The Xbox version was supposed to be flawed in some way too, but I honestly can’t remember what that was supposed to have been.

The PS2 supposedly had trouble with, I believe, Hard Drivin’, and the Gamecube had sound problems or something. And if you’re just thinking about getting this now, then you didn’t have to go through the debacle of having the original Mortal Kombat removed from the package and thrown onto the more cost-prohibitive MK: Deception.So I checked out message boards and waited for the game, and once it came out and I chatted with others, I noticed a disturbing trend: no one console had a release of this collection that was entirely flawless. That’s why this was an exciting release- it promised arcade accurate versions of this game as well as a bunch of other good ones. I always have, and though the SNES version was great in 1994, no console has ever had an accurate version of it. But while most of the games run great, there are some slight issues here and there that make some of these games not quite arcade-perfect.THE LONG: I love Mortal Kombat II. THE SHORT: The ridiculously cheap price is worth spending on some of these games on their own, let alone in a double digit package.

But I think I’ll be spending more time with this one.Favorite games: Mortal Kombat 2 & 3 (now if only I could remember how to do all those fatalities…) NARC (best 2-player co-op action game ever) Wizard of Wor (for the funky early-80’s speech synthesis) Total Carnage (truth in advertising…this game could cause a freakin’ panic attack) Timber (I admit, I wasn’t familiar with this one, but it’s really charming and fun).I only hope other game companies will realize there is still a market out there for retro coin-op games (Nintendo, are you listening?) and give us more TREASURES, please! Sure, the previous disc arguably has more true “classic” titles. And that’s why I find myself rating Volume 2 higher than the first. Which makes this disc not only a fun-filled blast of nostalgia, but ensures re-playability for quite some time. This is a good thing, because it will likely take you awhile to master them. Anyway, these later games are typically more complex and HARDER than the games on the first collection. There are a few exception to this, such as Wizard of Wor and Timber. So I was positively delighted to learn of this incredible new collection.Arcade Treasures 2 is a true sequel, in a sense, in that most of the games are from the late 80’s and early 90’s. Hey, I still play the first Arcade Treasures all the time.
