Because the first thread died before it can even get going.
Some gaming footage for your viewing pleasure:
No, this isn't a guilty pleasure game for me. IMO this is one of the best fighting games around. It and Mortal Kombat proved that you can make a good fighter without sacrificing story and characters. I love how a lot of the character stories connect together and their campaign plays like a TV show. And the music. Listen to that glorious soundtrack! Only thing that sucks about it is the lip synch. What even the smurf? "My lines are finished, but I am clearly still talking. Stare awkwardly into my body language, fools!"
I played this game so much I still have the controls recorded to memory. I can pick it up today after years of not playing it and it's like I never stopped. It's one of the few games I can actually play on hard and beat.
Oh, and Paul Eiding is in this game. Enough said.
Discuss, the whole two people who know what I'm talking about.
