    There is some form of lag, but it is quite playable, I have found.

    DLed it tonight and it is good. Quite a steal for $10.

    Played several matches of MK II and only had lag troubles on 2 matches.
    You don't have to be smart, you don't have to have all the facts, you just have to be confident.

    Got it 2 days ago and they are well emulated. The online is kinda fun. It is kinda laggy but not so bad it renders the game unplayable. Not bad

    My thought on "classic" Mortal Kombat 20 years later is essentially:

    MKII (Genesis) = great. Everything else = aged terribly. IMO of course.
    "One of the ways I gauge a DS game is by recharges. "...Tycho (Penny Arcade)

    Besides the arcade version, the Genesis version of MKII was my preferred version as well. I played the demo of MK 1 and 2 on the 360 and found the controls to be a bit unresponsive for both. This may just be because I'm a bit rusty though.

    so I was all excited about downloading this the last few days, finally got some time off work and got a points card and downloaded it...

    Played it offline for a bit, beat mk1 with scorpion...decided to try online.
    keep in mind I have an amazing internet connection,

    the game played like I had the slow motion button on my NES advantage going the whole time,(only online offline is fine) no matter who I played with it was painfully slow and unplayable.

    is it always like this? or was it just a really bad night?
    only like 2 other people were in any of the lobbies, and one jackass would never start a game, he'd just sit in the lobby with his thumb up his ass.

    Are you playing the PS3 or 360 version?

    I've noticed some varying (some perfect connections and some laggy ones) yet overall acceptable delay in the online games on the PSN version but not across all games and none that made me feel like online was unplayable.

    I've seen some other complaints about connectivity but they never seem to specify on what system.

    I picked this up the other day for 360 and have been very satisfied. For those with lag it must be connection related, as I have yet to play an online fight with any lag. Great deal for $10.
