Just wondering... I'm not really sure what all the MK fans are into aside from MK. Is it Soul Calibur? Street Fighter? etc etc? Let me know

I like a number of fighters, other than MK.

Soul Calibur 2, 3

Dead or Alive 1, 2, 3

Tekken 3, 4, 5

Last Bronx (old Sega/PC fighter, I liked that, shame it no longer works on my PC)

Virtura Fighter 2 & 3 (haven't played the rest)

Fact I:- #1 MK Fighter = Mileena
Fact II:- My usename has nothing to do with the actual Red Dragon clan of MK
Fact III:- Most favourite MK game ever is Mortal Kombat Deception
Fact IV:- #1 Video game = Grand Theft Auto IV

Though I'm not Fan of any other Fighting Game than Mk, I rented a copy of Virtua Fighter 5 on Ps3 just to see what the next gen of fighting looks like. And though I never liked Vf I must say I was impressed by its graphics & detailed characters. It has about 20 characters old and new ones and each one of them looks great esp Sarah tongue

When I'm not playing UMK3 I'm playing (in order of frequency) 3s, HF, VH2/VS2, and VF4e (don't have a PS3 for VF5).

MK's the only fighting game I play, but I was really good at Time Killers back in the 90s.

This might sound barbaric, but other fighting games really don't interest me because you can't kill your opponent in them.

It's a cool game, but my problem was this. I was horrible at playing it.

Sadly, that's another cool game I was horrible at too.

Well, you have some time to practice on them now since MK vs DCU you won't really be killing anybody.

I like the old arcade fighting games like Street Fighter,Tekken,etc.
But Mortal Kombat has just stood out from them.I've been playing it since I was like 5.
I'm also fond of DoA and Soul Calibur.
And of course the DragonBall Z games! happy

I decide their fate.
If they will stay in this world.
Or be destroyed.
Either way it's good exercise.

Tekken would be a good substitute if you want to fight.
