Fighting Games, Best type of action game

I think fighting games are the best, play nothing but them most of the time. I'm one of those fighting fanatics you would see at all the street fighter and tekken tournaments. All played the hell out of most fighting games and studied them. I've also been making my own fighting game, hard to work out the bugs. It used to be Street Fighter with the best fighting, the came Tekken and Virtua Fighter. They got beaten by Dead or Alive (not beaten as better to most eyes, but beaten by better fighting). Then came Soul Caliber and the new Tekken, the new Tekken looks the hottest but still somewhat the same, Soul Calibers fighting rocked and was much like Dead or Alive. Those two were the best. What I like about Tekken is that they use real fighting styles but you just throw the moves, not martial art combat, just the moves. But then the new Mortal Kombats came out. I thought I'd never buy them. I always thought Mortal Kombat was immature which it is, but I thought it was still gonna be a fake fighting game like before. Well, in fighting, the new MK cooks (or should i say kooks) all the others. not one, not two, but three !real! fighting styles. and they don't just throw the moves either, the blocking and strafing you do makes it look like real martial art kombat. Not only that but you can fly through walls and into traps, pick up weapons lying around and the characters are cool and actually got style unlike Tekken and DOA's boring characters. People who still say Mortal Kombat isn't that great are just against it because of the immaturity in it. I was against it, but no more am i. As for the Graphics, alot of people say it isn't great, I've even heard some1 say it looked like MK4. What!? MK4 maybe they need to compare, the GFX on MK Alliance and Deception are beautiful, not the best, but beautiful. (Except Noob Saibot's second costume, looks a little MK4ish but the best outfit ever, my style). So for MK I give two thumbs up, this time, it beats the others. (which is sad for the more serious games... disappointing)
