I never liked the blood in Mortal Kombat at all... hence why I never play it! I'm much more of a lighter game, like Kirby (though that has blood in some fights, it isn't terrible or anything...) or Mario or even maybe Suikoden II or Fire Emblem. Yeah.
I was never good at fighting games either, unfortunately! I never enjoyed them due to this, so I always get crushed when a friend wants me to play one... BUT I CAN BEAT THEM IN OTHER THINGS LIKE... LIKE MAKING REALLY COLORFUL AND YET BADLY WRITTEN COMICS!!! And uh... maybe writing? Eh, whatever! Either way, I'm glad someone feels the same way I do! I REALLY hated the 'X-Rays' in Mortal Combat, they were hard to look at (so much so for me that I couldn't look at the screen when they were used on me).
Not to say the game can't be fun... it can! However... I could EASILY do without the large boobs of the females. Sheesh.
