Consider this one a cleansing bloodbath
Words: Dan Amrich, GamesRadar US
Both the PS2 and Xbox versions feature well-mixed surround sound and surprisingly sharp graphics. Both platforms support widescreen displays, but Xbox owners can run the game in 720p. In return for a lowly 480p display, PS2 owners can buy a special Premium Edition that includes behind-the-scenes goodies and Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 for an extra $10. Doesn't matter - just get Mortal Kombat: Armageddon, because it's worth owning. It may or may not be the blood-soaked ending to the franchise, but it's easily one of the most enjoyable games in the series and one of the most unapologetically fun games of the season.
