So who's buying?

Looking forward to this.

 

[Sebastian]

I heard its not HD..

 

[Ex-Parrot]

I'm buying. Unless I hear that the controls are fubared or something in early reviews this seems like a no brainer purchase for me.

 

[krec9]

i'll be getting this

Same, just not sure if it will be tomorrow or a bit later down the line. So Much to play at the moment.

MKII is still the greatest MK of all

I hope the 360 version has better on-line. If not ill wait till it is either fixed or goes on sale cheap if I can only play local MP.

Well that sucks. I was gonna download this this week but if it keeps getting bad reviews, I think I'll save my money.

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

that's tempting just to play MK 1 & 2 again

 

[Shropt]

Woah, that second review is horrible. Wow, simply wow.

 

[cokebabies]

Yikes.

I'm truly disappointed, as I was really looking forward to this. I don't know how much DLC stuff gets worked on, but hopefully they can get rid of a lot of these problems.

I didn't plan on online multiplayer at all, but the footage was laughable. It looked as sluggish as MK1 on Game Boy.

 

[speedy485]

So did anyone try to download the 360 version?

PS3 version (online) is very and i mean VERY slooooow!!! Heads up guys!

Also, there is no extras at all! no HD, no replays, no spectator mode, no challenges, nothing!! (only trophies/leaderboards) pretty lame if you ask me.

I mean look what Capcom did with 3rd strike. Now that's what i call fan support! WB interactive or whomever made this ______ port should've been taking notes.

Yet look what Capcom did with MvC3 and look what WB did with MK9...

 

[speedy485]

Well I bit the bullet on the 360.

Good news: Offline, all 3 games play great. UMK3 seems to have some sound issues, though. Volume has to be turned up a lot more.

Bad news: Online is garbage. The game runs at half speed for some reason. MK 1 plays the best online for whatever reason.

Great game if playing offline, but this game was definitely thrown together with very little love. QA was either non existent or not taken seriously. Ed Boon should be ashamed of himself for this "Kollection".

Well, I never played MvC3 but, I really liked what WB did for MK9 though, props for that! .. But still, you gotta admit that they did drop the ball with this Kollection.

 

[Nacho]

Oh well, 10 bucks back in my pocket. What a shame I was realy looking forward for this too.

 

[Darth_Fatso]

I don't care about online but is the offline gameplay good on the PS3 version?

Well, if you're not going to play this game online (ever) and if you're satisfied with the bare bones arcade versions of these games, then go for it.

I think I will then. I'm not an online gamer and I seemed to have misplaced my original SNES copies of MK1 and UMK3 so this will be a nice replacement I suppose for only $10. Thanks
