Mortal Kombat: Armageddon User Reviews (PS2)

PangTong_Blademaster's Review

Mortal Kombat is one of those timeless fighting series such as Street Fighter that always comes crashing back to fight over the fighting crown. Armageddon was released in early 2006, it being one of the most recent Mortal Kombat games and it was my first. It takes place in a fantasy universe where opposing factions and clans are always fighting. With many features including Konquest mode, Kreate a fighter and the more unusual; Motor Kombat, Armageddon was most definitely a worthy purchase and it also offers the entire Mortal Kombat roster of roughly 64 characters all with alternate costumes. With the newest Mortal Kombat title: Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe I thought I would take some time to fall back on an old Playstation 2 game that puts the jewel in the fighter genre's crown.

Story

If you want to learn of the great narrative the only way to do so is by playing Konquest mode which triggers the story behind Armageddon....

THE GOOD:
The opening is great,very exciting to watch,every character to ever set foot in Mortal Kombat is present,Kreate-A-Karacter mode to create custom characters!!!,emulation of older MK 3 included,Motor Kombat that surpases Crash Tag Team Racing,lots of battle stages.

THE BAD:
The Krypt's interface worsened(bring back the coffins!),Konquest mode improved but still sucks in storyline,custom fatalities is fun but it was better the way it was,only 2 fighting syles per person(hand-to-hand and weapon),final boss sucks.

Mortal Kombat Armageddon is the second greatest MK game up till now (with first being Deception).Everyone can see the improvements but still things get too confused sometimes.

Story:
Now you may ask what kind of 3-D fighting game has a story...well most don't but the MK has been following a storyline from the start. Basically, the MK fighters have grown too many and too...

THE GOOD:
64 characters!
A better Konquest Mode
Motor Kombat
Cool bonuses for the Premium Edition
Kreate a Fighter Mode! (KAF)

THE BAD:
The Krypt is more lacking this time.
The new fatality system isn't that good.
Khameleon and a couple other minor characters aren't playable.

SUMMARY:
The overall difficulty of this game is around Normal. All modes are easy, except Hard and Max

This game has been bashed and considered a disappointment by fans, which I completly disagree with. He's my review of the game to tell you why this game shouldn't be bashed as much as it is.

Okay so this is the seventh Mortal Kombat fighting game (Not counting updates, ports and re-makes, such as Mortal Kombat Trilogy). What makes this a great game for me is the huge character roster (Over 60!) with almost every Mortal Kombat character in history making a return. Also, the Konquest mode is...
