Analysis

  • This GameFAQ is great for learning the moves.

  • I'm probably just bad at this game, but so far the AI seems incredibly boring to play against. It seems to lack a degree of randomness, and most of the time just proceeds according to a very simple algorithm.

  • My current thoughts are that single player MK2 is just bad. I'm sure this is a great multiplayer game, but the way the AI plays is extremely boring. I'm moving on to MK3 for now.

  • I hear this is the best home port of MK2. Even if I have to go into the menu every time I play it and change to 6-button controller.

  • 2023-10-08
  • Completed the game with Reptile on Very Easy difficulty (MiSTer).

    On this difficulty, the AI is very boring, but on higher difficulties, I'm getting destroyed.

  • Completed the game with Jax on Very Easy difficulty (MiSTer).
  • Completed the game with Jax on Very Easy difficulty (MiSTer).

    I was annoyed with my performance and replayed the Tower with Jax.
