Mortal Kombat X Review - ThisGenGaming

ThisGenGaming says "Mortal Kombat X is another solid entry into the Mortal Kombat series, many thought it would be hard to top Mortal Kombat 9 but Neatherrealm Studio’s proved us wrong with this excellent game. The story mode is good, the amount of content will keep you coming back for months, the finishing moves are as brutal as ever! It’s everything Mortal Kombat X needed to be and then some. If you are a fan of Mortal Kombat then this is the easiest purchase of the year for you, if you aren’t a fan of fighting games then I’d still recommend it because of how fun the game is. To sum this all up… Go buy Mortal Kombat X on Tuesday you won’t be disappointed."

Already have my pre-order on it. It's an early birthday present for myself. :]

Gazondaily3327d ago

Have you had a chance to play online? What's the netcode like?

Testfire3327d ago

@Septic, I was wondering the same thing. One issue imo MK has always had was a piss poor net code. And with Gamespy no longer in business I wonder how this will go. Reviewers should have definitely held off till people get online to see how stable the online play is.

Me too! I just turned on my PS4 and its already downloading it. I should be able to play tomorrow night at 10pm eastern time.

Can't wait! I've been a Mortal Kombat fan since the original and have had every single main entry. This is a no brainer for me.

Sm00thop3326d ago

@Septic I watched a few streams on Twitch even though they were getting banned pretty quick. From the few games I seen played online it looked really smooth, people in the chat also said it ran smooth as well. I'm really hoping it runs well online, Erron Black looks beast too.

Ive got the Xbox One version pre downloaded, so if anyone fancies playing add me GT: SM00TH OP

Gazondaily3326d ago

Cheers mate! Good to hear.

MehmetAlperTR3326d ago

Enjoy it :) I preordered it via steam. but warner bross said there will be no preload. so i have to wait until 14 April 20:00 ( Turkish Time ) 01 PM EST.. I do not understand why tere s no preload for MK X.. Because Steam says it s 40 GB ( atleast 35 GB for min. ).. I m sad..

I got this today and its amazing!!!

Xaphy3327d ago

Cant wait to get my hand on the kollectors edition

Der_Kommandant3327d ago

Tuesday can't come soon enough!

Majin-vegeta3327d ago

While I do love MK.I wish they would go back to using live characters.I hate the models they use now.

crusf3327d ago

I have to disagree with you. The models in MKX are fantastic.

Snookies123326d ago

While the live models do have a certain charm to them... You can always go back and play the old MK games. It would just be weird to have them in HD with their newer games.

Cool. Wanted to play Hell Let Loose and I always enjoy a good golf game. Mortal Kombat X should have been 11 IMO though.

NoFanBoy965d ago

HLL seems a bit of a mess on console, I hope it improves but didn't have fun with the beta.

EvertonFC964d ago

Same was looking fwd to the beta but it was not a great experience

1nsomniac964d ago

Yea HLL is great on PC but is really hard to enjoy currently on console.

NeoGamer232965d ago

Ya, I really wanted to play PGA 2K21 but didn't want to pay the price.

Eonjay965d ago

Agreed. MKX should have been 11. I will play PGA though. Haven't played since Tiger Woods. This month feels lacking.

Ashunderfire86964d ago

I know right lol!!! Mortal Kombat X is free on PS5, but I understand PS4. Heck the PS4 version should be easy to get for just $20 or even less $10 dollars on ebay or selling stuff apps.

Profchaos964d ago

You can play it right now open beta is live and free

MKX was already in PS Plus Collection. This is the second time they've double dipped. Thank god the golf game lets u hit balls into the crowd.

BrainSyphoned965d ago

At least twice this year they have double dipped into PS Now games as well.

Christopher965d ago

Two separate services isn't double dipping. People do understand that, right? Subscribing to one or the other doesn't give you benefits to the other in any way.

jznrpg965d ago

Fine with me I don’t sub to PS now

ocelot07965d ago

You don't know PS Collection is not available to PS4 only owners right? Only way they can claim this is by buying a PS5 or logging into a PS5 and claiming them.

So am pretty sure a fair few of the 100+ million PS4 owners are thankful.

Knushwood Butt965d ago

Mortal Kombat X was never released in Japan so this is another one that won't be included in the lineup for Japan and will probably be swapped for some crap but I'll remain optimistic.

Silly gameAr964d ago

I'm pretty sure MK has never been on plus. In the US anyway.

Not sure what PS Now has to do with PS Plus.

Profchaos964d ago

Lee carvello: may I suggest a putter
You have chosen driver.

CorndogBurglar964d ago

You win for your Simpsons reference.

