Remember The Game? #172 - Mortal Kombat II


Listen Later

I say this every time we cover a fighting game, but this genre intimidates the hell out of me. I respect people that play these games at a high level so much, but even at their easiest difficulties, they're out of my league. Mortal Kombat II is a rare exception. I still suck at it, but I owned it growing up, and I played it quite a bit. I might even go as far as to say this is the game that convinced me I suck at fighting games.  Fortunately, I don't have to be good at a game to talk about it. And my buddy Mike The Ref makes his triumphant return to the podcast this week to carry me through another conversation about fighting games. He killed it on our Killer Instinct episode (no pun intended), and he brought the heat again this time around.  I still don't understand how people knew how to do fatalities, either. And before we talk Johnny Cage and guts, it's another edition of the 'Remember The Game Infamous Intro'!  This week, I give some game advice to a new PlayStation 5 owner. Someone asks if I hate the sound of my own voice when I hear it (yes, very much). And is it a pro, or a con, when games come with all the playable characters/levels unlocked day one? PLUS, we have another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', featuring some of the..."lesser known" fighting classics - TMNT: Tournament Fighters, Clayfighter, and Power Stone. Are you on social media? Of course you are. So follow us!  Twitter: @MemberTheGameInstagram: @MemberTheGameFacebook.com/MemberTheGameTwitch.tv/MemberTheGame And Mike is raising money for Jack.org, who works to reduce youth suicide in Canada. It's a great cause, show him some love! Donation link: https://tiltify.com/@miketheref/be-part-of-the-solutionMerch Link: miketheref.live/merch And find the rest of Mike's work here: Personal Twitter: @miketherefTwitch Channel: miketheref.live or twitch.tv/miketheref Wrestling YouTube: youtube.com/c/Backbreakermedia Gaming Twitter: @BackbreakerGameGaming YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1IHuDfLwrqF_GCt2nkLzVQ
