wow. I can't believe the love mk4 is receiving here. That game is truly terrible in oh so many ways. The gameplay feels like a parody of a mortal kombat game aimed for children. Everyone's animations are far to quick and the movement is wayyyyy to jerky. The characters do not feel solid, as say, mk or mk2. Infact the only benefits that mk4 has are Quan Chi, who i love, and a cool looking cabinet in my humble opinion! Which i own...and use as a umk3 machine
