    Mortal Kombat is a fun, engaging game with entertaining combat that has enough variety in character construction, game play, and melee combos to provide unending replay ability. Read more

    It's hard to argue with the millions of people who will buy and then play Call of Duty: Black Ops and say that this is a disappointing video game. Read more

    • Coherent story, Balanced multiplayer, Slick presentation, Great production values
    • Still a shooting gallery, Multiplayer requires a commitment, Short single player

    Treyarch finally gets to make a "real" Call of Duty title and delivers one of the year's best games. Read more

    • Tons of multiplayer additions; strong story with memorable characters; wager matches are a blast; Theater mode; Call of Duty fans will continue to love it.
    • No more Spec Ops; story doesn't live up to its potential; if you don't like Call of Duty, this won't change your tune.

    One last footnote for TheHDRoom readers who fancy a good Easter Egg. You can escape from the restraints in the main menu. Find the old DOS computer and type in CD , press 'enter' and then type DOA . Have fun! Read more

    • Stunning visuals, Excellent audio and voice casting, Huge Replay value, Captivating story arcs, Zombies are back, Longer campaign
    • Some AI issues, Rare but present frame rate drops

    Playing god is a risky business; there are always unforeseen consequences. Case in point: my worshipers settle a new village upon an island -- only to find their homes washed away by regular tsunamis. Read more

    I like this game specially it is in Full HD 1080P; however, I don't see any gore in the game for this version, but I hope they do bring the gore back. Read more

    When this game was new, it was $59.99. If I had paid that much for it, I'd want to fatality myself. However, now that the price has come down to a comical level, it's not as bad. Read more

    • It's a Mortal Kombat game with DC characters in it. If you're a big fan of either franchise you should be happy about that. The price on this game has dropped tremendously.
    • Arcade mode is garbage with typical Mortal Kombat AI. Super easy for the first few stages, then impossible for the next ones. They started this with MKII and haven't changed it since. The game basically becomes you running...

    To be honest From Dust caught me by suprise as I thought it was going to be something different. I love a good god game but I've never played one such as this, they say its like Populous (a 1989 game developed by Bullfrog)... Read more

    The first thing that springs to mind when loading up Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe is simply: “weird mix”. MK ’s vicious, gothic clique are naturally at home in the dank, seediness of Earthrealm, which has for so long... Read more

    • Story mode is nicely handled; some great fighters; solid mix of moves
    • Fatalities; inconsistent character-balancing; combat engine is dated
