I've been around MK since MK1 and I personally am someone that thinks UMK3 was the best MK game ever made because of the combos and ease of movement/imput. I'm a hardcore classic MK fan and only play the new ones to see the new characters and simply play more mortal kombat. If anything this is the best 3D game since UMK3 (to me) and personally I think it covers just about everything from 1-3 if not more. There was no Cyber-Sub, no x-ray's, no FREDDY, and now in this one there's no Cyber-Smoke (who techniquely doesn't exist in this story timeline for all you story huggers), no MK4 characters like fujin and tanya (who techniquely weren't at all in 1-3), and what the bell tower? What else do you complaining people want other than what YOU want. I want so much more stuff but I don't sit there and get angered or rage quit as soon as someone picks a character that I don't like cuz that would make me a *****. Everyone's entitled to their own opinion, but alot of people can do that without makin such a fuss.
