Analysis
This GameFAQ is great for learning the moves.
I'm probably just bad at this game, but so far the AI seems incredibly boring to play against. It seems to lack a degree of randomness, and most of the time just proceeds according to a very simple algorithm.
My current thoughts are that single player MK2 is just bad. I'm sure this is a great multiplayer game, but the way the AI plays is extremely boring. I'm moving on to MK3 for now.
