I love the announcer in MK4. It's only better in Deadly Alliance/Deception. I think it's actually Quan Chi in all three of those games. (Hey, you mentioned it) I just watched you play MK4 the other day in an older video. If you fail again, I'm gonna be convinced you can't beat this one! Though as it goes on, it's looking like it's gonna happen. You've shown huge growth since the Liu Kang run! Practice really pays off DanDan. Yeaaahhhh, you did it! I remember marking out when seeing this ending for the first time. It was crazy being someone who played Mythologies a lot around that time and seeing it pay off here. I love everyone Mythologies introduced and the lore in the booklet was awesome. The game isn't great, but I love it for the nostalgic rush. Shinnok and Quan Chi are some favorites to this day. I'd love more MK4 content.
Oooh, Mortal Kombat 4?????? This is awesome! This game is HIGHLY underrated in my opinion and needs more love. It’s not the best game, of course not, but it’s super fun, still to this day. Very great choice, Ian.🙂👍
My first experience with Mortal Kombat 4 was actually the N64 version, I believe I played the playstation version possibly before, can't fully remember was so long ago. I currently have the N64 version so no loading screens. But, as we all know the no loading is just compensating for no FMV. Good to see this game Ian... Awesome.
Fun fact that a lot of people probably don't know: when playing as Quan Chi in the PC version of Mortal Kombat 4, he doesn't use his own fatality (unless you're in a mirror match.) He steals his opponents fatality. Kinda cool lesser known discovery.
Ohhhhh I see that quest you do for Shinnok, in the Netherrealm, in Deception, was just a little reference to the fake amulet here. Could say Shujinko was Quan Chi's courier haha.
Omg I remember MK4 I've never played it but everytime I went to the Oakland free market I see Quan Chi face on the Arcade Machine and I'm just like he looks constipated ever time and seeing that face again in your thumbnail just reminds me of it
I feel like Trilogy is MK3's final cut and Gold is that for 4. Ultimate was awesome, but I highly prefer Trilogy because lots of characters got some new spice. Except Kabal, he got fucked pretty hard. A lot of hard work for damage almost tied by a simple uppercut lol
Lmao. Still love Quan Chi’s fatality. MK Gold, at least to me, feels like UMK3 was to MK3. Just added characters and maybe some backgrounds like the Church.
So apparently John Tobias had said that they had originally made Reiko to be a potential reincarnation of Shao Khan but they retconned that after all the backlash from fans and the main story writer deciding to make them different people.
Some of the best voice acting in any game ever. "HO I'M GONNA THROW YOU OVER THERE!" Always remember my brother and I used to laugh at the crap they said in this game
One of the more hectic installments in the franchise. Loved the fast gameplay, extra cheesy voice acting, and overall atmosphere. I even like to watch the opening cinematic nearly every time i pop it in too. Something about it
My greatest memory of this game, playing with my cousin and choosing Reptile ONLY because he is green and that was my favorite color at the time. Such simpler times.
I'ma assume this playthrough comes from the time Ian said he would rather play as Quan Chi instead of Sub-Zero on the arcade version of Mortal Kombat 4 in his Mortal Kombat retrospective. Good on ya.
This game reminds me of going to this epic place here in Canada called Playdium! It was awesome tons of arcades ,go carts , rock climbing! I remember being so happy seing mortal kombat 4 and being like wtf it's 3D lol
I love MK 4. My favorite version of it is the Dreamcast exclusive Mortal Kombat Gold. They added 6 more characters to the roster (Kung Lao, Mileena, Baraka, Kitana, Cyrax and Sektor) and a couple of new levels....and yes it IS MK 4 even if you don't consider it MK 4 lol.
@@616Entertainment If you played the yellow/gold disc version then yes but they released a red disc version with a lot of the bugs/glitches fixed. Eurocom were rushed with MK Gold and Hydro Thunder by Midway so they released patched/updated versions. They have a Hot/New! sticker on the manual.
that woul be great if you did a full playthrough of all characters to get the endings. me personally i love all your compilation videos. Looking forward to future MK Mondays for sure
That ending…how did I only now figure out that Shinnok was an Elder God? Like I knew in Annihilation he was, but that barely counts haha. I would have sworn that Cetrion was the first playable Elder God, that’s some egg on my face. I never played much MK4, besides a few rounds on my friend’s N64 back in the day. I remember thinking the 3D sidestepping mechanics were cool, but I wasn’t super into the character models. Early 3D fighting games had some work to do, hahaha. Great stuff man, I’d check out more MK4 playthroughs for sure!
@@616Entertainment I mostly mean the 3D polygon models themselves, not the characters’ costumes…I’d probably pick and choose, but MK4 Quan Chi would be VERY welcome from Storm haha
Back when Mortal Kombat trilogy was on the ps1 I was heavy into MK. I remember when MK4 came out and it was still on the arcades. I used to go and play and it was in “3D” for that time. I didn’t like it as much until years later when Deadly alliance and deception would come out. I appreciated MK4 afterwards.
You seen the Mortal Kombat Conquest? Quan-Chi is in a couple episodes of that and, if you thought Brian Thompson's performance in Annihilation was a big ol' helping of ham and eggs, you gotta check those episodes out. How to describe it? It's like every syllabe is coming out of him in full stops. No. Bod. Ee. Can. Com. Pete. With. I. The. Great. Quan. Chi!
Some or lots of folks hate MK4 but to be fair, the endings on MK4 are among the best imo cause it’s a mini movie. Now in recent MK games (MK9 all the way to MK11) the endings are just pictures with voices of the character’s voice endings.
To me it's funny how the PC and PSX versions have FMV endings added and the N64 version uses the in game engine for the endings like the arcade version, its one of those changes that enhanced the presentation And of the many gibberish in the game they sometimes speak Spanish, including curse words in Spanish And please whenever possible do try to continue playing this with all the other characters!!!
Love me some MK4... has my favorite lines of "MK jibberish" Would you consider playing "MK Gold" on an upcoming Mortal Kombat Monday? I consider that one to be the equivalent of "UMK3"... kind of like "Ultimate MK4". Edit: For your GC games, maybe consider buying a Wii second hand... they're pretty cheap, and they're basically a Wii/Gamecube. Runs GC games better, and the hardware lasts longer... I've gone through three GC's, but still have and use the same Wii.
Definitely need more MK4 man! 100% on board with full Playthroughs of all characters my dude👍specially when we get to that jax ending? Yes please haha Hell of an episode brotha! #ThanksForWhatYouDo #WeAreTheDanDans #MuchLove #MortalKombatMonday
Unpopular opinion here, but I kinda like Reptile's MK4 look. I respect the attempt to break away from the palette swaps and give Reptile his own identity.
I prefer a more reptilian Reptile. The MK9 design is my favorite just bc that was my introduction to Reptile. But definitely like the animalistic designs over the pallette swapped ninja look
@@616Entertainment I know I know. But its good for just cheesing the AI in this game. Just ask RQ87, he did some playthroughs of MK4 where the teleport stomp worked out well.
It's quite fitting how people nowadays were debating which version of Mortal Kombat 4 is better because obviously the better version will always be the arcade version but for console speaking, I got to say either the N64 or MK4 Gold is the superior one.
@@616Entertainment to me it's identical to the original arcade version especially that both endings are again identical that's why I prefer it because it resembles the arcade version of Mortal Kombat 4 and for Mortal Kombat 4 Gold, it's basically the graphics even though yes it is bugged but I'm not hating on the PS1 version, I grew up playing it and I've never played the PC version.
I never understood why Scorpion had a purple background in the select screen. Also what the fuck are those points on top of the ninja's heads in this game?
You ever have trouble with PS1 games on PS2? I remember playing my X-Men COTA on PS2 and having issues, and I tried it on the PS3 and it was not having any of it. The PS3 makes more sense as its emulation but I cant remember what the PS2 issue was. I have this on the PS1 and the N64 (same with Trilogy) and I dont know which played better.

