    Mortal Kombat

    Game » consists of 26 releases. Released Apr 19, 2011

    One of the goriest fighting game franchises returns to its roots, introducing a new story that re-tells the events of the first three Mortal Kombat games (with a unique twist).

    Finally got a chance to play the new MK at pax east

    I tried to stay away from as much of the media about this game as possible aside from the extreme hype the bombcast was giving the game, but figured since it was on the show floor as a playable demo I might as well give it a try seeing as the game is right around the corner at this point anyways. I expected to see over the top character models/fatalities and special moves but I never expected it to play as good as it did. Combos felt fast and responsive which at least IMHO is a far cry from how it felt in MKvDC. I ended up waiting in line with my friends to play the game a total of 3 times and that still didn't feel like enough but at least shit will be out in a few weeks 
     
    Little sidenote Cyrax was my favorite character out of who I played (nightwolf, jax, liu kang,noob saibot and cyrax) and his fatality was easily my favorite of the bunch.

    I loved the demo at PAX, sold me even more on the full game. 
    Payed it off as soon as I got back. 
    Can't wait.

    Heck, the demo I played last week on PSN convinced me and it only had 4 characters.  I'm a little leery of there being as many characters as there are, BUT from what I've seen everyone feels unique.  I am pretty excited.  Also, April 19th rules because Portal 2 AND MK on the same day!
