I really miss the more oriental inspired aesthetic of the original MK games, it kinda went away as the series progressed.

if only kids today could know the felling of hearing this for the first time as you enter the blood code. There was no game as intense as MK back then it shocked the world and changed gaming forever.

Not trying to sound old-timey or elitist, but kids who didn't experience the early 90's explosion in fighting games REALLY missed out. For some quick background, my father ran his own video game store right around the time Mortal Kombat hit arcades. When it hit home consoles he bought this giant cardboard cutout of Goro for the store that I always marveled at as a kid. It was a special time back then until the late 90's when arcades died out and the fighting game market grew stale due to all the horrible copycat games flooding the market. Good times though!

Awesome. I always found this theme much more epic than those of the newer games. It has a classic martial arts movie feel to it. Thanks for posting.

Hearing this in the arcade *chills*

I am someone who grew up with the 3-D era for the PlayStation two and Xbox, and yet, there is something magical about the music of the first game that makes me come back to it more often than any. It gives me an old western vibe, when the lone gunmen is fighting dozens of men on horseback to reach his rival and save the girl. Considering that this is a dueling game and the soundtrack is electronic, I have no idea why I feel this way, but I love it!

Massive machine for four players, blinding marquee, and if the arcade owner had the machine volume up, the bass cannon would vibrate through your ribs. When a turtle bit the dust in the demo or from someone playing, you'd hear "SHELL SHOCK!" over everything else around you lol

Man I seen this for the first time in Rhode Island when I stumbled into open air arcade right off the beach side. I was only 10 and the machine was cranked up so fkn high it was vibrating the little metal swing-lid on the quarter changer lol. I couldn't even get up to the machine because there were a crowd of popped collar jock guys all over it flipping tf out. They were betting money on matches. Never got to play until my ol man got me the SNES sweat version, but I was obsessed since then. I miss arcades so much even though I wish I was older at the time

I remember this sounding so epic when it first came out. MK1 was so original at the time.

Even if this game was one of the most controversial in it's debut, it's still known as the game that changed the entire gaming industry by some today.

"Sonya". Oohh, that voice!

This is my favorite music to ever come from mortal kombat

They gotta get him back on the MK soundtracks. The music in MKX was very underwhelming. I still can't hum anything...I can't recall any music lol. There's just nothing memorable about the themes in MKX.

This is where it all started !! And all you had were 7 characters : Liu Kang, Johnny Cage, Raiden, Scorpion and Sub-Zero, Kano and Sonya Blade. Back then the characters were digitized images of actors/martial artists dressed up as them and I thought that was cool in addition to the blood and fatalities (which made Mortal Kombat popular but what also got it in trouble).
