Review: A perfect ressurection for the devout! - Let me get a load off my chest at the confession booth. I suck at Mortal Kombat. Even in the arcades I was always better at Street Fighter 2. Some people may tell you MK is an "easier" and more `mainstream" fighter. However, make no mistakes about it there is "skill" needed in order to prevail at this game. If you are a split second off chaining together a combo the victory train completely derails off the track. Frankly to me it seems easier to build up multiple hits and pull off counters in SSF4 but apparently I'm some sort of weirdo in that regard. Anyway, if you were good at MK back in the arcades you'll be even better at it now! What you "loved" about the klassic first 3 games returns in 2.5D splendor and everything flows much smoother. If you were the type of guy or gal who delighted in upper cutting hapless saps into the air right before "ninja-porting" mid jump with another volley of punches and kicks to pound on your opponents further before they even touched the ground you'll be able to re-live your glory days here. MK 2011 "rewards" MK fans in every regard! Sadly, for those of us that got beaten to bloody pulps back then we'll complete that same pathetic cycle in the present So you`re probably thinking because I get my butt kicked all over the place when playing this game I'm going to give it a bad review, right? Wrong! Despite my ineptitude MK 2011 is a great fighter. So great in fact it makes other fighting games seem as if they're slacking off in comparison! Don't know what I mean yet? Well, read on.... "Story Mode" Call me "insane" but I always believed fighting games benefited from having a good story line. Mortal Kombat makes you play through the perspectives of its most memorable characters. Want to see Cyrax and Sector in their human forms? Ever wondered who Noob Saibot really was? Was Liu Kang truly the "perfect hero" everyone made him out to be? How exactly is Mileena Kitana's sister? Can Jax refrain from punching Johnny Cage in his big mouth? What's Scorpion's beef with Sub Zero? Will Raiden's vision of "Armageddon" come to pass? These questions and more get answered along the way. Luckily, there are no painfully tedious pauses of scrolling text. Every event plays out with in game cut scenes and spoken dialogue. MK 2011 unfolds like a great movie and "most" of the minor plot tweaks are for the best. Stating that for the record, a few of my favorite protagonists are killed off needlessly. It makes me wonder if the next MK game will include them or if they'll be brought back as cheesy kung fu zombies. "Modes Mucho Grande!" When you're done in the story mode there's 300 objectives in the challenge tower, tag team co-op & versus match ups, the regular arcade ladder, and a plethora of mini games testing your concentration and button tapping vigor. In many aspects MK 2011 is like getting multiple fighters in one package. Whether you want to go at it alone or with a friend either option is open to you. "Online shine" MK 2011 adds a spectator mode in which little gamer avatars watch fights and rank kombatants. It's a much nicer alternative than id cards humping each other. In "King of the hill" matches I experienced lag but when 8 people are in one room from all over the world that tends to happen. Fortunately nothing was any worse than what I`ve experienced when playing other fighting games over Xbox live . From what my friends say most of the other online modes run at a much more fluid rate. If NetherRealm studios can fix what little is wrong the online play will be unsurpassed! "Krypt kickin" The krypt is back! All the koins you get playing the other modes are spent here to unlock content in "The Necronopolis". My biggest problem with the Krypt is much of the "Kontent" is useless. Certainly I like the wonderful art, alternate costumes, and new tunes but "stick figure depictions" of fatalities aren't really a worthwhile reward. In addition the "extra fatalities" are in the game even before you uncover their commands. Assuming you can get on google you can execute the "secret finishers" without ever having to spend koins on them directly. "Gore galore" Call it a "sign of the times" or call it "harmless dumb fun" but MK 2011 has blood, bruises, exposed bones, and wretch inducing fatalities in abundance. If for whatever reason you weaned on the "living dead gurl" supple breast milk of Saw, Faces of death, Hell Raiser, Blood sport, and other extra violent 80's and 90's action movies there's a lot to love here. The best new feature of MK 2011 are the X-ray moves. After tapping the top trigger buttons when you've saved all 3 stocks of your power bar you can break skulls, snap