Mortal Kombat 2 Raiden Gameplay Playthrough

[@revokdaryl1]

I always loved that sound effect when Raiden gets up after being knocked down. The electricity flows through him.

[@panterarosa4325]

kidd thunder!!!

[@LUNITUNZBackup]

That's the sound he makes when he teleports. When he gets knocked down, he just teleports into an upright position instead of standing up.

[@revokdaryl1]

​@@LUNITUNZBackupYes, you're right! I wish I could do that lol. Much faster and more efficient than getting up like a normal person.

[@revokdaryl1]

@@sleepy7123 Yes, I like that sound effect too.

[@crankfotton]

It was better in the first one.

[@qasimmalik5581]

Who else loves the sound of the lightning after Raiden wins?...

[@illgil26]

I like when he wins, but the crackle is soft and has a "TH" sound. VERY RARE! Usually in the living forest, dead pool, and tower stages. Somethings the arena as well.

It's the sound of might

[@af7119]

The sound effects and the ambiance of this game are unmatched by all the future MKs.

[@Rocket1377]

The graphics are lacking in the modern games too. I liked Mortal Kombat better when the fighters looked like real people. The current cg models are oddly proportioned, and even the fantasy characters like Goro and Kintaro don't look as good as the old stopmotion miniatures.

[@MrRyguy2112]

Such a difference between MK and MK 2. They really stepped up and knocked it out of the park. Animation, sound and characters.

[@Collectingmythoughts]

I agree Mortal Kombat 2 was a major step up from the first game they did a lot more with MK2 compared to the first game nothing against the first MK game the sequel really stands out much more

[@PaladinDusty]

They were just messing around with MK. They were serious when they made MK2.

[@edwardgaines6561]

​@@PaladinDustyJust like Street Fighter 2, the first one was just a practice run!

[@stefantsarev4442]

​@@PaladinDustyAbsolutely! Better graphics, better sound, more characters, better gameplay, richer lore, two fatalities per character, three stage fatalities, friendships and three secret characters! Everything was more in every way!

[@trevertravis8963]

That's what a bigger budget can get you.

[@jasonharris996]

I remember when this came out in the arcade. I was a scrawny 12 year old and the older teens would hover around the game to the point you could barely see the screen, let alone play. And there was always that kid who studied all the GamePro strategy guides and would crush everyone. The hype kinda died down by MK3 (and Killer Instinct stole some of its popularity, too) but it still drew a crowd when it was new. Great memories, though.

[@ErikWolf2856]

I was that GamePro kid lol people used to stack lines of tokens on the arcade machine waiting their turn to play against me. Eventually everyone would get pissed off when they kept losing and would leave haha good times.

[@williamdougie6213]

I would destroy both of you

[@MacMac1313]

The screams of power exertion when he does the electric fly in this video are incomparable to any other MK game. Everytime I think of Raiden I think of this and that's what makes him stand out even more from other characters in the early games.

[@AntiMasonic93]

In the mid 90s, I used to play this game at the arcades almost every single day. I couldn't wait until my last class in high school was over so that way I could go to the arcades. The 90s were the best time.

[@tylerleon8888]

MK 2 had some kickass music. Even the music in the Genesis version is memorable. Still my favorite MK game.

[@Giax1264]

RAIDEN is my favorite player in this game! I have beaten this game countless times! The teleport, torpedo, and the uppercut are my favorite moves. All you have to do to beat this game is do the torpedo but you have to aim for your opponent's head, with the exception of the bosses. And you must know when to uppercut them.

[@mir3877]

18:10 Raiden did his job in letter and spirit, unlike in the movies etc where he relies on weak mortals getting everyone into danger. This is the raiden We voted for and that was the raiden we got. There should be a return policy for useless raidens.

So expensive, so much pain to install and the each time to run the game you had to look for a random word in manual booklet. I still remember the smell of that game box.

The ai in mk2 is so cheap all it does is defensively react to the moves you try and your movements, it won't just attack you like a human player would so over time good players have figured out how to manipulate the ai into behaving expectedly.
