I'm having trouble playing MKX on remote play; it crashes every time I try starting the game. Has anyone else tried remote play at all?

Having seen the story mode, I have the following to say: {Spoiler}Man, the Elder Gods are still completely useless. I mean, Shinnok escapes twice and they do bugger all about it.
I hope Bo Rai Cho survived. I only really had issue with some of the characters from Deception and would hope that he gets a chance to shine. He sound Russian to anyone else?
Sub-Zero didn't really get to do much. Shame, he's still my favourite.
You couldn't have waited just one damned hour Scorpion?
The Kombat Kids could do with some slight tweaks in their designs, make them a bit more colourful or different outfits so they stand out amongst the rest a bit more. They seem a bit ordinary looking.
Shinnok looked rather goofy. Mind you, his design hasn't really been the best since his creation.
All in all, a much better storyline than last time. No real thundering stupid moments this time although Scorpion deciding to screw over everyone else comes close.

It's more of a hindsight screw-up.

{Spoiler}I love Raiden's attitude at the end, like he just thought to himself "I've had it with these motherf***ing invaders, in this motherf***ing earthrealm" I'd love to see a DC comics costume pack in future - Erron Black - Jonah Hex - Ermac - Constantine - ferrah/Tor - Bane - sonya/cass - Black Canary

Played alot of this game today {Spoiler} Loving story mode though I do wish it was a bit longer. Not a big fan of the whole "Press X not to die" thing they have going but other than that has been very addictive so far. I'm enjoying this whole new generation thing they got going, wasn't to sure about it first but now it feels fine. Currently playing as Takeda and am due to fight Erron Black. Got a feeling Rain and Baraka will show up as DLC somepoint, possibly also Fujin. So yeah..so far so good

I'd like to see people like Sereena, Frost, Rain & Fujin in a later Kombat pack (they're all in as NPCs, so all they have to add is moves)
Also throw in some more themed Skins (Warner movies, DC, World History)

My only comments: -Everyone (especially Hanzo) looks super sweet with middle-aged man beards!! -Takeda (aside from his goofy striped Terry Funk pants to go along with his armored swat jacket) is the best new hero. -It's also nice to note that all the characters (females for the most part) are more covered up and wearing practical attires for fighting. Something I think I missed in Story Mode: {Spoiler}What ever happened to Quan Chi-controlled zombies Stryker and Kabal? They're around for the first fights but never seen again. Are they?

I have to say that I like how MKX's commercially actually looks like a video game commercial instead of a glorified movie trailer.

I know some people hate it, but I actually like Erron Black's sand fatality, particularly since it's less bloody and stands out that way. That said, the pile of sand forms a little quickly, and maybe some blood in the sand would look nice, but overall, I enjoyed it. It kind of looks like it's from a Mummy movie.
