fardan853752d ago

These games are nothing like MK. The only thing they share is the genre.

its only mention fighting games not the actual gameplay.

I think the only game, which is like MK is Killer instinct (old one) with finishing moves like fatality... ULTRAAA ULTRAAA!!! :)

CorndogBurglar3752d ago

So apparently any fighting is "like Mortal Kombat?"

I mean lets be honest, as far as fighting games go, none of these are even close to MK.

PurpHerbison3752d ago

Yeah, none of those games are like Mortal Kombat. There really isn't a current fighter that is. But there were a lot in the past.

CorndogBurglar3752d ago

The only fighting game that is even remotely similar to Mortal Kombat's gameplay is Injustice...and surprise, surprise! Its made by Ed Boon and Netherrealm Studios.

PurpHerbison3751d ago (Edited 3751d ago )

Both titles feel like you are playing them underwater. I was searching my mind for a similar fighter in terms of the violence, since that is what originally set MK apart from the rest.

mafiahajeri3752d ago (Edited 3752d ago )

LMFAO! Wtf is that in your avatar xD

OT: Yeah I mean just because its a fighting game doesnt mean its like mortal kombat. As if Mk is like a bench mark of fighting games or something.

ion6663752d ago

its pizza face from spaceballs. may the schwartz be with you.tekken 7 FTW!

CorndogBurglar3752d ago

Actually its Pizza the Hutt, from Space Balls.

LightofDarkness3752d ago (Edited 3752d ago )

The only recent game like MK was Injustice (same creators). All of the games on this list have very different mechanics. For instance, all of those games feature 8 directional movement and feature genuine 3D fighting engines, whereas MK is a completely 2D system (with 3D graphics, obviously).

Morgue3752d ago

There was also War Gods and didn't Midway release that?

maniacmayhem3752d ago

4 Games like Mortal Kombat??

Like Mortal Kombat?? That is an interesting and seriously baffling game to compare the list too.

mafiahajeri3752d ago

lol just look at their other articles they say Unreal tournament is "like" far cry, and L.A Noire and sleeping dogs are like Arkham city.

Heck! Some of those game arent even in the same genre!

My favorite is always going to be Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3. I know some people didn't like the addition of the run button. But, man that game is burned into my memory from childhood, lol.

Relientk77162d ago

That's the one I played the most as a kid. Fun times gaming on my Sega Genesis, the memories

Terry_B162d ago

Deception, MK2, MK9, MKX ..rest.

Kakashi Hatake162d ago

MK2 will always be the best in the series. Been playing a lot of MK1 lately though. Definitely enjoying it more than any other NRS era MK game.

Tankbusta40161d ago

1 and 2 were cultural phenomenon's.

specialguest161d ago

I will always have a special place in my memory for MK 1 and 2. You had to be there during that era at the arcades. Martial arts tournament fighting movies were still popular, and MK 1 was exciting. Real life motion captured characters done well (unlike Pit Fighter). A cast of characters we all liked like Bruce Lee(Lui Kang), Van Damme(Johnny Cage), the Lightning god(Raiden) from Big Trouble in Little China, and Ninjas, gotta have Ninjas. Goro was menacing as hell. The MK arcade had some of the best speakers similar to Killer Instinct as you could hear the loud crisp and bassy sound that was distinctly different than other arcades. MK 2 improved greatly on the controls and fighting mechanics
