Funny you should mention it but I too have a love/hate (or hot/cold) relationship with fighting games. I remember liking Mortal Kombat for its' story line but shelved in shortly after beating it. Blazblue & Streetfighter 4? I simply got tired of buying what I thought was the most current version only for a new edition to come out later. Persona 4 Arena? Great fighting game with many of my favorite characters but I almost wish it had been a co-op beat em up or a continuation of the rpg it's based on instead. (Well, it is a continuation story wise. What I meant was I rather it be an rpg expansion sort of thing.) King Of Fighters 13 reminded me of awesome fighters akin to Garou Mark Of The Wolves and SF 3rd Strike so it's one of my favorites. (And even then I don't play it as often as I should) Soul Calibur 4 & Tekken 6 likewise gave me a lot for my money but they've been collecting dust all the same.
