Mortal Kombat, in any form, has failed to be made into a properly playable portable game. Mortal Kombat Advance was horribly choppy and sluggish. Mortal Kombat Tournament for the GBA just wasnt the classic fighter we all love. This has all changed...
The ports of Mortal Kombat 1 2 and 3 are PERFECT. I couldn't be happier! This is the first game I bought for my PSP, and in fact is a big reason I even bought the PSP. If your looking for MK 1 - 3 then this is the game for you. I cannot comment on the rest of the games because I don't care about them.
Fatality
GREAT, better than namco, that's for sure

Combined with mortal combat 1-3, raiden 1, paperboy, and other classics, it's surely better than namco's version for the psp. We all know arcade games are almost out of style, but these will never go out of style.
The thing I'm wondering is, WHY IS IT RATED M?!? I understand 3 mortal combat games are on here, but if that's the only reson it's rated m, then that's just plain stupid! Parent's, if you don't allow your kids to play M games, this might be an M game you might allow. Believe me, once you watch your kids play the game, you will also wonder why it's rated that high. (I mean for preteen kids and older.)
In conclusion, GET THIS GAME AT ALL COSTS! $30 for about 20-25 games! That's about a little more than a $1 for each game, and you can play it over and over again (and keep your high score!) A must get game if you like arcade games and you're a psp fan!
I play this PSP game more than any of the others...

I own 15 or so games for my PSP, but I always find myself coming back to this one. If you're sitting in a doctor's waiting room or have only a little time to kill, you can play one of these games. Most of the time I am playing my PSP, I don't have 30 minutes to do a GTA mission and I don't have enough time to play an entire game of NBA or Madden, but I can always knock out a game or two of Paperboy or Mortal Kombat. I played alot of these games growing up and some of them are still my faves. Seems like alot of people don't like this game, but I think it's definitely worth buying.
great game

I JUST GOT TO SAY THAT THIS IS THE BEST COLLECTION OF GAMES IN ONE UMD DISC. MOST OF THE TIME I SPEND PLAYING MORTAL KOMBAT 1 & 2, THEY ARE SO ADDICTING TO ME, MK3 WAS NOT THAT OF A BIG HIT FOR ME. OTHER GAMES I ENJOY ARE RAMPAGE, & GAUNTLET. I PLAY THIS MORE THAN ANY OF MY OTHER GREAT GAMES LIKE CASTLEVANIA, FIFA 08, DAXTER. JUST GET THIS GAME AND YOU WILL GET YOUR MONEYS WORTH, JUST TRUST ME!
Classic's Video Games Are The Best!

I'm glad they final released this for PSP. Overall a pretty decent compellation. Half the games are great...the other half probably could have been left out.
This is worth buying alone for just Mortal Kombat 1,2,3. Some other good ones are Spy Hunter, Defender, Paperboy, 720, Klax, Joust, Marble Madness, Rampage, Gauntlet, Rampart, Championship Sprint, & Arch Rivals.
You can change characters in Gauntlet

Hello All
I really love this compilation, a lot of old favs are here.
The main reason I'm writing is to let people know how to change character in Gauntlet, I couldn't work out how the same as one of the reviewers above but found the solution on a site after much searching.
Basically load the game, before clicking play hit (square) instead for options you can choose the character your credits go to there.
I was gutted when I thought I was stuck playing Warrior, now I'm happy as Larry.
Cheers
Mortal Kombat, that's all

This collection has -- to me anyways -- two things: Defender and Mortal Kombat. Because of the far too long load times, neither of them is really as fun as it used to be on arcades or home-consoles. All three Mortal Kombat games have nearly as long load times as the most recent "Unchained" portable iteration of the series. You can argue that Mortal Kombat I-III are more fun than the new 3D games, but I still think that this is an unneeded decrease in playability and I certainly felt down when I noticed it, after being *so* excited for MK on my PSP.
If you can look over this issue, well, you sure know what kind of goodness is awaiting you with this collection.
