Mortal Kombat: Armageddon (Sony PlayStation 2, 2006)

If you like bringing back old Mortal Komabat characters, then this is your game. 60+ characters to play plus there is a Kreate-a-fighter mode that lets you build and custimize your own characters with basic moves and specialized moves. Besides all this, there is Konquest mode and Motor Kombat(MK racing)! With pwerful combo attacks and the fatality system it is great fighting game. The game has a ESRB rating of Mature 17+ and is well earned for blood and violence. Most of the arenas have deathtraps on them too, making more than one way to defeat your opponent. Overall, it is a really good fighting game, but if you have kids playing it, turn the blood level off.

This game is the final one of the series for current generation consoles. the next batch of mortal kombat games will land on the newer systems, including Xbox 360, PS3, and nintendo Wii.
i personally think this is one of the best games in the whole series.
with over 60 fighters to choose from, a make your own fighter mode with millions of possibilities, a brand new fatality system where you create your own string of combos to finish off your opponent. and a fun new side game, Motor Kombat, which is a lot like the old mario kart games with mortal kombat fighters as racers, and MK related tracks. its a very fun diversion.
also the games is playable ONLINE! so you can make your dream fighter and take it online to see how good he really is.

if you purchase the Premium version you get an extra DVD with a movie called "the history of fatalities" where the creators of the game talk about the fatalities from the very first mortal kombat right up to the last game, armeggedon.
also on that disc, is the "cards" that are bios on most of the fighters.
you also get another bonus, the game UMK3 (ultimate mortal kombat 3) thats playable. not online though.

there are over 30 arenas to play in, lots of new ones and some old ones. some fun new death traps. and enough content to keep you busy for many many months.

i very much reccomend this game.

Despite all the bad reviews out there for this game, I rather like it. Ok, so the fighting engine isn't as fast or as fluent as other titles, but this remains an arcade style game that's a lot of fun to play. The Kreate A Fighter option didn't impress me at all, but the Konquest mode did as it gets very challenging. I do like being able to knock other fighters into burning lava, spikes, fans, and everything else, lol. The air Kombat really adds a new level to the game as well. The biggest plus I found was that almost all of the characters are unlocked to play in versus mode right from the start!!

Pros: Tons of fun to play with your friends as well as in Konquest mode. Lots of characters to get you going, with only a few locked away.

Cons: No two player Konquest mode and an aging fight engine.

The best of the series.What more could you ask for...every character,many of the old stages &create a character(A very indepth creation theme).I was left feeling that they could have left out the motor kombat and added more of the premade characters special moves to the create a fighter & the same goes for the voices...only 6 to choose from.A good example is you can create a very good accurate bruce Lee character in 10 minutes, but you cannot give any appropiate voice such as Liu Kangs.Oh well, nothing is perfect in this world.last problem I noticed is you cannot backup save your game?!.If something happens to your original save, your out of luck...and that happened to me in the first week.

Armageddon redines Mortal Kombat. Being the last Mortal Kombat game on the PS2 I'm sure all fans will enjoy it. The Kreate-A-Fighter system makes what you want a fighter to be a reality. With all characters from the series (minus khameleon) the roster of fighters is massive. Blaze, Taven, and Daegon are also new kombatabts to try. Konquest keeps you enjoyed for a while as well. The inclusion of a Broadband connection make going online fun so now you can test your skills against other players. If you have a PS2 get this game. If not wait for its Wii release.
