I'm not sure if this would work with an MK game but maybe they should start incorporating branch off titles ok here's the deal

You know how street fighter has so many branch off titles and only 4 main stream titles

Branch off titles
--------------------------
(SF2::C/edition)
(SF2:Turbo)
(Hyper SF2)
(Super SF2)

(SF3 2nd Impact)
(SF3 3rd Strike)

(SF Alpha 1-2-3)
(SF EX) 1-2

Main Stream Titles
--------------------------
(SF1)
(SF2)
(SF3)
(SF4)


Tekken
-------------------------
(5)
(5)dark resurrection


Now what i find is that they benefit greatly with these branch off titles my Thought on this....


1st - It allows them to make more money (allowing for higher buget main stream games)

2nd - It Allows the developers to improve and learn from their past flaws whether that be adding parrys,cancels,reversals and what not

Developing branch off titles is more of an experiment with what works, what didn't work, what features/characters were praised which in turn allows them to incorporate all these praised features into a package and deliver it in their main stream titles


(Example: 1) In SF 2 turbo you may have enjoyed the enhancement in speed to the gameplay.

(Example: 2) In Super SF you may have not liked the music, gameplay, arenas, but liked 1 or more of the new characters introduced in turn allowing that character to be implemented into their main stream game and being 1 step closer to perfection


Do you think MK can benifit from true branch off titles (MK unchained) was more of a port (Your thoughts?) and thx for reading!
