    It's not quite perfect but it's as close as you can get on the PSP for now, and until they design a new MK release specifically for Sony's handheld, this is definitely a worthwhile purchase for beat 'em up fans who enjoy the gore and novelties that the MK series has always provided.

    The loading times are a bit long, but once the limbs begin to fly, it’s hard to deny this game’s gory charm.

    This is what fans have been waiting for. This is the definitive Mortal Kombat title for handhelds. You have more fatalities, self-fatalities (hara-kiri), stage fatalities, more characters, four deep modes of play, unlockable Krypt items, and online play.

    Don't be surprised if the strategic Chess Kombat and the Super Puzzle Fighter-esque Puzzle Kombat overshadow Unchained's main event. [Feb. 2007, p.83]

    Due to some system constraints, poor camera issues and control problems, a great game is literally relegated to a just decent fighter on the handheld.

    Based on 2004's Mortal Kombat: Deception, this version gains some extra characters but little else to make it worthwhile for fans of Midway's gory fighting-game series.

    Inspired from the somewhat average Mortal Kombat: Deception on PlayStation 2, this reduced version features too many omissions to be as enjoyable.
