OK. the graphics are "fantastic" and the fighting "feels right" but because the publisher wants to actually sell the game (unlike any other game... NOT) it's desperate!? WTF does that mean? I remember you guys saying soul calibur was "desperate" in a podcast months and months ago. And you are making fun of the story. Does your Beloved mortal kombat have some oscar worthy story that I am not aware of? Is the inclusion of DC comic charactors (admitted by all of you to be inferior to marvel charctors) not a desperate grab for attention? Please just admit it. You weren't going to give this game a fare shake no matter how fun it was ( and it is).
