Niiiiiiice
I bought PS+ last week just for the demo. Does that make me obsessed? :sad:
Time to hop on this.
Downloading the Doudecim demo first. Then I'll get MK9 demo. Going to be a long night.
WOW that Goro xRAY is more like a brutality lol . I doubt anyone could stand up after that X Ray move lol. I mean that character spine and crane got destroyed
Wow, been almost an hour and at 70 percent.
Those fatalities were fucking awesome.
Oh, and you guys are going to love the trailer after Ladder Mode.

I saw. I came. I came again.

This game is going to be pretty much perfect. I only saw one thing wrong with it and it was a minor glitch with Scorpian's hook thing.
Is the demo ready to be downloaded for NON plus members? or is it still a PSN PLus exclusive?
No, it's available for everyone now :happy: .
Yay i shall get ready to download it XD thanks.
Is it me or does Johnny Cage look like Topher Grace during the vs. screen?
Still waiting on the demo to download.
In other news…

You should see a few seconds after that happens.

I've seen it. Just don't want to spoil it for other people. Thanks though. :D
Although, I may be the only Stryker fan here…..or maybe ever.... I absolutely adore his design. Lightyears better than his piece of shit Armageddon one, and they made him just as masculine as anyone else on this game.
I'm a happy camper.
After spending some time with the demo, I have the utmost confidence in this game. I remember how Street Fighter 4 felt when it first hit. I felt like just like I was playing an evolved version of the Street Fighter II, but fine tuned to not only fit in this decade, but lenient enough to let new players enter the game and grow without any intimidation.
If this demo is any indication, Mortal Kombat is going through the exact same process. Everything feels like its evolved from MKII and III but manages to iron and refine out the bullshit that was bringing the series down.
The Violence? Proudly wearing the "M" rating that belongs to it. Buckets o'blood everywhere and even more enjoyable on an actual HDTV.
The Fighting? It has that combination of modern fluidity and still balances it with a little bit of the stiffness that worked in games like SFII and IV. It even includes those conventions of EX Meter and whatnot, letting you do "powered up" of special attacks. And the X-Ray moves are ballin! Speaking of which, the combos can easily be strung together to in conjunction with special moves, none of that arbitrary "dial a combo" shit, theres honest to God logic to these moves.
The Controls? Similar, but different. The logic of this game follows "Front Punch, Back Punch" depending on your "Stance" which can be switched up with a button press. I haven't really seen how that can be implemented, but I guess its used when it comes to mixing up and stuff. Its just a little footnote though, the controls feel really good, and it seems to have that same leniency that SFIV had has far as executing special moves go. Speaking of leniency…
The Fatalities? Beautiful and bloody as ever. They still have those really wacky inputs (forward up up square for Scorpion's stage fatality for instance) but its much more forgiving with how fast you punch it in you you actually have time to set it up.
All in all, I've got the feeling this game is going to be fun as hell, will be popular as hell and I'm even more hyped to get my hands on this reboot.
Man, Midway tanking was probably the best thing to ever happen to this franchise.

Huge Stryker fan here; used to rock him for umk3.
But the elbow pads have got to go.
Just played the demo. OH MY GOD! I want this game so bad now. Before playing it, I was like "I could wait a few weeks." I don't know if I can do that now.
Also, that trailer that plays when you beat Kombat mode on the demo. That needs to be uploaded onto YouTube, because I need to watch that trailer about fifty times in a row as soon as I can. NAMELY THE FINAL BIT!
OOOOOH, I am so excited for this game now. I feel like I'm playing UMK3, like I was in elementary school.
Reason: Oh yeah…I can't believe I'm saying this but...Stryker....actually.....looks....kind of...cool...
:happy:
I'll admit he's never been that cool looking of a guy, and this is the best he's ever looked.

Good to hear.
But I kind of like the elbow pads. And I'm sure he'll have another costume.

Definitely seems worth spending time on.
Ah! My first non-effeminate or non-sexual deviant avatar.
Dormammu is a sexual deviant, fyi.
Here you go comrade.

Thank you kindly.
I fucking love the demo.
At first I was like….
Me: "I forgot how to play mortal Kombat"
Friend1: "I dunno about this man..."
Me: checks move list "Ohhhhh ok i'm good"
Friend2: "I wanna see a fatality"
Me: tries fatality and fails. Checks move list "Ohhhh i gotta be at sweep distance.. forgot that shit" Performs fatality Performs other fatality performs stage fatality "Cool beans!"
Hater-Friend: Spews irrational hate about game changing too many things. Then contradicts himself by saying that it's re-hash. Then says it lacks punch?? I tune him out.... one less person to pass the controller. lol
Me and friend1: Start learning combos and have a great time, while hater friend is forced to watch. Friend2 falls asleep, but he always does that
Me: loved demo and cannot fucking wait for full release
I didn't even know Kano was in the game O_o.
also: LAVA FACE!!!!
How do you do Mileena's fatality? It says jump in the side note.
Seriously…if I could sum up this game into ONE song...
pDxoj-tDDIU
Oh God….Mortal Kombat! I've missed you so much! :cwy:
Me: loved demo and cannot fucking wait for full release
Kill that annoying friend of yours. Sounds like several people I know.
Also, I'm generally Friend #2 when it comes to games or movies I'm not interested in.

