ANY VIDEO GAME FAN HAS PLAYED THIS GAME AT LEAST ONCE IN THEIR LIFETIME. AND EVEN THOUGH THIS GAME REALLY RESEMBLES THE ORIGINAL ARCADE VERSION FOR THIS GAME, THE FATALITIES AND THE GORE [WHICH WAS CONTROVERSIAL AT THE TIME AND CAUSED ALL VIDEO GAMES TO HAVE RATING LABELS ON THEM] ARE MISSING! SO THAT MEANS AFTER THE FIGHTS ARE OVER, NO FATALITIES, ALL YOU CAN DO IS FINISH YOUR OPPONENT OFF WITH A REGULAR MOVE. BUT, EVEN WITH THE FACT THAT IS A TAMED VERSION OF THE ARCADE FAVORITE, I STILL ENJOYED THIS GAME! THERE'S 7 CHARACTERS TO CHOOSE FROM, WHICH ARE LIU KANG, KATO, JOHNNY CAGE, RAIDEN, SCORPION, SUB ZERO, AND SONYA. THE GAME IS FILLED WITH GREAT GRAPHICS AND EASY TO LEARN GAMEPLAY. THE BEST CHARACTERS TO PLAY WITH ARE SUB ZERO, SCORPION, AND RAIDEN. THIS WAS STILL A FUN GAME AND IF YOU WANNA ADD ONE OF THE GREATEST FIGHTING GAMES EVER MADE TO YOUR VIDEO GAME COLLECTION, GET THIS GAME WHEREVER YOU CAN FIND A COPY OF IT!! VERSIONS TO AVOID; SEGA GENESIS, GAME BOY, AND GAME GEAR.
