can't ****ing wait. i'm having withdrawls.
I will always love the old games. They have a special place in my heart <3.
But MK9 is my favorite game minus the online play.
call me a graphics whore
but i can't go back to playing the old mk games
too ugly
Dude, MK9 and MK3 have the same characters except that MK9 doesnt have Cyber Smoke but has Kenshi, Skarlet, Kratos and Cyber Sub-Zero, what "character choice variation" do you talk about? MK9 has more chars than UMK3.

MK2 and KILLER INSTINCT best arcade games of all time.
I have zero interest in this. I enjoyed the MK games when they were new, but when I think back about it, that was mainly due to the fact that the shock factor was still relevant at the time. If you strip away the blood and gore, the old MK games really aren't very good as fighting games. The just don't hold up the same as something like Street Fighter II and III...which actually had gameplay.
I see what you mean with MK1, but MKII and UMK3 had great gameplay.
MKII was a lot like chess IMO.
And UMK3 has a very sexy combo system.
MK1 doesn't really hold up to be honest. Not to (keep) sounding like the Old Man of the Forum here, but back in 1992 something like MK1 was just mind blowing. The only frame of reference anyone had for fighting games was SFII which was kind of cartoony, and here comes this game with digitized graphics of real people, and blood, and HOLY CRAP DID HE JUST RIP THAT GUY'S SPINE OFF! Playing MK1 now is like watching a horror movie from the 1950s, it's not going to have the same effect since so many more shocking things have come along since.
