  • The game has a surprising, yet totally awesome Story Mode
  • It has great graphics, entertained story mode and good fighting combos

Reviews around graphic (4.07 of 5)

  • The graphics are great and it's nice to see the old time fighters from the original game
  • great game, the graphics are very good, the versatility of personasjes and their movements are very good
  • Nothing special about it, I've seen more gore in movies and the online SUCKS as it lags horribly.

Reviews around fight (3.96 of 5)

  • Fighting Shao Kahn in story mode is the cheapest, most ridiculous and laughably unfair fight in any Mortal Kombat game that's ever been put out.5
  • Speaking of Shao Kahn the fight against him is very difficult because he fights really cheap
  • And I think of it as the best fighting game in this generation
  • This is definitely my favorite fighting game of all time
  • This game is probably the best fighting game out as of this date

Reviews around control (3.82 of 5)

  • The one thing I have to knock down the controls for is sometimes I seriously wonder how some attacks
  • One of the biggest hooks that this game offers is just how extremely fluent and intuitive the controls are
  • I have never, ever played a fighter where the controls worked so well
  • Intuitive controls, easy to pull off combos and really satisfying sound effects all combined to create a game which feels every bit as good as the acclaimed Street Fighter 4, but was arguably more user friendly
  • The old games at least had the originality of story/characters as well as fluid controls which counteracted this but this one with its stiff controls is a real problem.3

  • The game has a surprising, yet totally awesome Story Mode
  • This is a solid game and you should buy it has a great story, great fighters, and it's brutal
  • Just finished Story Mode which is really the best thing about this game, kinda like that good movie that was never made

Reviews around gameplay (3.76 of 5)

  • Good gameplay, stunning graphics, lots of blood and gruesome fatalities
  • Very smooth gameplay, crisp graphics, great sound of crushing bones, a lot of kontent to unlock to keep you entertained, AWESOME FATALITIES and very fun challenge tower aside from other mini-games like test your might!I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS GAME!
  • The game mode for 4 players is awesome for parties with friends, the new graphics are awesome, there's a lot of blood, gameplay has never been faster
  • Firstly, after you press start, the title menu screen lags as it's loading
  • Great visuals (never seen the U3 engine look so good), great sound, great fighting mechanics, lots of content, a Story mode which SSF IV lacks) robust and fun online (although not as good as in SSF IV, but it's just a matter of

Reviews around addition (3.56 of 5)

  • The two newcomers to the MK roster are a welcome addition
  • Firstly, after you press start, the title menu screen lags as it's loading
  • Gone are the clunky 3-D aspects of Mortal Kombat from renditions past.
  • I like this addition as far as visuals go, but I fail to see how they can continue fighting after having most of their bones broken, their skull shattered and vital organs pierced
  • More game play for your buck!The addition of Kratos is AWESOME

Reviews around player (3.55 of 5)

  • Practice modes, challenges, arcade, story, and a robust multi-player experience combine to create a near utopian view of what a fighting game SHOULD be.
  • I did not observe them to be interactive like they were in MK3, where you could knock players up to a higher level of the same stage (i.e. from subway to street level)
  • Firstly, after you press start, the title menu screen lags as it's loading
  • Other than players crying and complaining about which character is "nerfed" or "buffed" online, online play is a blast
  • Nothing special about it, I've seen more gore in movies and the online SUCKS as it lags horribly.

Reviews around mk (3.47 of 5)

  • The past few games were decent, but this one is probably the best MK to date
  • There were a few dud MK games in the past few years, but this one really hit the mark in terms of graphics, sound, moves and overall fun factor.
  • This game brings you back to what made MK so fun and addicting in it's day
  • And since I've played the game I've become an avid MK fan
  • So in my opinion it's not worth paying 60.00 unless your a die hard MK fan & this is your thing because I will be putting super SSF4 back in rotation any day now for a actual challenge because this game will get old to me fast

Reviews around character (3.30 of 5)

  • The game has 27 of the best and most well known characters that we all love
  • It was really fun, with the new fatalities, and some new characters
  • This game features all the best characters the series has to offer
  • Some character's can knock off 40% of a player's HP in the right situation.
  • With Mortal Kombat Armageddon, the developers thought that by returning every character from all previous entries would add enough flare to help revitalize the franchise.

Reviews around fatality (2.33 of 5)

  • Classic costumes and fatalities are unlockable for certain characters as well.
  • Even bosses have their own unique, brutal fatalities and X-ray moves.
  • The graphics are insane, the fatalities are gory, and I absolutely love the X RAY moves
  • The X-rays moves are insane and the fatalities are at there greatest

  • love the x-ray move of course everyone has their special moves like scorpions spear sub zeros freeze ball blah
  • El juego es un exito, la jugabilidad increible, el tema que te muestren como hacer los fatalities y brutalites esta genial
  • X-ray moves get quite boring and take you out of the game play experience.6
  • It's as bloody as ever; new x-ray moves and fatalities will make you cringe

Reviews around raiden (1.76 of 5)