I always but the strategy guides for Mortal Kombat just outt habit, plus years ago I was buying guides for 1 penny plus shipping on Amazon, and its not like that any more.
I really like all the wrestling references as you play Mortal Kombat games lol. Lot of MK knowledge combined with wrestling stuff is great.
Yeah like when Raiden did a Power bomb he yelled "POWER BOMB!"

Mk 4 was my first mk game ever and 2nd ever game this was so nostalgic.....yeah do it with every character
me2 it ws my 1st mk
Mk3 for me.
I would also definitely be down with the full set!
Shang Tsung: Your soul is mine!
Quan Chi: Your leg is mine!
Really good.
We really need to see Mortal Kombat 4 remastered or at least a port of it on modern consoles.
Lmao. Still love Quan Chi’s fatality. MK Gold, at least to me, feels like UMK3 was to MK3. Just added characters and maybe some backgrounds like the Church.
I love Mortal Kombat 4 I have good memories playing with my cousins and friends back in the 90s! 👍🏻
It's a good one.
MK4 honestly has the best gibberish in the series
MK 4, I remember playing the N64 version. Me and siblings still had fun with it. Especially when we used cheat mode
So apparently John Tobias had said that they had originally made Reiko to be a potential reincarnation of Shao Khan but they retconned that after all the backlash from fans and the main story writer deciding to make them different people.

Awesome episode Ian! I remember 3 years ago when you did an episode of Let’s play Friday and it was Mortal Kombat 4!!! it made my day!
Here we are!
Quan Chi's fatality always tickles me
One of the more hectic installments in the franchise. Loved the fast gameplay, extra cheesy voice acting, and overall atmosphere. I even like to watch the opening cinematic nearly every time i pop it in too. Something about it
That's because the intro felt like an honest to goodness in-game trailer.
I got MK Gold on Dreamcast with the extra kharacters! Basically MK 4 updated!
My greatest memory of this game, playing with my cousin and choosing Reptile ONLY because he is green and that was my favorite color at the time. Such simpler times.
Ian, I have an idea for 2 "MK Monday" episodes: The best MK clones (Thrill Kill should be here) & the worst MK clones (Kasumi Ninja should be here).
MK4's endings are so great. Especially the Sonya/Jarek/Jax trilogy.
I love these ladder play throughs. MK4 is reallty the only game I didn't spend a lot of time with in the franchise, so it's cool to see these endings.
Hell yea brudda.
Big gap in my timeline too

When this game was first released, my brother called the boss man Shinook too. Therefore I thought that was his name for about two years.
Ps yes he did sidestep. But it was before you released the skull so it seems like the greatest sorcerer ever could have aimed better.
