MK: Deadly Alliance had a pretty solid fighting engine (though nowhere near as good as Virtua Fighter's), but there was just so much missing from it that would've made it feel like a true Mortal Kombat game. No pit levels, for example. No shape-shifting Shang Tsung (he's in the game, but doesn't change into other people anymore) They didn't even fraking have Liu Kang in it! Fun game, but it just didn't feel like MK. Considering it came out right around the same time as Virtua Fighter 4 and Tekken 4, it looked even more lackluster.
Hopefully MK 6 will bring back the goods. That Baraka looks pretty wicked, even if he does bear a disturbing resemblance to the Bat Boy from the tabloid papers.
