For people who do not have the game yet like me can i read some reviews from real MK fans on MK Deception please. A rating out of ten would be great. Just help us non-owners of the game get a good idea of the new MK and what we can expect, thanks heaps.

Fighting in Arcade; 7/10: Basic Deadly Alliance, with some new stuff, but nothing special. The deathtraps are fun, especially for online play when your opponent is doing 10 and higher hit combos and you can just shove them right off the cliff, or what not. Combo breakers come in handy a lot. Onaga is one of the best bosses ever. Great cast as well.
Chess; 8/10: Very addictive for me, and very challenging. One round per fight for square, and once you knock out your opponents main piece, it automatically performs a fatality, which is a nice touch to the end of a chess match. wink
Puzzle; 8/10: Also very addictive, the fatalities at the end of matches are very cool and funny, but the only let down for me is it takes too long to go through and beat everyone in a regular puzzle type tournament, like beating regular arcade mode.
Online Play; 10/10: 3 words. Never Gets Old. It really never does, especially with great experienced players online, there are always people that will give you a run for your money and there are a few, not to name any names, that will ALWAYS kick your ass. LOL
Extras; ?/?: Can't really say much since not all of the secrets are discovered yet. If there are Super Unlockables, it will definately increase the extra's value, point wise, in my opinion. But the extras from the Krypt I like. Especially the full cinematic of the Baraka vs Mileena fight from the very first trailer. So, all in all, Mortal Kombat: Deception, in my opinion, gets an 8/10. And trust me, I don't rank games easily. I know of a lot of games that I, personally, will never even rent for a day. (1 example: Celebrity Deathmatch *shudders at the thought*)
Thanks kenshimaster. I like your format rating every game mode and then an overall score. It really does help me to get a good idea of what MK fans actually think about MK:D, keep those reveiws coming!

Control=7/10 Sometimes when you try to do a certain move, and this time a certain combo nothing happens which leaves you open to getting attacked yourself
Graphics=9/10 Real people would have been better but hey, it is still way cool
Sound=10/10 You even get some old music from past MK games in the game as well
Konquest=9.5/10 I'd only give it 9.5 because some of the missions are extremely difficult, and some make no sence at all. One such mission i when you have to beat someone within 15 seconds!
Chess=4/10 Chess is very boring to me. I am an avid chess player, and this is no match for real chess.
Puzzel Kombat=2/10 Very, very boring. Sometimes it takes forever to finally win the game, and then to find out you have to do it again! It is a nightmare to me.
Arenas=9/10 Some excellent arenas including some with death traps. Still there are points you can still get stuck with only a small space to move around
Characters=8/10 The older ones have gotten boring to play as and the new ones don't seem to be interesting either.
Fatalities=5/10 They haven't gotten better, and there is even one finisher that two kombatants have. Tanya, and Dairou. The only thing new here is the option to have two.
Hari Kiri=4/10 Don't get me wrong but when the somputer does a Hara Kiri every time to prevent you from doing your own finisher it can realy get on your nerves.
Overall Gameplay=7/10 All we have here is MKDA with a few more fighters, and a few extra finishers that don't beat out MKDA. Still mostly every fatality/finisher is somrthing involving the head. Where is Scorpion's Toasty?
My Overall Rating=6/10
I didn't know any of the Fatalities, or finishers when I first played the game. PLaying the game I was upset at how bad the controls were compared to MKDA. In MKDA the controlls were better, and smoother, and in MKD they are choppy and sometimes unresponsive. Konquest is the only thing keeping me interested here. Way to go Midway with in my opinion another disappointing MK game.
