Best announcer ever.... I would pay a big chunk of money to have him narrate MK games again... Such a legend and nice guy all around... Also cool to see Ed and Dan. Love you guys
I would love to have a immitator for the new Mortal Kombat. I know Steve Ritchie had tinnitus and I think he's deaf now, and that's so sad. But I miss his voice so much
@@aakarmamtora3470 MK9 and X are genuinely solid fighting games that I still play to this day. But there's an element to them that's lost that the arcade MKs had. Maybe because it went from a passion project from a bunch of pinball guys to being a juggernaut of entertainment. Maybe it's because Tobias isn't involved. Who's to say.

Very cool! Very neat to see how the sounds were made. So much work went into that game and it came out very well! Mortal Kombat 3's soundtrack has to be my favorite!
Siempre quise saber quién estaba detrás de la voz de presentación de cada round, fatality, animality, friendships, babality y brutality. Ahora lo sé, gracias 😃
As a solo dev, I can personally say that recording voice lines are my favorite part about making a game. It's fun and easy to do with time and effort, and it's really inspirational once you hear it in the project, even for just a few lines.
From the file names in the source code we can see: Ed Boon - Jax, Kano, and Shang Tsung Peg Burr - Sindel, and Sonya Dan Forden - Nightwolf Jon Hey - Kung Lao, and Sub-Zero Ann Mazza - Sheeva Vince Pontarelli - Kabal, and Stryker We also know Steve Ritchie does Shao Kahn, but Liu Kang and Cyrax/Sektor/Smoke are uncredited (but are probably Ed Boon and Dan Forden, respectively).
Sub-Zero’s voice should be the very same as Nightwolf(Dan Forden)! Jon Hey(that matches perfect with Johnny Cage in MKT) doesnt match with him! BTW! Ed Boon’s voice just doesnt match with Shang Tsung, but fits perfectly with Jax, mainly! And… who did MK2 male voice?
@@apealeal3973 oh, I'm already on Fightcade, but now I play only coop games. I still play MK3 offline a lot, you may want to check out my last gameplay on my channel. 😀
so that guy was the voice behing, very good sounded better than what they have today, no wonder people were realy focused in the old time and did a great job
Back when Mortal Kombat soundtrack was 🔥🔥🔥 MK11 and MK1(2023) soundtrack are with all respect lackluster in my opinion, they don't have that MK feel anymore..
Old school hardware analog sounds way ahead of the cheap digital garbage they putting out these days. No wonder MK1-3 had a true distinctive sound modern cant touch
The sound hardware between the first three MK games are different; MK1 used the Yamaha YM2151-based FM sound board that been used since the System 11 era (starting with 1986’s Road Kings), but upgraded the speech chip to the OKI ADPCM, which sounds a lot better than the Harris CVSD chip used in Williams’s pinball games. MK2 and MK3, meanwhile, used the DCS Sound System, which is like playing four MP3s simultaneously. MK2 and Indiana Jones: The Pinball Adventure were the first games to use DCS.

I never thought I would see Steve Ritchie recording the Shao Kahn voice. Best announcer voice in history, period.
And he doesn't even remember anything about it, smh....
Are you forgetting about Chris Sutherland?
@@magicalflare9133for real?
Dunno why they did not used his voice anymore after UMK Trilogy !? The current voice sounds so computerly generated and shit!
I’ve always loved MK3’s sound. So crisp.
You mean KRISPY!
What’s funny is I like MK1’s low-res echoey sounds, reminds me of an old kungfu flick
@@mikeg2491 oh yeah, a lot of limitations from the first game really adds up to the atmosphere

He sadly passed away though. Jamison Price does a pretty decent job so not too bad on a Successor.

I miss the arcade MKs. They had so much heart and soul put into them.
but with cheap ass ai that going to cheat
@@GrumpyCat97yep.
Current ones do too. But you don't see it because of nostalgia of older games. You will feel the same about today's games 20 years down the line

Dude I really want to see more of this! I love stuff like this!
Right there with ya man
Steve Richie is a legend
Steve Ritchie rocks!
That's why they call him the king. Being the voice of the emperor of Outworld and Master of pinball machines
@@FizzyArtCola Master… of Pinball machines!! Steve is the HOSS!!
@@SlickRick4EVER the HOSS
The original and greatest Shao Kahn
Maybe not the best game of the saga....But easily one of the greatest OSTs with killer SFXs!, outstanding job by Dan Forden
Steve Ritchie is the man!
this is what need mk is missing.
amazing soundtracks with a lot of energy and synergy.
This should come as announcer voice in mk1
Umk3 is mine, and many other's in the fgc's favorite
Need a documentary on just the music
Fr!!! Back when the music had a personality of its own!!
The voice is one of the most iconic and nostalgic parts about Mortal Kombat.
So many other games had annoying or cliche announcing.
THE ONLY VOICE of the Emperor of Outworld!!
0:58 Ed Boon getting pissed off with Steve Ritchie for asking to say Kano again.
Lol what a dickish moment of him

Mortal Kombat 3 have legendary vibe.
God bless dan forden
Never thought I’d ever get to see this kind of footage! Thanks for uploading!
I hope to see more.
this guy is a genius
professional and a legend
I loved the sounds of mk3 and the wildness of mk4 😂
Mk4 was wild lol
MK3 and MK4 were very similar. It was like a 3D version of MK3 haha
I mean, even after I’ve heard these sound effects dozens of times, it still makes me laugh hysterically 😂
Soooo cooool!!!!!! Been a looooong time since I’ve played MK3
Epica voz Steve Ritchie 👏🏿👍🏿🍻
Pinball community thanks you for releasing this.
Rollergames!
thank you for making our lives happy
There is no one like stive retchi voice very rare thank u thank u for upload this video bro
This is legendary.

