Description


Five hundred years ago, an ancient and well respected Shaolin fighting tournament, held every 50 years, was corrupted by an evil and elderly sorcerer by the name of Shang Tsung. Shang was accompanied by Prince Goro, a warrior of the Shokan race (a four-armed half-human / half-dragon). Knowing that if ten tournaments in a row were won by the Outworld champion, the Earth Realm would be conquered by evil and fall into darkness, Shang entered Goro in the tournament and had him defeat the great Kung Lao. Goro has been reigning supreme as the undefeated fighting champion for five hundred years now. As the last tournament required draws near, Raiden, Thunder God and protector of the Earth Realm, enacts a plan to tip the scales in the humans' favor, Seven fighters step into the arena on Shang Tsung's mysterious island: Shaolin warrior Liu Kang, Special Forces operative Sonya Blade, the mercenary thug Kano, fame-seeking actor Johnny Cage, the ice-wielding Lin Kuei warrior Sub-Zero and his undead adversary Scorpion, and Raiden himself.

Re-live this arcade classic with the first 3 instalments of the Mortal Kombat franchise. Power through on-on-one combat with special multi-button attacks and moves unique to each character, including the famous fatality. In this bundle die-hard Mortal Kombat fans can move on to the third instalment which introduces network play, where they can challenge other die-hard friends to see who is truly the king of kombat. Other features include dial-a-combo attacks, a run button to speed up battles, and vs codes, which unlock new powers and abilities once both players enter a code sequence in pre-match-up screens.

Controls do not work

This version is horrible, controls do not work and it is not possible to configure the graphics. I know it is a DOS old version, but they should at least adjust theses games to modern computers. These games were very cheap, so I won´t ask for a refund. I will have to play on keyboard.

great but ...

it's dos, no xbox-controller-support in this game...to play with keyboard doesn't make that much fun... yeah, i have the dosbox & i play from time by time in it, but with no controller ? i can recommend 'Mortal Kombat Trilogy', it is still on my wishlist, it's for win10 plus controller-support, just 10 bucks... it's a nice add-on for my 2 lil i4770/i4790 4gb gpu 8/16gb ram win10 pc's; on them i play older pc (90's - early2010's)/dos/amiga-emu games...still looking out for older cheap games on sale...

Really strange,but hopefully helpfull

I am probably the guy, who spent more time playing DOS MK1 than anyone, or at least almost anyone on this planet :) Finished the game on very hard with every character (except Sonya, she is... pathetic, ahem, unbalanced in MK1, sorry). There are two DOS versions of MK1, difference being separate MK.exe and SETUP.exe - or just one MK.exe, with F10 taking you to setup. The first version is older (earlier year) and has a cheating AI - but lacks Reptile. Second is far more convenient. So, the actual criticism I have, is about MK2 and MK3. Given that something like "Mortal Kombat Trilogy" exists, there is little point of not including it into the game, as it essentially unites all characters into one huge game with all arenas (with MK3 mechanics, that is) and offers network play. Why this is not included... is beyond my understanding. =) This is crime! =)

Controller doesn't work

Bought this after reading jdvorak.913's review, but he is misleading as xbox controller WON'T WORK WITH THIS GAME The game will detect it, sure, but the deadzone is too sensitive and will result in the character jumping by himself also the game runs too fast as can be seen on the character select screen Don't bother with this, better off with emulating the console versions
