gunner154 Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 I have had a recent regained interest in this game. Um, yes, I am talking mainly about the classics, ie. MK, MK2 and MK3. The rest of them don't count... except Shaolin Monks, which was obviously designed for those who liked the classic games :PSo for those who have played them, how did you find the game? I still play the first 3 games today.. ;) Rocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyborg Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 My brother got hold of number one and two for a loooooong time ago. Ten years? We played our asses off, and it was bloody hilarious. I love the game.The third one wasn't as fun, I think. The fourth ( the 3d one? ) was pretty OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFlibble Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Definitely one of the classics. I haven't played anything after UMK3 though, but the first trilogy was very good ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner154 Posted September 23, 2006 Author Share Posted September 23, 2006 I didn't really like 4 (the first 3d version) because it lost its novelty with 3d.Yeah, the first 2 were the best, though the second one was pretty much ruined by an AI that cheats too much...

Ninja_Sher Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 kintaro was/is almost unbeatable, I liked mk3/umk3 for the combos and new -alities :D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner154 Posted November 12, 2006 Author Share Posted November 12, 2006 The combos were an interesting concept, but they made playing styles too fixed. And they are easily abused by the computer as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFlibble Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 True enough. But it was still fun ;D We would gather at my classmate's who had MK3 on his PC and play against one another or against the AI ::) He also had the GameBoy version of MK2, and lots of other games as well :D Yeah, those were the days...

eid Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 ;D heh mk2+3 on snes was the only 2 other games out there other than weaponlord that let me 'customise' my own fataility (by use of johhnycage/tsung-mk2) and of course cyrax/sektor/kabal/tsung and a few other characters..in mk2-snes cage could throw 2 high fireballs in succesion and cancel each other out and with some strange projectile hover glitch....very exploitable with the shangster, try see how many fatalities u can 'recreate' using the cage/shang morphsmk3-snes heh if you would like to see possibly one of the worst glitches to ever be let passed qc, try this out!but please note: you may damage your tv by doing this!! so try it on an emulator if your unsure,coz its probly not very healthy for ituse shang tsung,subway stage---finish him--- take half a step away and perform F,B,B,LK(3 rising fireballs) just before the last fireball hits, perform the stage fatality U,U,B+LPthere are 2 outcomes,1) you will hit the enemy with the special just as the stage fatality hits, the opponent will land there dazed indefinately...2) the special will hit the fighter just after the stage fatality hits and then the entire image gets scewed folded teared rolled then it fixes itself after a few secs..but the background keeps rolling .. this can also be done with cyrax/sektor with the bomb homing missile moves if your timings good..by the way the mk2 cage trick is done by having cage at the furthest side of the screen(this means having p2 move forwars so cage can get closer to the edge of the screen) and throw 2 high fireballs as fast as you can...the second should cancel the first and no more fireballs will be seen, but u can hear them.. using shangtsung morph into some1else and throw a projectile, u may notice it hovers there.. now all u gotta do is think of how many way a hovering 'insert fireball type here' would do if the opponent was hit by it during a fatality or some other scripted sequence :Dhmm i have a lot more tho i think that should keep a few of you entertained if you can understand it :/mk1-amiga/pc mk2-snes/arc mktrilogy-psx ftw! btw mk2-genesis/saturn/pc ,mk1-snes/gameboy mktrilogy-n64 worst 'classic' ports i've played.. want any more glitches? }:> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
