I thought that this game would be like the original Mortal Combat, but i was disappointed. The graphics are good, but it is really boring on career mode, and very difficult to unlock new characters.

Deadly Alliance was the first new outing for Midway with sixth generation systems PS2 and Xbox. The game adds new features to the Mortal Kombat franchise and has a ton of replay value with loads of extras including unlockable secret characters, bonus art, and the groundbreaking Konquest mode. In comparison to Deception and Armageddon, Deadly Alliance just seems better and more original. It doesn't suffer from badly implemented new features present in Deception and contrived storylines present in Armageddon. In addition, Deception axed a number of characters from Deadly Alliance's roster just like the Mortal Kombat 2 did for the original MK1. Whereas this first tactic worked in the 90's, it just failed to deliver this time around.
The new mixed weapons combat system that Deadly Alliance uses works most of the time. The weapons system seems to have been copped from the Soul Calibur series. Once the player learns the various nuances of each character's fighting styles they can incorporate counter moves accordingly in the heat of battle. In arcade mode, I found myself rapidly switching between styles to counter my opponent's assault. This is the key to achieving success in Deadly Alliance. One gripe though is that the fighting style would always reset to default at the end of the round. The player has to quickly switch back or get caught off guard. Costing precious seconds and giving the opponent the upper hand to pull of a fast series combos for quick damage.

This game is a good solid mortal kombat game. A lot of characters and original ones like sub-zero and jax etc. Its pretty fun considering the 3 different fighting styles and moderatly different moves in each style. The only problem is after you play it for a long time it gets boring doing the same thing over and over and over again just with different characters. But it does somewhat pay off since you get to spend your koins to unlock so many different things, like a lot of extra characters. So overall this game is pretty good and recommend if you dont spend a lot on it.

This is the best Mortal Kombat game ever! I love it and I am sure that any one who plays it will love it. Graphics are great, has many new characters like Kenshi,Bo Rai Cho,and Frost. It also has many olds characters like Scorpion,Sub Zero,Jax,Reptile,Kung Lao,and Sonya. This is the best Mortal Kombat game ever and believe me I've played every MK game out there. I have many other reviews on MK stuff so if you want to see more of my reviews search Mortal Kombat (ON AMAZON.COM)and pick out any thing on that page.Also look for my Logo which is SMK that most the time is at the bottom of the review but might also be at the top by my title. OUT!

Yeah, I know. Scary concept.
I got this baby in an attempt to make sense of Deception. And let me tell you, it is everything that Mortal Kombat: Deception is. Maybe a little more here and a little less there, but it is pretty equal in all resepcts.
Speaking of Deception, I've got to admit that this game made me like Deception's konquest mode a little more. Maybe because this game's konquest was a little annoying at times (although quite funny at others, and nessecary in the long run); maybe because, once I knew the plot of Deadly Alliance, I had some idea of what was going on in the other.
Deadly Alliance's fight-play has, in fact, a little, tiny bit more depth to it. This is because of the little black button, which allows you to, depending on your style of kung fu, grab an opponent, or regain some health (via taunting, how else?) or impale an enemy with your weapon. Depending on the weapon. A dissapointment comes from the fact that you have to use the d-pad to kontrol your character; other than that, it's cool. The graphics are crisp and clean, except when your opponent is covered in blood.
The extra features are a little less than Deception's, but that's "okay," since this wasn't supposed to be a grab-bag. And what extras are there are fun anyway, so, who's complaining?
As I said before, this made me appreciate konquest a little more. It's nice to know that there can be plot in a Mortal Kombat game (I found, by the way, the plot to be tight and focused, although I prefer Deception's plot). Basically, this Mortal Kombat is for anyone who doesn't know what's going on in Deception. No previous knowledge of Mortal Kombat is really nessecary, but it can't hurt to know who Scorpion and Sub-Zero are.
