Well this is kinda pointless because my friend and I were arguing about some stupid crap. He wouldn't see my point that fighting games have short, choppy, quickly thrown together stories. So he made me get an account here because he didn't think I would post my thoughts here.

So if you're easily offended by this, don't read, it's not my problem if you don't agree, in fact I don't care if you don't agree.

I've never really been a huge fan of the fighting genre, I've been more of a fan of RPG's. For one, RPG's set you imagination up with detailed stories, minus a few crappy ones we won't mention ((cough Fable cough)) Also I tend to like the idea of my mind being forced to think of strategy on how to defeat someone. Like the boss is ice, fire beats ice... crap like that. Yes I am aware that fighting games need strategy as well, but not the type that I am interested in. No I'm not one of those people that go around saying "Bow to RPG's" I'm more of the kind of person that believes, "To each his own."

People don't get RPG's that's their problem, not mine, don't like an RPG more power to you.

If you enjoy RPG's cool, good luck to you. All in all, I believe Fighting games get old way too quickly and no one really plays them for the story line. I've had Final Fantasy 7 for about 6 years and I still play the game. I've probably beaten it 5 times now, and each time I play it I learn something new. Same goes for Final Fantasy 8 only different amount of time owning it ((obviously)) Now I will agree that Final Fantasy 9 blew I own it but I've only played it through once, the story on that wasn't really my interest.

With all this said, I do like Mortal Kombat to an extent, I'll play it, but probly grow bored of it after a month and decide that I need a new game. Wow, I've had a lot to say.

Please don't post stupid comments such as "RPG's suck, and so do you." That's a bit immature and below even a five year old. I could have said MK sucks, but no I said that it's a decent game and deserves it's share of credit.
