The fun factor of the 2 player mode makes this game just a joy to play.

If you enjoy playing Mortal Kombat then you will enjoy a different twist on an old classic. In this version you take on the role of Liu Kang and Kung Lao as they work there way through different areas of the game in order to find Shang Tsung and stop him from becoming more powerful and being able to take over Earth Realm.
The adventure is pretty easy to grasp as the moves are taught to you during the first stage. Once you master the simple configuration of moves the game becomes very easy. The enemies range from too simple to really hard but overall they arent much of a match for 2 experienced gamers. The game soon becomes really fun as you work your way through several stages teaming up to find powerups and secrets.
The one main downfall is the game is way too short. I know I never found all the secrets but I was able to defeat the game with a co-op partner in under 6 hours at 54%.

Overall the game was a joy to play as we had to learn different moves and fatalities along with beating up many many enemies that seem to know all the moves you do. Definately worth playing for any MK fan or just a fan of a fun co-op experience.