spines, and shatter limbs as the game slows time down and let's you see the gruesome work you're inflicting upon someone's skeleton! These techniques dish out a lot of damage so be sure to save them for when you're in a pinch and need to turn a match around. Even in the Krypt you rip people apart on stretching racks, behead prisoners by dropping guillotines, make the bellies of unfortunate souls pop as you feed them molten lead through funnel devices, and call upon ravens to pick at the innards of bloated water logged corpses. "Killing victims" frees green energy that is transferred into unlocked treasures. This all goes a bit over board for me but MK has always pushed the envelop. I cannot dock points for features that have always been at the core of a popular franchise no matter how shocking and revolting its' blackened heart actually is. "The fighting" I made the mistake of trying to perfect my game with a kombatant I'm not good with. At first this tainted my impression of the game. Later as I played with more characters I discovered a fighting engine that is not only deep but very slick once you get the hang of it! If you've never been good at MK chaining hits may seem to come off as disjointed and a little wooden at first. However, once you play for a couple of weeks to a few months everything "flows" more naturally. While I cannot say this from personal experience the gamers I interacted with truly moved their favorite fighters with poise and grace. If someone tells you MK 2011 is an "amateur fighter" for scrubs they're talking out their rear end! MK requires a lot of patience and commitment to master it fully thus I have admiration for anyone who has done so. True enough, certain characters such as Kung Lao and Smoke are a little imbalanced. Like it or not every fighting game has it's upper tier, middle tier, and lower tier warriors. MK 2011 is no exception. However, NetherRealm and Ed Boon have been quoted saying patches are coming as is dlc for more characters. Another words it can only get better from here on out right? "Organic world" Not only has exquisite detail been put into the characters but many of your favorite set pieces have been redone in HD glory! Remember the creepy trees in the living forest, were you frightened by "The Katherdral's" scary unholy hymn music and stain glass decadence? Did you enjoy knocking defeated adversaries into an acid pool or a pit of spikes below? If so, you are in good hands. Perhaps more impressive is the Out World's invasion upon Earth Realm. Giant demons rampage upon asphalt high ways, crushing cars beneath their hardened feet as dragons take to the sky and breath fiery death upon huddled survivors. It's quite the spectacle and occasionally you'll lose a fight as you gawk at the macabre theatre unfolding throughout the various backgrounds! "Bottom line" If you have been patiently waiting for a MK game that captures the magic of the original games before it all went to crap "this" is your game. As a fan I would rate this one up there with MK 2, Ultimate MK , and MK Deception. It's really that good. "But" if you've never understood the hype around MK or if you detest excessive pointless gore and violence I warn you that this entry will not sway your stance. Aka if you're outside this niche there's nothing which will draw you in. Mortal Kombat is still Mortal Kombat. It's unapologetic in all its' kinky blood splattered gratuity and is still happy mud wrestling in the flesh pits whilst wearing nothing but a string bikini! (Oh Mileena, you so crazy!) By the way, if you're a mother or father do not buy this for your underage kids. Prove to the world adults at least have some common sense! Mortal Kombat is a bad influence on young impressionable minds "15 & up" is acceptable so long as said teenagers are mature enough to handle it. "Pros" 1. Good story line (albeit campy in a Big Trouble In Little China meets Hell Raiser kind of way) 2. Tag team co-op and versus 3. A plethora of extra modes and challenges 4. Every character has at least one other alternate costume which isn't merely a color palette swap . (Thanks guys! I hate having to get all this stuff as dlc in other fighters.) 5. Improved fighting engine 6. Nice online features that make for a friendly socializing experience. 7. The MK Kommunity is surprisingly laid back and accepting of newcomers! 8. Kenshin and Skarlet are on their way as dlc as well as patches to make your MK experience more balanced. 9. Helpful in depth tutorial which covers many in game nuances. 10. Most of the absolute favorite Kombatants are accounted for. There's roughly 27 or 28 in all even without additional dlc! "Cons" 1. If you rent or buy MK used you must pay a $10.00 toll to play online (Kooperate jerk baggery!) 