Back in the 90s, Street Fighter (introduced in 1987) dominated the arcade fighting genre, however, in 1992 Mortal Kombat was introduced and a new fighting game rivaled the then favorite-Street Fighter. It was a close second to Street Fighter (in my opinion, SF is still the best), still, it greatly differs from SF in a lot of ways. It was no ordinary fighting game, the realistic characters were beyond its time and its brutality was controversial. The popularity of the game eventually lead to several franchises including 2 movies (which I think is better than the SF movie) and a TV show. Back in the days, my friends and I would spend couple of hours playing this game, enjoying beating each other silly and teasing the loser while laughing at his character die with a Fatality.
To reminisce the good old days, here's a flashgame of Mortal Kombat. Although the characters and moves are limited in this flash adaptation, its still pretty good. Use the arrow keys to move, A to punch, S to block and D to kick. Enjoy!
It was very useful for me. Keep sharing such ideas in the future as well. This was actually what I was looking for, and I am glad to came here! Thanks for sharing the such information with us.
