Street Fighter 2 Turbo is great but cmon boys Mortal Kombat 2 is where it's at. The grim, otherworldy aesthetics unlike the cartoonish look of SF. The tension that you're actually not just in a street fight.. but a fight to the death! A fight to save the world or destroy it, whichever side you choose. The story is way deeper too and that's something nobody seems to talk about, it's so good that it could almost be reality. That's why the MK movie was better than the SF movie, even though SF had Jean Claude Van Damme! The characters are more memorable and have more substance, an undead ninja back for vengeance, a hollywood action star that wants to prove he's the real deal, an evil warlock that steals the souls of his victims to become infinitely more powerful, cmon guys these are better characters than Ken and Ryu! The fighting itself is more satisfying and the moves are more creative and dynamic, blood flying everywhere just like in a real fight. Sorry but the kids I knew growing up that preferred SF were the kids that traded pokemon cards and the kids that preferred MK were the ones that traded baseball and hockey cards. Basically what I'm trying to say is MK is the game for real muthafuckin g's and SF is for soyboys with perogy boobs and little asian twinks.
