Umm no ^^, you see Midway Arcade was arcade perfect with the exception of the shadows and music.


^^that^^

Midway Acade was arcade perfect with the exception of the shadows and music? You're contradicting yourself. If there are exceptions, then it's not perfect is it? Perfect insinuates that THERE'S NOTHING WRONG. And those weren't the only things wrong. Smoke was inaccessible on MAT2 and everyone was irrate about that. I didn't say anything about the gameplay, it's the presentation that was shitty.

Look, if you think I'm being a crybaby about it, vist the past posts when Deception Premium Pack and MAT2 came out. There were a slew of people that were screaming foul and they had a reason to. There were also people like you defending a half-assed game with a half-assed argument.



Umm, what are you talking about?Deception Kollector's Edition didn't have MK 2 or MK3 like it was originally said before they changed it to MK 1 so .....yeah......MK 1 played fine for it, the one I got anyway.

And no I never called you a cry baby, it's just people like you complain about the most retarded shit no offense when the gameplay is what REALLY counts, who gives a rats ass about shadows or music that plays after the fatality on an old MK game that's NOT even online.

BTW, I will correct myself with the last post but you knew what I meant.You're just busting chops.The game plays well for the most part if you DON'T let the trivial things get to you.Now, no game is perfect but hey I can tell you want every game perfect with your posts.Not happening.

And it's not half-assed when I know I'm right with the gameplay issues.People like you I just feel like saying, listen either buy the damn game or don't.No need to make a million posts bitching about how you're disappointed with it.

I'm well aware of the past posts concerning the fans that hate MAT and KE Deception with MK 1, I think the same of them.There's no real gameplay problems with it and that's what counts in the end.It's offline so who give a shit really another thing, and they're really old games.Midway might have rushed MAT however, would you rather they make a game that's not online and old perfect for your personal delight or have them make the newer MK's better with online play along with the new UMK3 coming out for the 360 arcade perfect?Exactly

Man. It's like I want to believe I'm talking to someone that knows what they're talking about but it's just not happening.

First, when I said Deception, I was referring to MK1, which had one minor problem. The music in the Courtyard stage was practically muted. Yes, that's the only problem and yes, I am going to bitch about it because there's no excuse for something like that.

Second, I never said you called me a crybaby and it's not just me "complaining" about "retarded" (great choice of words by the way. Way to single out mentally handicapped people) things. They're legitimate concerns and there were about 30 other peeps bitching about it. Yeah, gameplay makes the game. Let's say you're playing Super Mario Brothers that just got ported. Except, it was ported without any background graphics. Wouldn't that just slightly annoy you? Sure, it doesn't affect the gameplay but it makes it bland and it's not like the original. And who gives 2 shits if it's online? I don't. What does that have to do with anything?

Third, no I didn't know what you were talking about. I'm not a fucking psychic. Type out what you are trying to say next time instead of mentally projecting it to me. When did I ever say I wanted a game perfect? Or every game for that matter? When something is coined as arcade perfect, you'd better damn well not give me a sloppy port and that's exactly what it was so quit being a fanboi. I'm a fan of MK too but I'm real enough to point out when something is fucked. You know, for all the shortcommings of MK3 on SNES, it was due to the fact that the console didn't have the hardware to handle it. Not because some programmers are fucking lazy and want to shortcut.

Fourth, when did I make a million posts? I made one. Actually two if you count the other thread You responded in a manner that didn't suit me which provoked me into making you look like a tool more than once. Hell, I haven't even really been around MKO for many months because of all the nickelnuts that belong to it now and all the decent members getting ousted (I won't even go into that). I came back on when alot of others do: when a new MK comes close to being released.

Bottom line, you probably grew up in the 'ol console generation so you've never seen anything other than a ported game. I wouldn't expect you to understand.....

Sweet, I was hoping there would be Premium packs again this year, but why a port of Mk3 and not Mk2?


