MK being cinematic like this is fine. The gameplay is fiiiiine.
Cinematic doesn't equal bad.

vishmarx3336d ago

exactly, start whining when you you actually think it plays bad.
mx9 played fine and mkx looks the same.
people get too worked up

Hold_It3336d ago

No only games like The Last Of Us and The Order 1886 deserve to be called bad.

slappy5083336d ago

Erm no.. Not the last of us, that's cinematic done right if you want to call it that, in fact it was one of the best games period, I'll. agree with you on the order though they seemed to focus on everything except gameplay. I don't think mortal Kombat will make the same mistake

memots3336d ago

Apatently cinematic is a dirty word now, like indie or something.
30 fps was fine for over 90% of game last gen and any previous gen now it's. Dirty word.
Qte was fine on previous gen now it's dirty word.
Corridor shooting was fine with gears of war but not its a dirty word.
Linear games was fine with uncharted now it's a dirty word.
Racing on a track is fine with every racing game but when it comes to Driveclub it's a dirty word.

People are not picking everything. Developers are having a hard time with the "gamers" what's left every game will have to be sandbox now ?

he's probably talking about story mode

Gazondaily3336d ago

This is a fighting game. Hes obviously talking about the story mode, something that is neglected in the vast majority of fighting games anyway.

If thr combat mechanics are tight, what's there to complain about?

Lower the frame rate to 30 fps then.

MegaRay3336d ago

Dont forget the black bars, the whole "cinematic experience" depends on it!

Krimmson3336d ago

Can't have a cinematic experience without QTEs as well! Throw those in too!

Maxor3336d ago

It doesn't feel cinematic when the more than 50% of the game is under the player direct control. Please include cut scenes for throws and upper cuts.

Wonderful1013336d ago

All great ideas, I'm proud of you guys.

slappy5083336d ago

Fatalities should be QTEs! Infact why not make the whole fight a QTE

Whats lame is that trolls are taking the opportunity to bash a game that released a few weeks ago with almost any article.

Dont you guys have nothing better to do? I dont know about you but I'm enjoying Shadows of Mordoor and soon either The Handsome Collection or Bloodborne.

Spotie3335d ago

What's really lame is that they're getting away with it.

Mods always say to report them, but what's the point?

Kevlar0093336d ago

Are we talking about Mortal Kombat 1 movie, or MK Annihilation movie? Because one of them was good, the other not so much

I wish video games would forge their own identity and stop mimicking the language of TV and movies. Every time I see the word cinematic somewhere in marketing now I get turned off slightly.

Cool. Wanted to play Hell Let Loose and I always enjoy a good golf game. Mortal Kombat X should have been 11 IMO though.

NoFanBoy937d ago

HLL seems a bit of a mess on console, I hope it improves but didn't have fun with the beta.

EvertonFC937d ago

Same was looking fwd to the beta but it was not a great experience

1nsomniac937d ago

Yea HLL is great on PC but is really hard to enjoy currently on console.

NeoGamer232937d ago

Ya, I really wanted to play PGA 2K21 but didn't want to pay the price.

Eonjay937d ago

Agreed. MKX should have been 11. I will play PGA though. Haven't played since Tiger Woods. This month feels lacking.

Ashunderfire86937d ago

I know right lol!!! Mortal Kombat X is free on PS5, but I understand PS4. Heck the PS4 version should be easy to get for just $20 or even less $10 dollars on ebay or selling stuff apps.

Profchaos937d ago

You can play it right now open beta is live and free

MKX was already in PS Plus Collection. This is the second time they've double dipped. Thank god the golf game lets u hit balls into the crowd.

BrainSyphoned937d ago

At least twice this year they have double dipped into PS Now games as well.

Christopher937d ago

Two separate services isn't double dipping. People do understand that, right? Subscribing to one or the other doesn't give you benefits to the other in any way.

jznrpg937d ago

Fine with me I don’t sub to PS now

ocelot07937d ago

You don't know PS Collection is not available to PS4 only owners right? Only way they can claim this is by buying a PS5 or logging into a PS5 and claiming them.

So am pretty sure a fair few of the 100+ million PS4 owners are thankful.

Knushwood Butt937d ago

Mortal Kombat X was never released in Japan so this is another one that won't be included in the lineup for Japan and will probably be swapped for some crap but I'll remain optimistic.

Silly gameAr937d ago

I'm pretty sure MK has never been on plus. In the US anyway.

Not sure what PS Now has to do with PS Plus.

Profchaos937d ago

Lee carvello: may I suggest a putter
You have chosen driver.

CorndogBurglar937d ago

You win for your Simpsons reference.