BLow964d ago

And like clockwork, you always have some complaining. Happy Gaming

Ozzy2407964d ago

Only PS5 owners get the PS plus collection which majority of playstation owners don't have

TheExecutioner964d ago (Edited 964d ago )

Not every one have ps+ collection

When u will stop thinking like a child

Knushwood Butt963d ago

Update

Japan gets Castlevania Requiem instead of MKX

Not crap then!

kneon964d ago

3 games I won't play even when they are free

lipton101959d ago

Really? They’re all legit good games

kneon959d ago

I've never liked those kinds of fighting games so mortal combat is out. Golf? I don't know why such a game even exists. the last time I played a golf game was on the Apple ][. And finally hell let loose looks like just another in the endless stream of ww2 shooters, I already have enough of those in my backlog that I will probably never play either

SurgicalMenace964d ago

You know when you actually buy your games you wouldn't be so ungrateful for the free ones. Just a thought.

LiViNgLeGaCY964d ago

This month just didn't appeal to ME personally. If it's a good a good month for others, hey more power to them. And please, I'm willing to bet I've bought more Playstation games than you have. Probably shouldn't make assumptions about people without really knowing them, just a thought.

SurgicalMenace964d ago

How much you willing to wager, sir? I've purchased just over 20 games this month alone. Have over 830 games in my digital library 250 on my shelf and that is only the PS4. We'll skip the PS1, PS2, PS3, PSP, VITA, and PS5 just to keep it fair. Who's counting though?🤷🏾‍♂️

964d ago
LiViNgLeGaCY962d ago

Whatever you'd like. Since the PS1 days, my collection is in the thousands, just on Playstation alone. Pissing match aside, again, you shouldn't make comments in the future where you look stupid (ex. Telling someone you don't know that they don't buy games)

SurgicalMenace962d ago

Or perhaps, since you have such the healthy collection, stop whining about the charity. If they don't give it, then buy it.

Pocahontas959d ago

WhT do you do for a living to afford 20 games in one month

RedDevils964d ago

Shit games this month. Mortal Kombat X is already on PS+ Collection what the point of have it again. Throwing some indie and would be more happy.

Ozzy2407964d ago

Because the PS+Collection is only for PS5 owners which majority of playstation owners don't have

KyRo965d ago (Edited 965d ago )

Hell Let Loose looks great but it's not a casual game and a bit of a acquired taste. It's nice for people to dive in a d try it though. MKX is already on PS5 for free with the PS collection so that bad for PS5 owners and it was only two months ago everyone complained about a sports title being included as a game but yet they follow suit with another one 🤦🏻‍♂️

PS Plus started so well at the beginning of the year too.

SurgicalMenace964d ago

I never thought I'd see a day when people complain about what they get for free. Hey, there is another great alternative to settling for free games, BUYING what you want.

How much do you think a market leader is going to be willing to cut into their own pockets? How many games do you actually purchase or do you just wait for them to hit plus?

We actually are grown enough to know that we have to pay for greatness over here. You have an option to go to MS if you'd like as well. Otherwise, add it to your library, say thank you, and move on. How old are we here?🤔

KyRo964d ago (Edited 964d ago )

I've been subbed to PS plus since the very day it started when all we'd get is PS1 and minis on PS3. PS Plus as a service was always about the games. Now they've made it a requirement for online play you mistakingly think these games are the bonus. They're not. We pay for access to the games via the subscription. They're not free so before running your mouth and giving it the big one, please educate yourself before calling people out.

SurgicalMenace964d ago (Edited 964d ago )

Well sir, I too have been a PS+ member since it's inception and own well over 3,000 games on PS3, 1200 of PS4, and close to every game available on PS5. I speak from a supporting standpoint and I'm strongly against people who do more talking with their mouths than their wallets.

If you've not invested into the best experience possible, then why should your opinion be acknowledged? Plus is 70 dollars a year that equates to about $6 dollars a month....what do you expect to get, a choice?🤣

The day that beggers become choosers is the day that gaming dies. How many of the new releases have you purchased? If the answer is none, be happy with what is given. When you're playing the latest, you have little concern for the hand outs. Just a thought, champ.🤣

Kurt Russell964d ago

Personally I am looking forward to Hell Let Loose. I don't think I would have dived in with a purchase for that one, but I am dead curious to play it... I am hoping it is just the kind of MP I have been hoping for since R6S went doolally.

KyRo964d ago

Yeah it looks great for sure. I've watched a few people play it on PC and I'm interested to know it's transitioned to console.

outsider1624965d ago

Yesss!! Played HLL open beta and it was amazing. The immersiveness, the one bullet shot, you can't just go running around shooting like in CoD or Bf.

NoFanBoy965d ago

The beta has a low framerate, lag, loads of pop in textures, flickering shadows etc. It felt horrible to control and aim. If they could improve it then there potential.

Majin-vegeta965d ago

Thry are aware.They made a post yesterday

FPS_D3TH964d ago

It’s not really optimized too well on pc yet either. Lots of flickering
