While extremely popular back in teh day, it seems that most 2D fighting game fans now dispise the original few mortal kombats.
Sure they've been the butt of jokes on many a fighting game forum, and still are - but which of the mortal kombats shares a special place in your gaming history?
For me, it was mortal kombat 2. It was just so much better than 1, but still maintaned the classic flavor that was absent from MK3. Sure theyre was way too much blood, the fatalities were laughably stupid, and almost all the male characters had the same voice samples - but I thought the character designs and the moves were completely awesome at the time.
I mean ninjas are cool and all, but to have a move where you shoot a spear on a coil, and then yank the person over to you -thats just classic to me.
(Just played MK2 for the first time in years today)
