    There’s nothing quite like yelling out a game’s title and then grooving to some sweet techno tunes. There’s also nothing quite like ripping someone’s spine out to finish off a martial arts bout. These are both things you can do in Mortal Kombat, which contribute to its legendary legacy. We’ve been telling our opponents to “GET OVER HERE” for some 30-odd years now, and it hasn’t even come close to getting old. And with a truly NEW Mortal Kombat just around the corner, it’s always fun to take a trip down memory lane.

    I agree with you that variations is a plus, annoys me when ppl complain that they don’t get the entire move list, but think of it as your getting extra moves, so every mirror match doesn’t play the same and have different strategies.

    This was a great video! I was hoping for some minor edits to bring the MK11 info up to date on some segments like the funny af "What does your MK11 main say about you" segment as well as some factual and trivia bits... but overall this was great.

    Now this is my kinda 4am in bed "last video" to watch before sleep 😅 for real though, MK holds a special place in my heart I had it in 1993 megadrv and played it my first time a few years later on the ps1. Sindel was my favourite followed by nightwolf & Mr "blblblblblblbllrr" bycle kick 😂 the NK lore is amazing 👏 I wish we got a game seeing Edenia I'm it's prime, think we're gonna get a stage in MK1 this year but I honestly love this game history & lore. Praying MK2 movie is better than the first. ❤
