[General Discussion] Street Fighter vs Mortal Kombat

Mortal Kombat is trash. It was fun back in the day, but it hasn't aged well at all (in serious competition, at least). I realize that both sides can say the same thing, but I imagine these stands are made through casual play. MK feels sloppy when I play it. Rapid-punch to uppercut repeat. With Street Fighter and even Guilty Gear I feel like I have much more control over the characters. The gameplay is tighter, responsive, and fluid. In Mortal Kombat, it feels as though you can do the same combos over and over again no matter WHAT skill level you are and still succeed.

The characters also look like butt. Boring designs combined with crappy 3D models make for limp biscuits. I'd rather stare at Chun-Li's thunder thighs in glorious 2D.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Actually, that's not true. Take a peek at SF3 (which should've arrived at or around the same time MK4 did). New sprites for the Shotokan bitches, along with every character. Learn2bash.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
