    Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

    This game comes out in about two weeks 11-11-11. I haven't been this excited for a game release in a long time. I played the crap out of Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion, about 150 hrs on one play-through and never even touched the expansion content, probably going to reinstall so I can play through...

    Stryker NEEDS help badly

    Stryker is one of my "main 4" along with Kano, Mileena and Liu Kang, I chose 4 to focus on cause I prefer tag and have fun mixing and matching these 4. So please don't think I just picked him up yesterday and on here crying cause I got owned. I have about 300 matches played with him online and...

    Loss of control

    I re-read an EGM interview with Ed Boon that was done a while back while MK9 was still in development, issue #239 Boon stated that one of the things he hated about most other fighting games was loss of control of your character, thus the reason we have combo breakers in the game. However, IMO...

    Koins

    So who else has an obnoxious amount of koins and has everything in the krypt unlocked and challenge tower done? I just broke 300k haha. I like to use expert ladder instead of the standard practice mode to practice and it's starting to show :)

    Looking to train/play with west coast TRMK ppl

    Any good west coast US or west Canada players want to train using mics? I'd like to see how good some of you guys are as well :) But I'm super picky about connection, if the char select is laggy I usually bail and eat the loss. I'm in MT but I still usually connect well with my bro who lives in...

    Which version is used in tournaments?

    Tried finding this online but not much talk about it. I'm just curious which version is most often used in tournaments? I'm guessing the PS3 version because of Kratos... I'd love to enter a tournament but would be way off my game if they tossed me a 360 controller Wish they didn't put Kratos in...

    Which DLC character do you NOT want to see

    Been messing around with MK Deception recently and noticed many of the characters play exactly like the characters who are missing from Deadly Alliance (the game before it). With all the possibilities of characters NRS could add who do you think would be a complete waste of space and we should...

    Crazy Noob/SZ combo

    So I was playing some TAG matches last night and this guy was using Noob/SZ. Every round he caught me with a 3 hit combo that was 2hit with SZ then assist attack from Noob. Noob's assist is his "haha you can't block" fireball move. After this combo he could hit me over and over with a 2 hit...

    Ignore List

    Noob question here... Does anyone know where to find the ignore list in MK9 on the PS3? I think I have accidentally hit ignore on 100+ people when refreshing the lobby list cause the option button and the ignore button are the same. It doesn't add them to your PSN block list when you hit ignore...

    Sub-Zero's specials need help

    Started using Sub-Zero and noticed that he really could use one more special. Either that or buff his ice ball so that body projectiles don't pass through it (Raiden's superman, Kano's upball, etc) or being hit doesn't break your ice clone or faster startup on ground freeze. His EX slide having...

    Inconsistency

    As I play this game more and more I am noticing a staggering large amount of inconsistencies in how some exchanges are handled. For example; -sometimes Liu Kang's EX flying kick will hit Raiden out of his superman, sometimes not -most of the time high attacks wiff when you duck, sometimes not...

    Liu Kang's counter...

    ... is desperately in need of an additional frames buff or something. I try to use it as a wakeup, it even registers as a wakeup.. and yet I get hit out of it ALL THE TIME (doesn't matter if it's a low attack or not) when I use it in this manner. When not used as a wakeup its a total guessing...

    Liu Kang's wake up

    Been using Liu Kang as one of my alt characters (currently maining Kano) and I'm having difficulty with wake up games. It seems that all of his specials have low priority so none are very viable as a wake-up attack. I've tried using his parry/counter as a wake-up but it doesn't seem to do...

    Spammers?

    So I had this match last night against a guy using Sektor, I was using Kano. His entire strat was using only his forward missile and his teleport, which is easily punishable when not part of a combo or counter. I would punish his teleport with a 2,1,2 upper ball combo (or some other variation)...
