EAN: 0031719209866 Platform: Sega Dreamcast Editorial Review: Editorial Review: Exclusive to the Dreamcast, Mortal Kombat Gold is the latest rendition of Midway's arcade classic fighter. Running at 60 frames per second with high-resolution graphics--a first for this series on any platform--the game boasts the look and feel of a quarter- munching upright arcade machine. The fighting system in this game is basically the same as it was in Mortal Kombat 3, with the addition of a few new characters and weapons and some subtle gameplay tweaks. There are several new gameplay modes that should excite Mortal Kombat and fighting-game fans. A new battle mode enables would-be combatants to select teams of multiple characters for team-based fighting. There is also a one- and two-player endurance mode, a traditional "versus" mode, two-on-two fighting, and a practice mode. The latter explains to players how to perform fatalities but, disappointingly, doesn't let you perform them. With only minor updates, Mortal Kombat Gold falls back on its roots. It's a good game if you are an avid Mortal Kombat fan, though others may wish to consider starting their Dreamcast fighting game collection with Soul Calibur, Power Stone, Virtua Fighter 3 Team Battle, and Street Fighter Alpha 3. --Todd Mowatt Pros:

 Rating:  - MK 4 all over again (LOGO) SMK reviewThis game is a waste of money! If you have MK 4 don't get this game! It's lowsy and is pretty much and updated version of MK4. Some thing's you might enjoy is that you can be Baraka and Mileena in this version. Good game to rent bad game to buy,enough said! If you would like to see any of my other reviews just look for my logo which is SMK that might be at the top or bottom of the review.OUT! (LOGO) SMK Rating:  - i love this game i played it for 2 hours when i got it i was hooked right away..great characters and i love the endings Rating: - The best version of Mortal Kombat 4This is the best version of Mortal Kombat 4 you are going to find in a home system. People who say that if you own the Playstation or N64 version and should not upgrade are wrong. The graphics are extremely superior to either system. It is an exact duplicate of the arcade but they have added 5 new characters (Baraka,Milleena,Cyrax,Katana and Kung Lao). They have also added 3 new stages. Bottom line is if you didn't enjoy Mortal Kombat 4 in the arcades then you will not like this game but if you did ...

However the presence of the new fighters are not enough to constitute a new game. The characters that were not in MK4 bring with them their signature moves to this Sega Dreamcast version, but their weapons have the same moves and fuctions of the already excisting ones. Also the throw moves and bone breaker moves are already owned by MK4 original characters. As for the new fatalities, nothing new either. The MK4 ...
