How Pinbacky Are You?

Anyway, you're completely wrong. No one has been impressed by a fatality past age fourteen. Anyone who is impressed, is a ham fisted ass who sucked at fighting games to begin with.

Why don't you go to a local arcade ask someone if fatalities are 'impressive' and then record the hours upon hours of laughter and pants wetting that follows?

You're just out of the loop, nothing horribly wrong with that, except in your mind.

Impressing the bystanders is more important than winning the game? Wow, man. I'd like to see you play a tournament.

So they are regular moves you can't use when you want. They are not "super." "Super" is a generic word that can mean anything. "Stupid" isn't being used. You could call them "stupid moves."

It's quite a fundamental difference, really: one hurts your opponent before you defeat him, and one hurts your opponent after you defeat him. Now tell me, which is more useful?

Fatalities. At an arcade (and I trust you will agree that the ONLY place to play fighting games is an arcade... goes without saying, I trust) people will be impressed to see you pull off a fatality. They will not be impressed that you held down the "charge" button to do some stupid nonsense which is not as cool as the items that the MK games give you for free. Since you put this in terms of what is "useful," I reiterate: making the bystanders go "Woooo!!"! is useful. So therefore the fatality.

Ever since the "Now if freezing a guy with a bolt of Ice is only 'special'" post he's been trolling.

Format Free transcribing of the image for Bond.
PLEASE DO NOT FEED THE TROLL
TROLLS try to disrupt, destroy, or change the newgroups to fit their own agendas.
they often used such techniques as: flooding by excessive posting attacking regulars in a group attempting to divide and conquer making themselves the saviour of the group trying to impress others with their knowledge threatening people spreading rumours violating newsgroup policies posting under many aliases disguising their headers
TROLLS often have serious personal issues that lead them to try to control others.
TROLLS don't hang around newsgroups where people don't respond to their rants the best way to deal with trolls is to ignore them.

Super moves damage your opponent, and must be charged to a certain piont before they can be used, making them part of every fighting gamer's strategy.

Fatalities are executing your opponent in a grizzly (and often amusing) fashion.

Are you saying that you did not say that supers were in Mortal Kombat and then claim to know everything about video games?

I'm saying, you thick fuck, that your DEFINTIONS of what makes a "super-movE!!!" in a retarded fighting game is beyond worthless if somehow this definition does not include RIPPING THE STILL-BEATING HEART FROM A GUY.

Which was clearly in Mortal Kombat.

Non-worthless genres don't have this problem. But because there hasn't been an interesting idea in a fighting game since Mortal Kombat II you're seeing desperation creep in. Like the DESPERATION of your post here.

Well, I'm out... Good luck to the rest of you! Here's a helpful hint! Moosejaw is ten clicks SOUTH of the county that you think it MIGHT be in....!! I'll say no more! Counties don't change all the time due to voting lines and everyone in America got forced to memorize all the counties in all the states so I expect bigger things from the rest of you!

I don't care when you do it, because you pick your spots. When Lysander starts doing it on things he's clearly wrong about or things that nobody is talking about then that's when it becomes annoying.

I don't know anything about "counties." I don't even know what county I live in. I'm sorry you need the blanks filled in, it must be very frustrating for you. More, you are actually sitting there (drunk) (depressed) with the expectation that there are more than two people who:

1) Know the STATES you lived in
2) Know the CITIES you lived in
3) Will now cross-reference them against counties.

Who the fucking fuck do you think you are? I can name TWO counties. My girlfriend works for one and I grew up in the other. "Oh, right, Ben lived in Shitbank County, Florida, but only barely, as I-270 is the border to the north and he lived on Queen Lay Ave which is a block south of that, oh, wow, cool!" Is that what you wanted? Eat poison.
