i don’t mind MK 1 but i feel like the franchise isn’t the same without the weird east asian horror movie aesthetic, these games are supposed to be kind of unsettling but they also had dark humor to balance things out, mkx was the last to do this right i feel like, does that make sense, now it just feels like a crossover mcu movie
MK 1 is a nice love letter to the 3D era and the story is a good retelling of Deadly Alliance, Deception and Armageddon like how MK 9 was a retelling of 1-3. It was cool seeing characters who haven’t been playable for a while come back after so long. Funny, the 3D era games got me back into MK and got me through college.
There was a lot of copy-pasting going on though, like Frost having the same generic throw as Onaga/Blaze. I love this game to bits but Midway was already in a rough spot financially and the MK team was forced to push out a new MK game every year.
Given the time crunch and this supposed to be the last MK I’d say they did pretty good, characters aside all the extra content the game has to offer is pretty nice too.
There is a lot of nostalgia for me, it’s the game that got me into MK in the first place. The cool thing about the old PS2 games is that they left a lot to the imagination.
I love how some characters share animations but have different effects that signify their different means of doing the same thing. Also, Kira with that get up animation? She should have been in MK9 for full hot bodied 3D glory.
I wish every character had their our unique get up animations from both sides facing up, facing down and facing from the sides and this needs to return in new and future games
@@DavidLopez-jk1wj Hold on, bruh. Li Mei was always kinda meh for me. Same for Nitara. But Tanya in MK1 is fine af. Her face isn't all that in the game but figure is amazing.
Finally, I video about something forgotten but satisfying to watch from the awesome and forgotten early 3d era of Mortal Kombat. Thank you so much. I have always loved to play with or against a character that has a unique get-up when I playing with my friends. Such memories ❤
Really liked Kira's. The way she poses is pure femme fatale and you can tell she's irritated with the way she sways before entering her battle stance again
And I loved if every character had their own bios in Armageddon because the majority of the bios were cut from the game and only a few characters have bios in Armageddon and the bios are not even in the game they are on Wikipedia
Most of all of the unique character getups seem to come from anyone who was playable in deception and some new characters who made it to Armageddon, borrowing some of the characters getups
In Deception he just has copy pasted "punch the ground" anim like a lot of other characters so technically that is the actual new getup in MKA that they gave to him and Reiko.
so basically the work Midway did in Armageddon is the same as the guys who are doing Ultimate Deception. they are just taking Deception and adding the Deadly Alliance characters to it. i mean, would be nice if they added this sort of stuff to the DA chars too, but nope, they're just straight ports with one less fighting style and no finishers.
@@MonsterEnjoyer88 Could it be because I'm not English? There is no rule that all people know English. I wrote a comment because I didn't see Kitana in this video, I didn't do anything wrong
MK1 screwed up the character designs of the deception characters so badly that I wish it had never been made. Ashrah, Li Mei, and Tanya deserved so much better.
Nice detail: when Baraka gets up, his fighting style changes to Blades
His style is the equivalent to “Punch me and I’m pulling the blick”
Man the sound effects for the 3D era were so good
Scorpion's spear, Sub-Zero's ice, Kenshi's telekenisis, Raiden's electricity, it all sounds so cool
I like how Mileena gets up all pissed off and growling, fits her really well.
2:14 Sheeva: buy me a car
Ok if you wish
I laughed so hard on this 😂😂😂
Yooooo 😂😂😂😂😂
o en español: "Veni acá"
Now she know her big ass can’t fit in no car, not even a frickin suv
I miss the 3D era even though I still play them like everyday
i don’t mind MK 1 but i feel like the franchise isn’t the same without the weird east asian horror movie aesthetic, these games are supposed to be kind of unsettling but they also had dark humor to balance things out, mkx was the last to do this right i feel like, does that make sense, now it just feels like a crossover mcu movie
I don't feel nostalgia for these games bc I never stopped playing them

Yup mk11 was when they truly shifted the theme for the worse imo@@PlacidRat42098
I hope they'll be remastered 😔
Reiko and Liu Kang have the best ones. Very acrobatic 😎👍🏾
The starfish kip up
I saw Liu Kang do it when I was little and knew I had to learn
Crazy how much love this game was made with
It could've used a little more, but given the circumstances it's still pretty decent

Scorpion's getup animation is GOATed.
Li mei and Ashrah's one are so satisying
1:35 my favorite
My main
I love how some characters share animations but have different effects that signify their different means of doing the same thing.
Also, Kira with that get up animation? She should have been in MK9 for full hot bodied 3D glory.
Fun Fact: Sektor's is taken from Smoke in Deception.
And Rain uses Noob's animation from Deception.
A lot of new MKA ones are just recreated Deception's ones with a twist like different visual effects.
The only bad side is that the charcters felt very similar
kira and sareena lmaooooo
0:56 Liu Kang and Reiko doing the spinaroonie
Booker T: 😮😮😮😮😮😮 *I didn't just see that. TELL ME...I did NOT Just See that!*
Kira and Sarenna were just checking each other out.
Also what was up with Tanya and Sheeva?
I wish every character had their our unique get up animations from both sides facing up, facing down and facing from the sides and this needs to return in new and future games
I've always had a crush on Kira and till this day, I still do. I hope they bring her into this new timeline.
Personally, I don't. They're going to uglify her like they did Li Mei, Tanya and Nitara.
Oh, and ESPECIALLY Ashrah and Sareena.
@@DavidLopez-jk1wj Hold on, bruh. Li Mei was always kinda meh for me. Same for Nitara. But Tanya in MK1 is fine af. Her face isn't all that in the game but figure is amazing.
@@DavidLopez-jk1wj Ashrah was always that girl back then and even now.
