I like Shao a lot GW, but I gotta say that Shang is the true MK villain. Dude played 5D chess, knowing that even if he died, he’d eventually get the crown and Kronikas power. Let’s just see how the new Shang is in MK1, high hopes.

[@lukerussell3782]

He also killed off “the main character” in the beginning of a game

[@JediMasterRevenantMADNESS]

I mean that entirely depends on who you choose for that final fight in the DLC. And in canon we know Lui Kang wins, cause of what we've seen of MK1 so far.

[@JamesJome123]

@@JediMasterRevenantMADNESS still got the crown though, Liu Kang was just playing 6D chess

[@Will_Rules]

​@@JamesJome123nah Liu Kang was playing Checkers. His playstyle was so f'ing everywhere Shang couldn't see it coming

Nah it's shao kahn always, I mean he made and taught shang tsung in the first place, and is far more badass

This one is still my favorite MK game so far. So much nostalgia

[@BoyBlunder66]

Ah, MK9. I played the shit out of this before I kinda lost interest in the fighting games genre. I still have fond memories/PTSD from how viciously unfair the final fight against Shao Kahn was. 😅

[@andrewrader4408]

So glad this channel and CinemaWins exist to offset the cancer that is CinemaCins lol, been playing fighting games my whole life and love seeing them get more attention, especially this classic series, liked and subbed And yes, Tag Battles should 100 percent come back, and should be a mode in more fighting games.

[@Will_Rules]

CinimaSins is horrible, every other minute is a cringe my college ex girlfriend joke. Even though the narrator is married

[@raffikrikorian8424]

I know what you mean but the whole point of cinemasins is to essentially be dicks about movies, most of their sins aren’t even actual sins, but that’s kinda the point

[@raffikrikorian8424]

@@Will_Rulesit’s their whole shtick to be dicks about movies, they’re doing the most on purpose

[@robertwye9463]

​@@Will_Rules The whole point is that they're supposed to be Dicks about it, it's satirical criticism mixed with nitpicking if you can't handle that then you're watching the wrong stuff.

[@fandomcringebucket]

​​​​​@@robertwye9463Eh, the satirical angle got lost after a while IMO- there's a point where the nitpicking stopped being fun and started being more "didn't understand that scene" / "is intentionally ignoring context" / "taking something too seriously" / "not taking something seriously enough" after a while. Maybe I am the wrong audience for it, but I don't think it's wrong to not want toxic sludge slowly ruining my enjoyment of movies and other media after a while.

[@aidenpotter5952]

Oh the nostalgia i loved playing this game as a kid even if I just turned it on easy and button mashed. It was actually the first ever game I played.

[@crimsonhunter7598]

has anyone noticed that mk9, mkx and mk11 have a lot in common with avengers infinity war and endgame there is a big villain not from earth and he wants the strongest power in the universe and he has 2 daughters (shao kahn with jade and kitana, thanos with nebula and gamora) a wise character uses an artifact to see the future (dr strange, raiden) and realizes that the villain has to win there is a young strong woman with energy powers (cassie cage, miss marvel) the thunder god is defeated by the big villain (shao kahn and raiden, thanos and thor) there is a guy with knives (kano, drax) there is an agent (sonya, Black widow) there is an archer (kung jin, hawkeye) there is a guy with a round shield like weapon (kung lao, captain america) there is a guy with metal arms (bucky, jax) the thunder god gives his power to the main hero (raiden and liu kang, thor and cap) a large Number of characters die but they return to life because of time travel thats all i noticed but there could be more

[@sant41]

God i love this mk, it's my favorite of the whole franchise, thank you very much for reviewing it

[@OG_Gamer_Hoff]

You make me feel old, friend lol. I am 37 years old and remember when I played the first Mortal Kombat when I was 8 or 9. My Mom was cool with me playing games like this, because I knew from the start that it was fake and not to try any of it in real life. When this reboot came out, I was blown away. It was so cool seeing all of my favorite fighters again and to see them all of them look so detailed. The story had me hooked the entire time and my friends hated me for being so good with Sub-Zero lol.

[@GamerTimeNinja]

I started with Mortal Kombat X at a young age and I absolutely loved Johnny Cage and spamming crouch kick since he was one of the only normal-looking guys and just cool in general.

[@star.master_cranium]

If you think about it Mileena really did nothing wrong. It was Kitana who attacked her. Mileena just woke up and wanted to get to know Kitana. Add to Shao manipulating her into the beast we know and love and it’s even sadder. Poor thing.😢

[@theultimatewarlord69420]

We don't associate with a 99% naked beast woman in MK

[@repulser93]

Thank God for MK1 giving her a proper loving - if somewhat flawed - family.

[@damarbrannon-bledsoe4269]

Dude you forgot to mention how much in this game Johnny really looks like his inspiration JCVD lol I honestly just noticed it while watching your video bud! Keep the great video coming!