Forgive me for this, but…

Talking shit about Celine Dion?
Now I won't give you any of my pot pie, or tell you how to perform Mileena's fatality.
It's back, foward, back, foward, bpunch.
Still not giving him my pot pie.
Sarus, you can have some, of course.
It's chicken.
On-Topic: I'm curious what DLC characters will make the roster. Obviously Rain, but beyond him, and I don't what character from the 'MK4 and later' era.
All I know is that Shinnok can drown in a sea of dicks, and Tanya can suffer a worse fate.

It's jump distance as opposed to while jumping. Stand next to them then jump backwards, that's pretty much the distance.
I was trying to do the combo while jumping .

I think Boon said those three, Kenshi and Robo Smoke.

FUCK!
Dammit, Boon!
Shinnok's character in itself is not so bad. It's just his apperence doesn't do anything for most people. He just looks like a member of the Blue Man Group in pajamas.
While they're revamping everyone's design, they could take revamping Shinnok for a whirl.

Thanks for playing Mortal Kombat 4.
Oh, Lawd. MK4 Endings are unintentionally hilarious.

Jax had the best one by far.

He killed Sareena, and replaced both Shang Tsueng and Shao Kahn. He's pretty low on my book.
Quan Chi, at least, comes off being bad ass, and having major connections toward both Sub-Zero and Scorpion…
! Quan Chi killed Scorpion's family, not Sub-Zero or Noob Saibot. Also, Quan Chi and original Sub-Zero/Noob Saibot bitterly hated each other.
Shinnok just comes off as this boring character who has no background beyond, "I just want to fuck things up for everyone". He died in Sub-Zero Mythologies, and should have STAYED DEAD in that game. His existence in MK4 was a mistake.
And Lady Golden Graham (Tanya) is one of the most assholic characters in the existence of forever, and I see no purpose for her beyond eternal butchering. She betrayed Sindel, Katana, Jade, Liu Kang, Shang Tseung, Quan Chi, Shinnok (I think), and Onaga. She has no purpose other than being a supreme bitch, and being the training dummy for training mode in this game.
Either way, either of their existences won't and will never ruin this game for me. I just don't like Shinnok, and loathe Lady Golden Graham with every inch of my body.

Your closest ally, friend, and partner is killed by some Kano wannabe. What a wonderful ending.
As bad as the MK4 endings were, the only one's that were worth time were Scorpion's and Sub-Zero's, because it "ended their rivalry"…...and here we are, with them still hating each other. shrug
Tanya is in someways moreso the female Kano then Kira ever could be, in her idea of betraying anyone to save her skin and getting ahead.
Now, about Shinnok…..
! If the demo hacks are to believed, it seems he will play a part in the sequel, as it seems MK4 is coming

Kira also originated from Sub-Zero: Mythologies, so she has little to no backstory to her. I have no idea WHY they brought her back. At least Sareena, Shinnok, and Quan Chi all had reasons. Hell, I could even understand Fujin. Kira's just bland, though I don't mind her existence. Kobra is far more bland, to me.
But yeah, Tanya is just pure evil.

She's the very definition of a backstabbing snake.
Also, at that last part:
! So…wait. MK9 is supposed to be prequel to MK4?

Jax in MK4 looks like the Old Spice Black Guy.

No, that's Kia. Kira is the redhead from Deception.
And
! It's not really a remake, moreso a trip back in time. So, if MK9 is a revised MK1-3 then MK10 will be a revised MK4.

Oh shit. You're right! So I guess Sareena IS the only one of the three demon girls brought back from Mythologies. …..So then what IS Kira's purpose?
Whatever.
! Well that explains a lot.
! If they DO do a sequel, I don't know how they'll manage, cause they will most likely remove characters, and that won't go well.
Forgive me for this, but…

^I don't know if anyone has seen these, but they are remotely new (came out 1st of March) and actually pretty good. WATCH THEM IN ORDER.
I can tell the people/person who made this are way too big fans of Stryker. Especially in the Shao Kahn scene, which not even I, would put Stryker on such a pedestal. Shao Kahn's scene will piss Sarus off.
I love Stryker, but no. And the best one is easily Liu Kang's, namely Take 3.
