Ein cooler Typ posted:I can beat Mortal Kombat 1 on Genesis on very hard every time. On Mortal Kombat 2 I can barely beat it on very easy I remember MK1 being easy to cheese by using jump kicks over and over, at least against Goro and Shang Tsung. That seemed to go away in MK2 because I found that one to be hard too.

MK2 had perfect-play AI and I'm pretty sure it read your inputs. I'm not sure it can really be won without exploiting the AI somehow.

Ed Boon must have some dirt on someone or is just the most charismatic guy in the world, because the cross-licencing he's managed to pull off is crazy. if anyone could manage it, it'd be that dude... unless people got all pissy like when people weren't allowed to do certain Fatalities on Kratos as it'd make him "look bad".  !Klams posted:Im like a massive loving hellboy geek, I'm fuckin' all about the B.P.R.D, and I really love Injustice 2, and I'd say... save your money.

Remember that Batman Forever (at least on the SNES, maybe on other platforms) runs on the Mortal Kombat engine.

I'm not sure it can really be won without exploiting the AI somehow. Using Jax in MK2, I used to cheese the hell out of the Kintaro stage by crouching and low jabbing the poo poo outta him. He'd get locked in a semi-permanent block whenever you jabbed, so he'd get stuck like that for the rest of the match as long as you kept it up. It took a while to whittle his health down to nothing. Then I'd get my rear end kicked by Shao Khan.

The bosses in the SNES/Genesis MK games were so drat cheap they had to be unbalanced. I agree the developers must have had them read inputs and I have yet to find a proper cheesing strategy.

I never understood how that game had load times. The only other cartridge game I remember having load times was Street Fighter Alpha on snes but that's because it had a special decompression chip. What the hell was the reason Batman loving Forever had load times?

I remember that there's a way to screw with the MK2 AI. It involves jumping backwards, then the AI jumps after you after a delay, giving you enough time to follow up with a jump kick. Sub-Zero can also do a ground freeze - jump kick - slide combo. Works all the way up to Kintaro then it's just "get hosed". Randomly smacking buttons on my master system pad reassuring my folks that there wasn't any blood in the game and I didn't know that fatalities so it was okay for babby me to play. Then accidentally putting on the blood code that I didn't know about. Oops.

I can't remember if it was MK2 or 3 but in one of the games the AI could pretty much walk through your attacks and throw you, probably the most blatant cheating I'd seen in a video game at that point.

They only mentioned snes, Genesis, Game Boy, and Game Gear

I think like 95% of the opinions in this thread would change if people would replay the old games today. You'll be disgusted in your younger self when you realize how easy the bosses actually were. MK2 is slow and boring but to its credit it does have the best fatalities.

Uncle at Nintendo posted:Holy cow you had Mortal Kombat on the Master System? I don't even remember it being advertised as existing in the commercials. They only mentioned snes, Genesis, Game Boy, and Game Gear I didn't own copies myself, but the village I grew up in had a weirdly large number of Master System and Mega Drive owners and only like, two NES owners? So cartridge swapping was rampant, got to experience both MK1 and 2 on the Master System. Kano isn't in MK1, MK 2 was missing Raiden, Kung Lao, Baraka and... I think Johnny Cage? I've never had the fortune of seeing an MK3 Master System cartridge but wikipedia is telling me it was only released in Brazil so yeah.

As I recall it was both 2 and 3, you get anywhere near them and it's a constant "Huaa-oop! Huaa-oop! Huaa-oop!" I don't know about the others, but I know in MK3, there was a particular kind of fatality that involved doing a very long and complex combo of hits that I think caused the opponent to simply explode when finished. I think every character could do it, but they each had their own specific combo that had to be done to achieve it. I could NEVER pull it off, no matter how many times I looked at my precious cheat code books that showed the buttons

Dubplate Fire posted:Which game had friendships? Those started in MK2, as did Babalities. Re: bullshit AI - I've heard that called "MK walker" before because the AI just walks up to you blocking and dodging everything before it wrecks you. MK2 was awful for this and I would get so pissed when trying to uppercut and the CPU just goes "lol throw time". Such horseshit!