[@nightangelx1513]

I love this story because Raiden used to be my main, and it felt great to just whoop everyone in a row during the last act

[@yingyang6992]

The outro being in the announcer voice… chefs kiss😚

[@_Shadow--Gaming_]

I remember how Stryker was my main in this game. I wish he was at least a DLC character in MKX and MK11

[@kiracodinson]

I say “ great, let’s go ruin someone else’s life” every time I’m out with friends and we stop for a minute to check a map or confirm a reservation 😂

[@devonwaskahat5277]

I love the positivity in your channel and I'm so happy to see you do this game. I played MK9 religiously and could never get enough

[@thegamingknight2096]

Headcanon, Johnny Cage trademarked the letter C in universe, so that's why everything except him and his daughter's names are spelt with K instead. Johnny is the type of asshole who would do that. This is inspired by the fine bros trying to trademark "react"

[@majorearl12]

This MK was the first i bought myself. I tried the storymode and just couldnt get good for it, tried a few times and kept failing, loved the X-Rays, Sub-Zero and Scorpion. But had the book for it, and recently sold it for almost full price still as it was a collector's thing.

[@justaguyandadog2984]

i absolutely adored this game in my xbox 360

[@thenaut2111]

11:45 it's certainly a gimmick, I don't think it's stupid tho it's still very fun, especially with friends. "should always be 1 on 1" is kinda ironic now since the next game is gonna be centered around *technically* 2 on 2 fights

[@michaelrich7279]

I've been hoping that you would do this one, thank you thank you and thank you again. I was also around 12 when I played this amazing game and its wonderful for you to give it its wins. (In terms of hardest fights I've gotta go with Sheeva.) and to end this long comment, i loved the tag system, I have great memories of me and my friend swapping out to do our job in the tag tower.

[@sowsow6677]

So glad I can still enjoy this game on my xbox series x ☺

[@Waas]

I first played MK when I was 5 or 6 when it came out on the Sega Genesis all the way back in 92. I never beat it as I was a damn young kid but always enjoyed watching my dad and his buddies play it while inputting the cheat code to turn on blood.

[@Memorydraws]

10:26 you deserve a win for this-

[@deadshotdman6184]

Personally my favorite character to play was striker, I really enjoyed his super secret, super complex Bring-a-gun-to-a-fistfight technique

[@bloodycherri2798]

This game & the 3D games mainly Deception & Armageddon are my childhood so I’ll always love them. I do have some issues with MK9 now, mainly with the MK3 adaptation for the story. For what the story became in X & 11, I don’t like evil Sindel at all in 11. Also some of the costumes for women characters really don’t fit their character (mainly Kitana & Sonya, they just don’t feel right to me compared to their previous costumes). And Shao Kahn isn’t really a schemer as much in the previous games he used to be like. But it doesn’t bother me so much, I still love the game all the same. I was about 7 when I started playing the series, started with Armageddon playing with my older siblings. Now I’m 20 & still love the series so much & very much looking forward to MK1, the beta has been a blast & love the 3D characters getting a lot of representation in it. Since it’s been so long since we’ve seen many of them.

[@Hugeboss01]

Shaolin Monks was my first Mortal Kombat game and I always played ko-op with my dad.

[@atomicr4y472]

This really was the best of the NRS Trilogy.

[@YoungSpider-Gamer0724]

I love you commentary videos 👍🏿

[@mathizarrmalve6026]

I was born in 1994 and was playing Mortal Kombat since before I was even making memories, one of my earliest in fact involves my uncle and I playing Mortal Kombat Trilogy on his PS1 and I've been a super fan of the series ever since. So you bet your ass I pre ordered the kollectors edition of MK9 as soon as it was announced, that title screen was a rush of nostalgia unlike anything I've ever felt.

[@froilandragon5693]

8:33 Looking back I forgot how important this scene actually was for all 3 characters. Liu Kang, appalled, because this buffoon who apparently is very talented WON'T finish the job because he's been taught by Wu Shi monks that Outworlders are as ruthless and will give no quarter... Raiden, as he gives a calm and approving nod to this noob who happens to be a good fighter and believes that Johnny choosing not to kill is an act of human compassion, and for Johnny himself, thinking that this whole tournament is just for laughs and doesn't give a damn but for flicks and glory, and choosing not to kill Baraka because... Simply he looks astounded that his features are real. Fun!

[@dondoe1328]

3:41 "mewer three games" slight typo, video ruined goodbye

I hope a MK11 video is coming out soon, but this video is great and was the final straw for me finally buying MK9 as I'm a bit late to the Mortal Kombat scene.

