How can a game be “award-winning” when it’s not even out yet?
o_O
pretty sure they just mean the series as a whole. what i want to know is whats up with that button layout
You’ve never seen MK in the arcades?
there haven’t been any arcade cabinets where i live since i was a kid :/ i really don’t remember… but mk arcade layout was like that?
Yep that’s the classic layout.
The game won awards at E3 last year.
MarkMan I know your gonna get the arcade stick. probably like 20 of them the arcade stick freak lmao jk but if you do get how getting a secong one an giving it to me for free
ment to put sencond not secong
shadowxd it must be really though when you feel rejected cuz your an asshole, no what u really meant is pretend to be some one else cuz your fucking sick , it makes pissed off to see people happy cuz ur mentally sick, u retard
Markman i kno9w your joking by saying Mk won awards.
anyway anyone here know about DEUS EX HUMAN REVOLUTION, new game worked on by Square ENIX : dont mean to be off topic, but i have got to spread the Word to everyone , this game is going to be the shit. no joke
SQUARE ENIX MEANS BUISNESS
YEAH BLINDGOHST I SEEN THIS IT LOOKS REALLY GREAT AND PROMISING THIS PLUS MARVEL VS CAPCOM3 ARE GOING TO BE VERY INTERESTING GAMES
Aah..Suzo Happ..
I’m not too familiar with these parts..but I hope they last long, and as good as the ones used in the 90’s.
I hope the game is bad ass, as in a REAL fighting game this time around. As for the button layout it is: Run (bottom left), High Punch, Low Punch, Block (in the middle of the attack buttons), High Kick, Low Kick. Damn nubbs.
its “tag”button , not “run”. There are only dashes in this MK, and tons of teleports

“…and If you don’t know, Now you know”
this is the first mortal kombat I’ve been hyped up for, for ages! Do you have any idea how much it’s gonna cost?
I could care less about Mortal Kombat. If I want gore, I play a shooter.
Wrong board little sister
Listen to the mkast and you can see they are taking the right approach. They talk in depth about balancing the game, damage scaling, combos/fight engine, and how their goal is to make it a legitimate tournament fighter that can stand alongside the other big games at tournaments like Evolution.
Great job on the stick Mark. It’s full of nostalgia, and 100% win. See you at CES?…will the new MK stick (and game?) be at your madcatz booth in the Hilton?
I just hope the game turns out great, and don’t always go by what the critics say…TvC over T6 as best game ’09, WTFrack?
Zamba, the stick is made by PDP aka Pelican, not Mad Catz.
But yes, I’ll be at CES! See you there!
total gonna play MK9….not sure if i’ll get stick tho…
Awesome! Looks like 15th anniversary edition ST stick.
