It is when you take into account that MK, by itself, has over 50+ characters, and DC probably has over a hundred.
But, meh. That's what DLC is for right?

mvc2 is a prime example of a large rostered game that delivered. sc4 and umk3 proved worthy too witheveryone they had, as well.
Well I already been over the MvC2 thing and UMK3 had just as much as MKvDC.

and for the shorties that blew you got games like pit fighter, world heroes, dark stalkers and guilty gear x just to name a few.and yea I said pit fighter and world heroes.
I was never really into Pit Fighter myself but come on, World Heroes? If you're just basing this on the first game, well the series was just starting out but it got better later on and even in the last game (World Heroes Perfect), they only had like 19 characters. If you consider that alot then that's a difference in your view and Nemesis X's and thus, what I'm saying to him may be different to you.

I know how you feel. Deception was really good IMO. I didn't like DA because it was stupid and the story sucked. Who kills off the star of their franchise? What I really liked was the story. Shunjinko was basically manipulated since childhood and believed that he was chosen as a champion and then at the end he finds out that he has been nothing more than a pawn.
As for Deadly Alliance, basically the only thing I liked about it a lot (if anything) was that Immortal song by Adema. 😛 The way you were able to impale opponents in that game with most of the characters' weapons was pretty cheap IMO. 😬 Am glad that was taken out of the later installments.
As for Deception, yeah. Not only was the storyline good, but I like how the setting of it started way before the events of the first Mortal Kombat game, and how Shujinko's quest for the Kamidogu lasted all throughout the events of MK1, MK2, MK3, MK4, and MK: DA. 😄
That was a pretty sweet idea. So was the thing with there being an original ruler of Outworld before Shao Kahn, whom Kahn had poisoned and taken over as emperor (needless to say, it made me not see Kahn the same way ever again, but that's still a pretty badass origin for one like Onaga, and how he finally came back after years of plotting & manipulating Shujinko).

i think it's fine, actually... if the game is a success, we should see bigger rosters if they make a sequel anyways...

if they put in a dozen more characters, we'd be waiting even longer for the game... but its out in two weeks...

I'd rather wait another 2 months. I have Gears 2 and Fallout 3 and a few other games. I couldn't give a shit about this game for god knows how long.

everyone is going to disagree about what characters are in the game, i think its only natural...
Obviously. I'm allowed to state my opinion you know.

at least we got wonder woman, kitana and sonya, though...
I'm all in favour of "appreciate what you have," but I'd say 4 out of 22 is reason enough to be disappointed.

No, but I was making a point...
i know, i'm just saying, street fighter 4 has what, 26? mk has 22... i just don't think its that big a concern...
