Best Mortal Kombat Trilogy Deals

Customer Ratings:

Before there was Tekken and Soul Blade and the rest of the current fighters there was Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat. Mortal Kombat was easily the best in terms of richness of the game. The characters moved fluidly, the voices were understandable, and there was blood. The series progressed nicely with great additions and secrets added every step of the way.

This title is a great, nostalgic look back at those times. Being able not only to play any of the characters from the first 3 games, but also as their different incarnations is huge. When the Genesis/Super Nintendo became obsolete I feared the loss of these games. But with their release on Playstation, especially in this title, I am happy. The game play is great and packed full of surprises. As far as 2D fighting games goes, this is the best and is better than many first generation 3D fighters. If you liked this in the arcade, you'll like it here. Granted, it has the usual translation problems with the buttons in the wrong places and more difficulty moving the stick, but you get those problems with any console game.

Mortal Kombat Trilogy was the game that put an end to The MK 3 storyline. Every character from MK 1-UMK3 return. At this point Earth & Outworld are close to being merged. The Elder Gods refuse to get involved so the only hope is Raiden he transforms into a mortal so he can survive in both relms. He leads the Earth Warriors into the final showdown. Also Johnny Cage has resurrected. Baraka is back just as Millena promised. Scorpion, Reptile & Sindel have all turned on Shao Kahn 2 sub bosses have came back Goro & Kintaro. A wild card is a new fighter called Chamelon. Nooob Saibot who was a hidden fighter in MK II is playable he was playable in The GEN & SNES version of Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 but he wasn't in the arcade or Saturn versions of Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3. Rain a ninja dressed in purple & his name is Rain take a quick guess on that 1? Rain was originally fighting for Shao Kahn Kitana helped him recall his past his father was an Edian Knight who died in the war against Shao Kahn. The whole idea was 1,000's of centuries ago The Mortal Kombat Tournament was created by Wisemen of the east who saw a forbidden land that's why it was created. Shao Kahn has tried & tried to use the tournament to weaken The Dimensional Gates. Which ultimately Raiden wants the fight to the death with Shao Kahn. Which Noob Saibot sees this as the opportunity if Shao Kahn is killed Noob Saibot can get a fallen Elder God out of The Netherrelm. John Tobias did the smart thing tied up everything & wrapped up the original storyline & left it open for a 4th installment. This is the most complete version of Mortal Kombat 3 it has everything & then some. All fatalities, babalities, animalities, friendships & brutalities are intact all the areas are in it. You can even play as MK 1 Raiden MK II Jax MK Kung Lao MK 1 Kan. They even have there original fatalities too. You get to play as all the bosses. They didn't get endings though except for Shao Kahn but not much of 1. MK Trilogy got ported to The Nintendo 64 PS1 & Sega Saturn. The 64 version is cr ap you can play as Shao Kahn & Motaro but no Goro or Kintaro. Chamelon is a female in the 64 version. Shao Kahn & Motaro got fatalities in the 64 version though. I just never liked the 64 version it really never was made for fighting games I'm sorry its not. Maybe if they had a good arcade stick maybe. Saturn & Playstation ports are identical Saturn version costs more. Also if you play this on The Playstation 2 when you beat it you get a blank screen. I know The Playstation version has a thing for 1 button combos & a cheat for 1 button fatalities. So I'll be back to review Mortal Kombat 4.

This game has it's good points and it's bad points. If you are a die-hard MK fan, chances are that you already own (or have owned) this game. The good points include the wide range of characters. This game has every single MK character to date, including "classic" version of some of the characters. Many of the characters have new ending, and some of them also have new moves. The combo system and MK-style fighting engine are both intact, and you can even play as the bosses, plus there is a secret character (Khameleon) to unlock. There is also the all-new "Brutality" finishes and the "Aggressor" mode. And, of course the unlockable "?" game options.

But there are the bad points, too. First of all, although you can play as the bosses, there is really no reason to do so since none of them have endings. And the gameplay difficult seems to be much too hard even on the easiest level. The game almost seems psychic in countering any move you try. Pure luck and a Gameshark are about the only way you will get through this game. And with the return of one of my favorite fighters, Johnny Cage, comes complete with two moves missing. If you think the good outweighs the bad, then get this game. But if you like MK the old way, which is to say one that actually fights fair, then I do not recommend this one.

Honest reviews on Mortal Kombat Trilogy

out of all the 2d mk games this one is the best. It was xmas 2009 and my uncle asked what i wanted for xmas. And i asked for this. Because nowadays u cant get it anymore. The graphics are slightly not as good as arcade ports. It has to load, and shang tsungs morphs take loading time to. Also when u win a round the 1 second tune part is disabled leaving just silence. The n64 version doesnt need loading but it lacks all the stages and kharacters that this version has to offer. So this is the best mk game u can get. A to make it feel more classic. Buy some arcade controllers.

I'm almost certain most people looking at this product have played it at least once in their life, like me. I had almost forgotten about the mortal kombat franchise until my girlfriend bought me MK: Armageddon for PS2. IT SUCKS! I started remembering my past experiences with the mortal kombat series and I remembered trilogy as my favorite one, so I decided to buy it. THERE IS NO COMPARISON! The newer, 3D versions of mortal kombat are total "krap" compared to the 2D releases. MK: Trilogy is the most fun you could have playing a video game. My favorite part of the game is the sound the mk ninjas (scorpion, reptile, sub zero, noob, smoke, etc) make when you hit them. That classic "OOOOHH!" sound really adds to the mood. I't might sound strange, but once you experience it for yourself you'll understand.
