PS3. The normal 360 controller Is terrible for fighting games because of the D-pad. I find myself rarely playing the 360 anymore. Besides, PS3 Mortal Kombat has Kratos. 360 Mortal Kombat has NOTHING!
I'd say you're nearly halfway through the story. Starts to get pretty good soon I think. Might even play through it again myself to get more Koins for the Krypt. Unlock more fatalities etc.
Only started the challenge tower too, though I've seen what the reward is and it doesn't seem worth it for that, but a challenge is a challenge.
How good is a fighting game when I haven't even really touched Arcade/Ladder mode yet?
Quote: Barrington, Apr 2011Quote: The King Of Limbs, Apr 2011The new Mortal Kombat is f*cking awesome. As a mainly single player focussed gamer the sheer amount of single player content is amazing for a fighting game.
Finished Story Mode yesterday. Absolutely f*cking amazing. Last fight near broke my fingers, controller and leg (when I got frustrated I slapped my leg really hard a few times)
But I agree completely. With games like Street Fighter and Marvel Vs Capcom pretty much only catering to online play and a very basic arcade mode, the amount of single player content in Mortal Kombat is staggering. I spent nearly 3 days on the story mode (well, i was playing Portal 2 at the same time). And the story itself was fantastic. The changes they made, liberties they tool, yet nothing really felt out of place.
Up there with Tekken 3 as one of my favourite fighting games of all time. Only downside is the controller. Trying to press 'Down Up' and ending up either jumping straight up or diagonally caused most of the aforementioned frustration.
I got up to Jax's chapter of the story mode yesterday and now I can't play it again for ages
What console you playing it on? I'm considering getting the new 360 controller with the twisty d-pad cause I feel like I'm battling my old worn controller as much as Baraka.
Portal 2 is also fantastic but that was never in doubt, MK is a nice surprise.

Both have their pros and cons. I tend to use the PS3 for single player and 360 for multiplayer. Add me on 360 if you want. Barrington. Don't have many 360 games at the mo but who knows what the future holds for us both.
As for something else making me smile, watched The Social Network again last night. Just such a great f*cking film. Love it.

The challenger tower is great, lots of cool changes to the norm.
The PS3 controller is better for fighting games but I prefer the 360 overall, I sold my PS3 cause I was never playing it and wanted to upgrade to the new 360.

Only on about #30 myself. I imagine it would be difficult to keep it going for 300 challenges and still have variety. Although so long as they throw in a bit of humour, it's okay. I did one where Mileena wants to give Scorpion a teddy bear. It was just a normal fight but she had a teddy in her hand and text would come up where she tells you how cute and soft the teddy is. That was pretty funny, though I can see some of them getting annoying.

The Challenge Tower is a good idea, however, past a certain point it's just the same challenges with different kharacters and it rapidly gets repetitive. I'm up #233 now, and I reckon there's been somewhere between 30-40 different ones, which just isn't good enough really.

Imagine the crud I must have gotten rid of if I still thought to myself "Better hang on to That 70's Show..."
Quote: Barrington, Apr 2011Brought 56 DVDs, about 10 Blurays, 5 tv boxset and a DS game into Gamestop for trade-in. I was going to take the cash, which he said would have been between €50-60, but they had a special deal where you got 50% extra for store credit. €194 store credit. Couldn't turn that down. LA Noire is out later this month which would have been €50 anyway.
And I probably still have some stuff I could ge rid of in the future, such as all 8 seasons of That 70's Show
We're quite alike in many ways.
