    This game will blow you away, any true MK fighter should not be without. The only let down is the reduction of fatalities. If you don't already own a copy, get one now!!

    This game kicks! The replay value is excellent, and no one can get enough of smashing your friend's face in, and executing those brutal fatalities! The characters are great, and old ones such as Scorpion, Cyrax, and SubZero, look better than ever! This game is a must get!!

    This game was great, though the computer can whip up some ass kickin' and totally annoying combos.

    Tons of fun!!! A lot of characters, more than a lot unlockable secrets and a solid combat sistem. The most beautiful thing are the different combat styles that create one o f the best combo system ever made in a beat'em up!!!

    An incredible game indeed.. but the only one thing that i dont like about this game is the fact that you have to buy the characters.. why do u ? Mortal Kombat has really grown what a tremendous sucess!

    This is a great game except that moloch is way to hard to beat and the fatalities could be better.

    I just can't understand why everybody thinks this game rocks? It's just no good.The only reason why this game is any good in everybody's eyes, is because it has blood and gore.Well, I can asure you that this doesn't make a great, let alone a great game.

    This game is just the best. The Krypt is an amzing idea and it will take ages to get every single secret in the game. I agree that Ali Baba is an idiot who probably doesn't have the game just wanting to ruin an excellent game's overall score. Don't be fooled! BUY THIS GAME!

    A new-look and refreshment that the franchise needed already exists!What else more would a gamer need??...Liu kang perhaps!... I already feel exausted from the intense gameplay and realistic graphics! Not to mention the brutal fatalities...

    This is the best mortal kombat game so far although it could use more cheat codes.

    Well I belive that Midway has improved alot but some of the things I found that I am very limited to players because I don't own a Meomry card Plus I hated what happened to Lu Kang also The Fattalaties should be easier to do and also it would be alot easier to just battle and beat the player that you want to unlock.

    This game rocks, not just because of all the blood but it has a lot more than any of the other mortal kombat games, such as the krypt and konquest, I think its great that you get money and get to unlock arenas and a lot of other stuff, and I think its better that you can actually train in a character of your choice, plus the graphics are great! The characters are cool too, and so are This game rocks, not just because of all the blood but it has a lot more than any of the other mortal kombat games, such as the krypt and konquest, I think its great that you get money and get to unlock arenas and a lot of other stuff, and I think its better that you can actually train in a character of your choice, plus the graphics are great! The characters are cool too, and so are there fatality?s. In my opinion the only flaw in this game is the character endings I think that they c should be more like the fourth game the endings in that game were great they were more like movies, in this game they are just stories, the story line is great though.… Expand

    Just don´t give it a 10 because there is only 1 Fatality per character. Multiple fighting styles was a nice addition. Scorpion and Raiden look great, too. And... Liu Kang, it is high time you went to Hell...

    Some of the new characters are lame, and some fighting styles are under developed, but the story line is better than ever and the classic characters are great.

    Not the best fighter on the Gamecube, but it still has enough gameplay elements and unlockables to keep you busy. Besides, there's no better way to vent some stress than to dish out a few fatalities.

    Easily the most hard-hitting MK in the series yet. [Jan 2003, p.100]
