Explosively Different by Grant Gougler on June 8, 2009
Rating: 8/10
My first brush with this game was, sadly, the Sega Genesis port. A friend brought it over when I was a kid and I hated it. Then I discovered the blood code, which showed me the potential of MK. Then I absolutely had to see it at the arcade. I was blown away -- no need for a blood code there. The game, at the time, seemed powerful... I don't know how to explain it, really. It just seemed like the controls were supercharged or something. The Sega Genesis port and the arcade were as different as a Pinto and a Corvette. It had me memorizing special moves instead of multiplication tables, which I probably should have been learning instead back then. Great, great game.
a true classic by any standard by buda3d2003 on January 8, 2009

the original and second best in the series as this game was finely tuned in the MK2 sequel.

You know you have gone big when a movie is made about your game, however I always thought this game was a big rip off of John Carpenters - "Big Trouble In Little China" film as many of the character designs (mainly raiden and kitana's metal fans) look like they were ripped straight out of this movie.

I cannot give this game any less then 10/10 by any standard as it had a huge influence on video game history (not to mention censorship laws too ;)

An instant classic from the moment it was released, Mortal Kombat changed the

rules and opened the door for game developers to release games geared more towards the older generation of gamers who were perhaps interested in games with more mature subject matter.
