    A Great Game

    This is a great game. A change from the other MK games. It is adventure as well as head-to-head fighting. I'd suggest buying it.

    I can't say it's a great game but I like the idea they had in mind back then

    It's sad we didn't get any other mythologies of the other characters, it would have been interesting to see everyone's story.

    Sub zero is a favorite character of mine and it's cool they got John Turk to play the part as he is sub zero from MKIII. And the cut scenes are equally good as mortal kombat quest series.

    As a gameplay it wasn't good but as a story it is better, I prefer to watch it on long play than actual playing it.

    A Pathetic Game for a great license.

    This is what happens when you sacrifice gameplay for license. The graphics were dated and choppy, the control scheme was contrived and most of all it didn't seem all done. It just was wrapped up and shipped to stores so that one unlucky fool could buy it. Stick to Mortal Kombat 4 or the new Special Forces game coming up!

    The less said about this game the better.

    Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero will go down as one of the worst ideas for the Mortal Kombat franchise. The gameplay is too difficult and the game itself was far too pointless. I didn't care for this game in the slightest.

    You can't take a fighting game and take a different direction to an action/adventure game. Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero tried to do this and failed miserably. Thankfully this game has been treated as if it never existed with further games that have been successful.

    Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero has managed to earn itself an infamous reputation as one of the worst games ever released. It was widely panned on release.

    The less said about Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero the better.

    1/10.

    Spectacular new take on the MK world.

    I really tried to like this game because I'm a hard core, die hard fan of anything related to MORTAL KOMBAT.

    The concept is great and so is the game play because the game has unique action sequences that will make you remember about the controls of MK and MK II. I truly enjoyed the fighting techniques because MK game-play have always been attractive for avid action and fighting games. The combo system is similar to MK III so you can't go wrong with the game-play.

    I always thought I was playing a Chinese action movie. The scenarios are just great; dark, stylish, great atmosphere but best of all, a feeling of uncertainty when the evil characters appear.

    The graphics are truly great! The digital graphics combined with 2D and 3D in some cases is really attractive and will make you enjoy the hard and difficult scenarios and enemies.

    The sound is also pretty cool with martial arts music and some intense classical MK sounds.

    My advice is, get this game but only if you are a fan of the MK games. Otherwise, play it with low expectations because if you are not into the world of MK, you will likely have a hard time trying to like it.

      First appearance of Quan Chi and Shinnok in a video game.
    • Quotes

      Quan Chi: [after Sub-Zero defeats the Elements blocking the entry into the Temple of Elements, Quan Chi takes the amulet] The amulet! I have Shinnok's amulet!

      Sub-Zero: Who's amulet?

      Quan Chi: He is my deity, ruler of the Netherrealm; And soon, destroyer of your Earthrealm.

      Sub-Zero: What are you talking about?

      Quan Chi: This amulet... it is the key to Shinnok's power as an Elder God. When returned to him, he will regain his powers and be free from the confines OF the Netherrealm.

      Sub-Zero: I thought Shao Kahn was...

      Quan Chi: Shao Kahn is nothing bu t a peasant ruler of a long dead realm! SHINNOK, is the destroyer of ALL realms, INCLUDING Kahn's Outworld!

      Sub-Zero: Destroyer of all realms? You are insane! That amulet isn't worth the bronze it's molded from!

      Quan Chi: Believe what you will, Sub-Zero. Goodbye, ninja.

      [Quan Chi warps away to the Netherrealm]
