Pros
Pro Grotesque, gruesome imagery
As expected with the franchise, the violence and gore to be found within are quite over the top. While nothing is excessively mean spirited it can actually be quite fun to rip the spine out of someones back.
Pro Has the most coherent single-player story of any fighting game
As ludicrous as it may seem, Mortal Kombat features on of the most detailed and coherent story found in a fighting game. Every character has a connection the the main plot that once all story missions are played with each character the overall story will really astound. After all the main story is the re-telling of the story from the first three games in the franchise, which is quite a lot to tell in one game.
Pro Most of the old favorite characters return
Cons
Con Laggy online play
The online multiplayer of the game can often have a good bit of lag, which can really ruin the experience for a fighting game.
