    so, seriously, am i the ONLY one on XBL that actually enjoys watching the replays? even the ones where i'm getting my tits stomped on by lau are worth watching to me. i love the other angles, i love to see the fight from a spectator's point of view, i LOVE the "three-peat" replays "boom-boom-BOOM!" . . . yet NOBODY seems patient enough, or interested enough to let 5 seconds of glory play out. it's always a drag when a fight finishes AMAZINGLY and the replay cuts a nano-second into it. hell, even when a fight ends cheaply, it's worth it for a laugh!

    i'm all about getting to the scrapping as much as the next cat, but c'mawn? you guys don't wanna see your foot break my jaw from 3 rapid-fire camera angles? hell, i do!

    I kinda like watching the replays and also the openings (mostly to see how the other person customized their characters). But if the person skips the replay, I skip too cause I know they want to get it over with I guess. XP

    I like to see them if I can gain some info on what happened at the end of a round with a particular move, but I don't expect people to sit there and watch them. Most of the time I just skip them too.

    so true. it's one of the best parts of of playing so many real people, seeing how their characters look.

    sometimes i wish there was an option in creating the match where you could disable the "replay-skip" so you'd have to watch them it ain't that long a wait til the next fight, yaknow?

    Just seems like rubbing it in to me, so I always skip them.

    Unless something special happened in the KO, I always skip the replay. But then what's considered "special" is somewhat subjective.

    As for opening intros and what not, after seeing them for over a year you kinda get over them. I can understand that for newer players, the novelty is most likely still there. Plus, as someone said earlier, it's sometimes a chance to check out items up close.
