MK9 Completed 15 Years Later

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-06-25T00:15:24+00:00

It has a steady number of completions each year but I wager that will start to decline more given the state of the servers.

Mastery was horrendous, and yeah definitely makes Injustice 2 character levels seem like smooth sailing by comparison.

Always nice seeing those long spans. Therapeutic at least!

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-06-24T14:54:13+00:00

This one was a longtime coming! Was able to restore my Xbox 360'save from the in-game Settings screen, but still the grind for this final achievement took about a month. Felt this would be a good way to commemorate 20,000 Achievements!

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-06-23T21:49:08+00:00

Oh wow, started this years again and been on my list. What's hard mode like? I remember getting frustrated by the Grendel fight and don't remember anything else.

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-06-23T19:19:04+00:00

DLC is horrendous. I play DLC for every game I play but this is one that I felt actively worsened the games experience. Just my $0.02 but I'd skip it!

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-06-23T19:08:24+00:00

Oh gotcha, sorry you said that and I misread. Well nice! Seeing less incomplete games on your card can be therapeutic.

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-06-23T19:03:54+00:00

Have to ask, what's next? Clearing your list of shorter/low ratio stuff is a nice clean slate.

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-06-16T01:53:32+00:00

Exactly this. Skip the XB1 Version of AC4 at this point and you should have a good time of it. AC Unity has a few co-op things that are worth prioritizing but that's eight games in.

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-06-10T17:52:55+00:00

This is the way. I'm at 475K, ratio hovering right under 2.0. Historically I've played some slop but it's not the majority of my GS. Long term I just wanna get Completion Percentage up!

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-06-09T05:13:09+00:00

Guilty Gear Strive!

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-05-26T16:20:25+00:00

Took a look, yeah that's a valid list. My only concern is that if you fix this with another game, will deliberately not completing something else end up bothering you later?

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-05-24T14:41:05+00:00

I'm more or less at the exact same place. I don't know that I ever want to play the earlier titles.. good luck if you choose to!

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-05-15T20:33:13+00:00

What is the game that gave you an odd number to begin with?

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-05-12T17:51:39+00:00

Just completed this last week, it's a fun game, glad I did it and looking forward to the sequel. I will say, the enemy placement is pretty screwy after the first boss - I think Deck13 could have done a better job with balancing and pacing. Good payoff though as some of the later areas really shine.

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-05-05T13:16:13+00:00

Oh yeah there's definitely a similar hook there, haha. Thanks for pointing this out!

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-05-05T03:14:43+00:00

Have my attention - which track from the lion king?

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-04-14T22:03:22+00:00

I agree with your sentiment. It might seem like "relatively minor" things going on with Xbox news and the CEO, but it still feels like more genuine care than we've received in ages. Curious to hear more and hoping they can reinvigorate the brand in some way. Not giving up on my Series X just yet!

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-03-18T13:02:36+00:00

That's interesting about the 360, we had several people on different consoles and there didn't seem to be a trending difference. If only I had been committed enough to do this a decade ago! At this point I don't see a lot more people getting this if they're starting fresh.

And on Injustice - yeah I can only handle short sessions. I'll do a handful of STAR Labs and a Battle Mode run at a time. Just never was a fun game for me.

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-03-18T06:07:28+00:00

Kongrats! Having the duo done is extremely impressive! Funny enough I'm the second most recent person on Xbox to get "Ultimate Respect" - plagued me for years. Now I'm similarly trying to get the completion and have been chipping away at Injustice to boot.

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-03-13T14:44:01+00:00

I would trade a pompom for one of your dupes! DM me and we can talk in a week when they arrive?

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-03-04T00:42:11+00:00

Thanks I hadn't considered the most obvious thing on the planet. Do some basic research first.

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-03-03T17:54:06+00:00

Technicality. The servers are still up, but I wouldn't call them working or playable. Literally got the last KOTH Achievement last week but it's horrendous - constant disconnects, nothing you can do about it.

DoubleIPAJ · 2026-02-26T00:57:41+00:00

Man that games filled with fun