2. Even if bought brand new MK doesn't come with a fully fleshed out instruction manual. The decent tutorial softens the blow somewhat though. 3. Believe me, I realize MK is fantasy fulfillment so I have no problems with the ladies dressing up in stripper lingerie BUT why do they all have to have the same cup sizes and same basic physique? More anatomical variety would have been nice. Not every female in Edenia has to be a plastic surgery modified porn star. Just saying! 4. Some of the violence, torture, and gore is too excessive even for me. Feel free to disagree! 5. Shao Kahn is still the same cheap trash talking skull mask wearing frat boy with a chip on his shoulder. Expect to die when facing him A LOT. 6.During story battles fights versus multiple characters can grow cumbersome. 7. Some lag during king of the hill matches. 8. Much of the Krypt treasures are pretty useless. 9. "Vomit inducing visual wounds" cannot be turned off. 10. Certain pivotal protagonists die off early. End Verdict Though MK 2011 has frustrated me in places and almost made me lose my lunch a few times it is by far the best fighter in terms of extras, depth, and craftsmanship. NetherRealm and Ed Boon really cared about their fan base and set out to make the best iteration of Mortal Kombat they possibly could. Assuming you're an MK supporter from the "old days" my highest score recommendation is meant for you. If you're not into MK I'd suggest knocking off 1 or 2 points just to play it safe. Though MK 2011 is awesome overall it has its' fair share of faults and they will be more jarring for those not intoxicated by the nostalgic ambrosia of the elder gods!
Review: Rest assured xbox 360 owners, Mortal Kombat is fantastic! - I have just finished the story mode and have spent about 10 hours with the game, it is fantastic so far! More to come soon... I mainly wanted to get this up quickly because of the one star reviews popping up so early complaining about the xbox 360 version. NOTHING is wrong or off about the xbox 360 version, it is fast, graphics are great, and no hiccups. I am completely satisfied with this purchase thus far. ***Official Review***(04/25/11) Mortal Kombat, what can I say, it's a great fighting game. I've never been much of a fighting game type of gamer but I have had my xbox 360 for about 4 years now and don't have a fighting game in my inventory, so it was about time I got one. I have childhood memories of watching a MK game go down at the local movie theater arcade, Cyrax shooting out his green net making his opponent an easy target, then I saw, "Finish Him" and a fatality took place, it blew my mind. Naturally, I was a bit intrigued when I first heard they were taking MK back to its roots with a 2D set up focusing on MK1-MK3. More and more videos came out and the moves, characters, backgrounds, extras all looked fantastic so I stop reading up on the game because I knew I was going to buy it, and here we are. I did get suckered into thinking Ed Boon had a treat for xbox 360 players from his interview with GiantBomb.com (fantastic gaming site by the way) with a new character and/or background, which he hasn't delivered on, but alas, the game is amazing, so good in fact that chances are you won't miss an additional character. The single player is huge in this game. The story mode alone took me about 10 hours from start to finish (2 nice unlocks upon completion). It's done in such a way that creates a seamless fighting experience. You're watching an in-game cinematic and when the fight is about to start the camera zooms back and viola, the fight begins, once that fight is over, the camera angle changes and the story continues, seamlessly. Once you're done with the story mode you can play the traditional arcade format where you move up the ladder of fighters until you fight the boss, or you can practice different fatalities, or just practice against a dummy opponent in practice mode. There is Test your Might, Test your Sight, and Test your Luck. If that wasn't enough, there is also tower to climb consisting of 300 stages! (apparently it's worth it to beat stage 300, something "special" happens) I'm on stage 62 and the difficulty seems to be a bit sporadic. For example, stage 44 is harder then stage 57. And yes, some of the stage's are downright annoying and not fun, like fighting an over powered scorpion that can dish out damage to you whenever he wants, but you only do damage to him while he's under a spot light that rotates around the map!!! Or like fighting Liu Kang who has normal stats but every time you hit him your hit damage decreases by 5%, etc. Completing all of the single player events will