Folks, back in 1993, Midway released a game that caused controversy among thousands of parents. And I wish it were Barney because that dinosaur reminds me of a friendlier Glenn Beck.
In case you're wondering, that game was Mortal Kombat. Ahh, Mortal Kombat. Nothing like ripping out your opponent's head with the spine still intact, or setting your opponent on fire with a skull for a head, or performing a cheap somersault and uppercut.
Cue to 2010. We are 1 week away from E3 hoping to see what new games come out from the rumoed Zelda Wii to Kingdom Hearts: Recoded. But Warner Bros games, who bought out many Midway licenses, decided to do something so reckless, it may have gotten the attention of the same parents who got pissed off over Mortal Kombat.
That's right. Mortal Kombat has been reannounced and it's gonna be a new title.
Confirmed characters include the following
The Large Ham Johnny Cage
The Elder God of Thunder Raiden
The Lin Kuei Assassin Sub-Zero
The former Shaolin Monk Kung Lao
The evil sister Mileena
The lizard bodyguard Reptile
The robotic assassin Sektor
The Native American shaman Nightwolf
And the Emperor of Outland himself: Shao Kahn
And now I conclude with the trailer to Mortal Kombat. Note: This game is not appropriate for those under 18. If you are under 18, I recommend you not see the trailer
