Why do MK fans have such a habit of looking at the past rather then the future??? Sure the old MK's were classic's but nostalgia has a funny way of making things look better then they were.
I will admit with the exception of a few characters who were cool (Kenshi and Bo Rai for example,) there were allot of stinkers who were just plain unneeded, but with each new game the characters we know and love changed and evolved not to mention every once in a while a new character was pretty cool. We wouldn't have the awesome evolved versions of Sub Zero, Scorpion, Reptile, ect we have today without the new games.
However, characters like Sonya, Jax, and Cage, if not for the fact they were part of the first crew, don't really have much going for them. Their about as cliche as you can get. The cocky jock w/ glasses, the way to cliche black guy "awwww yeah," and the lame blonde whose about a 2 dimensional as you can get. I think Armeggedon did a good job in demonstraiting why characters like Kano and Sonya need to go the kyript. So there is a balance you must find between keeping MK like the classic MK world we know and love while at the same time moving it foward.
Ha, Ha the question of all time MKO or should I say the million dollar question....
I agree with you dude, but sadly most MK fans will bitch about the most retarded things sometimes. Nuff said.
