  • In this video, I -- and several others throughout the Mortal Kombat community -- share our origin story and explain how we first found out about MK and how we got sucked down the rabbit hole! Huge thanks to Heel Levitation for the idea and everyone who contributed!

    Mortal Kombat changed my life forever. I give my mom and late pops credit for letting me and my brothers play. First MK was MK 1 on Sega Genesis and ever since I been a huge fan and have all of them. To me? Mortal Kombat is the greatest fighting game of all time!

    Mortal Kombat has always been a huge obsession for me. 1st time playing MK1 on the Amiga. Great memories, only to then see MKII at the arcade wow.. Still my favourite game to this day. Great games, great community.

      This may be a stretch, but did you host an MK site back in the early 2000’s called Dave’s MK? If you did, I used that for news and updates, all the way from pre-Deception and slightly after Armageddon, on top of MK Warehouse and Kombat Pavilion. :)

    Even more so, I'd like to do a version of this video myself, with players from my community, I think it's a grea idea.

    • @EgoClubOfficial
      @EgoClubOfficial Před 2 lety +3

      I thought of it. But I have another idea and that would be to have the mk kommunity react to parts of the mortal kombat deception konquest or just talk about it in general. Which ever works

    I started playing Mortal Kombat on the Sega Genesis when I was 7. I didn't know how to do any of the characters moves yet, and never performed any special moves except for Scorpion's GET OVER HERE and that was it. I didn't play MK 2 until I got it on the Game Boy and it only had two stages : The Pit and the Kombat Tomb. Then years later, I finally got a chance to play the Arcade version of that game in MK Shaolin Monks, and was REALLY surprised by how difficult it was. That's when I finally started looking up how to do the special moves and the fatalities and how I got better at the game, now I can beat it with no problems (except for the occasional continues here and there). I can't fight Smoke because that version of the game has a pause menu when you press start (which is the same button command you use to get him to fight you in the Living Forest stage).

    Hey tabmok. It's me (The Levitation Show) been awhile I've mainly been focused on my new channel where I do wrestling games. I might do other games on the channel like talking about Mortal Kombat. Who knows. Can't believe this video was posted about a year ago. Crazy how time flies by

    Took us about 8 months but we got it done. Since then I've completely changed my channel from the levitation show to heel levitation. But this was a genius idea I had that literally should've happened ages ago. And tabmok 99 I guess was the perfect person to help me with this.

    I first played MK1, but the first MK game I owned was MK4, so I consider it my first MK game, after that I bought my friend MK Trilogy, then I got Tournament Edition, then Deadly Alliance on the PS2 and finally Deception, it was then that my love for the series sort of plummeted, at least when it comes to newer games, I did get to play Armageddon which I also wasn't a big fan of, I hated MK vs DC, I was indifferent to MK9 and I didn't like MKX or MK11, instead of playing new games in the series, I tend to go for either Mortal Kombat Project, which is a Mugen based game, or one of the games in the series when it was in it's peak in terms of gameplay, like UMK3 or MK4.

  • @Schimnesthai

    I think that my first Mortal Kombat was 4 on PC... don't remember the year, but i think that my first character was Quan Chi, or atleast, the first that i enjoyed, the other one was Liu Kang... but in the end, i was more a Sub-Zero main.
    At this time my cousin had a PSone, but the PS2 was already a thing, later he got a PS2, we played Shaolin Monks and Armageddon, we competed to who did the most Fatalities in the make a Fatality mode. In 2009 i got my first official Mortal Kombat game, the only one on Wii, and to this day it is the only Mortal Kombat i own originally, i love it though and wish to buy more in the future. For now, my favorite Mortal Kombat is II.
