Best character select theme in MK history. I don’t care what other people think.

This to me, the best mk ever and had the best music in the series

Literally gives me goosebumps, love the sinister and eerie approach they had with MK back then.

Mortal kombat trilogy is known for it's darkest, ominous soundtracks. All the mortal kombat characters are here and you know shit's about to go down

I miss the 90’s 😩 MK For Life !

this game needs a hd version :)

By far the best character select screen -song ever. EPIC by its simplicity and effectiveness. It was a wise thing to slow it down after MK 3.

What a badass theme.

a very dark theme

The Kano portrait was next to the Noob Saibot portrait in the beta version of the greatest hits version of the PS1 version of this game.

BEST CHARACTER SELECT THEME EVER

this theme i remember creeped tha fak outta me back in 1996 ..so scary and dark! mk trilogy was and is still the best and had the best music.

Dan forden is a true master when it comes to mk trilogy music

The most evil character select theme ever.

If this game ever gets rereleased on ps4 or xbox one, with all the characters playable from the start, no dlc, no load times at all, and all bugs fixed, I’ll be the first one to purchase it. This game is too badass

The select music beat is untouchable! PERIOD.

This theme used to scare me a lot when i was a kid. I imagined that all characters were staring at me

That was the best roster for sure. It's even proven after years. wirh using almost identical character selection in mk9 that basically resurrected franchise

I still have the disk for trilogy and the case, i couldn't let this classic go.

This music is burned into my brain... When we were 12 and 10, my brother and I could play MK Trilogy with our hands tied behind our back, we literally broke the cartridge from playing it too much! We're 32 and 30 now, still play Mortal Kombat and we introduced our cousins to the games.

I remember how badly i wanted this game when i saw the bosses were finally playable.

The 2D definitive 1996 MK gameplay. Gloomy music that fits perfect in this game.

This was the best installment of mortal kombat ever

I remember when I first heard this theme after playing UMK3 so much and I was so marked out to how much slower and different it sounds from UMK3.

This song is so MIGHTY!!!! It also makes you feel the chills.

This is tune is forever in my mind! Reminds me of waiting on my big brother to select a character when he went to the bathroom or getting some snacks out of the kitchen while im just sitting there and nodding my head to this beat.

This, Deadly Alliance and Deception had the best character selection music. ❤️

My youngest daughter drawing picture of select MK Trilogy. last year in 2013.

when I was a kid i used to be scared of the character select screen because it just showed their faces staring at you with no text and creepy music playing in the background with no context

The dark melody the feeling u got when u played this game was different....we was going to war in the 90s for real with this game!!!!

When you had a older brother who was good as shit on this game 😀

That is the best song in the game I listen to it with in 1 hour and it is so catchy and best music I wish they released the game in PS4

Best MK game ever and has the original rosters with the best character selection theme

6 years old when this came out, now I'm 30 and playing MK 11. 🤙

MK 3/trilogy songs were epic

This was the last Mortal Kombat game I bought brand new. Then I got burned out on the series and only remained a moderate, distant fan.

Instrumental lowkey a banger LOL watch one of these rappers one day put a baseline and a nice clap on this instrumental and turn it into a song 😂😂

This is even better than MK(2011)

oh my god feeling so old now .. thank god i still have this games

Back in my childhood when i play this game for the first time in arcade for some reason Sheeva and Sindel scared the shit out of me

Best MK with best gameplay and best music of all MK's!

House rules for me and my friends nobody is able to pick the bottom row since they are the BS spam characters lol

The best select character music ever made. No contest.

