i remember the first time when i saw it in a local store (it was recently released) and i was amazed by the amount of gore and everything, it sure was a revolutionary game then and still have that special place in my heart
Fun fact about the original Mortal Kombat: it's the video game that, due to its extensive grotesque violence, made the video game rating system necessary.
@spideymayne Originally, all 3 MK games were going to be on Midway Arcade Treasures 2, but it was scrapped and MK1 became part of a bonus disc on the Kollector's Edition of MK:Deception. However, all 3 MK games are on the PSP (as part of MAT: Extended Play) and the PC version.
I wish I owned this arcade cabinet this game is so great it is such a shame that they don't have it at my local Buffalo Wild Wings place anymore I would want to play this game just to kill some time after a good or bad day on watching a sports event at Buffalo Wild Wings
The game was originally heavily inspired by Enter the Dragon. In fact, Liu Kang and Bruce Lee were protagonists, while both the film and the fighting game are owned by Warner Bros.. Even the game's logo and the film's title fit well. Unfortunately, fans in USA didn't care to praise protagonists and went with who they think is "coolest". ﹰAnd martial artists were overshadowed by stealth fighters known as ninjas. That's a reason why Sub-Zero and especially Scorpion overshadowed the importance of Liu Kang in the MK franchise.
I beg to differ. The Amiga version only ever had like two tracks on it. On for the character select and main menu and the other for the entire gameplay.
my favorite version of mortalm kombat 1 is the arcade one i grew up with this game the nice thing is that i bought the Klassic arcade stick for the ps3 that comes with mk 1 mk2 and umk 3 and it really feels like playing on the arcade EXCELLENT!!!!!
Me & my cuzzin used to ride the bus afterschool with a Roll of Quarters, from the Laundrymat just to play this at the Arcade lol! Classic... #1993 Swag

Justin. M to be honest the Super Nintendo version was probably the worst because it was missing all the blood and gore and is even uglier than the arcade

It was a good game 25 years ago and it's a good game now.
Wardner213 IKR, Goro looked SO menacing unlike the modern day Goro in my own opinion

Xavier Moncada-Martin IKR, SO cool!
Nowadays, this is a mere paper cut compared to the video games of today when it comes to violence and it being more life like.
Wasn’t it because of subzeros fatality where he rips off his opponents head off
A law was created because of Mortal Kombat. That was something it's rivals never could achieve.
I just think it was funny about the speculation of what Raiden was saying. I've heard so many theories over the years this game was in the arcade.

This game led to the creation of the very first video game rating system in the history of video gaming.
Aieyagagaaaaaa aieyabaleeeeeeiiiii !
I liked the way this mortal kombat looked, the characters looked much more realistic then afterwards.
Most epic move in this video - Shang Tsung freezes you as Sub-Zero, morphs to Goro, and just...stands there.

2:01 Please select the character
2:08 Choose your Destiny
@spideymayne MK1 wasn't featured on either one of the PS2 Midway Arcade Treasures titles, in Midway Arcade Treasures 2, MK2 and MK3 was featured.

