If it wasnt for MK, their would be no tekken or doa. MK is the one and only fighting game to go up against the assholes who think it was too gory. It didn't stop MK,you can't stop MK. MK is the king of kings.
Agreed.
MK and SF were the first two fighters ever, SF first but SF is dead now unlike MK to all those MK Haters out there.Eat it ha, ha.
Congrats to MK and Midway, don't stop making MK baby!!

Midway doesnt deserve it. Tekken dark resurrection and dead or alive 4 are SO much better.
Please....those games suck balls compared to the MK series.

What are you talking about? Those games are
WAY better fighting games than MK.
I think MK wins because of everything but the fighting.
It's Cool / Dark looking style
Bloody
It has Scorpion and Sub-Zero
Konquest
stuff like that.
Anyway, congrats to the MK devs for the victory.
I beg to differ, they're not online, hardly changed over the years and are too similar.MK and SF are different and more unique for example.Also more fun to play for the casual gamer as well as the hardcore gamer.
And games like UMK3 had great fighting, MK2, MK3 ever play those games?MK:A is just the best 3D fighting MK game right now so far, the lag is the only thing that sucks some times but hey it beats beating the machine over and over like Tekken.No comp, unless you fly which is dumb.Nobody is going to do that, unless they don't have a life and have money to waste.
MK also has storyline over any other fighter, yeah there are some questions to be answered which midway will with their bios coming so.....
Fatalities are MK, darkness is MK, the atmosphere is unlike any other fighter.
Everyone will like something different, but I'm happy MK:A finally got some recognition for a fun game.Who cares if it's the best MK yet or not, it's still better then MK:D is.
But UMK3 owns all right now if you ask me on the 360, there's no fighter better or more fun.I've played it a lot at my friends house.The 4 player winner stays is sweet!!

I'm a casual player, and I can't stand the way MKDA,MKD, MKA plays. The controls are stiff and it doent feel responsive. Also, you have to memorize combos to be a good player. Honestly, I don't understand how people can say mk is a pick up and play game, because it takes a while to get use to the gameplay.
However, Tekken is definitly a pick up and play game in my opinion. The gameplay is very easy to get used to, and the controls feel responsive and it's much much easier to pull off combos. Everything just flows and feels right.
Sometimes I wonder how people can even enjoy what MK has become.
Gotta disagree here, as an online high level player in the past few MK's I seriously do.MK has always been an easy pick up game for just about anyone, Tekken, VF and DOA on the other hand not the case.There's stiffer controls IMO, it's not a fighter anyone can play or the casual gamer.He'll get owned badly, same can be said about MK say online as a noob however as far as the actual gameplay engine, MK is easier to pick up and play.
MK:A's gameplay is vastly improved over MK:D and MK:DA, it's faster, you don't feel like you're walking in mud, and there's more tactic involved with the parries and wake up added.
Also, I heard about the match where Boon beat you apparently....now not for nothing but we all know boon isn't near the best player, yet he beat you.I assure you, I hold my own with onlines best on xbox so to say something like it's not fast or too stiff is not accurrate.MK:D and MK:DA I'll give you that to a point, but not MK:A.Mastermalone the guy that went to E3 earlier this year also said this, he said it was faster, better and more responsive then MK:D was.I couldn't agree more, it is.
Another example is this, I have a friend that's not played MK in years.
I also have proof, I have a friend who's an old MK fan, doesn't have time to play the newer ones.He picked up MK:A on the first day man, after practicing for about an hour or so, he got the idea.I filled him in on the wake up and parries(parries he doesn't use that much) and he was fine.
Tekken, VF on the other hand not the case.They're more complex fighters which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but not a good thing for the casual gamer.
Something nintendo is always telling people with their games as oppose to their compeititors.If I'm making a game, I want to make a game that anyone can enjoy and play not just beginners, not just hardcore players.Everyone is what really matters.
That's why everyone played the old SF's and MKs back in the day more then any other fighter, one of the many reason.It was a game you could pick up and learn fast and easily.I can't say the same about tekken and Vf however.Games like that.
People enjoy Mk because of the overall game and what it's known for over the years, storyline, blood, fun gameplay, best and most interesting characters, insane stages, darkness of it etc.Now on the other end I don't see the hype for tekken, vf and doa when they're hardly changed compared to MK and SF over the years have.I mean hell, tekken and Vf aren't even online yet.Just note, before anyone says frame rates this, frame rates that.DOA had the same problem....yet it's online now for the 360.So, that's no longer a valid excuse as far as I'm concerned.MK, SF, GG, DOA are all online.
