[Multiplatform] Mortal Kombat Armageddon, for all five MK fans

Haven't played online yet, but Shao Khan's Shoulder Tackle = teh br0k3n!

How ya doing, buddy?

i feel as low as possible to even call myself a fan...i havent gotten it yet...man im broke!

Most amazing jew boots

I actually think a big highlight for this game is the Konquest mode...now if only they put that much dedication into the game itself...like you know, an actual ending

FELIPE NO

I stopped playing MK when they went 3D. Call me old fashioned but 2D>3D. Now MK is more like a cheap cartoon. When it was 2D, it was more detailed and the characters looked realistic.

When it comes to fighting games, I agree completely.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I just played this game at a friend's place, and it is actually surprisingly fun.

I haven't played much of the other games, Decepetion and Deadly Alliance, but this game was really fun. It actually did bring back some fun memories of the older games. Any character you remember from before is back, and everything is still really cheesy and fairly light hearted.

The gameplay mechanics aren't amazing, but you can do some neat tricks like parrying moves and interrupting combos, which are fun to play around with. I also really enjoy the new "create your own" fatality system. It's up to you whether you want to rip their arms, decapitate them, or just kick them in the coinpurse. Other fun goodies like interactive environments just add to the overall hilarity.

I don't know if I'd buy the game, but as a sort of party game, it's really fun. Characters are easy to pick up, and the game has tons of entertainment value.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'm willing to play online (PS2). The name's tzbgwrm. Hope to see some people online.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I've practically messed around with all the characters who were in Deadly Alliance, & Deception because I wanted to do a comparison to see if they handled the transition from 2 fight styles & a weapon style to just one fighting style and the weapon style and I have to say a majority of them handled it well. Some retain their power & dominance they had in the previous games and some go beyond and improved from what they were previously. Shujinko, and a majority of the Deception characters handled it well, and some of the characters who are making their 'debut' on the current engine who never appeared in Deception or Deadly Alliance, really handled the transition better than I expected. Bottom line, this game has the characters handling the changes in a really good way.

The new specials for all the characters are awesome. Sub-Zero's new special (the one where he has a rising pillar of cold coming out of the ground) is awesome and useful for air combat if you can get to your opponent in time and execute an air combo. Scorpion's new throw is just awesome. It's his best throw he's had in my opinon. I personally believe that Scorpion's more versatile this time around.

Some of the new characters that are being introduced to the series (there's only 3 anyway) and out of all of them, I find Meat to be the humorous one out there. His teleport special is just plain funny. It's something to laugh at.:biggrin:

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I think I just realized they're missing a character--Li Mu Bai, the armored chick that can chain crazy comboes with her front flip kicks.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I've played alot of Mortal Kombat and I do NOT remember any special guest appearances by Chow Yun-Fat or anyone from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Whoops, got it mixed up for some reason. I was talking about Li Mei: I don't remember seeing her in the roster

MK: D roster

FELIPE NO

Shes there, shes the pirate looking chick

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

you guys here about rockstar getting permission for sonia and one more mk character to cameo in the next GTA? Also im a post my created character soon. It is my version of the female khameleon who should have shown up if meat did. Hell she should have shown up over meat since she was actualy a character and meat was...something else.

You would of thought that Ed Boon would of realized that everybody just plays as Sub-Zero and nothing else. I think it's characters like Sheeva, Kabal and Kano that really dampen the MK experience.

That and the fact that the artificial intelligence basically knew your every move.

I never used "MK" for Mario Kart, either. If anything, Mortal Kombat is more known for it with the use of it in 2. Whenever I see MKDS, instantly Mortal Kombat comes to mind.

i was just readin through the thread (dont really know why.) and i found someone dissing Kabal. I will have to say that you are obviously not an mk fan with that ignorant subzero claim and kabal diss. Kabal kicks ass, i mean you could have taken a shot at nightwolf or the most unpopular character stryker, but you know you just have to hit kabal. he's cool man leave him be.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Kabal is the only character to literally rip his face off as a fatality...how can you be any cooler?

I thought Havik did that in Deception for his Hara Kiri?:eyebrow:

Hara Kiri, to me, isn't a fatality...but havik ripped his head off if i remember right

harakiri isnt a fatality if you wanna get technical. A fatality is when you kill someone else and a harakiri is when you kill yourself before they kill you. Syndels was friggin LMAO HAHAAAA
hopefully oneday they bring them back. I think it would also be cool to bring back animality!
I think what slash was refering to was the mk3 fatality. He didn't ripp his face of exactly. he took his mask off and scared you with his face under the mask to where your very soul ran away from your body lol good times.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Could you really consider that thing a face?

How ya doing, buddy?

I am waiting for MK:A like..like..well, I am waiting, anyway for myself, MK4 was a major letdown but otherwise, the MK series rocks (meaning Mortal Kombat, not that there's something bad about Mario Kart ). what is it now, 2 weeks till release out here..?

FELIPE NO

About the KAK my only bad bit is the fact that you can only create one and that all weapons are not available. (Like Cyrax's and Sektor's Pulse Blades). I wanted to create Darth Vader!

Also I've unlocked just about all of the arenas, but they keep making me play the same levels over and over again. The Sky Temple often shows up, but the Nethership and Hell's Foundry only showed up once or twice. So far I haven't even played in the Falling Cliffs arena. Is this happening to anyone else? I'm really getting tired of playing the same levels.

Most amazing jew boots

I heard you were able to unlock 3 KAK slots once you complete Konquest Mode.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

You can have more then 1 KAK. You just have to make more profiles, you get 1 per profile.

How ya doing, buddy?

Okay now this really bothers me. The lineup of opponents in Arcade mode is not random. Its the same exact characters, in the same exact arenas, in the same exact order ALMOST EVERY SINGLE TIME!!! If I have to fight Jarek in the Bell Tower, followed by Rain in Kahn's Arena, followed by Reiko on the Falling Cliffs, followed by Kintaro in the Tekunin Prison one more time - I'm gonna go nuts. With so many characters and arenas to choose from, why are they restricting us to this same damn lineup nearly every time we play the game?

I'm not getting that line up. I have yet to fight kintaro or Jarek for that matter
