I miss mk3/trilogy for its aesthetic....the sound, the music, the art, it's better now graphic/character design wise but it's just too damn polished also...
@@drunkdonutboy Proof that too much CPU power and high pixel counts can work against the player's expectations; the original MKs had more appeal, less complicated characters and "simpler", more effective costumes because home consoles weren't powerful enough to render them in a hyperrealistic style so your mind 'filled in' the gaps in the "crude" 32bit graphic presentation, just as cartoonists like Schultz (Peanuts) and Watterson (Calvin & Hobbes) draw 'simply' and yet still hit home making emotional points.
At 9:57 and anywhere in this match, I've notice Cyrax voice goes deeper. Every time the net move is blocked here. Starts of normal at start tower, then all of sudden goes down an octave. Remember this happening a lot with the robot ninjas, when I use to play this on the PS1. Doesn't happen on emulators. Odd thing to point out but just remember happening a lot on the PSX.
The first several times I got to him, I was terrified. I wanted to stay far away from him, but all of the projectiles bounced back! Once I pulled my first combo on him, I realized, "Oh, you just fight him like everyone else." I thought there'd be some crazy trick or technique lol
@@thattower0w0 I mastered scorpion's brutality from playing umk3 (Genesis version)...oh the days of trial and error until I was able to do it more than 10 consecutive times
Damn I can't remember my son's birthday but I still remember how to do scorpion brutality since 1997 😬 by the way mortal kombat kollection for ps3 with out brutalities are unacceptable till this day 😒
it’s a ridiculous string of button inputs that you have to do in the correct order designed for your character. some characters have it easier as some have it harder
Stevenson Ceus To perform a Mercy, you must stand at mid range from your opponent and during the "Finish Him/Her" phase, Hold down the Run Button for Flip Stance, and then press Down three times, before letting go the Run Button.
You can't even play Mortal Kombat Trilogy on modern TVs now as the resolution onscreen looks massively pixilated. Ditto for ANY PS1 game now. Devs, remaster all of your PS1 games for 2020 consoles and Hi-res monitors, 4K screens and enjoy a tidy little permanent revenue stream for decades to come!
I never could execute most of the special attacks due to having to get the right order of d pad moves & buttons in a very short time while trying not to get killed!
This is my first time reading his post MK story. Why the heck is he buried in the desert background while you're fighting DURING the tournament??? Is there some time loop happening too?
That background was added to Ultimate MK3. Although the game was an update to the original MK3, the story actually takes place afterwards. Cyrax got stuck in the desert after MK3, but before UMK3. MK Trilogy is also non-canon, just a sort of recap of the events of MK1, 2, 3, and UMK3.
Wait did you have to manually do the brutalities?? I remember having this game but always inputting one button fatality’s. No way you had to hit each button until they blew up
