I held out a few weeks after launch because I wasn't sure of its quality too, but WOW! This game is fantastic even as a single player affair. The gameplay and balance are excellent, the visuals are outstanding, the content is beyond plentiful, and FATALITIES!
This series needed a return to 2D, and this game proved it.

Nice! maybe the 3D Mortal Kombats were not as good or plain bad, the game asthetics were always good. going to the 2D roots of the franchise was such a great move. i'm very proud of this game!.
Good for them. Great game. So glad they returned to the roots of MK. this is one of the few games I can play over and over again and it never gets old.
I am very happy to be one of those 3 million people who bought it. It is by far the best game in the series, a solid fighter, and a great addition to anyone's library.
Bring on Mortal Kombat 2!
Hey wait.....lol

Imagine it took them what, I don't even know how many tries, to freaking remember that sometimes you don't change what is not fucking broken. They returned to their roots after losing so much money and almost losing their studio, and bam back on to success.
Really, FUCKING REALLY? You had to go through all that to know all we wanted was some fucking old classic MK and some bloody fatalities.

GOD DAMNIT I JUST BLOGGED ABOUT THIS
I hate it when my nice news blog gets obsoleted in 4 minutes!
Anyways, good for MK. It's a fun game and I'd argue its more balanced then the recent Capcom fighters.

Great game. Deserved great sales. Really, it's just bloated to bursting with fantastic content, great character, fun gameplay, tight balancing, continual support, free content, superb DLC, high production values, and much, much more. If you're a fighting game fan that hasn't given this a shot yet, you seriously should.
I wish more games would take the Mortal Kombat 9 route and go back to what made your franchise famous in the first place and improve on that instead of trying to shoehorn-in as many features,3d textures and moves as you can. the 3D Mortal Kombats didn't suck because they were 3D, they sucked because they totally changed everything we knew about playing MK, which was a horrible choice. MK9 is an MK-lovers wet dream.
Bravo to Netherrealm for giving us the surprise of the year.

Good for them. They deserve every penny for such a great fighting game.
@Sephiroth
And I would argue alongside you. MK9 is easily more balanced than MvC3 (considering that game is as balanced as an F22 engaging a submarine in an air-to-air battle) and, at the very least, slightly more balanced than SSF4: AE: Yun Edition.

Pretty Awesome to see a game sell well by keeping fans interested with promised DLC on a fixed schedule...unlike another awesome fighting game i know...
Even though I've slowly moved away from it, best fighting game I've played in years. NetherRealms studios deserves all the love they've been getting for this game, as they've continued to support it non-stop, unlike another publisher that just opt to sell you the updates as a whole 'nother game... Though I don't see how NRS studios can even top this game with MK10, if it ever comes out.
Every fighting game should have a story mode and challenge mode like Mortal Kombat (2011) does. No exceptions.
In fact, more games in general should transition seamlessly from cutscene to gameplay like MK does. I realize that it's hard for shooters and action games, but the way it's done in MK just raises the bar. Loading screens are getting pretty old, people, and hardware is getting better. Let's stop masking loads with tips and stupid animating icons and start optimizing.
