Nah, MK definitely has a better plot. You can't get the kind of stuff I just talked about from a Street Fighter game.AppleQueso wrote:Street Fighter, KoF, etc all have just as much going on in them, the only issue is that those games are japanese and most of the juicy plot stuff doesn't ever make it over here.Gamerforlife wrote:Nice to see I'm not the only person who is into MK's story and characters.

Sweet! The Pit is back, and the two guys in the background now duke it out. And Deadpool is back as well. Nifty how when you knock out a partner they get auto knocked in to it. It looks like Reptile's invis may be not quite as good, since your opponent can see you by the ripple effect. Althoguh it also means you can see yourself as well, but I don't think that was an issue in competitive play; the good people just knew how far he'd move based on inputs. And I enjoyed watching Mileena's grab and neck ravage. And then she tears off his head and eats his face.

Definitely a HUGE step up from MK vs DC graphically

Dude, I looked really close at that picture of Scorpion spearing Johnny Cage. Apparently some of Scorpion's body damage includes the flesh being torn away from his skull. Awesome.
