C'mon, that's a little harsh. MK wa the only game at the time to NOT be a street fighter clone. It used real actors for motion capture, to good effect, the music was definately a step up from the ultra crap SF2 soundtrack you used to hear repetetively allover the acrades, not to mention, when they wanted a MK sequel, they actually made one, not just one of 1000 versions like SF2 had. And hey, what...you don't like blood?
I don't hate SF, but I don't really see how anyone could say that MK 1-3 were anything but superior to SF2.
I myself thought the MK series fell downwards after Ultimate, although, I've not played the latest title yet, admittedly it does look good.
RE: MK rpgs?
Not sure what you mean...the "quest" modes on deadly alliance were for training purposes weren't they? I mean, as long as you still have the one on one fighter AND that, I don't see why there'd be need to complain.
They did, however have a few spin-off games, the TERRIBLE sub-zero side-scroller was just a chore to play...Special Forces wasn't a BAD attempt at a different style of game, but it wasn't great.
The new title "Shaolin Monks" looks excellent, I eagerly await to play it.
My favourites would be:
*Ultimate Mortal Kombat
*Marvel vs Capcom 2
*Time-Killers
*World Heroes 2
Although, I personally prefer the more 3d fighters like the series stared by "soulblade", the tekken series (from 4 onwards especially), I actually loved sonic fighters, dead or alive is pretty cool too...