help you earn special koins which you can use to unlock things from the Krypt, most valuable things being additional fatalities and alternate costumes. Every character seems to get two fatalities and two different costumes. I have only tried online play a couple of times. The `King of the Hill' mode seems to be the most popular amongst players. It's a pretty cool set up. You enter a lobby and it's set up movie theater style where everyone waiting to fight watches the current two fighters duke it out. Once the fight is over you can give the winner of the fight a rating from 1-10. I know these ratings add up to an overall score for the fighter, but I'm not sure if there are unlocks associated with it or not, or if it's just bragging rights. Anyways, you get the idea, it's a good fighting game, pick this bad boy up! ***(05/04/11)A Heads Up Regarding the Challenge Tower*** I have beat the 300 level challenge tower by actually playing the various stages and paying (via Kombat Koins) my way through others. It was an awesome idea to allow the player to actually pay their way through if they wanted because it does get tedious and not that fun quickly, so that was a great design decision. What was not a great design decision was what you get when you complete the 300th stage, very very lame. It was mouth dropping in lameness. I'm not gonna spoil it for you, but believe me, it is not worth going through the 300 stages. If you are attempting the 300 stages because you're enjoying the variety each one offers then by all means have fun, but if your'e grinding through just to get the surprise at the end, don't bother, it sucks.

Assuming you're an MK supporter from the "old days" my highest score recommendation is meant for you. If you're not into MK I'd suggest knocking off 1 or 2 points just to play it safe. Though MK 2011 is awesome overall it has its' fair share of faults and they will be more jarring for those not intoxicated by the nostalgic ambrosia of the elder gods!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rest assured xbox 360 owners, Mortal Kombat is fantastic!
*by G***L on April 22, 2011*

I have just finished the story mode and have spent about 10 hours with the game, it is fantastic so far! More to come soon... I mainly wanted to get this up quickly because of the one star reviews popping up so early complaining about the xbox 360 version. NOTHING is wrong or off about the xbox 360 version, it is fast, graphics are great, and no hiccups. I am completely satisfied with this purchase thus far. ***Official Review***(04/25/11) Mortal Kombat, what can I say, it's a great fighting game. I've never been much of a fighting game type of gamer but I have had my xbox 360 for about 4 years now and don't have a fighting game in my inventory, so it was about time I got one. I have childhood memories of watching a MK game go down at the local movie theater arcade, Cyrax shooting out his green net making his opponent an easy target, then I saw, "Finish Him" and a fatality took place, it blew my mind. Naturally, I was a bit intrigued when I first heard they were taking MK back to its roots with a 2D set up focusing on MK1-MK3. More and more videos came out and the moves, characters, backgrounds, extras all looked fantastic so I stop reading up on the game because I knew I was going to buy it, and here we are. I did get suckered into thinking Ed Boon had a treat for xbox 360 players from his interview with GiantBomb.com (fantastic gaming site by the way) with a new character and/or background, which he hasn't delivered on, but alas, the game is amazing, so good in fact that chances are you won't miss an additional character. The single player is huge in this game. The story mode alone took me about 10 hours from start to finish (2 nice unlocks upon completion). It's done in such a way that creates a seamless fighting experience. You're watching an in-game cinematic and when the fight is about to start the camera zooms back and viola, the fight begins, once that fight is over, the camera angle changes and the story continues, seamlessly. Once you're done with the story mode you can play the traditional arcade format where you move up the ladder of fighters until you fight the boss, or you can practice different fatalities, or just practice against a dummy opponent in practice mode. There is Test your Might, Test your Sight, and Test your Luck. If that wasn't enough, there is also tower to climb consisting of 300 stages! (apparently it's worth it to beat stage 300, something "special" happens) I'm on stage 62 and the difficulty seems to be a bit sporadic. For example, stage 44 is harder then stage 57. And yes, some of the stage's are downright annoying