My good ol 486SX-25 is good cuz I *MAKE* my own games... I am a programmer... A 486-25 will assure me that my games will run really fast on anybodys computer now adays. There are many DOS games out there I still like that were meant for a 386. The reason im stuck with a 486-25 is because my stupid CPU cant be upgraded! All I have in my computer is a slot for a 387. As for a hard drive, well, I really DO need one of those. A 120MB HD really does not cut it these days. And I really need that stupid 387 so I dont have to wait 30 minutes for a ray-tracer to finish. As for SNES and Genesis and the next generation machines, Ill wait until I a machine that does not go under (like the jaguar) so I wont get ripped off again (I bought a jaguar :( ). As for game prices, I will NEVER pay over 50 bucks for a game unless Ive played it before and it is really something special. I rented MK3 for SNES and found out that even in the home version the computer 'cheats'. I have it on 'very easy', I have a complete list of all the moves for each guy and STILL get my ass whipped. Even worse, yesterday at the arcade I had my ass whipped by a 5 year old kid!!!!!!!!!!

The reason why I like KI2 is because I didn't care to much for p -> I only played it no more then two times. I began to play with KI2 an -> that's why I like it. (Don't worry no feeling taken.) You too huh?? God, SK is so boring. "You will die" blah, blah blah... They should have a totally original guy become a boss that would be great like: From a distant, unknown universe came a mighty warrior looking to cell existence of life on Earth and The Outworld. This warrior's name is BARNEY!! Nah maybe Thor or something. You see now this would make a GREAT STORYLINE if something like this happened in the series. Than, the Outworld and Earth's kombatants would team up or get along with each other for the same cause. To try and defeat Thor and keep their man-kind or alien-kind existence from being extinct. Than, we could probably have a reason to control Shao Kahn, Motaro, Kintaro, Goro, and all those guys or EVEN control this THOR guy!! And if you bear the game with him, than you do end up, destroying the world!!!!! WOW!!! That would rule!! I wish I had the internet or something. I would e-mail Williams and tell them my killer idea. I don't know why but there are voices in my head and bubbles popping around it... help!! How do i get rid of these damn voices!! FINISH HIM!!!!
