mortal kombat trilogy

Mortal Kombat Trilogy was a popular game back in the early days of the Playstation's existence. Even before the Playstation Mortal Kombat was known as a groundbreaking game for its graphic violence on the Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis. It was the first of its kind, or one of the first. Looking back at the old 2D fighter games, despite the heavy amount of blood and all the creative fatalities, Mortal Kombat STINKS, plain and simple. The game tries to look dangerous and back in the day it really WAS a threat. Parents were terrified that their children might experience all the blood and gore.

We're talking nearly 14 years since the original Mortal Kombats release, and now we can look at the Mortal Kombat series for what it really is: a cheesy-looking and crappy series of uninteresting tournament fighting. That's what the entire series is (until the game turned 3D, then I don't know WHAT to think). Just the way the two fighters attack each other is SO boring. Even the best fighters like Sub-Zero and Noob Saibot are a total bore.

Midway thought they really had something going when they created Mortal Kombat Trilogy. It featured nearly EVERYBODY from the previous Mortal Kombat games. How can it be bad? Well, besides the reasons I mention above, the Playstation version is murdered with INCREDIBLE amounts of loading times. People can say the Playstation was a bad system when it came to loading all they want, but the fact remains Mortal Kombat Trilogy is quite possibly the most annoying game when it comes to waiting to play the freaking thing. Sometimes you have to wait almost a minute before the game *finally* loads the fight screen. And the fighting is so bad (because the entire Mortal Kombat series up until this point is severely dated and horrible) that the loading times are actually the part I look forward to the most.

I'll give the game one extra point for featuring all the fighters in one nifty little package. Besides that. BAD game.

THIS IS THE BEST OF THE BEST IN MK!

There is no need to buy each game separately except after Mortal Kombat 3. This collection is slammed pack with all three and all the characters with old and new combos with quick death defying killer moves. A must have for you Mortal Kombat fanantics! Great game!

NEXT TO NOTHING!

this game is so great everyone would say because the amount of characters and backgrounds. Well in my opinion this game stinks i will tell you why. firstly combos are a nightmare to pull off, i beat opponents by only kicking and uppercutting which is sad. Secondly the fatalities are also hard to pull off. I know in options if you unlock the ? box you could perform 1 button fatalites, brutalites, animalites and friendship, but there is no 1 button stage fatality, so you will have to do the stage fatalities on your own, which is also a nightmare to pull off like the combos. Thirdly the game freezes evertime i am fighting a boss. the other day while i was fighting motaro the game just froze in the middle of the fight all my hard work to reach him at the top has gone down the drain. and yesterday when i was fighting goro the game froze again. maybe the playstation cannot handle the sprites when fighting the bosses. this game is so absymal that it achieves next to nothing in evrything it attemps to achieve. this game will only impress real MK fans.

I think that mortal kombat trilogy is the best fighting game. I like the way every character and background from the first three were included in the game. Although when playing as Shang Tsung, morphs take a couple minutes to load and this can get very irritating. Overall, great game.

MKT or Is It?

Trilogy has brought to the world named fatility but not only that but the meaning of BASIC Fighting games with experance 2-d action near 5. Ok Midway was Serious about creating about other new products until we wait for ps2 And till MortalKombat-Deadly alliance. Who knows this game is better then other stupid games. Still theres still a little problem BUT YOU CAN FIX THOSE MINAR ADJUSTMANTS

All good things come to those who wait

MKT is a pretty good game. I was a bit dissapointed in the creativity of the attacks, finding every character to move the same, but I was spoiled by playing Tekken 3 before this one. The loading time was the only big drawback, but it gave me a chance to read the character bios between battles.

THE BEST MORTAL KOMBAT GAME EVER!!!!!!!!!!

ALL THE FAVORITES FROM MORTAL KOMBAT 1-ULTIMATE MORTAL KOMBAT 3 ARE ALL HERE. THE GRAPHICS ARE FANTASTIC, THERE'S A LOTTA COOL CODES THAT'RE VERY USEFUL AND THAT MAKES THE GAME A LITTLE EASIER, AND THE FIGHTS ARE MORE FUN THAN THEY EVER WERE TO PLAY. AND, ALL OF THE BOSSES ARE, FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER, PLAYABLE CHARACTERS!! SO IF YOU WANTED TO PLAY AS SHAO KAHN, MOTARO, KINTARO, OR GORO, YOU FINALLY GET YOUR WISH WITH THIS INCREDIBLE GAME!!!! AND THERE'S SECRET CODES YOU CAN ENTER THAT'LL ENABLE YOU TO PERFORM FATALITIES WITH JUST 1 BUTTON, THERE'S A CODE TO PLAY AS CHAMELEON, THERE'S A CODE THAT ENABLES OLD MK 2 AND MK 1 CHARACTERS LIKE THE MK 1 RAIDEN, THE OLD MK 1 KATO, AND THE OLD MK 2 KUNG LAO. THIS IS THE ULTIMATE MORTAL KOMBAT GAME AND THIS IS THE GREATEST MK GAME EVER MADE!!!!! AFTER THIS AND MORTAL KOMBAT 4, THE MK GAMES WOULD NEVER BE GOOD AGAIN.

This game was almost perfect.

I did not own this game for Playstation, I owned it for PC. But they are exactly the same.

After an upgrade past windows 95, this game never would work on my PC again. But I have thought about getting the Playstaion for this game (or a rom, shhhh)

This game combined mortal kombat's 1, 2, 3 and another version, I forget the name into the one game. And that was a great move. Finally all the charactors where playable in the one game, even hidden charactors where findable like a cool charactor named Chameleon who was a ninja, but kept changing, he'd morph into scorpion, sub zero, reptile, rain ect...

All the charactors where there. But not all the backgrounds where, a few where missing. What made this game the best was turning on one button fatality isntead of memorising thousand step codes that wouldnt always work. You's just go to the options menu and hold Up, and the block buttons or something and it would let you access a secret option menu where you could select the cool cheats. One button fatalitys was the best, you could press one button when it said finish to do the finisher 1, 2, freind shipm animality ect.. this is still my favorite MK game. I have rated it here because the N64 version sucked and was not a trilogy, it was MK3 with a few extra charactors.

this game rocks
