This is quite fun. There are lots of stuff here to entertain you here. For starters, “Ladder Mode and “Training Modes” are standard. Then the new additions are the Story Mode, the Tower Challages, Tag Ladder, etc. These definitely add value to the game and are very welcome additions. Other things to keep you playing are the points you get for doing things. You use them to unlock item in the crypt. So there is an RPG element to this. Great gameplay mechanics, Not clunky. Other than that, it’s pretty much Mortal Kombat 3 minus the Run button. The graphics are great, until you start playing the Story Mode. Most of the character models in the cuts scenes look terrible such as Sonya, Johnny Cage, Liu Kang and Radian. On the other hand Jax, Human Sector and Shang Tsung look amazing! In all, there are some great additions but it doesn’t seem like a ground breaking sequel. Just more of the same with bonuses and tweaks.
Not being able to play online did not influence the score, as I assume it would be as fun as playing Super Street Fighter 4 (maybe even more with King of the Hill). I understand it’s not the game makers fault for the PSN being down. Unfortunately, I had 10 dollars put aside for the online pass but couldn’t use it.
