Mortal Kombat

Mortal Kombat is one of the biggest video game series to ever come around.

Also Mortal Kombat is one of the most controversial video games for it feature of finishing moves known as Fatalities.

The game feature seven characters to fight with. Sub-Zero Liu Kang, Raiden, Kano, Scorpion, Johnny Cage and Sonya Blade. My favorite Mortal Kombat characters are Sonya Blade and Sub-Zero

The game's main antagonist is Shang Tsung. The game feature a well crafted story line and help created some of the best characters of any video game. Each one has their own It factor that make them fan favorites.

The Graphics of the game were using live action actors to help create the moment of the characters and the results make you wonder how they did.

The controls depends on what system you are playing it on will give you a run for your money as this game needs you to be at your best because it will bring you down hard.

It took a few times to get use to the way the game play works but the game play is good enough to share with friends because fighting games are about having someone extra to play against however the game isn't easy at all you have to be ready for whatever the game has in store it is not a easy game at all.

Mortal Kombat remains a fan favorite even today so do yourself a favor and play this game.

I give Mortal Kombat an 7 out of 10

That really sucks ass. There was one time when I almost beat all three endurance levels and therefore get to fight Goro (something I've never done before in my life). By the time I got up to that level, it was 1 in the morning and my my thumbs were swollen from playing for so long. Needless to say, I was completely exhausted. But unfortunately, for some godforesaken reason, you can't pause the game. So I had to do the unthinkable and turn it off; terminating my chances of fighting Goro and now I have to try all over again.

Luckely in MK2, it's pretty much the same as the original except (you guessed it) you can finally pause the game and relax.

A Saturday morning staple in any early-90s household. This was my introduction to fighting games and I've never forgotten it. One of my favorites to this day! So innovative; I loved the button combos and the gore!

Mortal Kombat and its sequels are some of the greatest games ever created! It has a good story, incredible action, great music, awesome characters, very fun, really interesting looking stages, and more! Below is a brief In-depth review of the game called Mortal Kombat!

Story: Many fighters around the world enter this deadly tournament. Since now the contest is in Shang Tsung's hands it will become much more difficult for the Kombatants to win!

The Kombatants!

Liu Kang - This Chinese warrior is a fearless fighter who is bent on getting revenge!

Johnny Cage - An action movie star, Cage enters Mortal Kombat!

Sonya Blade - A beautiful Texan who is a Lt. in the United States Army. The skilled fighter enters the tournament but why? Is it because a certain red eyed individual is Kompeteing?

Lord Rayden - Is it true Lord Rayden is the God of thunder?

Shang Tsung - This old shapeshifting fighter is one of the greatest fighters ever in the history of the world! He has the power to take a living being's soul!

Kano - A member of the Black Dragon Organization, Kano fights with no fear in the tournament!

Scorpion - A poor soul, when he was a live his wife and child were murdered by Sub Zero and the Lin Kuei clan of ninjas. Scorpion with his trusty spear is seeking revenge on the cold one.

Sub Zero - The murderer of Scorpion's family is in the tournament. Now it will be a big showdown like never seen before!

Reptile - Not much is known about this fighter except he wears the same exact ninja uniforms as Scorpion and Sub Zero but only green and can mimic other fighters maneuvers! Though it is thought that he is the last of an ancient reptilian humanoid specie, he protects Shang Tsung from enemies.

Goro - A huge half-human dragon from Kuatan, the 4th Astrial Plane of Shokan in the Realm of Outworld. This giant has been undefeated for half of a millennium. He defeated Liu Kang's ancestor the Shaolin Monk Kung Lao. Now the tournament begins!

Game Play: The game play is very good. The basic movies are easy to perform but the fatalities are very hard to do but with the help of cheats it can be much easier.

Graphics: The graphics are wonderful. Most of the game is digitalized!

Difficulty: The game can be very easy or it can be very hard depending on what you set the difficulty level.

Music: The music is great! Just awesome catchy tunes through out the game! In My opinion its some of the best music ever in a video game!

"Mortal Kombat"("MK") and "Street Fighter"("SF") were the two biggest games on the arena of fighting-games back in the early 1990`s. Most people preferred the SF-series, but I always preferred MK because of the graphics, gameplay and not to mention the extreme violence. The first MK remains playable today and a classic, but it has been bettered by superb sequels.
