I' am going to get mortal kombat deception ( i think)

To me this is great, because i' ve played all the mortal kombats their were and when it first came out it was a fun game to play. but as the other one came out i complete stoped playing the first and so on and so. now here is the problem once deception comes out am afraid that i' ll stop playing the last one. the last one to me was the best and i dont wont to let it go. but i really want the next one so am kinda stuck on whether i play the best one so and not get the other or go ahead and get the next one which will probaly have me forget about the other one what should i do. help me daroosh

Well, your dilemma seems to be that you like anything Mortal Kombat.

So, why can' t you keep both?

Why do you have to stop playing one to play the other?

Don' t despair...this can be worked out.

I can' t wait to get this game.

When is it out in the UK?

I' ll get it eventually. I snapped up Deadly Alliance for an old skool kick and really enjoyed it. Well, for the most part. The gawd damn giant ogre thing was just a complete pain in the ass. It seems the Dragon King is going to be as annoying if not more so in Deception but the other modes should keep the game fun. Chess Kombat has the potential to be an ace multiplayer game. It' s all practice for when i get my X-Box online too so I can kick some human asses.

daroosh if i buy the next i know for sure i' am going to forget about the other one.

Well, then get the new one and play it like there' s no tomorrow...

Just keep the first one until you decide to stop playin' the new one...this may be years, but it will eventually happen.

You might as well keep both, as they are different enough to enjoy both.

im not that interested.

teenage income requires me to pick and choose, and mkd is not my choice.

Well, then get the newer one...it' s got both a chess and puzzle mode to make things even more interesting.

didnt you already say to get the newer one?

I dunno whetehr I want this or not. I mean DOA:Ultimate is around the corner and all.

Well I rented it, here are my impressions:

If you are anything like me, you thought Deadly Alliance didn' t really feel like mortal kombat. Deception brings back the feeling of the old school MK' s, but with the newer interface we' ve come to expect. The fighting system is awesome. There are certain levels that have say a grinder or a cliff that you can knock someone into mid-round. So, you have to be careful not to get stuck there-- or if you are low on health, try to get your oponent there for a quick round win.

The Konquest mode is pretty much a training course, but that' s good b/c some people need that kind of thing to get all the small details down.

The online mode is outstanding. If you just want to fight an actual other person and talk some trash while you do it, this is the way to go. It is literally as lag-free as you are going to find(and I' m playing the PS2 version). I still haven' t been disconnected or seen a single moment of lag. You can choose in a lobby who you want to challenge, and you can do so based on latency. So, you really do not have to worry about lag--and I only stress this b/c that is very important in a fighting game.

Sorry, that got a bit long lol

I' m usually not into fighters, but I' m gonna give this one a rent.
