Mortal Kombat vs. Dead or Alive

[Sega Uranus]

I must say that, Itagaki is my true god, Ninja Gaiden has got to be the closest to perfect game I have EVER played (and I have a very soft spot for the DOA franchise). I just think that Boon would be a waist of time... for the most part. I think he would rather talk about the "new" Mortal Kombat games, and how great a franchise he has, and not about how hard it was to "copy" his characters.

I have even less intrest in the franchise ever since I saw the G4 interview. Ed mentioned stuff like how he copied the characters off of other movies, and franchises, and how they just sit around all day saying chinese "sounding" words to come up with the names... thats pathetic!

However, as Melf being my other god, I wish you luck, in you getting your Ed Boon interview.

WTF

Uranus WTF is rong with you!?!!!!!????

MK is legendary! Think without it the ripple effect is ginourmous!!!!

1.no Eternal Champions
2.no violent fighting games like this one
3.ther will only be clones of SF 2
4.It is to this date the most crontriverseal fighting game of all time

think about it Uranus(laughs uncotrollibly)

[David J.]

1. Wrong, fighting games became popular after SF2, not MK.

2. There where violent games before your time.

3. Where's your proof?

4. Maybe.

[Wampaa]

Mortal Kombat was talked about in Congress. So, I would have to agree with Strida on 4 all the way. MK was infamous. It definately set the bar high for violent games. Probably had alot to do with the fact the characters were digitized actors and the violence was shocking. Who could forget the first time they saw Sub Zero rip a guys spine out?

[Sega Uranus]

Only #4 is kinda correct, and besides I have YET to find a fighting game WORSE then Mortal Kombat on the Genesis.

I mean come on, A is a 3 punch combo... FOR EVERY CHARACTER!



yes, MK is Legendary... but so is Adolf Hitler.





0H BURN3D!

Shaq Fu,Brutal,tons of SF2 clones

Dave J-1.that is true but this is the only let alone good SF 2 clone that had pretty much the exact same sucess of SF 2

2. there was Time Killers but that just sucked

3.Explain Shaq Fu


Uranus-I can name another fighting game on the Genesis that had the same combo system as MK
SF 2!!!

k

yea DOA is good for nerds who have never met a woman, and are severly attracted to virtual chicks

WHAT NOW know what


O'DOYAL RULZ!!!!!!!!!!!!

plus seeing that Mr.Boon is American he cant come up with China names of the top of his head, plus he couldnt research on the internet

That's why we have libraries

Having played DOA since the psx (a time before my balls dropped), I liked the characters for there PERSONALITIES (same thing with Disney chicks), not there "bounce", it just feels weird to me to think of them sexually... but the reason I like DOA is because the ability to stop any move, and reverse it is just so damn cool in a fast fighting game (I don't like wrestling games). Besides THOSE are not real.

Street Fighter 2 is fun because it has more than like 5 moves, and has charaters that PLAY much diffrently too.

THEY STILL DO THE RANDOM NAME THING THOUGH!



and, its sad that the biggest combos in MK: Deception are basically left, right, left, punch.

I do, however like "some" of the ideas used in the new Mortal Kombats.

[Dartagnan1083]

Stoping every move gets annoying and unbalances things.
Turning the entire game into Rock-Paper-Scissors.
Besides. . .you can stop most moves in VF4, but AM2 had the courtessy to balance it.

It's nice, but not something I'd spend too much money on.

[Sega Uranus]

Most of those problems were fixed in DOA: Ultimate, and are going to be carried onto DOA4.

I think VF4 evo is my fave 3D fighting game, but you can't throw Lau down a flight of stairs, and Pai can't get hit by a car!

Did anyone notice, that in VF4 in windy areas, that the women's breast slightly blow in the wind?

[StRiDA CoL]

now what Uranus lets just forget this ok, first off DOA is a Tekken clone with sexullaity and some characters are cool but most are dumb. I like MK because its easy to pick up and play and its fast paced like SF and Vitura Fighter. DOA is just to slow and un original for me.

just dont friggin critisize me for liking Mortal Kombat, and the combos in Deception are much bigger, not Marvel vs Capcom big (1-99 hits jesus)
but it's still fun, has great graphics still as bloody than ever. DOA is now just rehashes of all the games just ported on XBox with graphic enhance ments and online play. MK is just mire original for me than Slut and Pornstar fighter I mean DOA

You tell me to stop this, and for me to stop critisizing you (I haven't done this), and then YOU critisize me for LIKING DOA?

Tekken clone? DOA is NOT a Tekken clone, Tekken basses it's game largely on "Juggles" (like the new MK games), not countering your opponent, then THROWING them off a bridge down the stairs, so if anything, the new MK is Tekken clone. DOA is easier for noobs to pick up, and play without you worring about button mashing as much.

DOA has a lot of great charcters... except some newer ones, but they are still MUCH more original then most MK characters, and DOA is far faster, and I count WAY more skimpy outfits, and huge breasts in MK: Deception, then in DOA: Ultimate.

Yes, MK: Deception has more features than DOA: Ultimate, but it's a fighting game (I classify MKD as a party game for all the useless features, still a fun game), and as such has WAY more moves, and levels then MK: Deception anyday!

Where is this porn in DOA? I see badley clothed women, but I do not see any porn.


MK was original in the day, now it is NOT!

DOA isn't very original, but hey, does a game need to be original to be fun (same with MK)?

I say, we just stop fighting over this, and just show eachother why we like the series we like, first you must watch the DOA2 Ultimate intro (go to gamespot or something), and then you show me something you like about MK (I have seen the 9-hour MKD intro).

are we cool (I hate to fight)?

[j_factor]

DOA (the first one) is more like VF than Tekken.

I have nothing else to say, aside from that I liked the first DOA a little but none of the others, and I really can't tell the difference between DOA2 and 3 aside from graphics.

[StRiDA CoL]

o fine but wait

you never gave a full belivible reason why you hate MK though

anyway if you answer this question without talking about the other posts you put then yes we are cool

but i still hate DOA
