Looking forward to this one, a lot. Though I really need to get some practice in, I pretty much gave up MK after 3, until the relaunch. So I still suck donkey balls at it just now.. Time to get some old-school blisters on my thumbs :D

I tried playing MK10 but I am confused with it. The last MK i played was UMK3.

You mean the best mortal kombat game you played was Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3. :P

But I feel more consistent players of the series (ones who play them all in order and not skip around) would probably understand the games better. It probably helps to play the ninth entry seeing as that's when the in gameplay quality comes from. MK XL evolves from that game and so on until we get to where we are now. :ninja:

Looks like they toned down the combos, no more rushdown and 50/50s and made this more neutral, footsie based play compared to MKX, which is interesting.

What the hell happened to the models ? Not a single character's face is even close to MK9 or MKX .. I'm a huge MK fan , but so far I don't like that change.

9 was great, the best since UMK3, but X was garbage....hopefully the new one has gameplay more like 9 and the classics.

MK fan or no, that trailer was awesome. I love the idea of them fighting the classic versions of themselves. I wish more fighting games would age the characters. Mark of the Wolves at least had old Terry Bogard, but come on..

    @AncientBoi, Yeah, believe you can do PSP games as well. But a Pi5 is much powerful in comparison.

    Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Other games I can have turned up to like 2X and all kinds of enhancements, Motorstorm hmmm nope 1X and no enhancements lol

    I dread the price point.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
