Is it just me or does anyone else agree that MK deception was the most complete package out of the four 6th generation console MK releases? I think it had a great list of characters, the best konquest and story, really great new arenas and great flashback arena remakes, and it also had great mini games and multiplayer. MK armageddon was a great game and had some awesome things going for it that hadn't been done in an MK game yet like kreate a fighter, but it had some slop to it like terrible endings and a cheesy and unemotional konquest that didn't have you attached like MK deceptions konquest.

I was just thinking about this today. I'm glad this topic came up.

I don't even consider MK:Armageddon to be a serious game. It was just made to please the fans by having EVERY SINGLE CHARACTER OMGWTF. It threw the story completely down the drain.

MK:D, on the other hand, had character bios and origins, and a very complete and comprehensive storyline that left enough things open for there to be an equally as good continuation in another game. Teh Konquest Mode was full, and explained completely and in (painfully) fine detail the origin of Shujinko, whom I consider to be a full-fledged Mortal Kombat character. Taven and Daegon don't even compare to Shujinko in terms of story or relevance. Half the characters in Armageddon have no explanation as to why they're there. MK:D made sure to have some sort of reason for a character's appearance.

They had a good thing going with MK:DA, and it continued to become even greater in MK:D. Unfortunately, everything fell apart in MK:A.

Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks was an excellent game as well but people probably spent the most time with Mortal Kombat: Deception so I guess yes.

In game bio's would have made a big difference in relavence. They didn't even finish the Online bio's.

Because DA focused on gameplay. The whole game was based off the fight and was a new and fresh idea to the MK franchise. Deception only thought of design plus it wasn't really finished. Also the bar of oppertunity? Really?

So what, MKD was more complete since it was an improved version of MKDA with more characters, arenas, modes, etc. the only thing that wasn't as complete as in MKDA was the krypt. Period.

MKD was the first 3D MK i've ever played, and I loved it. I still have fond memories going through the konquest mode. Plus all those other special modes. I too agree that it is the most complete, MKA is just a compilation of all the MK characters, in my opinion. But I still enjoying it from time to time.

This game is definitely is the most complete. MK:D has the most quality content.
-2 well thought out, fun mini-games.
-2 Fatalities and 1 Hara-Kira per character, plus many stage Fatalities.
-A perfect roster, with awesome classics and decent newcomers.
-Freeroaming Konquest with so much to do. Collect, fight, explore realms for the first time...
-Alternate costumes, all very cool except the "cool"est character's.
-Bios for everyone AND alternate bios to wrap up loose ends.
-Unlockable soundtrack.

And so, SO much more. It only lacks in Krypt content and testing.

Actually deception was very well rounded in regards to gameplay with the improved DA fighting system and awesome mini games to add variety. How exactly was MK:D not finished and how did you get the idea that it was just going for design? If you're going to say things like that then you're going to have to elaborate.

The facts already have been explained several years ago, arguing with such ignorant people is worthless.

EDIT:@ Trini_Bwoi, do you really think the roster was perfect? I mean who likes Shujinko, Kobra, Kira, Hotaru, Dairou, and Darrius? The only good newcomer was Havik (I think), also, the roster had Kenshi and Ermac together...so yeah.

I've never played DA, but the worst part about Deception is that the gameplay is so SLOW! Especially with the breaker feature.

And the roster wasn't that good either. Kobra, Kira, Darrius, Dariou, ect. All the newcomers were terrible and worthless.
