Hi Clement, That is an apped description of the various games. Brief, perhaps, but the basic idea of each game. The MK games always seam to follow the same sort of plot with a slightly different story line and so on. Even MK verses DC has a similar plot, but even weirder than usual. Although, i

Hi, Actually Mortal Kombat 1 and Tekken 1 came out at roughly the same time period. I was still in high school, say 93 or 94, when MK came out. Tekken came out perhaps a year or so later. I know this as both games were largely talked about in school at lunch time when various gamers chatted ab

One can't button mash their way to success through 2d fighters. New MKs, tekken and practically all 3d fighters have characters which are really well suited to button mashers (maxi in sol calibur, law in tekken). SF and the capcom/snk series require lots of skill and precision. Tekken is fun and

Actually, not true. MK came out in 93, and the original tekken came out in 95. So it wasn't that far apart. And let's be fair. MK does have its pluses... I can't deny that deception was a pretty good game... gameplay wise, even though none of the characters performed a single move from the actu
