SC2 is a lot more deeper, the gameplay aspect of SC2 is what gave it its good rating most likely... MKDA had a superior storyline, cast of characters, actual finishing moves, and some of the stages in MKDA looked better than the SC2 ones... the graphics aren't really awesome in MKDA compared to SC2(I mean on Xbox at least), their jaws are pretty square looking on MKDA and the facial animantions are better on SC2(on xbox)... the characters have unique voices on SC2 also... so I could see SC2 getting a better rating.... I like MKDA, but I can see its fault when compared to other fighting games... later

I agree completely. The reason that people can get away with button mashing in SCII is because all the moves can be chained together since they have a purpose, and since it's more deeper in the aresnal they let you play with and more faced paced you can look good while having no idea what your doing. Look at Ninja Gaiden, the game has more moves in an action game then some fighting games. The controls are simple and fluid, giving it easier access to the average gamer. That's the way SC1 and 2 went, and that's why they're held higher then MKD. And next year, if MKD doesn't do what it says, all of this is going to happen again when SCIII comes out.....This belongs in the Virtua Fighter 4 Evo is better then MKD thread in the Deception forums.

Someone said that EGM is biased, alright I'll give you that, but fanboys really should shut up if they can't get their heads out off their asses and see that their are many fighting games better then Mortal Kombat.
