Mortal Kombat 4
Reviewed by Netman
Mortal Kombat 3 may be one of the very best games around, and it
easily the best fighting game on Nintendo 64. With it's 3D graphics,
and great sound, it is a great buy! Even non Mortal Kombat fans will
like this! With 15 fighters of pure polygons, they are ready to bust
up anyone who dares challenge them
Graphics 9.5 out of 10
Mortal Kombat 4 has great graphics, and it is running at an incredibly
fast 60 fps! Just like the arcade! there is only little polygonal break up
when a stage gets at the wrong angle. But besides that, almost arcade
perfect. The fatalities are just awesome in 3D (you should see Liu Kangs
dragon!!!!) It is really cool.
Music and Sound 9 out of 10
The sound is great, the screams and moans are cool, and rock in surround
sound! but the only flaw is some sounds are weird (why does Raiden so
oh my leg when he gets hit in the face?), Other than that, the music in the
game is really cool, and some is better than others (the music on the
snake stage rocks!!!!), and the sound FX is cool. Especially when you
pick up a rock.
Game Challenge 10 out of 10
With 7 difficulty levels, and many many modes of play, this game has
a high replay value! here are many features.
-arcade (1 on 1, 2 on 2)
-tournament (basically the same as Mortal kombat trilogy) Endurance modes
(1 player, 2 players, Ultimate (only the best players will be able
to beat ultimate!)) team modes (very fun) practice mode (in case
you want to learn how to be cheap, the 2 player practice rocks!!!!)
and a options mode that can seriously alter game play!
Game Play-Fun 9.9 out of 10
I can't quit playing this game! why? Because it is just plain fun!
There is so many combo's that you can mix and match, and all the
fatalities are fun to do and watch! The Versus Screen Codes make
the game even funnier! try the big head code (321-321) for some mega
laughs! I couldn't stop laughing! they look so funny! and some screams
are pretty funny too (oh my leg!). But the best part is playing the game
through, and seeing the endings, they are really cool, cause they
are actually animated! really cool sounds!
Rumble Pak 9 out of 10
The rumble pack always goes on just at the right times! Especially
in the fatalities! and when you get hit, it rumbles just right, the
only thing that keeps it from being a perfect 10 is that it rumbles
too much, and drains the batteries!
Frustration
The computer can be very cheap when It wants too, but I just be
cheap back, the REAL frustration is Goro, his throw takes off
40% and it is not possible to beat him with some people, he is
very cheap! as well as Tanya! If you want a fair fight, don't choose
a tower with Tanya on it! She is very cheap!
Replayability 9.5 out of 10
I can never leave this game alone!! Because all the characters have
different endings, and all the modes of play, it draws you in... very
good purchase, especially for the amount of hours you get out of it!
Game Value 10 out of 10
This Game is very worth the price! You get many hours out of this
game. The price is a small price to pay for a near perfect arcade
translation of the game, and you save a lot of quarters!
Overall 9.5 out of 10
This game is a very good buy! You will get many hours of fun and
enjoyment out of this game, except when fighting against Goro,
but oh well, I recommend it any day, any time, it is better than
a rental! if you rent it, you will feel like you need to get it. If you
are a Mortal Kombat fan, go out and get in NOW! It is a very fun
game, and stands true to other Mortal Kombat games, way better.
So, if you think you will like it, then go buy it!! It is way funnier
than it sounds!
