Mortal Kombat problems for the PS3 platform?

since i got the game its froze once or twice at the press start screen, shao khans voice skipped in the story cutscene at the end, online is just horrible.. no custom soundtrack whch was a big thing i was looking forward too, how can it possibly be in the demo but not the full game.. not too many things wrong with the game but the things that are wrong are really wrong..
 
I have had the game freeze on the title screen or right before the title screen multiple times. Not a huge deal though once the game gets going it doesn't freeze for me.

It is actually a VERY BIG BIG deal that the game freezes like that man! I dont want to be turning on and off my system 10 times before I can get passed the "Press Start" screen and actually play the game! Man I had to literally do that 6 times TODAY alone before I could start playing. And you know what? When the game freezes, you have to "turn off" the system by ONLY pressing the "power button" or for you FAT PS3 users, hold down the power button for 5 seconds OR turn off the power switch in the back of the console! THIS IS NOT HEALTHY AT ALL FOR THE PS3, to keep turning it on and off and on and off and on and off and on and off AND GOD DAMN ON AND OFF, ETC...!.!.!.!

They had BETTER fix this problem! It is getting very VERY frustrating!!!!
 
had 1 freeze in King of the Hill Spectaters Mode ..and then sometimes ..the introfiles of the chars aren't clean (very rare) - they seem to stuck because of something. for example they speak like this "perfecececect"

AND my biggest issue I'm not able to play against a friend from chicago (I'm from Austria EU) ..in private matches ..He doesn't get my invites and I dont get his ..
 
I have had no issues at all outside of online play. No game skipping during autosaves, etc. I've read about those issues but haven't experienced them and I played it for over 12 hours straight after I picked it up!

Me too actually . My game skipped once but that was it . And it was only one word . Shao Kahn said one word twice that was it . He said something like you you will die . But other than that , that was it . IDK what everyone else is talking about
 
The only time my game froze was ONCE during store mode. It was kind of funny though because it gave Shao Kahn a stutter. Other than that, the not being able to play my own music is the only thing I've noticed that I would ***** about. But somebody started a petition thread on here, so hopefully we'll get that feature back soon.
 
The game has frozen 3x for me so far. Once during story mode, then twice on the Scorpion vs. Mileena teddy bear challenge tower match. After restarting the system again, I did a few fatality tutorials to work off steam and went back to challenge tower, worked fine.
 
This piece of trash has frozen on me multiple times. I thought i had the problem solved then i started experiencing the sound skipping followed immediately by goddamn freezing again. I am so pissed as i had already exchanged the game for another copy thinking i had a defective disc but apparently the game is glitched up. $60 for this crap, thanks Netherrealm Studios. Unbelievable garbage.
 
Havent experienced any skips during saves or anything like that. Havent got to lay online so I wouldnt know. But off line I havent had any problems period.
 
I've only had one problem and that was some kind of static in the sound (not related to my cords); all I did was restart the game and it was good; I haven't had any other problems since.
 
In the hope that NRS hears of this thread I'll post mine.
Challenge tower I was doing a few combos with Jade when suddenly screen goes black for a few seconds & I'm back at the ps3 XMB :O
Also the one that many of us have had..Audio skipping & no audio at all on occasion.
 
I've had my system shut itself off with a red blinking light about 6x now since I started playing, not sure if it's overheating and is a system problem or if it's the game itself. The only other thing I've played this week is the moon diver demo and that ran fine for an hour.

Thinking it's likely the game since others have reported similar issues.
 
PS3 Update:

After many more hours of gameplay and manually starting/restarting the game numerous times, I have still only had 2 freezes. Once as the game first loaded and once in story mode. Game seems really stable for me.
 
I had some skipping and I had a match over where poisened Kitana was lying dead in mid air on challenge tower
 
I cant even play my game now. all day its done nothing but freeze at the press start screen. this is a real shame. i tried playing some other games and they work so im pretty sure its my MK game. anyone else cant play at all because of the freezing? any suggestions?
 
The game is freezing at the Press Start screen likely due to the PSN. Sign out of it and the game should start up properly. Of course this means no Online for the mean time.
 
Twice I got ejected from the online mode, and it counted as a rage quit. Which bothers me because I wanted to maintain my disconnect score at 0.
