  • As a kid, I liked Mortal Kombat more. As an adult, I sat down with Street Fighter IV and really fell in love with that. Now I can't stand to play fighting games like MK.
  • I probably played more Mortal Kombat back in the day but I'd say that Street Fighter was the better series. It seems like MK always relied more on gimmicks than solid controls and gameplay like SF did.
  • Killer instinct is better than both of them imo, but I chose Street fighter
  • The best part of the Mortal Kombat games is the fatalities. As far as fighting mechanics and characters, it's Street Fighter for me

    I think they just got kind of lame after 3, though.  It was never too serious... but it seems after that they were more just a joke way to end a fight.
  • Easy. Street Fighter. They even have a live action series on YouTube, very neat!

  • Street Fighter. Aside fatalities, all the characters felt the same in MK. Also Street Fighter has Cammy
  • Street Fighter. MK always seemed to rely on gimmicks and increasing the brutality of the series to stay relevant.

    ahh sorry.  was street fighter the movie.  guess the joke is spurled.  really wasn't very good anyways.
  • 1991 - 2010 - Street Fighter



    2011 - Current - Mortal Kombat
  • I can vote i love them both equally, although im not too fond of the console ports. Original Street Fighter II and Mortal Kombat 1 
  • As a series, I prefer SF, but as a single game, I probably have more hours in MKII than any other fighting game.
  • Not really my style of games, but I went with Street Fighter. I have some good memories playing Street Fighter on the SNES

    We are close...



    1991-2001 - Street Fighter

    2002 - current - Mortal Kombat



    I was a big fan of Mortal Kombat on the PS3, way better than MK X.

     
  • I never really liked street fighter. All my friends played mortal Kombat and killer instinct or clayfighter 2 growing up. 
  • Street fighter II Turbo Championship Edition Hyper Fighting.

    If you dont get it you are too young  
  • King of Fighter is better than both, but Street Fighter plays SO much better than Mortal Kombat.

    Here you go. The entire series used to be on Youtube.  

     
  • Also, Street Fighter got Raul Julia to ham up to 11 and chew the stage on his final performance, playing M. Bison.

    You just can't top that, sorry MK.

    Dude that's seriously awesome.  I didn't actually think you meant a produced thing.  I'm going to have to Netflix the crap out of that when I get the chance.  I was picturing some jobbers screwing around on youtube

    Raul Julia was a perfect Gomez Addams in my opinion.  Also, I'd like to mention that I do have a soft spot in my heart for the original MK movie...I had taped it off payperview when I was a kid and on the same VHS my parents at some point taped over the second half of the movie with Species.  Damn man that scene with the boobies and Natasha henstridge turning into an alien on top of Michael madson....seriously

     
  • Mortal Kombat will always have the top spot in my heart but my brain knows Street Fighter is better. I think the brighter colors and more diverse characters make it much more appealing and I always remember having more fun playing Street Fighter at arcades. Mortal Kombat seemed more like work (if that makes sense). When you were playing MK, people were playing to destroy each other. You needed to put in work to earn the right to play on even when all you wanted to do was play Cruis'n USA because the arcade version has the chick in a bikini and not a t-shirt.
  • Mortal kombat and mortal kombat x are fantastic. Loaded with modes, a fun story, unlockables, challenge towers.



    Street fighter 5 was a no frills mess. Huge step down for the series.
  • I like the MK series more, but Street Fighter is probably a better overall series in terms of mechanics.
  • I like both for various reasons. I think Street Fighter was better early on, but then when UMK3 and MK Trilogy came out I played more MK at that point. My bro and I use to kill Randper Kombat with the other code that would turn the 'lights' off and on.



    I was playing Pocket Fighter last night and thought it was a lot a fun. I really like both series.
  • Having a "block" button sucks.
  • As a youngster I loved Mortal Kombat but didn't care for Street Fighter. I was drawn to MK for its violence, the fatalities, and the strange characters. As an adult I love Street Fighter way more. Mortal Kombat is still fun to me, but Street Fighter seems to have so much more depth. Also, no Blanka in Mortal Kombat
