6.5, honestly. There are parts of it that are really cool, like some of the special moves (sub zero, etc) but honestly the fighting mechanics are so bad and literally have next to no thought to them at all. The whole system is so poorly made. The game in general feels like some no name developer game that you'd find for $8.99 in the checkout aisle at Wal-Mart. I thought it was going to suck, but I can't believe just how much it sucks.
It's still fun to check out and everything, but buying this game would be an awful idea.
True. But if you hit start to select your character in arcade mode, you get his 2nd color (they do them almost exactly the same way from MKII)Apparently this is the first 3D fighter in about ten years not to have alternate costumes
Who needs alternative costumes when you have alternative universes?Apparently this is the first 3D fighter in about ten years not to have alternate costumes
I did catch that... although some of the colors are reeeeeaaaally close. I guess between the IPs they were working with and the clothing damage alts just weren't worth the trouble.True.

But this game isnt canon, so it doesnt justify that, neither through this game or that POS movie.Also OMG Raiden's bio says that Shao Kahn is his brother. Mortal Kombat Annihilation is canon!
lol...Tekken is crap.MK will never be on par with the Tekken's and Street Fighter's of the industry. Oh well. Enjoy it for the novelty it is.
It's very fun so far, but as far as balance goes...I give it a 4 or 5 haha. So many broken abilities just like the last few MK games. It can be pretty hard to get off combos online too, maybe it's lag and you just can't tell the lag is there.[/COLOR]

i agree sushi. seems very button masher-ish. never been a fan of those types of games. i agree with you guys on the flash though, very fun character to use. his combos and set ups are pretty cool. i may feel differently about the fighting mechanics as i get better at the game. that's usually when games start taking shape and the button mashers get weeded out. it's still very early for this game...im sure they'll update it with new contents later on ..
the fighting system just doesnt feel right to me. i mean .. anyone who can mash buttons all day long can win. its seem broken and what not..
i've give it a 7.5...
