deserter goose...get it! I got it day one, and quickly squashed the game out of noglastia factor! Also easy to max it in achievements/trophy-wise. That's my opinion...400 points for 3 arcade ports of MK games.
 
[quote name='Deserter Goose']Is MK worth the $5? Seems like I've heard nothing but bad things about it, but that price is tempting the heck outta me.[/QUOTE]

It really all depends on how you feel about the Mortal Kombat games. Best I can tell, they're just straight ports. If you loved them when they were new, you'll likely still love them now.
 
[quote name='Friend of Sonic']Aww, so I guess the Cyber Monday list in the OP is complete? Some great deals, but I already own half of them.[/QUOTE]

A scan finds nothing more.

:cry:
 
[quote name='Spylon']A scan finds nothing more.

:cry:[/QUOTE]

Thanks for running the scan. Wasn't expecting anything, but nice to know for sure.

Downloaded BG&E, demoing MKAK again.
 
Well, some of y'all may not be pleased, but I'm diggin' the Cyber Monday sales. Good discounts on some quality titles. And I'm finally getting Risk Factions after the umpteenth sale on it (but finally down to 75% off). Still debating MK Kollection though.
 
I said it before in this thread, and I'll say it again. The ONLY reason to get MKAK is if you have people to play it with locally. They've said they're going to patch it 12/6, but who knows if that will actually happen. Currently, the online is UNPLAYABLE in all three games and the single player AI is cheap as hell to the point of not being fun. The achievements are also glitchy... I had to play through the awful mortaro / shao kahn fights in UMK3 THREE TIMES because the achievement refused to pop. My friend had to play MK2 twice to get that one.
 
It's a bit late for this notice, but if someone else hasn't already mentioned it, it's worth noting that Bejeweled Blitz Live is included with retail copies of Bejeweled 3.
 
[quote name='Deserter Goose']Is MK worth the $5? Seems like I've heard nothing but bad things about it, but that price is tempting the heck outta me.[/QUOTE]

If you can get some friends to play it with, I'd say absolutely. I bought it the day it came out on PSN for $10 and I regret it now since my friends that said they would get it never did. Playing single player sucks since it's the arcade edition of the games and therefore the computer cheats every which way it can. It's frustrating to not even be able to complete one game.
 
Disappointing that there's nothing more, but I'm happy for a deep discount on BG&E. I already own it for my PS2, but...I'll buy it again for that price.
 
Eh, I wasn't expecting that "and more" to pop up at all, so I'm not disappointed. It's still a great sale for people who haven't grabbed BG&E, and now I'm contemplating grabbing the MK collection what with the upcoming patch.
 
I've never had an issue with Mortal Kombat AI, but then again I own the full arcade machines sooooo... it's just another day with the games for me. Grabbed BG&E and MK
 
Is the box art for MKAK wrong for anyone else? I only have the demo so far, but it is showing the picture for the new Mortal Kombat that came out earlier this year.

I'm in the beta for the new dash, not sure if that makes a difference.

Beta doesn't matter. The box art has been like that since release. I guess they just decided to default to New MK's boxart.
 
[quote name='iNFiNiTE HORiZON']just BG&E for me then. probably get RE4 HD too, since I have an extra 1600MSP I bought for all these sales, and didnt use any of...[/QUOTE]

Don't forget we have the Holiday sale coming up, usually we get some pretty decent games if I remember correctly.
 
[quote name='KtMack23']I just bought Beyond Good and evil but the download is staying at 0% hmm....[/QUOTE]


It's a 1.6 gb game so if you have a slower internet connection that might be why

I've actually got pretty fast speeds, it started now though. I think my Xbox had a brain fart or something.

Or quite a few people are downloading it right now.

[quote name='MWB']I just bought BG&E:HD from the website for 240.

Cool, I just finished downloading Beyond Good & Evil. Thanks for the heads up.

[quote name='harry hood']Thinking I should pick up some individual tables. How often, if at all, are they on sale?[/QUOTE]
This Fan Appreciation Sale is the first time that any of the FX2 pinball tables have been on sale.
 
[quote name='NoDAK']


This Fan Appreciation Sale is the first time that any of the FX2 pinball tables have been on sale.[/QUOTE]

Not exactly the same, but Pinball FX was on sale for 400 points on 9/21/2009. Long before FX2, but it's complicated like that.
 
Already purchased the 3 table packs for FX2 and BG&E, but still looking at Super Meat Boy and DaVinci for AC:Brotherhood. Is the single player add-on content in AC:B DaVinci worth it? I still have to finish AC:II before I will even start AC:B

Don't know either about Super Meat Boy. Kinda reminds me of N+ and some other level style games that held my attention at first, but then it seemed somewhat rinse & repeat with the challenge level increasing.

My time for thinking is running out. Any thoughts?
 
[quote name='Lonedragon87']is daggerdale worth 600 points? i know for 400 i will buy it[/QUOTE]

The word is no. I can tell you from my own personal experience that Atari at first wouldn't send out review codes for the game till it was released (an attempt to control bad press) and then seemed to blacklist me and didn't send me a review code (almost certainly for having less than positive reviews for two of their XBLA releases prior to that). Also not a good sign.

Thank you very much going to wait sounds pretty bad
 
[quote name='Wint3rSoldier']is beyond good and evil hd worth it?[/QUOTE]

A 20 oz soda and a bag of chips costs more than this game... And worth is subjective download the demo and see if you like it, c'mon son

but a 20 oz soda and a bag of chips is a nice lil snack

and more of a known quality than this game is to me....u kno?
 
Just tried the demo for MK. I know it's been a while since I played it back on the Genesis, but I don't remember it being this hard.

Thanks. That's kind of stupid.

I'm definitely an MK noob, but since these are ports from the ARCADE games and not the SNES/GENESIS games, they are probably more difficult. This is because they were originally designed to eat quarters.
