Yeah, I'm not a fan of Mortal Kombat at all. Never was really. It was just so... ugh. I'm not sure what it was going for with that fighting system, but SF beats it in the simple anything goes comboing, and Killer Instinct certainly beat it in the super complex many different types of predesigned comboing method. SNK is a company I still know best for the only SNK game I have, Crystalis. I wish that the reborn SNK would reaquire the rights to that game from Nintendo (since they did such a terrible job porting the game to GBC, I think the technical term of the way they made it easier would be called "wussifying") and continue that game as a series. That, and the Crystalis main character (who remains nameless, the so called default name when you don't give the character a name being "S N K" and all) could be in a future SNK vs Capcom game. Speaking of which, I wish that the next incarnation of Capcom vs SNK wouldn't JUST be their fighting game characters, but rather just like Marvel vs Capcom or SNK vs Capcom for Neo Geo Pocket Color, in that EVERYONE is there, from Megaman to Arthur.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
