With the new generation of games, it seems like third-party companies transitionned to making all their games Multi-Platform. Barely any of them bother making exclusives anymore, which is a shame really, since none of them really bother going to great lengths to use any of the consoles to their full potential.

But that still produces lots of quite good titles, that anyone can play since they’re on more than one console.

So what were the best multi-console releases of 2009?

I was given a few challenges for this, so let’s talk about the game first, and the challenges after!

So read on for the first game in my Arcade Center posts.

Well, I’ll start this review right away by saying that I’m not a Mortal Kombat fan. I’m not a huge fan of the fighting system, thus the reason it took me so long to check this out. That being said, such a random mix of characters was interesting enough for me to want to check it out.

The idea of Superman fighting Scorpion indeed made me quite curious, but does it work? Read on!
