wow, nice interview, but TMK seems like a really bad reporter. The dude sounds like a fan, we want a reporter. If he had a book with all of the moves he should have looked at them to see who has what moves. Also, whats up with the whining about the exclusives? Of course MK was going to let a big time team like Gamespot unveil the game over a fan site.

Still, awesome review. Hands on from a fan of MK is pretty cool

TMK had the best interview video of anyone at the show, he actually asked questions about things I wanted to know like how many backgrounds (18) among other things.

Yeah his video bugged me. I enjoy listening to him talking and sharing his experience, and I know he's a huge fan and follower of the series over all the years, but his journalism skills failed big time. He goes on to rant about how he loves to report on the game and share the knowledge with fans, and how thats more important than playing the game, yet he contradicts himself by saying all he wanted to do was play the game. He had a hard time remembering things, but if he truly wanted to get info to us he would have brought a pen and paper and started taking down all kinds of notes. If he had chosen to do so we would have a nice chunk of confirmed solid info such as:

1. Intro and Win animations, as well as each character's sayings.
2. Moves list of each character.
3. Accurate fatality descriptions.
4. Super moves list.

How hard would that have been to accumulate over the 2 hours he claimed to have played. Now, I don't blame him for wanting to play the game rather than write down a bunch of stuff, but don't act as if you care more about getting info than just playing the game...and then do the opposite.

Also, the complaining about the exclusives was stupid. Sure, it sucks that he didn't get to take photos, but he should just be happy he was one of the few to actually get to play the game, for 2 hours at that! That's a lot better than photos and can offer a greater deal of details and information to share that others who weren't so fortunate can't. Exclusives happen all the time, because it makes them money, so just appreciate what you have. He just seemed butt hurt that he wasn't the one to get all the publicity and attention. That's not me bashing TMK, because I think he does a good job of trying to spread the news to us fans, but at the same time you can't always be the center of attention. Either way, we got the news and demonstration and some pics and clips...so that's all that should matter if that's what he claims to care about.

With all that said, I do like the video and appreciate hearing his thoughts and excitement on the game.
