I suggested releasing it on Steam back when it became apparent that the game is broken and not getting duct taped together. I'm glad they took that direction (and not trying to say it happened because I suggested it, lol.)
Here's to hoping that they'll take the right course with it and we'll get mk9 living, breathing and balanced on the pc.
Steam is just the right platform to release and test your games. As far as I'm concerned, this is still mk9 beta because of the horribad patching policies on psn/xbl and because of the devs listening to scrubs instead of thinking with their heads.
This game could be thriving for ten years yet if they only go and fix the imbalances.
