For those of you who weren't around in the early 90's the video game industry was going through a Fighting game craze caused by Street Fighter II.
So Ed Boon and John Tobias make Mortal Kombat. One of the bloodiest Goriest(sp?) games ever. But when it was being ported over to Home Consoles Nintendo had a "Family Friendly policy going on. Which means we won't get Sub-Zero ripping someones Spinal Cord out. But that doesn't mean it's a bad game.
So many people overlook this and say this game is horrible. Also because they say the control sucks. Well, it's a little delayed maybe by half a second but that's it. The controls are always perfect for me. I don't know why people think the control is so horrible. Now, I have a Genesis, and I do love the Gore & Blood of the Arcade version. But I also love the music. On Genesis you may have the blood but the music sucks. I played the Genesis version at a friends and the music gave me a ear soar. Mortal Kombat has 7 characters all
of who are somewhat alike. But they all have different Special moves which make each one a different experience. Mortal Kombat is a really cool game on every console so check it out!
