Mortal Kombat Gold is a very good game, but don't expect it to be a Mortal Kombat 5. They should have just called the game Mortal Kombat 4, because it is just like this one. Except in this one  the graphics are better, the sound is better, there are more characters, and more levels. But it still has exactly the same plot as Mk4. The new characters aren't very good, and the modes are exactly the same as 4. While it has about 3 new levels, the rest are from Mortal Kombat 4. If you don't have Mortal Kombat 4, I would recommend getting this. But it is basically another Mortal Kombat 4 with some new features.
