Rip Some Spines in MK Arcade Kollection

MOOOOORTAL KOOOMBAAAAT!

I think I'm going to stick to the new MK, though. These old games are great, but... they're old.

A must purchase for me!

I'm still conflicted on this. MK9 is really good, but I might pick up the fight stick from GameStop that comes with a download code for the game.

Since MK9 came out, I don't feel a strong need to play the older MKs. It's not like Street Fighter 3rd Strike where the game still holds up and plays well compared to SF4; the early MK games were a bit of a mess to play. UMK3 might still be worth it, but again, MK9 fills that need quite nicely.

Please be released in Australia. Please be released in Australia.

so controverseeeeeeal

I would've totally bought this in a pre-MK9 world.

This QFT. I wish it had come out before MK9, then I would have picked it up no bother. However, anytime I want MK action now, 9 is enough for me. Shame though, looks like a great package.

'controversee-al' okay then...

It's not on Steam yet!! WTF? Where can I buy it from on the PC?

Wowzers

They should release this on Steam.

Ill say i wont buy it, i even believe it right now, but i guarantee ill see it on the live marketplace and before i know what ive done ill have it in my download queue...

These games revolutionized the letter K.

all of the MK!

MK 2 and 3 were released to tell the tale of the Mortal Kombat tournament? Riiiiight.

They should have that commercial from when the first MK was released on home systems as a unlock

The time to release this was a month or two before the release of MK9. Oops.

Tempting but I still need to get back into MK9. I took some time to play LA Noire but I really want to see what they are going to do next.

If this uses the same netcode as MK9 then I'm not buying this.

MAME?

This trailer just reminded me that arcades used to exist.

Will probably buy it, if my hardcore MK friend get's it to, just to see every single fatality being probed on me.^^

Also going to chime in with the "MK9 is too good to warrant purchasing this" sentiment.
 
Definitely would have eaten this up a month or so before 9, though.

weeeeee! I'll definitely pick this up

I probably can't play these after MK9 and I've never even played these! MK9 just plays too well.

This could have been extra special if they recaptured everything in HD.

Won't be picking these up as the current MK is the only one worth playing now. Good Package if you want some very old skool MK.

What the fukk. Arcade? Arcade?!! Should be Arkade. These guys don't know how to do Mortal Kombat...

1992... It hasn't even been 19 years since MK1; so, doesn't saying "decades," plural, seem a bit disingenuous?

Was this not supposed to be released on steam as well ?

Takes me back to the days when we had to play this game in secret.

@nyv: The "k" is only for words that start with "c"

@MarxMygdala: You raise a... point. Not a good one, but a point nonetheless.

Interesting, though unless they plan to include multiple versions of each game, this seems like an overenthusiastic way to finally release MK1. Love me some MK, but I don't want MK1 that badly.

If the versions of MK2 and UMK3 in this package are leagues better than their original digital releases, than that's cool...

But I was much more excited for this when it was rumored to be an HD remix, with new digitized actors. I would've at least liked it if they included Rain and Noob from the console versions of UMK3 (their playable debut wasn't in Trilogy, contrary to popular belief).

But, hey, I'll still get it, if they fixed all the stupid crap from the original PSN/XBLA versions. It's 10 bucks!

I hope I get to play this in a manner similar to Game Room.

This online experience better be fucking better then MK9, all I'm saying.

I hope this one will make it to the german live marketplace

this is awesome

I kept waiting for this trailer to segue in to a full blown Mortal Kombat "making-of" documentary. What a let down!

"Decades." Two of them.

i'll buy this cause i'm weak and OG Raiden kicks ass.

Well, they're in their second decade, so I guess it counts.

They're counting it like this: 90s, 00s, 10s. Three decades. You guys are hilarious.

Arcade collection? Neat!

Amazing how silly the original MK games look now...
