    I have never played fighting games before and I've heard that Mortal Kombat is the hardest one to start with, but damn, it was worth it. I remember the fighting games with strange sounds and very poor graphics, but this is something different. The graphics and audio is amazing, fatalities are one of the most brutal things I experienced in game industry.

    Excellent! It is better in everything than MK 11 over 9000 times! Shame it has such unworthy
    descendant.. Feels like original WCIII and WCIII Reforged.

    Bad story, bad gameplay, bad customization, bad everything. Both MK9 and MK11 way better than this game.

    Sad:

    -No tag battle. Was really cool feature esp. in Story Mod. -Menu with combos. Pls do not put "spell+block" after each spell it really hurts and makes list unintuitive. With Tremor its really get wild. Makes me still use papper to write them to know how many I have. -Story- I dont agree with your way of humanizing heroes of the game thats originaly is all about ripping

    -Story-

    I dont agree with your way of humanizing heroes of the game thats originaly is all about ripping each other apart. I did not came here to watch B-movie about generations issues.
    In the same time you did a lot better in MKX Comix. Idk why now this is so generic and boring.
    I know WB is a evil corp. but they still should understand that this game is not for kids, who need stories about them being "chosen" ones and savers of universe. All new not-kids character (Aron, Dvora, Cotal, Fera/Thor) are quite awesome tbh, but 4 kids are trash.
    I guess young KungLao now has competitors on the post of most annoying idiot.

    Maybe something wrong with me and I talk about charaster development in fighting game, but thats what it all about - its better to not have a personality to your fighter than to have whinny kid.
    And pls.
    Can we at least not have LOVESTORIES that just come out of nowhere (Black chick and Asian emoboy)

    Hope that next game wont be about some galactic/outerworld enemy with armies of minions (like this hell demons in MKX) and it will be more about hatered in characters, different views and poor anger. We have enough characters to not be in need of minions and space invasions.

    -Characters-
    Scorpion really misses his ripping-off-own-scalp-firebreathing. Give it back in XI.
    And when I play MK I want to play as Scorpion and as SubZero not as some old duchebags, there is really no need in humanizing them this way.
    Sonya. Most sad about her. Girl went from sexsymbol of the game to old grumpy whinny **** Her and Cassie's faces looks trashy idk why you did this to her, but this is shame.

    -Fighing itself-
    Some variations are superior to other, not all characters got well-developed var.
    A lot of characters has var. that almost same, like soomoning variations.

    Xrays are too slow and take too much time, got tired to look through them after 5 times already.
    MK2011 was better in it

    Fatalities and xrays sometimes feel like you went out of ideas. For MKXI moight be cool to have some players competition with ideas I guess,

    Cool:
    NEW MILEENA'S FACE (oh god this is really the best semi-rework evah)
    Annoying charactes like Cage and Blindguy are a lot less annoying when they are old
    Can use stuff in areas.
    Fighting itself feels fluid, wellpaced and mostly well-animated.
    Cool idea with Triborg and mostly satisfying playstyles.

    Excelente juego se pelea! muy bueno gráficos, excelente movilidad, buena banda sonora, gran variedad de personajes, además de nuevos personajes famosos de películas muy interesantes (alien xenomorf, depredador, el asesino de Texas). Muy buenos y variedad de fatalities.
    Este es el mejor juego de esta última generación de juegos de pelea sin duda alguna.
    Lo recomiendo ampliamente.

    cool game, very much. Dynamics, fighting mmm ... fantastic. I advise you to play)) really were a little pad with the campaign, but nothing, and so the game is excellent. The developers have worked on fighting style is not in vain.

    Excelent history mode with very good graphics and creative fatalities.
    Online mode runs well but you gotta have a very good PC to run without lags.
    The special towers are really fun and the best feature in the game.. all the extras makes you want to check in every week even if you got tired of playing it. The characters are really great and all interactions are flawless... propably the

    Esta version incluye todo el contenido que te tenia que venir desde el inicio, y arreglaron el port que tenia en PC. Bueno sacando eso es una buena secuela del 9, mejorando en prácticamente todos los aspectos.

    Es como mortal kombat 9 pero con peor historia, nuevos elementos jugables, un roster diferente y con unos graficos renovados que se le notan los años, aun asi se ve bien

    The best fighting game at the moment. Incredibly epic battles. But it's best to play with a friend, then it becomes at times more interesting. The plot is also quite good, although worse than in the previous part of the game. The only thing that I did not like was the purchase of key characters in the series in a separate DLC, such as Triborg, Bo 'Rai Cho and Goro.

    While the downloadable content is about seven months overdue, and the patches to fix online performance even longer, Mortal Kombat X for PC is better than its even been with the release of Mortal Kombat XL.

    They took out 2 vs 2.
    Graphically beautiful.
    The variants for each character is a nice addition.
    Some mechanics improvement compared to MK9

    Character roster and character design is brilliant. Story provides more depth to mks characters. Gameplay suffers greatly from a terrible input system and spammy nature while being 50/50 heavy creating a less strategic albeit deeper gameplay loop than mk9.

    Для меня во всем слабее, чем 9 часть.
    Не знаю как в онлайне, но в плане компании точно).
    Мне нравится вселенная МК, так что да, я её оцениваю не только геймплейно (хотя геймплейно 9 тоже больше понравилась).

    Как по мне, это небольшой шаг назад после девятки, но тем не менее очень годная игра. Синематик как всегда на уровне.

    This PC version is rubbish! it just keeps closing by itself and on the first attempt the game would not open even though it was on an original dvd

    And you can't put any keyboard button.. say in MK 9 I use WASD to move and ARROW keys to kick and punch However, in the trash of this MK X PC version, it is not

    More of the same. MK 9 had everything but X expands on it. If you didnt played MK 9 you can have funwith it. If you did then you will get tge same. Graphics are not the best but it works.

    Characters designs are really bad and everyone look like each other. It has a half cooked graphic.
    Gameplay and characters are very unbalanced. Also Story is not very well.
    It's not bad but it isn't something special.

    Mortal Kombat XL offers the complete package. All the costumes, characters and stages in one deal. Graphically the game hasn't changed, but with all this content there is a whole lot to do!

    Early adopters may not even blink an eye at coming back for round 2 but for anyone just coming in they will have one of the best fighting games out there and a ton of unlockable content to look forward to.

    The package is massive and chock full of content. The netcode is pretty good, and the single player offerings are nice as well.
