Well, I beat the game this morning, but I was CHEAP.  I was using Sheng
Tsung vs. Kintaro, but this would probably work with anyone... at the
beginning of the round, back up until he is JUST within leg sweep range. 
Leg sweep and then start tapping the low punch button as fast as possible. 
He will sit there until the time runs out.

Then against the last guy (I forget his name), I used Sub-Zero and the old,
reliable Freeze, Uppercut, Repeat.  Took me three tries to get the timing
right, but as long as the freeze hits him just as he is getting up, it
works like a charm.

I wish Midway would have put the endings in before they released it
though... It is quite a let down to beat the computer only to see "GAME
OVER".  Oh well, gotta wait for the ROM upgrades, I guess.
