	I like it when I convince one of my friends to play MK with me. Sure beats the computer. But it's annoying having to explain everything to them. And when I forget something, they think I did it on purpose to cheat -----signature----- "This battle will be your last!" - Kitana ~Proud fan of Kitana, Subzero, Li Mei, and Jade~ Member of the MNNC Kitana, Li Mei, and Jade for MK9!

	I don't see how that would work, coz I have a friend that I have known for over 16 and a half years now and we have been playing MK ever since MK1's debut, now to this day we still play MK 1 - MKSM and even against each other and nothing and I repeat NOTHING has ever gone wrong between our friendship. -----signature----- MK_FTW: Please call me Daniel.

	IMO fighting games bring out good competition among friends. If you go Online you can even make new 1's. Also my neighbor/friend got really good at fighting games because we would just spar(Fight in vs. mode). It wouldn't matter who won as long as both of our skills got better. -----signature----- I rather die on my feet than live on my knees.

	It really depends with who in the end. I've had awesome, fun fights with quite a few of my friends, but I ended up with one instance when I promised myself I'd never play with him again. You see, we had both been playing MK since the very first game came out. We were both skilled - well, not really. Sorry to say, but it felt as though he had never played, EVER. It was an online match at this point, but there was no lag on either side. He REALLY wanted to challenge me, so I thought it wouldn't be a bad idea. I had my headset so we could still talk. It would be fun! How wrong I was... Mileena was my character of choice since this was for Deception. I... I wiped the floor with him. Literally. He was so bad that I had to LET him hit me and at one point he noticed and I blamed it on lag. Now you might tell me "Gee, Maria, that would have pissed me off more than losing!". You're right, of course, but he had started to whine long before I let him land hits on me. First he'd whine in my ear that it wasn't fair because he had been playing MK all his life. (Nevermind the fact that... so have I!) He almost started crying (I'm NOT kidding. Both adults here!). And then he started to complain about how embarrassed he was a GUUURL had beat him at Mortal Kombat.... Say what? I ended up making an excuse to disconnect. But yes, chose your friends carefully when playing any fighting game because you soon find out who the sore losers are and who's in it for fun.

	I dont get to fight my friends. They always prefer playing other games like Rockband or Halo since that way everyone gets to play and really I'm the only one in the group that plays Mortal Kombat. Well I did lend mkvsDC to one of them, but I think he was more in it for the Achivements. Oh wait, he did say he wanted to know what the story was about and he does own other MK games, but he doesnt actually talk about it, unless I bring up something from the game. Which doesnt happen at all. I imagine though that if we did play one of my friends would make it his goal to beat me at least one round. The others would most likely just have fun with it. Note this is just from me observing how we play Halo 3 together. -----signature----- Head over to my Micro hero topic in MK.G.D. for the latest Micro heroes from your favorite MKs.

	Videogames that pit players against eachother sometimes test their friendship. And I've had my share on this. It depends on how we can really accept the fact that "It's only a game" In MK's instance, we know the feeling of winning and losing to your friends, whether they're real life or e-friends. Some of us just see the fun of it, others see it a bit more serious cos it's not only a game for them. Anyway, I've lost and keep losing "friends" from the above cases. But I should repeat to myself that "It's only a game" more often, before I hit the Delete "button". And on a sidenote, co-op games are way more Fun. Competition has its Consequences. -----signature----- The Only Treasure In The Life We Live Is In The Measure Of The Love We Give. http://ps3trophycard.com/cards/sindelia/card3.png http://card.mygamercard.net/sindella.png

	My friend thinks MK is OK. He's not great at it, but he's learning. He beat me as Sektor with Sub-Zero (though I did go a bit easy on him) He sometimes gets annoyed when I keep telling him to get MK. He says it's a good game, but they are better games out there. -----signature----- I am Sektor, Grandmaster of the Tekunin.
