Mortal Kombat: Deception, flawless victory?

MK DeceptionThe original Mortal Kombat started a frenzy, and the sequel simply blew our minds. Since then, the series had been on a downward spiral, until 2002's surprisingly refreshing installment, Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance. Now, Deception takes those same great concepts and simply propels them into a whole new dimension. More characters, with more moves, and of course, more fatalities! Add to that, more mini-games, a ginormous number of unlockables, and online kombat?! Why are you even reading this?! ...Alright, excuse the excitement, to be honest, we've still got our eyes on DoA Ultimate, but Deception has turned out to be a real contender for fighter of the year and will not disappoint newcomers or the undying fan base. No game is flawless, but Deception is not far off.