MK1 Tanya's built like and sounds like a man, bruh.
Ashrah damn looks like she came from Portland, Oregon.
They ain' t all that anymore.
Finally, I video about something forgotten but satisfying to watch from the awesome and forgotten early 3d era of Mortal Kombat. Thank you so much.
I have always loved to play with or against a character that has a unique get-up when I playing with my friends. Such memories ❤
This is a compilation of something I would've never payed attention before, nor ever thought there would be a compilation of, but enjoyed nonetheless
Shao Khan is a Green Lantern.
Also if another chararter also have the animation I don't know if isn't unique animore.
i'm not sure if this is something i wanted to watch but i'm sure its something i needed
Really liked Kira's. The way she poses is pure femme fatale and you can tell she's irritated with the way she sways before entering her battle stance again
The subzero one sometimes was a disadvantage because the step forward he takes
Every once in a while I make the scorpion animation to get out of bed lol
1:31
The best
Idk why but Shao's is one of the coolest to me. It's so simple yet it's effective.
I agree, definitely one of my favourite getups.
This is the type of content that i watch instead of sleeping
And I loved if every character had their own bios in Armageddon because the majority of the bios were cut from the game and only a few characters have bios in Armageddon and the bios are not even in the game they are on Wikipedia
I just enjoy how it shows methods used to creatively cut corners to save on cost.
Most of all of the unique character getups seem to come from anyone who was playable in deception and some new characters who made it to Armageddon, borrowing some of the characters getups
Man. I love the sound design of these games
2:41 😍
They had no business making Kira that fine but they did it.
We need more of these costumes for MK1. SO MUCH ARE MISSING FOR OUR FAVORITE CHARACTERS. NRS, LISTEN TO YOUR FANS!
scorpion and subs animations are so goated
3:19 Kintaros hands are huge XD, story wise Kintaro always looked more intimidating than Goro
They should have added this since MK4 onwards and Deadly Alliance too
Stryker has the standard get up animation but is in X2 speed haha
1:35 the best of the best!
2:35 who is this?
Kira. She's female Kano.
@@devonted1018 accurate
Kira from MK Deception.
On the left is Kira, on the right is Sareena.
I swear I don't remember Liu Kang having that get up animation
In Deception he just has copy pasted "punch the ground" anim like a lot of other characters so technically that is the actual new getup in MKA that they gave to him and Reiko.
Shao Kahn gets up like "Black Panther"
3:33
I didn't know Sektor can fly!
so basically the work Midway did in Armageddon is the same as the guys who are doing Ultimate Deception. they are just taking Deception and adding the Deadly Alliance characters to it. i mean, would be nice if they added this sort of stuff to the DA chars too, but nope, they're just straight ports with one less fighting style and no finishers.
Shao Kahn and ermac hace the best
Li Mei's is really clean and cool
I never understood why Sektor is the only one with that animation, especially knowing Smoke was the one who originally had it in Deception.
Li mei has the best get up animation imo, and scorpion, subzero and sektor come right after
cool scorpion❤
Never knew Liu Kang and Reiko were Kindred Spirits lol
Ahh, if only you could choose your getup animation in Kreate-A-Fighter
You missed Kai, Kobra, Jarek, and Dairou, dude
Correct, somehow ommitted them while compiling recordings, hope Kobra and Dairou stans will forgive me🙏
@@Deyrax_the dozen of them out there, anyway….
@@ShabungalooTheStinkydairou is cool 😤
@@Deyrax_yeah sorry gonna get a dislike for that
@@Deyrax_ as a Kobra Stan i forgive you ❤
1:16 Khaos Nightwolf
U funny for that
Shredder Sub-Zero stays GOATed
Netherrealm needs to learn how to make this vibe
I was just thinking about this thank you
2:40 I always love this getup 😂
They should have kept using raidens teleport sound from MK2. Sounds so cool but sucks how they stopped after armageddon i think
Nothing beats liu kangs get up
You Forgot about these 3 Kobra's one Kai's one and Bo Rai Cho's one with his original colors
You forgot Kobra and Bo Rai Cho's unique get up animations with their original color costumes and alternative costumes
Kobra has the same one as Kai, I believe.
Yes you forgot Kai also
Some of them are glitch out and performs those Get Ups or Stand Ups Animations in the Air and land on the ground and floor
Shao Kahn is the Superman.
What the hell with final
I wish u can pick your own get up from Kreate your Kharacter in Armageddon
Sub-Zero's getup is actually the same as Shinnok and Ermac's
Yeah you forgot Bo Rai Cho with his original colors and alternate costumes and Kobra Kai
The best game ever
2:14
Sheeva: I need a gun!
Cj: I got a gun
My favorite is Ermac
Where is Kitana?
Kitana has generic punch the ground getup unfortunately.
@@Deyrax_ Why is she not in this video?
Because this video only shows unique getup animations? Please use your reading skills effectively next time
@@MonsterEnjoyer88 Could it be because I'm not English? There is no rule that all people know English.
I wrote a comment because I didn't see Kitana in this video, I didn't do anything wrong
Nice video deception next
Excelente 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Most characters with unique getups are from MKD. The rest use recycled animations.
Deadly alliance don't have does.
KIRA ❤ LI MEI 💜
MK1 screwed up the character designs of the deception characters so badly that I wish it had never been made. Ashrah, Li Mei, and Tanya deserved so much better.
please put the same or similar gameplay as mk9
What
"Skins"
who are the girls at 2:42 ?
Kira and Sareena
1:34 mileena
2:33 😼
Mk armagedon intros😂😂😂
Li Mei was soooo much cooler back here
I always mess with khan
3:51 Ew! 🤮
