---__Sub-Zero__--- posted:Hi, so, i came back home 3hrs ago from Germany, GC...I was there the whole time and played MKvsDC at the Midway booth alot (instead of playing just 2 rounds every time like i was told, i played 8 hehe)..so, all in all i played throughout the 4 days around 24 rounds of the game... the 1st days it was ok to record stuff, but i was too busy with enjoying the game, that i decided to record the 3rd day, but that day came some dude from Midway in a white shirt and told me its forbidden to record lol..so, sorry for not recording stuff...ill just have to talk about it..although, i did record 1 round with Sonya and Superman in the Batcave of some guyz playing and the select screen..with a few pictures aswell..so atleast that will do... At GC, i played most of the games there and i even was at a behind closed doors press presentation of the new NFS:Undercover ..so yeah, it was a great year GC... Now, here is what i managed to record and put for download on Rapidshare, all HQ 1280x720,30fps,HD Divx: Select Screen: http://rapidshare.com/files/140095252/mk_dc_select_gc08_screen.avi Gameplay Sonya VS Superman, Batcave - Sonyas Flying around, bycicle kick, freefall kombat: http://rapidshare.com/files/140096656/sonya_sman_gc08_j.avi Pictures: HQ High-res Joker vs Sub-Zero select screen: HQ Scorpion vs Kitana select screen: HQ Scorpion vs Joker select screen: HQ Hi-res MK vs DC logo wallpaper black&white: Thoughts on the game: Hm, ok, i did read what Kabalfritz posted, yet it was long hehe..but nevermind, even though ill write what i personally think too so you can hear from more people.. Graphics: The visuals of this game are very detailed. They have detailed animation and nice colours. The game is dark enough, yet at the same time bright to see whats happening. For eg. Sub-Zeros freeze...you can see like small single crystals..everything really looks very new, good, nice..it has a MK feel to it..the only thing that dissapointed me was, that the game wasnt very sharp..it seemed too blured..like if it was behind some glass..maybe it was just the settings on the TVs they had and the fact i played from a 20cm distance lol..i dunno, hard to say.. Animation: ..the animation is very smooth..and the game was all the time around those 60fps...i would say something like 45fps-55fps...very fast..if you figured out the combos, the game was totally fast, faster, faster, zomg lol..Flash himself was like a rocket...people who thought the game would lack speed can be happy now..because it really feels allright..i mean, even in old MKs..if you want to play slowly, its your option..but inside, MK is a fast fighting game..the characters dont have any odd moves..except when performing the fatalities..all do the same at the beginning..thats the only error i can think off..like they sort of shake... Gameplay: Hm, hard to say how it feels - compared to the old MK games..i would say something between MK3/Trilogy...the RAGE! mode is very interesting and when i accidently activated it i was very happy..its a nice feature over the top...you have first hits, combos, combo breakers...freefall combat..thats really good..i really love freefall since it gives the game a cinematic feel...one dude gets pushed out of the arena, both falling down..they get "stuck" in air if you decide to make a special-move to it...it can all get easily turned around..but the smash in the end is cool...the game has a very creative feel..i know that mixing MK with DC isnt just right..but deep inside i just love it, because it really works well...the characters fit each other and it gives MK a new fresh attitude it needed..after a few rounds i got obsessed with the game..wanting more..and thats definately good...i have to say, its all about timing and elegancy...! Characters: Scorpion...hm, he is, how to say it..quiet. Yeah, thats the right word. He has some cool moves (and some got improved a bit graphically from comic-con)..but overall i dunno why, but he felt somwhat "dry"..as much as i love him and as good as he looks..he was just a bit boring.. Sub-Zero..ok, he is my fav MK char from the old ages lol..but still, i have to say, i really like him in this game...he has good moves..which look and feel good..slide, freeze (D+L+X, clone-freeze/sword uppercut, ice from sky, ice teleport (which is on the PS3 i believe D,D,B,Square or X)..nice mix of classic moves and new ones Sonya..well, i played as her just twice, but loved it... she has practically only classical moves..she has a bicycle kick (both up and down)..then her kiss thing, projectile shooting, tip over...she looks good and its quite easy to play as her..you can get all the combos the 2nd time...and are easy to combine

IslayDCheros posted:Thanks for the videos although since they are avi files, I had to open them with VLC player. Not a big deal, tho. It was cool to see Sonya's moves and also the "floating" thing on Freefall Kombat. It really didn't seem to hinder the game that much.......but it did look weird. Wow! That was a really good overall analysis of the game. I'm always curious what "fans" have to say, as I take those to be a good unbiased review. I do appreciate it. Btw, this is the 2nd time that I heard Sonya Blade is fun to play and that she's badass. Seriously.....Sonya Blade?
