Saamat: I still have my retail pc copy of MK4, and tend to play once in a few years. I agree that the game is a bit underrated, though the shift to 3D graphics wasn't a flawless victory and the game itself felt a bit unfinished in a few spots: some arenas felt trite and dull as hell. Yet the game had the core, the right mechanics: combos, special moves, fatalities. I honestly missed a few further addtions to the franchise (DA, D, A, SM), but I heard varying opinions about those.

Still I prefer the old 2D era. I just have a thing for MKTrilogy and I'd love to have it running on Win7+... Right now it's literally the only game that makes me keep a very old HDD that has Win XP installed as it's primary OS - it's the last Windows that didn't require much fuss to have MKTrilogy run on it.

I wonder which would be better to let CD Projekt know: FB or e-mail.
MKT has been patched and runs on all versions of WIndows now.

I don't think it depends on WB. Those two games were ported by Eurocom and by GT interactive.. So if WB wants to sell those games again will have to pay them some money.
Had added my vote for both games on community's wishlist. These games must be here, on GOG. I do understand that addition of modern days crap like "hidden object games" here is inevitable surrender to the market's harsh realities, but something like MKT & MK4 release would compensate this decline of storefront's standards, at least for me.

Super awesome to see some love finally given to MK 4. Shocked it was left out of the Arcade collection they released years ago. I just wish MK Gold had gotten a PC release but I still got my Dreamcast.
I don't think Mortal Kombat Trilogy is a possibility and let me explain why ...

MK Trilogy for PC was hard coded with a version of Scitech Display Doctor which would try to auto detect if your video card was VESA 2.0 compliant, and if couldn't, you would have to chose the most compatible card from a small list of manufactures, and cross your fingers. It was so bad and problematic that I wrote a FAQ on GameFaqs regarding how to work around it. This got the attention of another guy who stepped in, wrote a generic VESA 3.0 driver, and reverse-engineered SDD to that it always detected and installed his driver. Because of this, the best way for GOG to support and offer MK Trilogy would be if WB and Netherealm could be persuaded to re-release MK Trilogy as an emulation of the PlayStation version.
Im just happy at this point 4 got a release on GOG!

Or, assuming this isn't the individual you're talking about, they could talk with the person who made this and work something out...

While I'm really thrilled and quite happy to see MK4 finally brought up to modern standards, the entire experience is slightly soured because it's not the updated Gold version.

Should I hope for a Gold port, or should I leave well enough alone?

There was no PC port of MK Gold - that version was only released on Dreamcast, so at this point the chances of seeing it here are equal to zero. The only chance we are getting it is when WB decides to make a new port. Given the fact that MK4 and Gold were relatively poorly received in the first place the chances for that are minimal (not to mention that this port would most likely be released on Steam only anyway).

To add to this, MKT was developed by Avalanche Software and not Midway, which adds anoither layer to the copyrights rabbit hole.
