Like the title says best mortal kombat game i've ever played, and I've played them all, i really don't care for mk x or 9 or any that came out after mk 4, they change the fighting mechanics and I'm a pro at the combo which they should have kept, Mk 9 and x look good but has terrible gameplay compared to triology, only 12 care about graphics more than gameplay, Mk having all these characters freddy Kruger, and predator, and jason Voorhees, which is really stupid, and those brutalites they just look like fatalities compared to mk trology brutalities, and you get to play as boss charcters without beatingvthe game or putting in any codes, I've beating every ladder, so much fun, i recommend you buy than any othe mk game.
