Deception was a horrible game from a design standpoint, continuity standpoint, balance standpoint, and a competitive standpoint. There was absolutely nothing good about that game except for the hype around it, and when the game finally came out it was complete trash.

For competitive gamers, the engine was horrid and was somehow made worse than Deadly Alliance's. For story fans, the storyline didn't make any sense and suddenly there's tons of new people and people who should've been deceased. It was just a terrible game through and through.

I'm not holding my breath for a new MK fighting game that is even half decent. Shaolin Monks has been the best MK in years, and that wasn't even a fighting game. They need to take the series completely in that direction.