Its not Mk3, that was a mistake. Its ULTIMATE MK3. Why not Mk2? Because we got that with MK Shaolin Monks.


Ok, that's cool, I've never played UMK3, so that will be good! And, yeah, I forgot about MK2, in Shaolin Monks

You are a rather unique individual, first of all I was pretty specific but apparently not specific enough.That's fine, second off no I'm an oldschool fan followed MK before most on this site have(not for nothing).I also play MK competitively online MK:D, every other one as well when ever I can.Then believe me, I'll show you what I really know about MK gameplay wise.I've loved MK for a very long time.Gameplay, storyline everything.Shit, I even have the tats as well.Now how many fans do that?

Third, of course I see the flaws in MK however although I want them to improve.I won't expect perfection from any game and I also won't make dozens of posts complaining about it endlessly until the point of suicide.

Constructive criticism is ok, but to just bash MK like some on this site is just dumb and repetitive after a while.People want to discuss Mk, not bash it.At least I do, perhaps others get their jollys over it, not me.

The whole bit you gave me about provoking you?I don't believe I did, my opinions often come firm to some, but believe me you would know if I was provoking you.I would be a lot more harsh.I was simply laying down my view firmly, nothing more.How you took it however, that's up to you?If I didn't flame you, I didn't provoke you man.

I understand that there are lots of users or banned users from here that do that shit, I'll admit I hate that myself.The whole "retarded" thing I apologize for.I didn't realize how sensitive you were, I won't use that word again.Note: there's many people on here that use the term "gay" in a degrading matter, yet I don't see you complaining about that?

I agree with you on SNES example and MK3, however it was much better then the Sega version if I had to pick either.MK2 for the SNES was very good.Most feel this way.

The MK 1 in Deception, I had a feeling you were referring to that.Yeah, a minor problem but honestly I wouldn't go ape over it.The gameplay was there, the arcade port was good enough and accurate.Music not being there in one stage, ehh I really don't care to be honest.It's MK 1, the oldest MK how many people are really going to go nuts over that or care that much if you don't mind me asking?

And yes, as you said before gameplay comes first then then everything else.

You guys are both wrong. Yes gameplay is what really matters, but that alone can not be the deffinition of perfectness. Since so many people barely know the game, they are a million times more likely to find issues with sounds or graphics. And apparently, that's what gaming is all about now, graphics over gameplay. Stupid newbs who barely play it aren't going to notice gameplay differences.

But to be arcade perfect, it needs to be perfect in everyway. That's just a given.

I disagree a little bit, in a rushed product you shouldn't expect perfection on such short notice (like MAT for example) all the time.MAT has other games in it, they're not going to go nuts with just the MK's in it.I mean there are fans of the other oldschool Midway titles too you know.I mean, that's why they're taking their time with UMK3 man for the 360 because that will be online meaning more comp right off the bat and they want to make sure it's arcade perfect.That will be ONLY MK and nothing else in the package so they can take their time with it and make it arcade perfect as you say.I prefer arcade accurate.

Also, you just said that silly newbs want graphics then gameplay which is dumb.I agree, however then you said if it's arcade perfect in every way it should be perfect in every way.So, you would rather lets say balance in this case but with the possibility of mediocre gameplay?I'd rather concentrate on the gameplay over everything else personally but that's me.

100% perfection doesn't happen in any game unfortunately.

I see what you're saying, but you have to admit this at least.How many people on here worry about the most stupid stuff when it comes to MK?

Khameleon, shadows that flicker in older MK's but hardly noticable when you're playing, Tremor, Hornbuckle, select screen OMG, OMG it might be rotated OMG..seriously, you can't tell me that shit like this is NOT silly when gameplay is the number one thing you should be worried about.All I'm saying.

Other then that, yeah I agree with you.

Um.... yeah....

This is the main point I've been preaching.

So how was I wrong??

I'm definately not one of those people that take graphics over gameplay. My bitch is don't bill something as perfect when it's not and especially when hardcore MK fans are going to notice that little shit.
