" Only MK I've ever been excited about  It looks awesome "

My opinion on the post-KO hit is essentially neutral. I never really had an opinion of it one way or another.
 
That being said, I don't think there's any negative whatsoever to getting rid of it.

" The little thing called internet would spoil and kill all hype for this game in like 2 days if MK stuck to those tactics. "

Ed is confusing.
 
I really, really want to be optimistic about this game, and even wrote an entire article about BEING optimistic for it...but there's so much double-talk going on that I'm starting to have my doubts.
 
"This whole game is really a fan service game."
"This is the first Mortal Kombat game that we are actively targeting the more hardcore people..."
 
And then I had to cringe when EGM asked him if he'd prefer this game to be respected more by casuals or the tournament players.
 
"Everyone sort of realized that there were some people who couldn't do, you know, [Street Fighter IV ultras], in the midst of a fight. The ones that can do it love it, but when it's all said and done, we want to sell four or five million games."
 
I can't help but worry that he's going to panic and dumb this one down before release.

Actually, I play Akuma, Abel, and Bison.

I just tend to laugh whenever I see unnecessary and misguided rules.

I just can't help but laugh excessively at the decision, that's all.

Reminds me of a tourney going on over at NikeTalk that has a "no cheesing" rule.

It's amusing to watch this stuff play out.

Uh, Seth is middling at best.  His HP and stun are trash and his overall game is average.