  • The story goes that Shao Khan won at the end of Mortal Kombat Armageddon and achieved immortality and invincibility which he then used to annihilate all of the Kombatants including long time rival Raiden, however before Raiden is killed he sends a message to his past self, a cryptic finally thought "he must win
  • The story begins with Dark Raiden and Shao Kahn squaring off at the end of Armageddon...every other warrior strewn dead across the battlefield, Dark Raiden, still fighting for the preservation of Earthrealm and mortals despite his "evil" turn, fights desperately against the empowered Shao Kahn.
  • Gone are the clunky 3-D aspects of Mortal Kombat from renditions past.
  • When I like a

Reviews around opponent (1.69 of 5)

  • MK now have 2-on-2 matches like Marvel vs. Capcom, Challenge Tower and Fatality Training (so no more excuses for not finishing your opponent)
  • The online mode could use some improvement (such as being able to see an opponent's connection strength and to decline matches if the connection is not good enough) but the competition has been capable
  • One can certainly pick up the controller and feel fairly deadly right from the get go, yet the game is continually challenging (providing you match an appropriate difficulty level with your skill).Hitting an opponent in this game is rewarding.
  • If your opponent does not counter attack, you will move back and can start a new assault
  • Some are normal enough, like just defeating your opponent, while others range from funny to frustrating

  • Firstly, after you press start, the title menu screen lags as it's loading
  • Despite the rivers of whiney tears cried in protest to MK vs DCU's T rating and lack of gore, the WB partnership was forged early on.
  • But if you play local with a friend like I do, you can easily lose track of time and play until 4 in the morning.

Reviews around ray attack (1.67 of 5)

  • x-ray attacks are easy to do, but it can get annoying to watch them over and over without a way to skip them
  • Great visuals (never seen the U3 engine look so good), great sound, great fighting mechanics, lots of content, a Story mode which SSF IV lacks) robust and fun online (although not as good as in SSF IV, but it's just a matter of
  • The normal x-ray attack damage is between 33-40%, however the boss' x-ray attacks deal about 53%

Reviews around alliance (1.54 of 5)

  • While not necessarily horrible games, if you look in my reviews you'll see how strongly I felt about Deadly Alliance and Deception.
  • However, the series started to fall short with the release of Deadly Alliance, Deception, and Armageddon.
  • I disliked everything from Deadly Alliance to vs DC Universe
  • Great visuals (never seen the U3 engine look so good), great sound, great fighting mechanics, lots of content, a Story mode which SSF IV lacks) robust and fun online (although not as good as in SSF IV, but it's just a matter of
  • The lack of new fighters is somewhat disappointing (aside from Kratos and some DLC) but the fighting mechanic is so much more balanced than the last 3 previous games (MK: Deadly Alliance, Deception, and MK vs DC).

Reviews around trophy (1.54 of 5)

  • Despite the rivers of whiney tears cried in protest to MK vs DCU's T rating and lack of gore, the WB partnership was forged early on.
  • For so much work I they should have had an unlockable character.>The amount of time you would need to put in this game to get all the trophies is ridiculous
  • El juego es un exito, la jugabilidad increible, el tema que te muestren como hacer los fatalities y brutalites esta genial
  • But I had to say how fricken brutal, stupid, retarded and silly the trophies are

Reviews around difficulty (1.54 of 5)

  • And the difficulty is hard at first, but gets easier if you keep losing fights.
  • Freaking Shao Khan's rising shoulder on any harder difficulty, makes jump+comboing him difficult, this is also probably a proI'm sure I'll find
  • One can certainly pick up the controller and feel fairly deadly right from the get go, yet the game is continually challenging (providing you match an appropriate difficulty level with your skill).Hitting an opponent in this game is rewarding.
  • Completely unreasonable difficulty in areas that should be relatively simple
  • Fighting the A.I. can be frustrating when it comes to the Ladder or Story Modes, so putting the difficulty on Beginner really shouldnt be that shameful

  • If that doesn't do it, his extremely simple-to-perform teleport attack, also having no warning, will hit you instead
  • Scorpion has the very serious problem of having an unblockable move as well as a teleport attack
  • I think that there should have been a 1.5 sec delay on the frequency at which any teleport attack can be initiated

Reviews around boss (1.41 of 5)

  • A final boss should of course be difficult, but this is just broken
  • Not so much normal 'cheating' (like when the final boss in a fighting game has attacks that can take away 1/4 to 1/3 of
  • There are a lot of 1 v 2 battles...and the bosses and mini bosses are tough
  • I would have given this game 5 stars except for the cheap boss fight at the end of the campaign
  • The other is that, like any other fighting game, the last boss is impossible

Reviews around bone break (1.35 of 5)

  • Even during the x-rays moves, you can see bones breaking and organs getting smashed up

  • It's a very bloody game too, with brutal fatalities and 'X-ray' moves where we get to see cool shots of bones breaking and guts shredding
  • and I really like the new xray feature that shows the bones breaking.
  • A new game mechanic, X-Ray moves allows the player to see the bones breaking of your opponent making the experience more brutal
