Opening Snide Remarks: This was the first officially licensed Nintedo game
that was full of blood and gore.  Way to go, Nintendo!

****************************************************************************

Gameplay Description: Mortal Kombat 2 took the MK series to a new level.  
This is a level that it hasn't seen since.  MK2 is quite simply a good game.
It took everything that was good about MK and added more good things.  This
game was a step above even Street Fighter 2.  It had lots of characters and
lots of moves and some of the goriest fatalities.  This game is also a blast
to play with 2 players.  Overall, this is one of the best SNES fighters ever.
Liked: Great fighter action.
Hated: Nothing.

****************************************************************************

Graphics Description: The graphics were amazing at the time of it's release.
The graphics still hold up pretty well today.  The characters are very 
detailed and look great.  The moves look very nice, as well.
Liked: Good 2-D graphics.
Hated: Nothing.
****************************************************************************

Sound/Music Description: The music is still pretty good.  The sound fx are 
good, as well.  The voices don't sound quite as clear as I had remembered 
them, but they're pretty good, too,
Liked: Good music.
Hated: Nothing.

****************************************************************************

Play Control/Game Design: MK2 controls perfectly.  The controls are easy and
are very responsive.  The only questionable thing about the controls is that
fatalities are too tough to pull off.  The game design is great.
Liked: Good controls.
Hated: Nothing.

****************************************************************************

Improve: Nothing.

RIYL: Other Mortal Kombat games, Virtua Fighter series. 

****************************************************************************

Final Words: Mortal Kombat 2 is a really cool game.  It's the best MK ever.
Umm...what else can I tell you about it?  Did you know that the guy who plays
Kung Lao, Ho Sung Pak, was in Jackie Chan's Drunken Master 2?  He was also 
one of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in the TMNT films.
