Just as I refuse to acknowledge most low scores, I'm also rather adverse to believing the hype of very high scores like Giant Bomb's. Reviewers are just glorified opinions, and obviously some people will absolutely hate any game, no matter how good, and some will genuinely like really crummy games, making their scores really nothing more than personal bias.

Not trying to be a downer, just saying that reviews, both high and low, should be taken with a grain of salt, and a rental at the very least to see how the game flies for YOU. If you like it, great, go buy it. If you don't? Then you don't have to spend the money on it and you can wait patiently for the next genuine MK game.

Definitely see your point of view. Which is why I recommend metacritc.com as it averages out all reviews for each title. It also has a user review score beside their score which helps with any political non-sense that might occur.

lulz. a perfect score. no.

that review is way to high i've been playing mortal kombat since 93 i think that this is the worst fighting i've seen in any other mortal kombats. i'm very disapointed in this game and i'am a loyal fan of mortal kombat this is just terrible.
