Midway Games Inc., a leading interactive entertainment industry publisher and developer, has shipped Mortal Kombat: Kollection to retail stores. MKK is a special collector's edition box set combining three recent Mortal Kombat titles from Midway's award winning video game fighting franchise into one explosive package.
The Mortal Kombat series is one of the cornerstones of fighting games and its legacy has endured for over two decades. From its very inception Mortal Kombat has been known for its explicit violence and easy to master controls. The game was originally developed for arcade machines and released in 1992, after three years of development. It has since been made available for practically every gaming system.
I remember I bought a Genesis because I didn't want the no blood version. Mortal Kombat Armageddon is my favorite because it gives me so many Kombatants to choose from.
You mean Super Nintendo. Genesis had blood and gore with the ABACAB code. Takes me back. :3
He said he bought a Genesis because he DIDN'T want the NO BLOOD version. Meaning, he wasnted blood, so he got the Genesis.
I did the same thing.
The SNES version was the watered down version and I didn't want that. I never heard of that code till now. Did it change the Fatalities back to the original versions as well? Some of the SNES ones were different than the arcade. I used the SNES for pretty much every other game and was my primary console though I did go into pc gaming afterwards.
Edit: spellcheck
With Genesis you had to put that ABACABB code in for there to be blood and gore.
I remember having the blood and gore but I don't remember the code or using the code at all. Too old perhaps. Did it change the fatalities as well?
It slightly changed the fatalities.
Like with Kano's heart rip fatality, it looked like he just punched the enemy in the chest, he didn't actually pull out their heart.
Or Sub-Zero didn't actually rip their head off, he just upper-cutted them real high in the air.
So yeah, it changed them.
my favorite MK is the first one i spent so nice moments playing it stopping by a cafe on my way home from karate class LONG time ago!LOL
My first ever game purchase was Mortal Kombat 1 on Sega Megadrive. Oh the memories! Well it was a 3 in 1 cartridge that included MK1, Aliens and Sunset Riders.
Oh how excited I would get if I saw a fatality or managed to pull one off.
I used to live at the arcade for MK II. Anyone remember the Nudeality rumors? Lol
GamingShogun writes, "Mortal Kombat Komplete Kollection just drips with style and gore. The art direction for this game really hit home and made the game feel like a combination of the Mortal Kombats of the past, while bringing about a new look for a new generation. Many of the characters costumes have been simplified and hearken back to original designs, like Sub-Zero’s ninja style costume. Other characters, such as Smoke, have a much newer look to their costumes."
Shao Khan was defeated, Earth Realm was saved, and Bill Clinton was getting “special service” in the Oval Office. It was 1993, and the colorful cast of Mortal Kombat II was unemployed. What happened? Did they go on food stamps? Beg for loose change? Or, god forbid, get a real job?
Little-known fact: Shao Khan provided the voice of John Smith in Pocahontas.
Umm, i would have seen this as being pefect for PSN and Live. Guess someone is smarter than me.
Ahhh you are right. I didn't know they were the newest ones. For some reason I was thinking of the older ones. To big.