[@tatsumachine6944]

Played this game in 2012/2013 with my older brother (16 &10) and we were absolute noobs as this was one of our first fighting game on a new console (ps3). We would take turns mashing the controls just to win. We bought the game because it had Kratos who we loved because we just finished GOW2. I remember beating Shao Kahn as Raiden with the tiniest health advantage known to man. We were shedding tears cause of excitement. My favourite character was Smoke and Noob and I am sure his was Scorpion and Raiden.

[@Particle_Ghost]

I still play it on Series X.

[@presidentpolk2363]

We just not gonna talk about how cold of a move 11:47 is huh

[@NeroCM]

I think the reason you like Johnny more as you get older is due to the sheer magnitude of confidence he exudes. The man is basically sculpted out of 100% solid confidence, and it has an effect.

[@monsiu]

As someone who entered the franchise through Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe, unironically I also purge it from my memory lol and consider this my canon entry to the universe.

[@mathybrain8]

I'd never considered that other states teach about the Trail of Tears later than mine. GamingWIns man learned about it freshman year of high school, meanwhile in Oklahoma, we put on plays about it in elementary.

[@CaptainKashup]

I think NRS deserve a win alone for making fighter games that appeal to the non-FGC audience. Seriously, Mortal Kombat is the only fighting game franchise that people will buy just to play the story mode. Sure, the writing isn't revolutionnary, but it's interesting enough to keep you engaged. And that's far more than any other competitors does.

"too bad through the course of the trilogy, it goes nowhere" Sums up the revenants and Dark Raiden

[@marcusfair5850]

The scorpion and Quan chi tag team match gave me the most trouble plus the cyber sub zero tag team

[@Insomniaaron]

I began MK here. This was just before MK11 came out. Still haven't played X yet despite having it a while. What I will give credit for these newer MKs is a main story mode with traditional Arcade style mode with character endings. Should be standard I feel. Fingers crossed for Tekken 8.

[@nightangelx1513]

I really miss the Tag Battles. Noting is funnier than getting a perfect combo going, only to tag your friend in and then they fuck it up 😂 it’s super fun to see 4 people dropping combos and yelling at each other for being so bad

[@spacegerbeel4321]

Fun fact, in MK 11 if you beat Kronika on the first stage, the cutscene is different, Liu Kang Brings kitana with him

[@vincentmarcellino7183]

This was the reboot that saved the franchise. Also the Vita version is actually the best version. All the DLC characters included and it works beautifully for playing on the bus or a plane. Also, you had trouble with the Reptile/Sub-Zero fight? That one was easy. Shang Tsung/Quan Chi combo was absolutely brutal

[@typhlosion7872]

In terms of tag team, I think it's an amazing concept... for casual play. It was horribly balanced competitively in MK9, but fun as hell, especially with other people. I like having some broken shit, but not a ton and kept casual

[@AyeCeeFR]

One thing I also like is the voice acting. I love kabal's voice when he has the mask on and smoke's voice is kinda funny but I love it too

I'm not a big fan of games like MK, but I started watching the cutscene story (and the various endings) of it around the time this one came out. Also, yes to Gamer Supps. I personally go for "Guacamole Gamer Fart 9000", but I'm biased since I'm a fan of TheRussianBadger.

[@ycarusgamer5187]

One of the best games would be incredible if it had a story mode with the dragon Onaga being the villain Along with the adaptation of Mythologies Sub Zero and having others characters that appear in the story And sometimes in the background of fights and also in the game history but are not usable and only appear as a reference And Easter eggs and their names are mentioned a few times they are: Kenshi,Rain,Skarlet,Cyber Smoke,Havik,Reiko,2 Khameleon,Tanya,Frost,Sareena,Nitara And finally Li Mei All of these characters are in the game in the story but are not used and playable,as well as the bosses Shao Khan,Kintaro,Motaro and Goro It's really a shame and a pain in my heart but the game is incredible and very good Being the best of all at the time and even today,he made the childhood of many,I just missed these characters and the extra story dlc with Onaga the main villain With all these extra characters Our hero characters getting to know each one of them in a story dlc It's a shame it didn't happen and will never happen... 🥺🤧😔 like and Bye!

[@follower2819]

I used to be critical of Raiden's pronoun game, but I since have realized that it was actually smart of him not to say Shao must win. Raiden could have interpreted that as Shao needed to win either of the tournaments beforehand and that means Shao would have been allowed to merge the realms and the elder gods would not have stopped him because he did it legit. This actually makes sense when you think about it and was absolutely big brain time for Raiden

[@Tores444]

All the characters in this game look like those A.I. gym bro edits of movie character.

My favourite MK9. MK 10 honestly felt like a downgrade after this game. I didn't know the story of previous 8 games but my friend who played this game with me had played like all games till shaolin monk and explained them to me while we were both little. Also the Cemetery where you unlock stuff is super cool with Koins. I love this games X ray moves and finishers more than the others simply because of the artstyle.

[@marbl3d45]

Tbh i think 10 is peak MK especially with the variant system but 10s story is sloppy