WB didn't owned Mortal Kombat until NetherRealm Studios was founded and created a reboot version.
I beg to differ. The Amiga version only ever had like two tracks on it. On for the character select and main menu and the other for the entire gameplay.
I have never seen someone have as much trouble doing Scorpion's fatality as you sir.
Normal Game Fighter *when doing skill* : "Blazed Tiger's Claw!"
Raiden: "I don't need any name, Aiiiiyayayagahhhhhhh!"
LMAO
my favorite version of mortalm kombat 1 is the arcade one i grew up with this game the nice thing is that i bought the Klassic arcade stick for the ps3 that comes with mk 1 mk2 and umk 3 and it really feels like playing on the arcade EXCELLENT!!!!!
so what does raiden actually say when he flys from one side of the screen to the other "johnnys got a caaaar?"
18:52 Scorpion casually puts his face back on, lol
who make and created this video game in 2d
The sound Raiden made... really ROFLMAO!!
Animamaleeee!!!
Is there other games with real human fatality like this ?
what was the finishing move of raiden. loved using him in this game. And what snes buttons where they for his finisher???
What's so good about Scorpion that you only did his ending?
use to play as a kid back then good times on the sega genesis classic.
ayyingbabalayyyyyyyyyyy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GEETIINNNDEKAAAAARRR!
Yo Where Dashie At?
@2011Tatin No, he's still Chinese, but speaks Japanese so he can understand what his opponent is trying to say
Haaaa coucou pépeeeeeeyyyyyy comme on disait a lepoque 😂😂😂
Why Raiden, why not Liu Kang.
@2011Tatin
Maybe...he was a Japanese male born within a Chinese clan
921natedawg? How You Know That DVDs?
I am untouchable at this game as sub zero.... UNTOUCHABLE
Sub Zero is my go to character in any Mortal Kombat game
@KingamongmenIIV That's who he was supposed to be.
Why does it sound like a clown horn whenever you do a high punch a bunch of times?
He can have all the cars he want, 'cause is a superstar!
I used to just sit down and punch and pretty much always won lol
The game that dawned the ESRB, specifically 24:00.
I like more if i see Liu Kang played by Robin Shou. They have choosed an perfect actor for Liu Kang,and that man it's Robin shou
There is an error...the game made a mistake...it was Sonya Blade but it said Johnny Cage.
3:31 "PRAISE BE TO GAAAAAAAAW!!!!"
I love raiden banter.
what version of mame were u using to play this?
Sub zero's fatalitie was the best of all of them.
i used to play mortal kombat 3
Sub Zero is the best character IMO. Hands down!!
Me & my cuzzin used to ride the bus afterschool with a Roll of Quarters, from the Laundrymat just to play this at the Arcade lol! Classic... #1993 Swag
Johnny Cage's knocking off 3 heads had 2 b the hardest fatality to achieve.
better than Street Fighter II??? I think not....
I was 11 when this came out in 1992. I put enough quarters into this game to finance a small country.
13:03
the way they are laid down. lol
"get over here!" yelled scorpion
ok mate, i'll just get my coat, said sub-zero.
The first time he ever said it was when he was against Quan-Chi.
sub zero, scorp, and sonya r my fav...
Mines Scorpion and Sub-Zero.
20:50 Shang Tsung Is Death For Lung Enphysema
Br Aqui relembrando infâncias?
It doesn't really make much of a difference when you have to hear the SAME OLD SONG FOR 12-13 BATTLES D:
@darthlord4699
Mortal kombat 9 is incredible, give that game a shot.
I think raiden is for green energy.
keep going man make tons of longplays xd
muito bom esse Mortal Kombat!
TOASTY!!!! xD
Extraño que no puede hacer la fatalitie de Scorpion cuando es la más fácil de ejecutar.
@kasouyumi don't think so
when i was a little kid i used to get mad at this game for not winning lol
It says there that Sub-zero is from a chinese clan, but in Mortal Kombat Legacy, he is japanese. Wow
Johnny cage will always be my fav
MEMORIES...
Sorreh about that but yeah. I'd rather have a full soundtrack with less quality than only one song anyday
Sonya will put it onya!
Great game at the time, nice vid.

2:17 Raiden: Ayyibabalayyyyyyyyy!!
In this first one, Scorpion was my favorite and was until the later MK Games within the series. Afterwards, I preferred guys like Raiden, Liu-Liu, Ermac, Shao Kahn, AND EVEN ONAGA FFS!!!!
I also admit to like Taven and Daegon along with Bo Rai Cho, Blaze, and Rain a little bit, but Kenshi has actually become my new favorite in front of Raiden, Liu Kang, Shao Kahn, Taven, and Ermac.
Eh, I prefer Joker.
Slycat128 A Guest Kombatant...over The Most Notable Faces of Mortal Kombat? ....I see.
@@C0DYM4N99 I'm joking. My favorite person I guess is Scorpion after seeing the new MK Scorpion movie.
14:22
*round of applause
got there in the end.. :)
Wow, I've never seen anyone roundhouse kick Shang Tsung in this game before.
If you watch the new MK movie, you'll get so much nostalgia cause it's actually like the game.
Muito Fraaacoooo!
Com 10 anos eu jogava bem mais!
"JOHNY CAGE" Yet it was Sonya. LOL xD
Liu Kang is the hardest ai to beat by far
The First Mortal Kombat; My favourite is.......
Sub-Zero (Sub-Zero FOREVER)

Justin. M to be honest the Super Nintendo version was probably the worst because it was missing all the blood and gore and is even uglier than the arcade
Christopher Mata and don't forget the input lag, but the game boy version is worst
My favourite ones are Sub zero and Scorpion.

Kano is pretty dangerous too.=(
