Gamespot's Best and Worst of 2004

Gamespot has posted their Best and Worst Games of 2004. The have the Best in Class Section, Special Achievement Awards, Dubious Awards, Genre Awards, Platform Awards, Game of the Year awards and Readers' Choice Awards. Mortal Kombat: Deception Won Best Fighting Game. The Game of the Year and Readers Choice has not been released yet. Check back for the updates. I'll post them.

::From the Gamespot article::
The game's online component is easy to jump right into, and with the additional Archon-like chess mode, you can drop the game's fighting engine into something a little bit deeper. The game's characters use a wide variety of fighting styles, and have special moves that need to be feared and respected, especially because many of them open you up to the game's combo system, which can be very damaging. But the game balances these combos out pretty nicely with an intuitive combo-breaker system that gives you three "get out of jail free cards" per match, letting you get out of a combo or juggle before things get too serious.

Violent Video Games

Rod Blagojevich, Governor of Illinois has started a web site, SafeGamesIllinois.org. This is his proposal to ban minors from buying violent or sexually explicit video games. Their is a top 10 list of The Most Violent and Sexually Explicit Video Games, Mortal Kombat: Deception is Number 5 on the list. They don't want these games to stop begin made, they only want adult to be able to buy these games. I don't think it is video games or TV that makes kids violent. I think it is how their parents raised them.

Shao Kahn in Deception?

MortalKombat.org found an interesting image of Mileena fighting Shao Kahn. This image is from The Chicago magazine Network Eye Magazine.

::From the MortalKombat.org article::
The question that really we must do to us now is: Shao Kahn will be one of the new personages of MK Deception Gamecube version, or is hidden in the versions PS2 and X-box? Although to many are not going they to like the answer, my opinion is that he is an exclusive personage of the Gamecube version that will leave, at the moment, only in the USA and Canada.

1up.com Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks Preview

1up.com has posted a new preview of Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks. They have also posted some new images from the game.

::From the 1up.com article::
One of the key ways Paradox is letting players work together is by having them play on the same screen in an approach similar to the 3D Gauntlet games. "The co-op mode is played with both players on the screen at that same time without a split function," Himmerick says. "We worked through a lot of ideas for this and a split did not let either player see what they needed to see either vertically or horizontally. A split screen would be far too limiting considering everything the Multi-Directional Kombat System can do. Both players have the same view of action on screen which allows them to perform huge team combos, help each other when in trouble, and not get lost in the MK world."

MK: Deception Secret Characters???

MortalKombatOnline.com Forum member 8Cravin_Morehead has posted a thread in their forum stating how to unlock Ashrah, Hotaru for Puzzle Kombat, and special extended moves for most characters in Kombat mode. He is also a member of the Brady Games Forum.

::From the MortalKombatOnline.com Forum::
As a new member of section 8 they have decided to release some of the secrets they have encountered already to the public. it has already been announced on their board so I will announce it here***** Im sorry it hasn't been announced on our board Deadman said he would announce it tomorrow*** Sorry But he gave me the go ahead to announce what I knew on other boards. and thats the following.

Ashrahs Puzzle character, Perform a huge combo either a 3x or 4 times combo I think even a 2x combo will work at hells foundry. If you notice the bird that flies over flies in both directions. This is not random you can figure out when the bird comes out usually when you get ready to recieve a bomb. The bomb is very usefull in creating a combo for this to work. When the bird flies over towards your opponent perform the combo. If you do it correctly (and keep in mind this isn't very easy) the bird will swoop down and circle your opponents head thus making the bird attack you.Which will result in you unlocking Ashrah as a puzzle character.

Hotaru's Puzzle character Same thing as above except at Sky temple. Make sure to perfomr the big combo using yellow blocks. You'll need to do this when the lightning strikes. so watch it carefully. If you notice on the loading screen you see Hotaru fighting scorpion. This is where we got the info on what color blocks to break. Yellow cause of scorpions costume. Doing this correctly will unlock Hotaru as a puzzle character.

