Deadly Alliance was a true example of what the PS2 can do to old fighting games. The way you can fight in two different styles of martial arts and then you can use a weapon. Just the best. My favorite things about the game were

Most chosen side-evil
Favorite character-Shang Tsung, Mavado
favorite arena-Shang Tsung's Palacce
The Krypt-interesting but to hard
extras-the music video and MK History were great additions.
OVERALL-8 out of 10

I hesitate to say it was better than Tekken 4, but it was a great game. The new Sub-Zero and Shang Tsung were so bad ass.
