The multiplayer is the best in the series with x-ray moves and the return of over-the-top gory fatalities instead of the toned-down ones of MKvsDC and the Kreate-a-Fatality system of Armageddon. But as with most games there is a glaring flaw that the CPU is incredibly cheap, not to mention any names --cough-- Shao Kahn --cough-- forcing you to stoop to their level just to win a round. plus the clunky controls that sometimes misread your actions resulting in a missed oppurtunity for a fatality. On a lighter note the DLC is a nice touch with retro skins adding a feel of nostalga to the characters and additional characters including Rain, Kenshi and Freddy Krueger. This is an excellent game and a good way to reboot the series for a new generation of gamers.