Old school players are here 🔥🔥🔥

When you hear this music you know it was going down in the basement lol good times bro

"Choose Your Destiny"

mk trilogy and mk 3 are the best games hands down

This version scared me as a kid. Especially seeing ermac, rain and noobs little icon lol. With how their eyes look it just scared me

yes

How TF did they come up wit this back then . Shit is dark af and 🔥🔥💯

THIS IS THE SELECT SCREEN I REMEMBER SEEING WITH ALL THE BOSSES ON IT. Everyone keeps telling me different. I could’ve sworn I saw this select screen when I played on N64 as a kid

The music here was glued in my head as a kid. KLASSIC

I liked this version better cause it actually sounds far more dire. Choose your dead man/woman walking

MK Trilogy is a big example of "Everyone is here!" mentality in fighting games, since _EVERYONE_ from MK 1 to UMK3 was in!

Best MK in my opinion

First we got Mortal Kombat Trilogy, later we got Mortal Kombat Armageddon (where I thought, this was the best thing ever!) and next time I hope we get another MK with ALL characters from the first one to MK11 including DLCs. Thus some new fighters from other franchises for example Bayonetta (for Switch exclusive), Fulgore (Xbox and PC exclusive), Doomslayer, T-Type Nemesis and Lobo.

Im glad they sampled all the MK3 songs incorrectly. The resulting lower pitch and tempo really makes the songs sound more ominous and creepy. Gives MK Trilogy a much better vibe than the other classics.

This game was a hidden jewel for Playstation Those whom played mk since the beginning went wild for this one n played for hrs. I know i did.

(Dang)Noob Saibot！ Choose your destiny (champion) Excellent！

La Primera vez que Jugue esto cuando era Morrito fue una Emocion tan increible pues Podias jugar con Los 4 Perrones subjefes y el Jefe ,Goro Motaro Kintaro Y Shao,...Que Buena Infancia Buen Video Broh!!

I like the slow pitch on here than standard 3.

Was anyone else scared of this game as a kid

Lyrics: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I always hated fighting against Jade especially on hard mode. She has the abilty to go through any projectile.

This song is better than actual music

The best mk character select screen music ever

This song and mortal kombat 2 theme in snes are my favorites

This is a bigger and better updated version of Mortal Kombat 3

The one I grew up on.

Mk 2 and mk trilogy are my favorites select characters themes

My favorite edition through the whole classic series.

The Kano portrait was not under the Noob Saibot portrait in the beta version of the greatest hits version of the PS1 version of this game.

Recuerdo de mi infancia

@TheUltimateBastich This is incredible! I must share this information with the others!

Scorpion looks so badass

Best Mortal Kombat made!!! Like the fact they made the game with all playable characters

Superb! 🔥

Hey N64 Trilogy version…. Try EVEN to match this quality of this masterpiece theme 😎😎😎

Damn its been a while all u new generation don't know nun about this

this game was my shit back then, I played only with the ninjas.

You can thank Dan "Toasty" Forden for that. That guy should do movie soundtracks as well...

Even though it was completely broken I still loved it. :)

the best one!! so fitting to the game!!

OUTSTANDING.

My three favorite character select themes. 1. Mortal Kombat Trilogy 2. Street Fighter II 3. Super Smash Bros. (64)

Chameleon appeared as a glitch/glitched in the character selection screen in the CD version of Mortal Kombat Trilogy.

They should use this in MK11

@ieatoldmen it's the other way around: PS1 has Chameleon, N64 has Khameleon

BRUTALITY!!

This game coulda been better if they add MKM Sub-Zero's kharacters like Quan Chi, Shinnok, Fujin & Sareena, including Khameleon from the N64 console, now that would be an awesome game that i would pay & play for it

Noob Saibot and Ermac have the creepiest portraits on this screen o~o

I used to play this with my older cousins as a shorty. I was born in 96 but played this in the early 00s

I never really thought about it , but MK trilogy is basically just Ultimate, Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3

@fieryhand some of my MK1 playthroughs are recorded in dosbox

@fieryhand I was able to get music to work in dos version the other way, I just don't record from that version.

amazing game amazing song

Remember getting superexcited when this came out but couldn't find a pcversion of it, still have the nintendo 64 version but the psx version was better with all the playable bosses in it

@Jaydawg195 masked is Older Sub, unmasked is younger one, there were 2 Sub-Zero's you know
