So I was playing MK2 for PS3 today, when I noticed after letting the continue timer tick down to zero, Goro's Lair appeared on the screen and showed "GAME OVER?" and a roman numeral III....has anyone else seen this??? I'm sure most of you have, but this is a first for me.:)
 
Goro's Lair, really? As much as I've played MK2, I can't say I've ever seen that. I don't suppose you nabbed a screen shot?

yeah, i saw this back in mk 2 arcade times
 
The III? screen was one of those once-every-hundred-or-so-plays things. It was designed to pretty much get the reaction you had, and get the players to pump more quarters in the arcade to prove that it was real and they saw it.
 
Also that video linked to other MK videos and it just reminded me how I could listen to the MK1 soundtrack for DAYS. Especially the "GAME OVER" music. Most epic "your ass is dead, homie" music EVER.
 
I thought I was getting crazy the day I saw this many years ago. Thank you so much for bringing some sanity to my life :')
