Here are some gameplay vids for those of you who aren't up on the greatness that is Final Showdown

Not sure if this going to be able to compete with all of the amazing fighters that are out there already but I'm hoping it isn't a giant flop.

Mortal Kombat hasn't been a good figher for a long time. The competitive scene consists mostly of MvC, SSBB, Soul Calibur and Street Fighter vs Tekken now and for good reasons. The games have a decent amount of balance to them while still allowing for good choices for bans in tourneys.
Hell even the Naruto Clash of Ninja Revolution games on the Wii were pretty good, I just can't get into any MK's anymore simply because they feel so clunky and the move sets are less than appealing to me.

Absolutely brutal waiting for this game, I haven't bothered with an MK game since MK3 (which I didn't like). Cannot wait to get into some online matches in Final Showdown and i'm sure the game will do relatively well. SF x Tekken looks like complete garbage so i've avoided that like the plague. Seeing capcom send out and unfinished BETA and charging$60 for it was shameful

Played it at a friends house, it's a little better than I expected but still not very different from VF5. Picked Taka Arashi and won my first 5 in a row. I just can't get past the horrible one liners and clunky game play. In all of my fights I won just by side stepping them once and then using a combo on them after.
I'd give it a 6/10 but those who are playing it for the nostalgia value probably will give it an 8 or 9 out of 10.

Wish I got some matches in on you, side stepping has limited effectiveness for most people. When you get caught though it is damaging. Cool that your friend has the game

I'm over at his place quite often I'm sure we could get a game in eventually. I was only using side stepping because it's all I needed to use vs some of the baddies I was against. They would always keep pounding out their combo at me and past me even when I side stepped making it far too easy.
I'd love to play vs a real VF fan who knows what they are doing and would be a good challenge. Next time I'm over there I'll put up his PSN name and maybe we can throw down.
