... then it's a new depressing chapter in the sad book of DLC-milking.

... and I'll never ever feed it with my money.

ZombieAssassin4780d ago

I believe the article is talking about buying them from the krypt in-game.

TheEatingChampagne4780d ago

@ZombieAssassin, I guess people just like to comment without actually checking out the article..
OT, nothing bad about that.. Will only give me more motivation.

Dac2u4780d ago

Still won't be as bad as buying the DLC for The Fight: Lights Out. You can buy cheat codes for 99 cents, but you only get 10 uses per purchase. I knew DLC was going to be bad when they started it, but I never thought it would be this bad.

kagon014780d ago

Of course, a good example the old costume Scorpion has his old fatality, but you only can get it as a DLC if you pre-order from gamestop...

Unfortunately, this game is not valuable for me due to the fact that it has DRM, and its incomplete...

If you want to unlock things you have to pay...

TheBlackSmoke4780d ago

All of the pre-order bonuses are in the game to unlock. The pre-order is just there to give it to you straight away.

No matter what they offer as DLC people will complain "waaa the game is incomplete". The fact is there is enough content in the retail game to justify full price, especially compared to generic 4 hour long FPS of the week.

Fatalities have nothing to do with gameplay, they are as important as alternate costumes.

Congrats for not knowing what you are talking about.

Bear_Grylls4780d ago

"Congrats for not knowing what you are talking about."

Says the one bubbler lol.

KingDustero4780d ago

@Bear

Smoke does know what he/she is talking about. All these preorder bonuses are IN-GAME. One just unlocks them right off the bat instead of having to unlock them in the Krypt.

Also the article shows coding that is for fatalities that are IN THE GAME. All of these leaks are from coding in the PS3 demo. Boom has confirmed MULTIPLE times that there will NEVER be DLC that is just an unlock code. He and NRS all know that EVERYTHING that was in the code at the time of the demo build is known by the public.

The game has SIXTY-FIVE fatalities in the disk that are ALL unlock-able. Plus each character except for one has at LEAST TWO alternate costumes. There are also TWENTY-NINE stages in the game (THIRTY) for the PS3 version. The story is also FIFTEEN hours long as well. This is a COMPLETE game that is well worth $60.

There will of course be DLC, but there is NOT a SINGLE feature that is half-assed in the retail version of the game just make content better via DLC.

Please know what you're talking about before speaking.

lol no value....lets see....

story mode = 15+hrs
challenge tower = 5-8hrs
tag team
test your various skills
several online modes
29+ stages
26+ characters
60+ fatalies 2-3 per character + stage fatalities
1-2 alt costumes a character
tons more unlockables in the krypt

am i missing something? becuase the way i see it the game prob has more value than 80% of the games out there. hell i have prob a couple hundred matches in the demo alone. do your homework before posting nonsense

Sharingan_no_Kakashi4780d ago (Edited 4780d ago )

LOL...that would be sad.... but oddly hilarious.

Oh wait... they're talking about from the Krypt.

Emilio_Estevez4780d ago

This article said nothing about buying them.....You can unlock them in the Krypt, but I wouldn't be surprised if there was a shorcut DLC, so you could pay like $5 and have access to them all without having to unlock them.

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.

Relientk77180d ago

That's the one I played the most as a kid. Fun times gaming on my Sega Genesis, the memories

Terry_B180d ago

Deception, MK2, MK9, MKX ..rest.

Kakashi Hatake180d ago

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.

Tankbusta40179d ago

1 and 2 were cultural phenomenon's.

specialguest179d ago

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
