  • Story/Description:
    Quote:
    In the final battle of the first Mortal Kombat tournament, Liu Kang defeated Shang Tsung and saved Earthrealm from domination.

    But in the confusion of a mysterious earthquake, Shang Tsung and his fellow conspirators escaped through a portal to Outworld.

    Kung Lao, who had been posing as a Masked Guard, helped his fellow Shaolin Monk escape the crumbling island. Liu Kang and his allies narrowly escaped with their lives.

    When they returned home, the Wu Shi Academy was invaded by Baraka and his Tarkatan Horde, in an attempt to defy the rules of Mortal Kombat and take Earthrealm by force.

    Although the Shaolin Monks fended off the invasion, Raiden sensed a deeper conspiracy and urged the Shaolin Monks to defeat Shang Tsung in Outworld.

    Will they succeed?

    Or will they succumb to Shang Tsung's evil plot?

    Only YOU can determine their fate!

So thought I :/
He does have kicks but they are special moves, like a flying kick, so no regular kicks like, for example, a normal round kick or just a normal kick. Sad
Maybe I'm just missing something............

What's that suppose to mean? I usually do a full cover in my threads... now I've done like what? 3-4 threads without links and people starts bitching and moaning like kids...

Just so you know...most of my threads are filled with links and pictures, regulars tends to know this...

If a release gets pre reg fast, I want to spread the news... But alright I'll go back to my old habit then (making it full with links and pics) I think there's max 3-4 threads i've done without doing pics/links Smile

You've been on a vacation or something???

*was* fun if you ask me.. im wu shi academy... a fire going on, I took out some of the fires by using a switch (test your might) there was still some fire left, I couldn't find a save, so I went on trying to find a solution.

You can' go anywhere, evry path is blocked by an inviicble wall, same thing in the whole game, reminds me of the days when I was playing SNES/PSX Rolling Eyes

After 20 minutes I gave up.. not me though, the game suddently lockedup when I was near a wall, I just said fuck it... I got fahrenhet to play instead

All the other mk games for xbox sucked monkey ball this one I'd give a 7 in rating..

Single Player

Kung Lao = unlocks Sub Zero

Lui Kang = Scorpion

EDIT: friggin typo's Very Happy

Apparently there's suppose to be more switches and you could jump onto a roof, already tried that, only 1 switch that I could use 1 time, and whenever im trying to jump at a roof SNES wall stops me..

That's cool Sub-zero and Scorpion as unlockables. I was playing Ko-op and I use Kung Lao and there was this one spot over the bridge and there were collumns on the side, some how I teleport and got stuck in the collumn. I was piss because there was no save spot before that. I was stuck there and my partner couldn't do anything.

1st switch on ground, 2nd switch jump up onto the house near where you came into this level so grab where water is falling down off of the house and then go up onto wall top, follow water path to get to the third switch. Can't remember if there are 4 or 5 switches. The hardest one to get to you have to go onto the roof of a house and jump to the roof of another house to climb the tower. That is the last one I believe.

Wait until you get to that other realm. A 3 enemy boss fight that had me swearing but I beat it finally.

well done!!!

It was fun but I got bored with the game fast, seeing GP Force put up the Ninja Gaiden Black thread as well reminded me how limited this game is.

Some of the cut scenes made me laugh though, just so OTT - the start one for example Johnny Cage gets half of his head chewed on by Baraka then miraculously recovers, only for Goro to grab him by the face and smack his head into the floor repeatedly Laughing

I havent played the game much but I have to say the intro was really cool!

Can you play the game through as the unlockable characters then? Scorpion is my fave and it would be great to play single player as him!


May the NFOrce be with you always.

Ott is right,lol.WHen you fight inferno scorpion and kill him,he gives you a T2 thumbs up as he melts down the lava.Very OTT MK stuff.As for playing with others besides Liu and Kung,yeah you can use scorp and sub in the single mode.The others in versus.It was worth it just to finish smokes missions and open up MK2.Playing that is always good.

I'd been playing MK:Deception and MK:Deadly Alliance for an hour or so the other day whilst I was leeching this - I enjoy Deception, that is until I get to a point in the game where im playing against 2 characters one of which is called "noob" the other smoke and both of them hand my ass to me in a brown paper bag. Kind of embarrassing getting owned by a character called "noob". Embarassed

Deceptions a pretty decent game, liked the overly interactive arenas (the foundry and the very tall tower which just begs for you to knock your opponent off the edge) plus the MK Chess and Columns/Tetris style game but I've not been truly hyped by a beat em up since Soul Caliber on the Dreamcast.

After you beat Jade and Melina, back track to where you save before the fight. Now go down the steps to where there are two statues, break it, get in portal. Theen go to the portal where you are in a jungle look a like with a statue. Then feed the tree as you go.

Ok, now I am stuck in Reptile's place with the stupid snake going around in circle. I can't f^&*(&^&* jump on the ledge. What do I do?

Edit: NVM, I use the fist of ruin on the wrong side of the column. Now the column break. man, Reptile was so easy to beat, didn't even lose a drop of health using Kung Lao.

Ok.When you get to the living forest you will see two kinds of trees.The ones with faces on it and the big H&R puff n stuff trees that swat at you.Grab a enemy and toss them at the trees with the faces so they eat them.Feeding the trees opens the way.