BLow937d ago

And like clockwork, you always have some complaining. Happy Gaming

Ozzy2407937d ago

Only PS5 owners get the PS plus collection which majority of playstation owners don't have

TheExecutioner937d ago (Edited 937d ago )

Not every one have ps+ collection

When u will stop thinking like a child

Knushwood Butt936d ago

Update

Japan gets Castlevania Requiem instead of MKX

Not crap then!

kneon937d ago

3 games I won't play even when they are free

lipton101932d ago

Really? They’re all legit good games

kneon932d ago

I've never liked those kinds of fighting games so mortal combat is out. Golf? I don't know why such a game even exists. the last time I played a golf game was on the Apple ][. And finally hell let loose looks like just another in the endless stream of ww2 shooters, I already have enough of those in my backlog that I will probably never play either

SurgicalMenace937d ago

You know when you actually buy your games you wouldn't be so ungrateful for the free ones. Just a thought.

LiViNgLeGaCY937d ago

This month just didn't appeal to ME personally. If it's a good a good month for others, hey more power to them. And please, I'm willing to bet I've bought more Playstation games than you have. Probably shouldn't make assumptions about people without really knowing them, just a thought.

SurgicalMenace936d ago

How much you willing to wager, sir? I've purchased just over 20 games this month alone. Have over 830 games in my digital library 250 on my shelf and that is only the PS4. We'll skip the PS1, PS2, PS3, PSP, VITA, and PS5 just to keep it fair. Who's counting though?🤷🏾‍♂️

936d ago
LiViNgLeGaCY935d ago

Whatever you'd like. Since the PS1 days, my collection is in the thousands, just on Playstation alone. Pissing match aside, again, you shouldn't make comments in the future where you look stupid (ex. Telling someone you don't know that they don't buy games)

SurgicalMenace935d ago

Or perhaps, since you have such the healthy collection, stop whining about the charity. If they don't give it, then buy it.

Pocahontas931d ago

WhT do you do for a living to afford 20 games in one month

RedDevils937d ago

Shit games this month. Mortal Kombat X is already on PS+ Collection what the point of have it again. Throwing some indie and would be more happy.

Ozzy2407937d ago

Because the PS+Collection is only for PS5 owners which majority of playstation owners don't have

KyRo937d ago (Edited 937d ago )

Hell Let Loose looks great but it's not a casual game and a bit of a acquired taste. It's nice for people to dive in a d try it though. MKX is already on PS5 for free with the PS collection so that bad for PS5 owners and it was only two months ago everyone complained about a sports title being included as a game but yet they follow suit with another one 🤦🏻‍♂️

PS Plus started so well at the beginning of the year too.

SurgicalMenace937d ago

I never thought I'd see a day when people complain about what they get for free. Hey, there is another great alternative to settling for free games, BUYING what you want.

How much do you think a market leader is going to be willing to cut into their own pockets? How many games do you actually purchase or do you just wait for them to hit plus?

We actually are grown enough to know that we have to pay for greatness over here. You have an option to go to MS if you'd like as well. Otherwise, add it to your library, say thank you, and move on. How old are we here?🤔

KyRo937d ago (Edited 937d ago )

I've been subbed to PS plus since the very day it started when all we'd get is PS1 and minis on PS3. PS Plus as a service was always about the games. Now they've made it a requirement for online play you mistakingly think these games are the bonus. They're not. We pay for access to the games via the subscription. They're not free so before running your mouth and giving it the big one, please educate yourself before calling people out.

SurgicalMenace937d ago (Edited 937d ago )

Well sir, I too have been a PS+ member since it's inception and own well over 3,000 games on PS3, 1200 of PS4, and close to every game available on PS5. I speak from a supporting standpoint and I'm strongly against people who do more talking with their mouths than their wallets.

If you've not invested into the best experience possible, then why should your opinion be acknowledged? Plus is 70 dollars a year that equates to about $6 dollars a month....what do you expect to get, a choice?🤣

The day that beggers become choosers is the day that gaming dies. How many of the new releases have you purchased? If the answer is none, be happy with what is given. When you're playing the latest, you have little concern for the hand outs. Just a thought, champ.🤣

Kurt Russell937d ago

Personally I am looking forward to Hell Let Loose. I don't think I would have dived in with a purchase for that one, but I am dead curious to play it... I am hoping it is just the kind of MP I have been hoping for since R6S went doolally.

KyRo937d ago

Yeah it looks great for sure. I've watched a few people play it on PC and I'm interested to know it's transitioned to console.

outsider1624937d ago

Yesss!! Played HLL open beta and it was amazing. The immersiveness, the one bullet shot, you can't just go running around shooting like in CoD or Bf.

NoFanBoy937d ago

The beta has a low framerate, lag, loads of pop in textures, flickering shadows etc. It felt horrible to control and aim. If they could improve it then there potential.

Majin-vegeta937d ago

Thry are aware.They made a post yesterday

FPS_D3TH937d ago

It’s not really optimized too well on pc yet either. Lots of flickering
