Its a vast visual improvement over T7... but I don't love it, yet.

When you compare the amazing and potentially realistic graphics of the new MK1, I think Harada's team has missed a trick.

Online play was ok - even with a 1gb fibre wired connection, the fights were still glitching - so not sure why that's happening?

Was it just me... or is Lars slower in T8 than he was previously?.. can barely string a juggle or combo together now.

And on a personal note, I hope they finally bring back character unlocks for arcade mode - loved being able to actually unlock something worth putting the time in. (Perhaps VS and Online modes can have everyone already unlocked to keep everyone happy?)
