Well its out now, has anyone else had the pleasure of playing it yet? I purchased it yesterday, and it actually tore me away from GTA for a little while. The graphics are better, the Fatalities are filled with more blood, and the whole things plays really smoothly. The "other" games are not just filler as you would expect either. Puzzle Kombat (similar to tetris) is good fun, especially when you see miniature characters fighting at the bottom of the screen as you get rid of blocks. Chess Kombat is also surprisingly entertaining, having to play a round of MK each time you wish to take a piece from your opponent. And the Konquest mode is a good concept as well. You control a generic player, who has to learn moves etc to progress. It has a clockk in the corner, and you can unlock various items and characters depending on where you are and what time it is. Instead of waiting for hours, you can speed up time by meditating, interesting.

The story behind it follows on well from Deadly Alliance, and its good to see some of the old characters back, such as Baraka and Lui Kang. One of the better PS2 fighting games to be released, buy it now!

I might get it tommorow if its good. Should i really spend part of my £150 birthday money on it?
If you are a fan of the series it is a must, if you are only just getting into MK, then i would not be as sure. The extra modes are great, however they only really appeal to MK fans of some time (myself included). If you have never played a fighting game before, then i would say get Tekken or Street Fighter to get started.
I really, really enjoyed Deadly Alliance, a superb beat-em up which had me playing for ages, loved all the fatalities and unlockable features. The reviews I have seen so far haven't been great, but I'll probably put it on my Xmas list :)
Im a big MK fan but what certificate is it cause im only 15?

Sorry to brek it to you buddy, but as with many of the previous MK games, it is an 18 certificate.

Im getting it in a couple of hours so i will tell you what i think later.........
