All games reek with potential creativity. Fuck, Supes 64 reeked with potential creativity. Have they actually used it? No. If you want to go see a romance movie, you don't go watch Deliverance because there was potential for love to form during the mouth-rape murder scene, Deliverance utterly fails as a romance movie, just like, imho, Mortal Kombat fails as a creative/fun game. It's just a shinier version of its predecessors, just like it has been for several bloated, money-whoring sequels already.
