I could just be glorifying it because MK:Trilogy was one of the first games I owned on the original Playstation, but what sort of bugs does it have? I played the heck out of Trilogy as well and, right or wrong, remember nothing but good.

Which I suppose is good for me if in fact I was able to overlook its flaws, and I was but a young'n when it came out, but since I'm not likely to go back and play it anytime soon I pose the question.

I'm a huge perfectionist to an extent and was extremely amped for MKT. When it was released, they completely butchered the animation lengths, blood and overall smoothness that was in MKII. The example I always use was Baraka's finishing move. When it was first introduced in MKII, every single person on the roster had a unique dying animation when being stabbed. They all spazzed out for a few seconds then slid down his knives. In Trilogy, all the "new" characters and MK3 specific characters had a certain animation frame that was used instead of a specific animation created for them.

It's like me taking a movie and putting in a still picture in the movie. You understand what I'm trying to portray, it's just very shoddily done.

I have it on my PSP (hack) so maybe one day I'll break it out and take video as an example.

The game used to freeze pretty often as well. Initially I thought it was my system but lo and behold, not only was it on the message boards at the time, my digital copy froze on me on the PSP while doing a finisher with one of the newer people... I think it was Jade on Rain.

Just an overall disappointment after the excellence that was MK2. MK3 was received as kind of "ehh" but then UMK3 was much better and what MK3 should have been. They knew it too - no other MK game had an "extension" like UMK3.

I won't lie, I have had an obsession with MK4 since its release. I thought the way you had to unlock characters and outfits was incredible at the time.

THESE. MKII will always be the best game, unless this new one beats it.

Re: Mortal Kombat

Anyone know the 360 demo release date? I can't wait any longer.

Still nothing. Rumored next week, but unfortunately it's just a rumor and therefore could just as easily be wrong. I've played the demo on my PS3 though, and I can comfortably say this game is MK2 on steroids.

Agreed. I am so buying it!

Re: Mortal Kombat

I'm extremely hyped for this one !!!!

As far as no demo for Xbox, I don't understand what the issue is/was getting it uploaded, but someone sure dropped the ball on that one. I'm surprised warner bros let it happen at all. Seems like they would have made sure that both consoles had access to it at the same time...

Actually, Sony had made a deal with Netherrealm Studios a looong time ago, and Microsoft didn't. It wouldn't surprise me if there was a clause that stipulated that they got more marketing for the game, including the demo. It's not a bash on either, and it's not some sort of conspiracy theory. Fact is, MK has been pushed incredibly hard on PS3 in terms of incentives and exclusives... and rediculously lukewarm on 360. I have both, but opted for 360 as I want nothing to do with Kratos.

Re: Mortal Kombat

Oh but the horrible horrible D-pad for fighters on the 360 controller!

Thanks for that info...

I never got into the God of War games so I'm looking forward to finally getting a chance to check out Kratos. I'm sure he will have some brutal moves and fatality's

Crap, I completely forgot about that.

Anyone have any impressions of the 360 controller with the twisty D-Pad? How is the dpad on that when it's locked in? For those who don't recall, it looks kinda like this:
