indeed DA was pretty beast,loved the bleedout thing when certain char stabbed you with there weapon
deception of course was ****ing insane being baraka was godtier in it
MKA was ok apart from i didnt like the way fatalites where done
mk4 i could live without though,gold was better

I've only played an hour or two of MK4/Gold ever. From what I can remember, I really didn't dig it. HAving said that though, I'd still love to have it in the collection.

I remember playing Deception so much as a child, getting all the chests and unlockable stuff on Konquest. Chess Kombat was pretty fun too

I really hated Konquest mode in MK: Deception. It just made me think "if I wanted to run through the realms uppercutting folks, then I'd just fire up MK Shoalin Monks instead"

ye i really liked konquest mode,shujenko was a beast! (so sad he wasnt brought back for mk90

puzzle kombat was my fav side game throughout the series but yes the chess was pretty fun also

Nah, I really couldn't stand it, man. I enjoyed the Konquest in Deadly Alliance a lot more, and that was just basic training with a text story thrown over it.
I did love the puzzle Kombat too though. I still jam on that when playing UMK3 on DS. I'm awful at puzzle games though, but it's still a bit of fun.

Yip, it sure is. Not sure if it's exactly the same version as the Decption one (because it's been quite a while since I've played Deception), but it makes for some easy bus rides between Drogheda and Galway.

I wouldn't mind picking up Unchained, but my PSP is a heap of junk. Was just talking to Razer about MK handhelds the other day at TYH. I was telling him how I have MK4 on the Gamboy, and Scorpion's name is too big for the health bar, so he's just called Scorpio in it :pac:

Flat out on MK1 with the PDP. Good ****.

But have any of you noticed the **** ups?
****ty music loops, sounds changed and missing, horrible music quality etc?

MK II 's kredits is a perfect example.

i havn't noticed any sounds get better.

im pretty sure MK II is still ****ed up sound wise and Goro's Theme still doesn't play fully in the attract mode.

Ill check em both out again in a bit. And yes I did download the patch lol

US has it now too..... NO MORE BLACK SCREENS!

All the best,

Did they ever fix all the problems with Mortal Kombat arcade Kollection on xbox 360?

brianon

I've not tried the game in ages. Must start it and see if there is a patch.

deathrider

And just like Scorpion himself (our, ya know, that holy lad that everybody talks about round this time of year), the MKAK thread comes back from the dead. I don't know if anything has been patched on the Kollection, but then again, I don't remember anything really needing a patching. Having said that though, I very rarely went online with it, so that could be were the issues arise.

I thought that the problems with it were that they opted NOT to include all the streaming balance patches the original MK9 had in the offline code, and instead decided to fix some display glitches with the characters hair?

I think that's what I was told when I was konsidering picking up kollection when it was kheap...

quinnd6

There were a lot of looping sound problems , screen tearing and having to wait a few seconds after pausing.
That's what I heard anyway.
I didn't bother with it.

OriginalRazer

Just get it.... I need someone to play (psn)

All the best,

I honestly don't recall experiencing any of the problems mentioned here.

Oh, and R-Man:

I'm a big MK fan, this kollection was a total disappointment. I ignored the 4:3 aspect ratio but my biggest beef was actual keylock! I mean, seriously!? Keylock!? They must've used some sort of keyboard -> controller emulation. Also the controls lock out when after playing after having paused the game, totally ridiculous when you consider you might go have a glimpse at the fatality inputs and then not actually being able to perform it in time because of the lock out. The only cool thing about this kollection was the game select menu, that's about it...

I wasn't too impressed myself. But I still play it PSN or 360?

Yeah, sure, I can play a few games. I'm on 360. I've played MK1 and 2 back in the day but only got hardcore when MK3 was out so I'd be interested in playing MK3 but 2 is ok too.
