Posted on 19 December by Chris Howe – PS Store and Plus Content Manager, SCEE:
Hello everyone! I hope you’re all enjoying the new content that arrived on PlayStation Plus at the beginning of December. As we move through the gift-giving season I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to inform you of all the awesome content changes you can expect in January.
Trevor Walker said: Fighting games have always been able to simultaneously experiment and innovate while staying true to their roots in the best of ways. Mechanics change, crossovers take place, and evolution occurs. One of the best examples of all three can be seen in the coveted guest character.
The fighting genre is full of mini-games, from Street Fighter's car destruction to Tekken Ball. Here's the best Mortal Kombat mini games.
Cultured Vultures: We've gone to the trouble of ranking the Mortal Kombat games across the series' history. Special Forces is clearly number one.
My favorite is always going to be Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3. I know some people didn't like the addition of the run button. But, man that game is burned into my memory from childhood, lol.
MK2 will always be the best in the series. Been playing a lot of MK1 lately though. Definitely enjoying it more than any other NRS era MK game.
I will always have a special place in my memory for MK 1 and 2. You had to be there during that era at the arcades. Martial arts tournament fighting movies were still popular, and MK 1 was exciting. Real life motion captured characters done well (unlike Pit Fighter). A cast of characters we all liked like Bruce Lee(Lui Kang), Van Damme(Johnny Cage), the Lightning god(Raiden) from Big Trouble in Little China, and Ninjas, gotta have Ninjas. Goro was menacing as hell. The MK arcade had some of the best speakers similar to Killer Instinct as you could hear the loud crisp and bassy sound that was distinctly different than other arcades. MK 2 improved greatly on the controls and fighting mechanics
Wtf didn't Guardians of Middle Earth just come out this month? Damn son that's awesome, even though I don't live in the EU I'm glad they are getting awesome content. I enjoyed Bioshock 2 this month in NA and hopefully you Europeans enjoy it as well.
Dont have any of the games on plus in January so im very happy.
Wow they will get bioshock 2. its wired that the US got something first for once lol. can wait for the US plus update!
Omg awesome we get Batman Arkam City and Vanquish this month and next Bioshock 2 and Mortal Kombat!
What´s next - The Darkness 2 maybe? :O
I already own a retail version of BS2 but i'll be glad to pick up the other ones.
Leaving PS Plus:
Mortal Kombat (PS Vita)
Haven't seen this one which one is it? Does anyone know?
