      Re: Mortal Kombat

      Hey hey, I'd just like to say, I use scorpion online and know his basic moves and some kombos with him so please don't assume everyone who uses him online is some cheap artist, I just like scorpion.

      Also, I have a problem, my girl and I like to play cooperative tag mode together vs. the CPU. However she keeps tagging out and tagging me in. She SWEARS she isn't hitting L1 though. Is there any other way she could be mistakenly tagging me in? She's very frustrated about it and I'm afraid she's going to stop playing with me.

        I have found that some button combination does tag in as well, because I do it on accident some times.

            Hey guys, I just bought the DLC and am in my first fight. I'm using scorpions new throwback costume, which is cool but I go to the moves list to see his old school fatality and it still says locked...WTF. How do I unlock the new fatalities?

              You have to actually do them.

                Check each characters move list. They all have fast tags or tag in combos.

                  Yeah the klassic fatalities are like the stage fatalities/babalities.

                  You have to perform them once, and then it unlocks the button commands in the move list menu.

                  I am really annoyed by Sub Zero's klassic kostume being the wrong shade of blue. It should be "cyan," not plain blue like it is.

                      I realize I painted a broad stroke with my Scorpion comments, no offense was intended. I know the things that I ranted on are unlikely for OS people but they are really the exception and the rest of the world is the rule.

                      This would be cool, if we could make a OS room and not have it open to just anyone that would be good.

                      I've heard this "patience is a virtue" junk all my life. I'm happy to say I have no virtue, no scruples, and no desire to wait too long for anything. In my humble opinion instant gratification takes too long!

                        WWE Brawl pad finally arrived today! Unfortunately, the seller gave me the fugly Rock/HHH pad instead of the awesome Hogan/Cena one. Hopefully the pad itself makes up for it! Time to put this bad boy through some Super Street Fighter II HD, Marvel vs. Capcom 2, and Mortal Kombat.

                              Re: Mortal Kombat

                              Quick impressions of the WWE Brawl Pad and how it works with a few games:

                              Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD -- 6/10

                              Diagonals are real spotty. Half-circle motions rarely register. Quarter-circles and dragon punch motions are a little better, but still not great. Definitely don't get this pad if you're expecting to play old school Street Fighter with it. You will be whiffing special moves all over the place.

                              Marvel vs. Capcom 2 -- 7/10

                              The WWE Brawl pad works better here than with Street Fighter because the Marvel vs. Capcom series is a lot less strict about inputs registering. It also helps that you only have to use the four main buttons and occasionally the top triggers to call in assists and team super moves.

                              Mortal Kombat -- 8/10

                              The great thing about Mortal Kombat is that there are no diagonal commands in the special moves! This means you will be pulling all your moves reliably! Dashing is also accurate, which helps a ton with combos.

                              My only complaint is that throws are a lot harder because the LB/RB buttons aren't conveniently placed. Also, blocking is not as easy thanks to the awkward positioning and feel of the shoulder buttons (LT/RT).

                              However, being able to dash, combo, and enter special moves reliably is definitely worth the trade-off of trickier throwing/blocking.

                              Overall Rating-- 7/10

                              WWE Brawl Pad is a great, inexpensive option for improving your Mortal Kombat experience. I definitely recommend picking one up for $10 - $20 if you're Mortal Kombat fan and a tournament-quality arcade stick is out of your price range. I have already gone from being a sub-.500 player in MK ranked matches to winning two-thirds of my matches, all because my dashes, special moves, and combos are finally registering with consistency!

                              However, for fighting games that require a lot of diagonal inputs, you will feel disappointed, because the WWE Brawl Pad does not pick up those motions well.

                              Fighting games with 4 main buttons are also easier to play than games that use 6 face buttons, because the RB/LB buttons on the WWE Brawl Pad are placed too far away from the main XYAB buttons and slant down at an odd angle.

                              The shoulder buttons (LT/RT) also feel like they are placed too close up to the top edge, making it a bit awkward and uncomfortable for fighters that require you to use LT/RT frequently.

                              Recommendation:

                              Get this pad for Mortal Kombat only, and don't pay more than $20 for it. In Mortal Kombat, it's a huge improvement over the stock Xbox 360 controller, but still not enough to make the WWE Brawl Pad worth spending $30 or more.

                                If it was just a normal costume in the game I wouldn't mind the color being off, but since it's a costume that we have to pay extra for, and it's called "MK1 Classic Costume," the least the could do is get the color right.

                                MK1 Sub Zero is supposed to be "cyan" blue, not "royal" blue.
