Without a doubt, the inferior fighting game franchise to come out of the 90's. For me, this would never compete with the mighty Street Fighter.

Good game, but not enough characters

The good thing about this game, is its graphics(compared to other games in its time). Characters look better than those from Street Fighter. Special mocves are great, and the ending specials are truly amazing.

Overall, MK is a descent game, one earning a 3.5/5
Which is 3.5/5x2= 7/10

Como me gustaba jugar a este juego... me acuerdo que con mis primos alquilábamos un sega para jugar este juego y todo... me acuerdo que había un truco para ponerlo sangriento y todo (por algún momento en aquella época, este juego era muy violento)... y miren a dónde estamos hoy día :P
