison so far on LOT - 360 wins so far. I'll wait for the digital foundry review, cos I can wait. I'm not mad hyped for this game.henhowc said:

Gotta say, I am glad i bought the collectors edition! The bookends are awesome and worth it by themselves. The art book was ok, i thought it would be a bit bigger but i was slightly sad that it wasnt nearly as awesome as the starcraft/warcraft art books. Also, Old school Ermac is awesome looking!

Story mode is pretty good (im only to the scorpion chapter though) for a fighting game but when you compare that too Street Fighters or MvC's story mode then I guess anything is better by comparison only because it's not bare bones.
Still Im enjoying MK's story mode a lot though.
By the way, it would be better if people start talking/reporting about any problems /happenings at the Online Thread. General impressions, lag, etc.
That way, I can update that OP with updates regarding problems, patches ,etc. So that can others can see about any possible problems and updates.
When reporting problems also post your region and time, just in case.

Are the classic costumes like SSF4 where you can see other players with the costumes online even if you don't have them yourself?

Been asking myself the same question...
I think I'll link my PS3 Portal first, then pop in MK while the PC version downloads.

I figured I'd go with MK first since I could run though arcade mode once and then move on to Portal 2 knowing once I started Portal I'd end up playing that for hours.
Ended up spending over 2 hours with MK before I even realized it and haven't even touched P2 yet.

I still haven't touched Portal 2. Finished 3 Chapters of Story mode (like I said before, BAD ASS so far). Watching the Giantbomb Live stream of SOCOM/Portal2/MK that just started up now: http://www.giantbomb.com/chat/

So far my favorite X Ray move has to be Sektor's which is hilariously awesome.

According to the shots here, PS3 version looks remarkably better, which many believe is due to it being the lead SKU between consoles; and this doesn't include all the extra Steam stuff included (if that means anything to ya'): http://www.lensoftruth.com/head2head/head2head-portal-2-screenshot-comparison/
Just posted this in the Portal thread, sorry for the deja vu:
Hey Gaf, I dunno if this has been brought up before, I'm trying not to read anything until I play the game, but...
A friend and I just went to Kmart to try to do the $120 = $60 Game Coupon deal.
Well, I can't say it's false advertising, but it's definitely frustrating, and you guys should know before you go in; Portal 2 and Mortal Kombat only came out to $119.98, and we weren't given the coupon.
I dunno if adding the PSN card would've helped (as in, if it counts as gaming software), we couldn't try until she rang it up (and charged) again.
So, how did that Toys R Us deal pan out? I still need to buy my copies.

Wired yeah always better and recommended, but it's a weird problem.sleepykyo said:
I remember with Resistance 2 it was the recommendation; so I decided to apply it to this game since it wasn't even accepting the invites from my friend. And it worked. The router is close to the unit, which is why I have it wired in the first place. Guess I'll leave it wireless for the time being.
For Resistance 2 there was no update ever, because it wasn't an actual problem they said they could fix.. more like a mix of router and IPs and other misc. things. So I guess the same applies to this case.

Found a nifty iPhone app (based on the Kamidogu MK fansite) while looking for MK related stuff in the app store:
http://itunes.apple.com/au/app/kamidogu/id404421060?mt=8
Hopefully they update move lists and information for the retail release soon. So far its just MK9 demo characters and older MK games.

For those waiting for the game from Amazon:
Got confirmation that both the PS3 and 360 copies I ordered from Amazon have been delivered. The PS3 version was not ordered with release-date shipping, but despite 1-day shipping being listed as having a 4/21 delivery date, it looks like it may have arrived before the 360 version did! They e-mailed me the codes for classic Reptile last night.

I am too sitting here at work waiting for my shift to be over so I can go home and play
Perfectly I guess. My friend got MK and Portal 2 from them and the $50 gift card.distrbnce said:
He said it's actually better, since because of the gift card, the games appear as $35 each. So he thinks it could be "exploited" by returning one of the games, get the $35 back and stay with the $50 gift card; or something like that.
He won't do it, since he wants both games; but wouldn't be surprised if others do.
I am absolutely Livid I bought the KE at bestbuy and in the flyer it says get a sub zero code with the regular and kollectors edition, it should be in the case but when I opened it up nothing
It didn't have it so I went back into the store and was told nothing they can do even though the flyer says specifically the KE will have it.
I even talked to a supervisor and was told the same thing, that's just frustrating beyond belief.

I went to my local TRU this morning and had no problems with the deal. My buddy and I were the only people there when they opened at 9 (I was there about 15 minutes early, just misjudging my morning commute really). I was only planning to get MK today, but this deal was too good to pass up.

In the past Toys R Us won't let you return one of the games without also returning the gift card.
The KE were never supposed to have the code, they said so multiple times online and even the site specified it (that the bonus was only for the regular edition).Lothars said:
Shoppers around here make no mention of the retro-costumes, but if yours said it included the retro in both, take the shopper and try to convince the manager to exchange the game (only) with one of the regular copies; and/or contact/phone support in the same store.

Err...why are you linking to Portal 2 screenshots. And steam? Did you accidentally pop into the wrong thread? LOL
distrbnce said:
Yeah, you need to buy the 20 dollar PSN/XBLA card to get over 120. I've read a report of people actually getting the PSN card for free when they buy both (since both Mortal Kombat and Portal 2 give 10 dollars off a 20 dollar points card).
Personally I ended up buying Portal 2, Crysis 2 (40 dollars this week) and 2 20 dollar PSN cards.
