I think either MK Trilogy or Deception was the best of the series.

[GoldenJoe]

MK has some really amusing stuff in it, but gameplay-wise, I always thought it was the worst of the major fighters.

[MissingnoTheGreat]

@GoldenJoe

That's because it was more about being flashy.

[Blitzbok]

@stryker1500 Deception was a disaster. Trilogy imbued everything that was good about the series.

Damn, I remember clocking MK1 on master system and they had a downgraded version of 6:32 playing for the credits after clocking it. I hear ya bra

[Alleng9]

mk9 has changed the game of fighters and took all fighting games to a hole new level

[elamit]

Nice collaboration of music! My personal favorites 4:34 and 6:32. 6:32 being far harder to find anywhere and too short. Nice!

@DepressionMoon

Kung Lao made was introduced into the series in MK2.

[DepressionMoon]

I don't remember Kung Lao being in Mortal Kombat II only III.
