assistant: You know, I think they just got too cheesy in MK3 when it came to fatalities,
they were so cheap looking. Weren't as corn-gold as MK2. What ever happened
to just an ol' fashioned decapatation? Why do we need a MK machine fall on
people. It sucks. They need to get rid of the babalities, for sure, maybe the
friendships too. But I don't really care for the friendships either.

assistant: Well, I wish I could get Crash Bandicoot, Sept. 9th, but I dont think I

NBA In the Zone, NHL Faceoff, NFL Gameday, Twisted Metal, Resident
Evil, Olympic Summer Games, and PGA Tour '96.  Most of these games as
you can see were some of the best games for the system with the
exception of NBA In The Zone, and OSG.  Well, if you care, which I hope
someone here does, I will eventually get:  Crash Bandicoot, MK Trilogy,
NBA Hangtime,  WWF In Your House, Twisted Metal 2,  Triple Play '97,
and there is a 3 way tie for the 7th and last game I will get by XMas
at the latest, they are:  WipeOut XL, F1 Racing from Psygnosis as well,
and VMX Racing.  That's my video game life as of right now, and I can't
wait till I get my Snes sold, than I can buy all these wonderful games
when they come out in the Fall/Winter!

instead, is that...  hmmm.. damn I am drunk!!!  Your right!!!!  Well, I
guess one reason as I mentioned earlier is that in MKT there are
special fireball attacks and stuff and I love fantasy instead of
reality.  I rented BAM2 and I found it pretty fun too, kinda like
Tetris.  Just the graphics kinda sucked but that's the spirit of the
game.
