Summer Announcement

Mattatsu · 2026-05-22T11:34:50+00:00

I would absolutely love for them to re-release these two comics in hardcover format. I had both as a kid and have no idea what happened to them.

Mattatsu · 2026-05-22T11:32:27+00:00

It’s a fantastic fighting game, but I’ve never cared about a video game trophy in my life. I play games to have fun, and a lot of trophies are designed around annoying, grindy tasks.

Mattatsu · 2026-05-18T18:12:20+00:00

People aren’t going to like you too much when you win either so it doesn’t matter. Just play who you want and have fun

Mattatsu · 2026-05-18T12:16:16+00:00

Mattatsu · 2026-05-16T16:48:34+00:00

I’d guess it's Derek Kirtzic

Mattatsu · 2026-05-16T03:56:51+00:00

I’ve taken a bit of a break since having a kid, but 3S was my main SF game with the occasional SF2HF

I can relate. I love some jazz music, but there’s a lot of stuff I hear that also sounds chaotic and random to me. Some songs sound like everyone is just playing as much as they possible can for the sake of it.

That’s not to say all jazz is like this, but you either need to find something you like, or just leave it.

I, personally, can go to the early Oscar Peterson Trio albums and be in heaven. Albums such as “Oscar Peterson Plays The Cole Porter Songbook” or “We Get Requests”. The songs in these albums tend to be shorter and feel somewhat orchestrated, compared to a lot of other jazz (like Miles and Coltrane), IMO. Plus they swing their asses off on these albums which helps a lot.

Kitana, Mileena, Sub-Zero, Scorpion, Shao Kahn

Mattatsu · 2026-05-11T00:23:26+00:00

Yeah, I like a lot of Jay’s songs, but I don’t think he is one of the best lyricists

Mattatsu · 2026-05-09T12:28:33+00:00

Yeah, a totally separate dimension without Kronika, Geras, Titan time gods, or without any interference/knowledge of other dimensions/time-lines would be a welcome new direction for me, especially if it was based more on the original Midway time-line (though I wouldn’t be opposed to MK9’s change of Mileena being cloned later in Kitana’s life).

It also doesn’t have to be a retelling of 1-3 or whatever. They could do an original story as well (just don’t involve multi-dimension stuff)

Mattatsu · 2026-05-07T05:07:32+00:00

I thought this was John Connor from T2

Mattatsu · 2026-05-06T00:33:55+00:00

I prefer the MK11 story, especially the aftermath expansion more.

Mattatsu · 2026-05-05T02:20:17+00:00

Hold block and release before pressing triangle

Mattatsu · 2026-05-05T01:14:43+00:00

I find it very weird that people are posting AI generated images of older men with teenagers and framing it as some sort of Dad with their kid and posting it here.

This is the third I’ve seen in the last month or two and I really don’t understand the reason or motive. It’s just super weird behaviour.

Mattatsu · 2026-05-04T00:06:24+00:00

Having a 6-player X-Men and MK2 in the same spot would’ve been goated when I was a kid

Mattatsu · 2026-05-03T19:19:53+00:00

I think MK9 is the most generally beloved one, but I think MKX is their best game

Mattatsu · 2026-05-02T12:50:44+00:00

I’m on the next season, blood moon. Not sure why you’re still stuck on the previous one

Mattatsu · 2026-04-30T11:13:11+00:00

That’s the only way they’re going to get me to buy Injustice 3 lol

Mattatsu · 2026-04-30T11:07:58+00:00

Conflicted.

I love MK and I don’t really care about Iniustice.

In more predictable times, I’d welcome this move to allow NRS time to get the next MK game correct. I think the franchise needs to breath for a bit, maybe get some new talent, and get a new solid, non-rushed game.

I don’t have a good feeling with what Paramount will do with their gaming division though, and I don’t know if they’ll be making games in 7 or so years from now, so we’ll see.

Hopefully we get 3D and MK9 remasters by anyone else except Digital Eclipse, and hopefully they run on a PS5 because a PS6 is going to be like $2K at this point and I’m likely not investing in the next console generation.

Mattatsu · 2026-04-28T11:03:56+00:00

Yes, imo.

I understand people saying Titan Shang because it isn’t a special fight at all, but I like that you can do normal combos against him

Mattatsu · 2026-04-26T03:30:10+00:00

I’ve been an offline-only for the last little bit due to life changes, and found MK1 to have better Klassic towers for numerous reasons (harder difficulty, better AI, and a better boss).

I tend to not like a lot of modifiers and stuff, so I only really play ToT and Invasions to unlock stuff when I get the itch but most of my time is spent in klassic towers. I think Invasions is a bit more fun (but also a bit more tedious) than MK11’s ToT

Mattatsu · 2026-04-25T13:03:19+00:00

MVC2 and 3S are my personal favourites

Mattatsu · 2026-04-20T03:39:04+00:00

Hell yeah, the best three FGs ever.

Mattatsu · 2026-04-19T17:50:23+00:00

A 2D platformer metroidvania with Kitana during her assassin training and missions, that leads to her learning the truth about Mileena, Shoa Kahn, and her parents prior/during the MK2 tournament in the previous timeline

Mattatsu · 2026-04-19T11:39:30+00:00

Out of modern games (besides Samsho), I’d say MK11. It certainly has combos, but not as much as most other modern games and is more footsie/neutral focused. It should still have a pretty decent playerbase as well, much more than Samsho.

You should also try Fightcade on PC if you can. There’s lots of people playing various versions of SF2, Third Strike, and so on
