over a decade later...

very shocked that this site is still around, and i'm even more shocked at how embarrassing all my old posts are (also REALLY not a fan of this old username lol). i'm pretty sure this site is now one of the last "archives" of my childhood online, since so many other sites i used to use back in the day are totally gone.

doubt anyone will read this, but just figured i'd post something here anyway given the whole site birthday thing. i'm way out of the loop on these kinds of sites now, but i do hope marapets still sticks around for a good while longer.

Game Reviews??

I was wondering if I should use the rest of my blogging space for game reviews or something like that. Oh well, here's one anyway.

Mortal Kombat Armageddon Wii

The Mortal Kombat series is known for being brutal and bloody, but is this entry good enough? The answer could be yes, but some problems could keep this game down in the dump, literally.
The story is that every MK Character ever fight against each-other to see who is the best fighter. So it has a basic story, which means this game is already heading into greatness, as in you don't have to follow a complex plot.
The game has 3 basic modes. Fight, Konquest, and Krypt. Yes, the "Spelling Things With a K" is back for another game. Anyway, you can also create your own fighter, and it's not a surprise to see all of the customization features you can have, seeing as the normal characters are highly-decorated.
Fighting is great in this game, and the physics are fluid along with the animations. The addition of Kreate-a-Fatality is great, as it gives you freedom to create your own fatality by stringing together basic attacks by swinging your Wii Remote or Nunchuck to perform different moves. Once a move is performed, the time for another move decreases faster, and if it runs out before you can perform a finisher, your fatality will be failed and therefore will not count as a fatality.
All of these features add up to the playability of this Wii title, but it seems that playing with a classic controller or on a different system is much more enjoyable, and the Wii motion detector is messing up at most times.
This game gets a 9 out of 10, as it is still a solid experience, despite the drawbacks.
