    Mortal Kombat: Armageddon is an MK fan’s wettest dream, but even those few new to the series will find it hard not to love this game.

    It's a blast to play and it includes a ton of extra content making it one of the most satisfying Mortal Kombats ever.

    While much of the game play remains faithful to previous Mortal Kombat titles, the developers how gone to painstaking measures to bring new modes and interesting features to their franchise to keep it fresh like deli meat.

    If you're a Mortal Kombat fan, this is the mother lode: a torrent of available characters(58 to start)fight and die for your pleasure; the Shaolin Monks-style Konquest mode is the best yet; and the Motor Kombat Kart racer mini-game is silly fun. [Holiday 2006, p.79]

    With more characters than anyone could possibly master in one lifetime and plenty of variety in the form of Motor Kombat (we’re still laughing after playing this) and the Konquest adventure mode, not to mention the scary number of unlockables to be found, it’s enough to make you start daydreaming at what they could do on the next gen consoles.
  6. PSW Magazine UK

    Armageddon is fine. Nothing special, but not bad, and its Konquest mode is probably the perfect game for that Saturday afternoon period just before the footy kicks off, when your head still hurts from Friday.

    It's time for Mortal Kombat to go. [Dec. 2006, p.126]

    The 3D Mortal Kombat games, as much as they aren't traditional 3D fighters like Soul Calibur, Tekken and Dead or Alive, are still kind of funThe 3D Mortal Kombat games, as much as they aren't traditional 3D fighters like Soul Calibur, Tekken and Dead or Alive, are still kind of fun in their own right. This one has every character to date of release that has ever been in a Mortal Kombat game, and while that sounds great, the balance is horrible. The games saving grace is the wonky combo system and finding out how to get around it and reset animations or quickly switch stances to get death combos. Doing that with certain characters was the funnest part of the game, not even the game itself.… Expand
