The most fun I've ever had playing a beat-em up game. This game is one of the most fun co-op games on the PS2.
I had mixed thought when I bought this and feared it would be a let down since I was several years removed from playing my last Mortal Kombat game.
The biggest (and only) problem with the game turned out to be that a few levels just had annoying camera angles that really made gameplay frustrating.
The arenas are pretty enough to look at, but graphically and sound wise the game is really nothing special.
The game gets good once you start fighting the hordes of baddies. Basic button combos is all you need as you mash your way to victory. This is a good thing because it lets wives and girlfriends in the action as well.
Strategy is there, its justn ot crucial, and you can always bump the difficulty down to make it a true mashing frenzy.
All the characters are there - and it's a really fresh game with how the MK team worked them all in.
One of the cooles parts of the game is that you can fight in the air and rip off just ridiculous 20+ hit combos which make you feel really cool.
The levels are different, the storyline is servicable and the fun is through the roof. Anyone looking for a superb co-op game for a beat em up gem...this is it.
