This thread has been linked to the game 'Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance'.
Well I picked this game up on Friday and I've been playing the hell out of it. ;-))
Its an excellent game - finally goes back to the roots that got its fanbase ! No more of those crappy friendships and babalities.
So far I've opened loads of the coffins in the Krypt and earned all the extra characters, most of the alternate costumes and most of the extra arenas.
Like the way the test your might mini game has been brought back - that and the test your sight games are great little additions to the fighting. :-)
So whose bought the game ? Anyone got any favourite characters they like to use ?
My favourites are...
Kitana
Scorpion
Nitara
Also found that I'm pretty good with Kano and Kung Lao. ;-)) Don't like Drahmin much though - think hes as crap as he must smell (seeing as there are rot flies flying around him constantly).
Anyway, on with the playing. ;-) Anyone who hasn't got the game - this definatly restores the faith in the series and manages to be a bloody good fighting game (sorry about the pun).

I once was stoned while playing the sims, and managed to save it. A few days later when sobered it was so funny to see what I had named the sims and the house I had made.

thanx mate
I have to agree that MKDA is a very fun game. Which is what games should be right?..? Fun.? I cant see it being any better than soul caliber 2. Im not sure if it is even better than soul caliber 1. The fatalities in Deadly Alliance seem abit tame if you ask me... especially quan chi's... i was like "Oh my god!, Ed Boon, youve turned into a goon'"
I like the two mini games, they effectively change the pace of the game somewhat and its good that you can turn them off. Have done MAX sight chellenge, but have yet managed to complete 'steel' in the test you might challenge.
A nice game you can play when you have 4+ mates playing. Get copious amounts of spirits, a shot glass and MKDA + 2 controllers. best 2 out of 3. Whoever loses the game takes 1 shot. If they recieve a fatality its turned into a double and if a flawless victory is ahcieved then its a triple. This game gets good about 20 rounds in, none of the players know what they are doing and it leads to some of THE craziest matches ever seen in any beat 'em up.
Try it out if you have the chance. Anyone got games that they could share?

If I remember rightly TI is Raiden and UR also has a character but I can't remember which one. I believe gamefaqs.com has a guide to each Koffin and what lies behind each door so you might want to check that out. Personally I enjoy the surprise and knowing what lies behind each door would spoil the game for me.
what kofin numbers are the secret charactors it i have nitara but cant fin any one else
Soul Calibur 2's out in the arcade, kids. Go have 40 goes, instead :).
