Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero

This is a prequel Mortal Kombat game with all new game play.

You play as the legendary kombatant Sub-Zero, the Lin Kuei send him on a mission to collect elements for a sorcerer (and newly trusted ally) named Quan-Chi.

Gameplay: The game play is a cross between fighting and a plat former, very different to the previous Mortal Kombat games. There are puzzles to work out and you have to get through obstacles by timing your movements. Sub-Zero has all his special moves and combos intact and can even do his classic spine rip fatality.

Sound: The sound is basically average for this game, nothing special.

Graphics: Digitized sprites (Like MK1-3) crossed with 3D levels. I like the fact that they kept the digitized look and feel of MK.

Story: A great story! A good explanation of Sub-Zero's background.

Lastability: The game has 8 levels, except they will take lots of try's because of the high difficulty. After you finish it once there's nothing to do except do it all over again.

Controls: Not as dodgy as hyped up to be, the only bad thing is having a turn button which changes direction, but you get used to the controls quick.

I suggest trying it first, just remember to give it a chance before you hate it. The problem why a lot of people hate it is because it's damn hard, but I wouldn't want a game you could finish in 5 hours.

Only get if you're a hardcore fan of the series.
