On my xbox 360, the Mortal Kombat Deception Game menu only displays the option to play the origianl arcade game, not Deception...

Upper right corner of the box has the words NTSC U/C

Is that what you are looking for?

Hello there,
Manuals for games are hard to find online; however, gamefaq.com is a GREAT resource for finding helpful information about games. Here is a link to MK: Deception for the PS2 http://www.gamefaqs.com/ps2/919922-mortal-kombat-deception/faqs It will have all the information you require.
I hope this has helped! Thumbs up are much appreciated.

Yup. Faulty disc. Try cleaning it with rubbing alcohol and a soft towel: do NOT rub it hard. If that doesn't work, you may have a corrupted disc. See about returning or exchanging it if possible.

yes if you have the stand up arcade
go in and replace the wire that leads from the motherboard to the joystick
only the one that is used for the "down"slot needs it
and if you would like there are a couple of websites that sell the upgrade for the joy stick instead of only having six directional angles you can go up to 14 i believe

Have you tried the games on a different 360? If they freeze on a different 360, you may want to take the copies back for your money back.

are there scrathes on disk?

here are the cheats for ps3 Mortal Kombat