So the Jax/Kano/Shang Tsung voice it's Ed Boon.
It's the same as Sub Zero and Kung Lao, only pitched up
From the file names in the source code we can see:
Ed Boon - Jax, Kano, and Shang Tsung
Peg Burr - Sindel, and Sonya
Dan Forden - Nightwolf
Jon Hey - Kung Lao, and Sub-Zero
Ann Mazza - Sheeva
Vince Pontarelli - Kabal, and Stryker
We also know Steve Ritchie does Shao Kahn, but Liu Kang and Cyrax/Sektor/Smoke are uncredited (but are probably Ed Boon and Dan Forden, respectively).
Sub-Zero’s voice should be the very same as Nightwolf(Dan Forden)! Jon Hey(that matches perfect with Johnny Cage in MKT) doesnt match with him!
BTW! Ed Boon’s voice just doesnt match with Shang Tsung, but fits perfectly with Jax, mainly!
And… who did MK2 male voice?
This men is a legend!!!!!
Video game community was so much better back then. Everything had heart, soul, and creativity
Ed's FINISH HIM has mk1 written all over it
Little did they know that they were making history
Really cool!
Dan Forden is a legend.
TOASTY!
@@daneparsons725th-cam.com/users/shortsNHs1dpVQagc?si=e_cdU9QVNAVL8JJa
Mr. Ed Boon did the original noises and sounds for the characters??? WTF 😮
Dan Forden is the GOAT 🗿
This video is "superb,excellent,outstanding" 🙋
There was a time all I could think in my life was MK3. The best MK game ever, IMO.
Come back and play online on fightcade
@@apealeal3973 oh, I'm already on Fightcade, but now I play only coop games. I still play MK3 offline a lot, you may want to check out my last gameplay on my channel. 😀
so that guy was the voice behing, very good sounded better than what they have today, no wonder people were realy focused in the old time and did a great job
Toasty Guy !! So good to see how they made the game/music.
I used to love him saying ‘outstanding’… the only reason I used to choose the easiest tower was just to hear that!
That last clip with Steve Ritchie is LEGENDARY.
Isso é história do vídeo game
Isso é uma raridade
bro what a piece OF Timeless Gold Here
This is real era of gaming not like today's trash releases
Dan forden lo mas grande de los ost ❤
UMK3 is my favourite MK ever.
Steve Ritchie is a legend 😎
Anymore of the voice actors? Really cool!
Look at Dan Forden
Never knew he did all those sounds
That soul chamber song slap so hard. Omg 😊
I WANT MORE OF THIS STUFF!!!!
Best announcer voice ever
Music so good, downloaded some last year 2022 and good to see an early announcer voice😅
This is so Lit mk2 one of the best soundtracks for me
Am not going to lie this is an Epic soundtrack
omg what gem, please keep them koming
Legends❤
Ritchie, Boon, and Forden all worked together on the 1989 pinball game, Black Knight 2000.
OMG, I finally saw "Shao Khan" since I first time played MK in 1995... That voice, pressing F million times.
Steve Riche will always be the best announce and best Shao Kahn Voice
One of the best season
A Steve Ritchie announcer voice for MK1 would be so dope. I can just hear it.
Blu Ray should be with me tomorrow 😊
Beautiful.
Those earlier MK soundtracks are so epic.
Anyone know if there's more behind the scene MK audio vids?
Steve Ritchie is the best voice 2023 . Please back
0:21 that sounds like the guy from the Look at this Dude vine
Back when Mortal Kombat soundtrack was 🔥🔥🔥 MK11 and MK1(2023) soundtrack are with all respect lackluster in my opinion, they don't have that MK feel anymore..
I wonder if back then these guys relize just how fucking huge this franchise would become god im happy they never gave up
Legendary 🔥🥋
Amazing job
that announcer was the best.
Steve Ritchie was full-on Wolfman Jack back in the day!
Feel the power of TOASTY!
Dan Forden 🐐
The best MK announcer ever is not even close .
The Shao kahn from MK11 and Mk1 is good too, but Ritchie is better
I love this.
Dude look at all them cords
i love that soul chamber early soundtrack!
Steve Ritchie as Shao Kahn is the only voice of MK that matters.
You're welcome world from Chicago
"poor ed"
Dan "toasty" Forden
Best game in this world
I might be late but is that the toasty guy?
Yep!
@@insertcoindoc Nice!
I think the last “Kano” he said was used in the gm
Так делались настоящие игры💪
Old school hardware analog sounds way ahead of the cheap digital garbage they putting out these days. No wonder MK1-3 had a true distinctive sound modern cant touch
also helps that dan forden was a expert sound engineer and musician. so he knew what to do and did it very well.
The sound hardware between the first three MK games are different; MK1 used the Yamaha YM2151-based FM sound board that been used since the System 11 era (starting with 1986’s Road Kings), but upgraded the speech chip to the OKI ADPCM, which sounds a lot better than the Harris CVSD chip used in Williams’s pinball games.

Sounds like me on the toilet with explosive diarrhea.