Ther have been several people claiming to know extra special moves but they aren't very special but evidently alot of people dont know about them or do but dont realize them. so I will list them and what they do.

Sub-zero's Cold Shoulder. If you do this correctly sub will slide farther and faster than when done normally. His cold shoulder move is back, forwad + circle. Instead of tapping back press back for a split second than tap forward + circle and hi will slide farther and faster whoopy do right.

Ashrah's spin cycle. Most of you know this but for those who don't do her spin cycle normally than after you press X keep tapping X repeatedly ands she will continue to spin almost 10 seconds more than she usually does.

Darrius' Twisty Kick. This on like the cold should just allows darrius to slide further. Press back for a split second than tap the rest and he will glide further.

Shujinkos Burning Fist. If done correctly shujinko will slide further as well press down for a split second than tap back + Triangle.

Kobras flaming fist. Same as shujinkos and it produces the same result. Some also say his double kickflip move is special too but its not but for those who don't know just tap up + circle twice. Like Johnny cage's move in Deadly Alliance.

Noobsmoke's Slide punch. I don't know the name but this is the move where both noob and smoke pair up and slide punch you. If you press the first button for a split second instead of tapping they will slide further.

Scorpions backflip kick. This move will allow scorpion to backflip further if you press the first button instead of tapping it. It just goes a little bit further nothing to be amazed about.

There are more moves like this that are just improved ones from their original specials all you gotta do is just experiement with pressing instead of quickly tapping to get what you want. As far as Jade's low projectile it is only an ONLINE GLITCH and can only be done online. SO hope this clears everything up goodluck with everything and if you have any questions feel free to ask Good Day!


p.s As far as the present goes it does nothing so far. its just developer humor. For sh*ts and giggles. Just like when you throw Havik off the sky temple he says oh man this is gonna suck. Or when you throw Ermac off he says suck it or sucker.

Hope all this helps Ill answer any questions I can. This is just what I know and have gathered from deadman. He will post on this tomorrow and I will post anything else I may have missed here tomorrow as well.

More MK: Deception Characters extended moves

I found something cool on the Brady Games forum. Brady Games Forum member SURoutthere has posted that all characters have extended moves. He posted some of the moves on their forum. I haven't tested the because I can't right now, I broke my wrist and my arm is in a cast. So I can't play the game. I don't know if these work or not. But if some one could test them and let me know I would appreciate it.

::From the Brady Game Forum::
P means that U have 2 pause for a split second

Sub-Zero- back P forward plus circle

Ashrah- down up plus x, then press x continuosly

Darrius- back P forward plus circle

Ermac-down P back plus square

Kobra- down P forward plus square

Scorpion- back P forward plus square [I'm not sure if this makes the spear go any faster but it might]

Scorpion- do his flip kick with a P in between the buttons, [lengthens the distance of flip kick]

Shujinko- He can do his flaming fist much faster with a P in between the buttons.

Shujinko- P in between buttons with his spear 2 make it go faster

Raiden- down P back plus square

Kabal- down P forward plus square [simply makes kabal lean back a little further when doing his projectile]

Ashrah's Spin cycle. If you keep tapping X after doing this move she will continue to spin for almost up to 10 seconds longer.

Shujinko's Flaming fists. Which is down back plus triangle. Instead of tapping Down press down for a second and then tap back + triangle and Shujinko will slide further than usually.

Kobras Burning Fists. Same thing goes for Kobra as is does with Shujinkos flaming fist move. Just press down instead of tapping it. His double kick flip everyone should know its just up + Circle and again.

Darrius's Twisty kick can be done where he will go further. Just press back for a second than tap forward circle.

Scorpion's Backickflip is the same with the rest of these people instead of tapping press the button for a second than tap the rest he will backflip kick a further distance.

Sub-Zero's cold should will go further than it normally does if you press back for a second than tap forward you will see sub slide all the way across the screen and faster.

Noob-Smoke's move where they pair up and slide punch you (sorry forget what its called) can be done the same way as the above by pressing the first button for a second instead of tapping. They will slide further resulting in them being able to punch you from a further distance.
