This new Mortal Kombat truly nails everything that made the original and its sequel such a blast to play when they first arrived some 20 years ago. It's got fast pacing, it's got neat visuals, it's got cool moves and it's got those lovely fatalities which made this franchise into what it's all about: mortal kombat.

Okay, Im a little biased. I grew up playing Street Fighter 2 on the SNES and have put quite a bit of time in to the fouth core title in the series also. But I decided to give Mortal Kombat a spin as I was feeling a bit nostalgic and noticed the price has dropped considerably. MK is a frantic button basher that can become a strategic hardcore challenge on the higher difficulty settings. There is a wide selection of game modes and secrets to unlock to keep you playing, all the familiar fighters return each with signature moves and complete with the all important fatalities. Street Fighter will always be my number one fighting game, but this is certainly the most polished and balanced Mortal Kombat game in many years. And at this price I highly recommend it!

Great fighting game, combat is easy to learn and master, nothing difficult like Street Fighter or Tekken. A lot of free content to be unlocked (more fatalities, costumes, blueprints, artworks, stages), great story mode, nice graphics and finally bloody fatalities are back. Everyone step aside, bloodiest king of fighting games has arrived. 5/5

It is plausible to tell you that only because of this game I bought the prefix! It is a classic of a genre, and with such graphics simply super!!! I advise to all to buy - won't regret!!! The best fighting, the others will grow dim before it!

Mortal Kombat is a very good game, whilst being characteristically brutal. It combines nicely though, to end up being a lot of fun. The new combat action is the ability to play in 1 round with 2 players either side, like in the catching arena. So go on and order the game. It's brilliant.

Mortal Kombat at its finest! I'm glad they have gone back to the roots with part 9 of the series. The classic 2D arcade hit from 1992 combined with amazing graphics and a fluent gameplay. That's 5 stars for me!

This game sets itself apart from any other fighting games, just for the fact it is so massively appreciated. It is definitely my favourite fighting game ever. I would never hesitate to recommend it.

Mortal Kombat is definitely back! This release is faithful to what made the franchise a major success: the atmosphere, the gameplay, the incredible fatalities of the numerous charismatic characters, and even more... In fact, everything has been improved and now stands head and shoulders above what you expect from a great fighting game: sharp and detailed graphics, fast and perfectly fluid animation, terrific sound and so much content to unlock! Moreover, the solo story mode is particularly great, with a real storyline and nice cutscenes and transitions (contrary to most of fighting games). I consider this Mortal Kombat instalment an excellent surprise, as I wasn't expecting such a successful come back to the sources. Any fighting game lover should have it in their collection, especially if you liked the original MK game. Enjoy.

Mortal Kombat does not need introductions. It's Fun, Fast and incredibly Visceral and the "Story" mode is unique for a fighting game and very interesting from both, telling a story and providing an interesting fight for you to learn the games characters and moves. Just get it!