and not fun, like fighting an over powered scorpion that can dish out damage to you whenever he wants, but you only do damage to him while he's under a spot light that rotates around the map!!! Or like fighting Liu Kang who has normal stats but every time you hit him your hit damage decreases by 5%, etc. Completing all of the single player events will help you earn special koins which you can use to unlock things from the Krypt, most valuable things being additional fatalities and alternate costumes. Every character seems to get two fatalities and two different costumes. I have only tried online play a couple of times. The `King of the Hill' mode seems to be the most popular amongst players. It's a pretty cool set up. You enter a lobby and it's set up movie theater style where everyone waiting to fight watches the current two fighters duke it out. Once the fight is over you can give the winner of the fight a rating from 1-10. I know these ratings add up to an overall score for the fighter, but I'm not sure if there are unlocks associated with it or not, or if it's just bragging rights. Anyways, you get the idea, it's a good fighting game, pick this bad boy up! ***(05/04/11)A Heads Up Regarding the Challenge Tower*** I have beat the 300 level challenge tower by actually playing the various stages and paying (via Kombat Koins) my way through others. It was an awesome idea to allow the player to actually pay their way through if they wanted because it does get tedious and not that fun quickly, so that was a great design decision. What was not a great design decision was what you get when you complete the 300th stage, very very lame. It was mouth dropping in lameness. I'm not gonna spoil it for you, but believe me, it is not worth going through the 300 stages. If you are attempting the 300 stages because you're enjoying the variety each one offers then by all means have fun, but if your'e grinding through just to get the surprise at the end, don't bother, it sucks.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ MORTAL KOMBAT!!!!!!!!
*by J***I on September 15, 2011*

If you are in your 30s, you know Mortal Kombat. It was the first game I can think of that had any kind of blood & gore, and boy oh boy did it get its fair share of flack from parents and the government alike. I was a MK "fanboy" I even bought a Sega Genesis just to have MK with the blood & fatalities in tact (The Super Nintendo version had grey "sweat" and less than fatal "fatalities"). However when MK went to 3D graphics & fighting plain, it lost something to me, and each new game became more and more complicated to play, almost to the point where I felt I needed a PhD to play it effectively. I had all but given up on MK... Then along comes MK9, or simply Mortal Kombat. A reboot, that has gone back to it's 2D roots, and kept the dazzeling 3D graphics! I was excited for a MK release for the first time in a long time, and my excitement was well placed. This IS Mortal Kombat! It is everything the old games were and much, much, more! The fighting engine is deep, but not overly complicated. Combos are easy to pull off, but not so easy as to do "button mashers" any good. The blood is there, but toned down a little bit, to make it more realistic. Fatalities are also not overly difficult to execute (pun intended lol) and are a plenty (each character has at least 3). So many modes I doubt I'll ever unlock everything. Online is easy to set up matches, and offers unlimited re-playability. All of these things together makes for an A+ title, but the thing that impressed me most, is the Story Mode. The Story Mode is the best of any fighting game I have ever played. It seamlessly blends the story with the Kombat, and every fight has a reason. The story covers at least all 3 original games (I'm still working on it and that's as far as I've gotten so far), and really fleshes out the MK story way more than the original games ever did. Most story modes in fighting games can be completed in an hour or two, but I have been working on MK's story mode for 3 nights straight, and still don't think it's coming to an end anytime soon. MK's Story Mode could be a game all by itself, and I would buy it! All-in-all, if you don't have Mortal Kombat yet, what are you waiting for? Pick this gem of a fighting game up now, you won't be disappointed! FYI: If you intend to play MK online (which I highly recommend), make sure you buy a new copy. If you buy used, chances are you will have to buy a Kombat Pass, unless for some reason the previous owner didn't use theirs. It will just save you money & aggravation in the long run to buy new. Which honestly you should do anyway. Support your game developers folks!
