The first time I heard about Mortal Kombat was when I was in a Video Game Museum.
I saw the Nintendo 64, the Sega Saturn, the GameBoy family and many more.
When I looked at the Super Nintendo, there was a lot of cartridges beside it.
I saw Mortal Kombat in that pile. I got curious so I searched it and found this game.
Graphics: 9
The graphics are really decent and are superior compared to the Mega Drive (Genesis) version.
The developers used more complex colors on all of the sprites than in the Mega Drive version because the SNES had a bigger color palette.
So, in a nutshell, the graphics are great.
Sound: 10
The sound and music are very clear and FAR superior than the Genesis.
The music sounds like actual music that you can play on an actual instrument rather than 8-bit music or computer generated music.
The voices are also very clear.
In the Mega Drive version, when Scorpion would say: "GET OVER HERE!" it sounds like the voice was amplified to much and you would hear some static. It's kind of like if you heard Scorpion say that from a radio with a damaged antenna.
In the Super Nintendo one, the quality of the sound is much better.
Addictiveness and Depth: 7
The replayablility value is lower because there's just not much to do.
All you do is fight, fight, fight.
There's a two-player mode where you fight each other to the death or for fun or to see who's better.
There's also no blood.
Although it's kind of minor; you need at least some blood to give you the true feeling of beating someone up.
They should've had an option or a code that you had to put in like in the Genesis version.
There are 7 characters to play as and each one is unique.
They all look cool, too.
Cage has sun glasses, Sub-Zero has a neat costume and Rayden has a bunch of rays around him.
You basically fight many characters until you fight Goro and finally, the Mortal Kombat Master (not for long, though), Shang Tsung.
Difficulty: 8
The difficulty can be INSANELY hard sometimes.
The more you advance, the harder your opponents get.
Luckily, the Super Nintendo Controller has about all of the buttons you need to make things easier.
On the Mega Drive, there's not enough buttons.
You need to know many button combinations or anything like that to perform some moves.
Anyways, what I'm saying is that you need to know what to do or what strategy to use to out smart your opponents...or, just mash buttons.
End of the line...
I don't care if you agree with my opinions or not, but all I want to say is, this game is quite decent.
I think this is a lot better than the Genesis (Mega Drive) version despite not having blood.
