Mortal Kombat can be defined as the ogrish fighting games at the time it was released. You not know what is ogrish? Google! : D!

In it, we choose an ordinary between 7 warriors to fight to the death in arenas of Outworld. Many would say at the time: "ah, the Street Fighter is like that and has more faces." Yes, but in Street Fighter  you can not tear opponent's head with your spine, can you?

Yeah, MK inaugurated a new  fighting game style, where we give the famous FATALITIES on the enemies when the fight ends. Or not, if the player not knows to make the damned. Each fighter, has in his list of cuts, one special to be given to hear the famous phrase "FINISH HIM / HER": the coup usually  cut into pieces, beheads, scorch or kill the enemy ^ ^!


The characters range from noble maidens as Sonya to playboys like Johnny Cage and ninjas such as Scorpion and Sub-Zero. Each of them eventually becoming single, which came to spread fame  even more of violent on the game.

Released numerous versions for different systems, but the most famous were in the Mega Drive and SNES, with subtle graphical differences between the two (the sound on the SNES is very good, while in Mega ... well ....).

It is a violent game? Yes, of course,  but for today's standards, is more for a walk in the park.

Still, MK is still a great franchise, moreover, he is just another franchise that has not quite hit the hand after the third game.

Final Score: 6.0
