A ton of things...

Scorpion, Kitana, Jade & Reptile added to the roster. Smoke is a normally selectable character. Ermac, Mileena and Classic Sub-Zero are unlockable via 3 UKKs. Human Smoke is playable after entering a button code while playing as Smoke.

5 new stages. Waterfront, Jade's Desert, Kahn's Kave, Scorpion's Lair and the hidden blue portal. The Bank stage from MK3 is gone.

New moves for characters, most notably Stryker's gun. Many tweaks to old characters. Sub-Zero's iceclone, Kabal's ground saw and Jax's missles weakened among other changes. Some combos do less damage.

You can now start chains with a jump punch/kick.

New difficulty tower and the return of Endurance Matches.

New, much harder(cheaper) AI.

Beating the game allows you to pick your reward from "Shao Kahn's Treasures". You can choose from up to 12 options, stuff like your regular story ending to a movie showing the various fatalities. The higher the difficulty you play the more of the 12 boxes you have access to.

2 on 2 and 8 person tournament modes added.

All new presentation, new intro, new title screen, new menus, ect.
 
just nabbed mine for xbox....IM NEVER SELLING THIS GAME




so far

the only things that keep MK2 from being 100% arcade perfect is

-flickery shadows
-a little off on the intro (the screen is like .5 seconds ahead of the music)
-the music can play during fatality sometimes /sub zero floor ice can drop the music a second


other than that its aracde mk2 at home FINALLY


coupled with mk3 that looks to be 99% accurate also (shadow problems present etc)
and all other games for 20 bucks

its a steal! :D

Finally got this game after searching for three days. (It's apparently very popular.) The fighting games are unplayable but I'm really digging Xybots and Xenophobe
