    Hey I am going to go pick up MK and just wondering what 1 should I pick up? I know that ps3 has some extra but is it worth it with the great job ps3 doing right now?

    Online doesn't matter.  It's worse netcode than MvC3.

    PS3 has Kratos. And they didn't even have to change his name. It already kame spelled with a k.

    I think the marketing guys got a half day off of work when they discovered that coincidence.

    In light of recent events, do you really want to buy anything for the PS3?

    Hey man I love my PS3, but I've kind of lost faith in Sony's ability to provide a safe online experience. I'm willing to bet that there are many people on GB that feel the same way.

    Honestly it doesn't really matter. It's really just up to personal preference.
    Its good on both and has just as much content on both.
    I only got it on PS3 because I was getting Portal 2 on PS3 and didn't wanna make the sales person have to open the other case just so I could have MK on XBOX.

    If you're really over thinking it because of Sonys position, you'd better go with xbox. Honestly people need to chill the fuck out.

    Unless you're insanely eager to get online immediately, which I assume you're not since you've already waited two weeks before picking up the game, you should get it on PS3.  Extra character, extra stage, and the better d-pad (not sure how much this matters in MK).  The campaign, ladder matches and challenge tower will give you plenty to do until PSN is back up.

    Answer:Buy it on the console that you prefer the controller on. If you plan on playing with a stick, it doesn't matter. Buy it on the console where your friends are at.

    Also, agreed. I don't understand this mentality. If you have that mentality about the PS3, just get the xbox version, because I want to weed these kind of people out of my PSN experience. Thanks.

    well apparently visually the graphics looks better on xbox than ps3, but only very slightly if you check the lens of truth site.

    but whatever you know more people on with this game :)
