For Those Who Pre-Ordered MKX Through PSN

I was planning on digital too but one question. Do I have to pay the full $60 right now to pre-order with PSN?

I've got a question.

If I get the game 5 days early am I allowed to reveal the full roster with a screenshot or info on here if it isn't known yet? Or would that get me banned or something?

Street Dates are non existent here.

I dunno lol. I don't know if it's one of those "rules" things where you aren't supposed to actually be the person leaking anything lol.

In that case, if it isn't known by the time I get it I'll post it here. Maybe I can even make the Front Page. :eek:
 
Yeah Sony and GameStop have been releasing pre-load games/big titles at 12am est now so that everyone doesn't have to wait until it's 12am in their respective time zones to play.

Games are always released on midnight Eastern time on the ps4. They started dong this after Destiny was released.

I digitially download all my games and have been able to play everyone of them right at midnight. Some people I play with are on the west coast and play the same time Im playng so every release is at midnight eastern.

I thought about buying digitally, but it's £70 digital, compared to £38 for the exact same game on disc. I don't know why anyone would pay that much. Maybe the prices are better in US, I don't know, but this is a joke.
It includes the Kombat pack though so 4 dlc characters. I don't think we have a price for it individually in the UK but expect around £25. Still cheaper for physical but hey for convenience it's pretty good.

Man all you people tying to play the game a few hours early, go to the local gamestore and ask them to hold a tournament for MKX. Win something out of it instead of playing a game a few hours early.

What is coming to this generation...... To lazy to go to a Hype Midnight release and whoop some ass in your local scene.

When Injustice came out, I got a Free Injustice Gamestop T-shirt, Free Strategy guide (Not that I used it) and a $25 giftcard for gamestop. Also 1st in Line to get the game.

Had to play against @RM I$AAC in MK9 to get it though. So it wasn't free.

Or, you know, we could do whatever the hell we want. This isn't about what you do or what you think we should do. I was just giving people a heads up about this. If you don't agree, that's fine. But keeping your thoughts and accusations (saying we're lazy) to yourself is more than fine as well. Thanks!

And secondly, some people don't have a local scene. Just because there's people at the same store as you for the game doesn't mean they're interested in playing other people. They may just want to play the game.

Do what you want, that's my opinion.

Then people should not complain about there scene sucking because there is nobody to play with. These type of events are how scenes are made.

We are doing what we want and you're calling us lazy for it. How is that you telling us to do what we want...?

Secondly, I went to the midnight release for MK9 and there were like 90 people there. Did a scene get made? Nope. Was getting together and playing offline suggested? Yep.

Some places are better for scenes than others.

From the TYM Rule List #3. Illegal stuff is illegal. This site is based in the United States so certain things cannot be allowed, such as linking to files that are illegal to download. This goes for any kind of files, such as arcade games, console games, MP3s, computer applications, etc. If a link points to this kind of file directly, or if a link points to a site that focuses on these sorts of illegal activites, action may be taken by a mod or admin. Any time a user posts such links he or she can be banned. Mistakes are human and the precise recourse will be decided on a case by case basis. THIS INCLUDES VIDEO GAMES AND THEIR STREET DATES!! If the game isn't officially released yet, keep videos, pictures, stream links and all things related OFF the site!! No excuses, and users who break this rule will be subject to bans & possible legal ramifications from the companies involved. OBEY THE STREET DATE!!

This most likely means that your download of the game will start at 10pm on the 13th. You wont be able to access it until midnight but the download will start early in order to have it preloaded to be ready at midnight. I've preordered games off of psn and I wasn't allowed to play until midnight even though the download started before then.

That would be pretty dumb, especially considering it will likely take more than two hours for some people to download the initial file that lets you play while the rest continues to download. I figured the whole point of pre-loading a game is to have it done well in advance (like a week) of the release day, that way you're not having to worry about servers being overloaded due to everyone and their mother trying to download it at the same time.

But who knows, y'know? We'll have to see, I s'pose.

Ok. I voiced my opinion and you voiced yours. Argument over.

I could be wrong. When I preordered FIFA the download started like 2 days in advance of release. Either way it looks like I might be switching my preorder to digital.

I'm really hoping that maybe they're taking a different approach for this game since it's such a big title, y'know? I'd say MK > FIFA any day of the year. =P
