Mortal Kombat: Deception

My favorite Mortal Kombat game. The graphics are great. The character models, battle damage and blood look better than Deadly Alliance. The soundtrack is good but I like Deadly Alliance more. The sound is reused from Deadly Alliance but the voice acting and sound effects sound way better. The gameplay has been improved with the combo breaker mechanic, death traps, Hara Kiri's and the classic two fatalities system. I love the way that they brought back classic stages from the original Mortal Kombat, Mortal Kombat 2 and Deadly Alliance. I also love that they brought back classic characters like they did with Deadly Alliance. The only thing I don't like is the Konquest Mode. It is a good mode but it's too short and the emphasis on finding collectible chests in which some of them are really hard to find and to unlock most of the extras, team photos, stages, costumes and fighters that are in the Krypt can get really irritating. I hate the way if you wanted to learn moves and battle classic characters you had to find them, then practice their moveset then go to a different area and fight someone else and unlock items which I found to be very time consuming as you already have practice mode to use and you can buy unlockables in the krypt. The ending is bad and Shujinko is dumb. They should have stayed with the Deadly Alliance version of Konquest mode as it was easier to earn money and you could buy the things you wanted in the Krypt. Another thing I didn't like is that some of the new characters and their fatalities are bad but not as terrible as Deadly Alliance. Most of the new and classic characters used recycled win animations which was a cheap thing to do. The game's arcade mode is WAY too short with only 6 fights as Deadly Alliance had much more and I think the Hara Kiri's were a waste of time. Overall, A great Mortal Kombat game. Buy it.

Expands and refines the formula of its predecessor. This is the best of the three MK fighters available on the Xbox. It's a slick fighter with a fun campaign and tons of content that can be unlocked in the "Krypt". Unlike "Deadly Alliance", this one included online play. It also added "Konquest", a single player online mode and a "Tetris"-like puzzle game. Overall, "Deception" is a ton of fun. I would rate it with an 8.5 out of 10.

Great fighting game with a decent story. This game has so much variety to it with a lot of modes and collectables in the form of pictures, music and videos. They put so much into this game, I wish some of the later games would've had as much content as this game did. In terms of the regular gameplay, I prefer the 2011 MK over this one, but it's still fun.

Mortal Kombat's jump to the 3D fighter world was as fun, yet extremely awkward. The movement is nowhere near the level that games like Virtua Fighter, Dead or Alive and Tekken are at. The combos, even the more intricate juggles were all easy to figure out within a few hours of having the game, and some characters just feel stronger than others. Mileena can do a 9 hit combo that involves juggling and popping back up enemies for 30% damage, while Kobra and Scorpion can get that in a 4 or 5 hit BnB combo. Most of us know by now Mortal Kombat is not the most intricate and execution heavy fighters around, and the main draw isn't the fighting at all, but the fatalities after the fact, because even if your brains are gone, you can probably still play Mortal Kombat. The game is a decent attempt at a 3D fighter, and is certainly fun, but ultimately is overshadowed by its 3D fighter contemporaries.

En general los juegos que involucran cierta cantidad de sangre de por si pueden ser desagradables, pero los de Mortal Kombat son muy sangrientos e inapropiados (con cosas tan feas que ni siquiera voy a escribirlas), no sé cómo es que no está prohibido y eliminado en todo el mundo (nadie debería jugarlo, tiene cosas fuertes y brutales, en el mal sentido), que a nadie se le ocurra comprarle eso a sus hijos porque es muy mala influencia.
