Mortal Kombat: Legacy Episode 4 is all about Kitana and Mileena’s background. And it’s a yawner.

Mortal Kombat Review X-Ray

Hard-hitting, bloody, and chock full of features and extras, Mortal Kombat is easily one of the best fighters of the year, despite some engine issues.

A new Mortal Kombat hit store shelves in 2011, dragging the franchise bicycle-kicking and siren-screaming back into relevance. It looks good! Really good. But in the multimedia powerhouse’s ’90s heyday, you couldn’t swing a dead kombatant around without hitting some goofy tie-in or spin-off. Comics, cartoons, movies, direct-to-video prequels, sequels, side stories, action figures, pogs (and slammers), and a novel … that I actually read. I couldn’t tell you what’s it about, except it starred Kung Lao for some reason and did a pretty good job with Scorpion’s back story. For a kid getting into reading that was some scary, heavy stuff!

Mortal Kombat (aka Mortal Kombat 9/Mortal Kombat 2011) is finally here after months of bone-shattering, blood-letting teasers and previews. The game’s arrival, naturally, has re-opened fan discussions regarding the greatest Kombatants in the series’ history. We all have our favorites, but these are the best Mortal Kombat characters of all time according to yours truly.

PAX East 2011: Mortal Kombat

Note to video game journalists who think they have enough hours in the dojo to wax any challenger: You will lose to a developer and lose with much embarrassment. After selecting Reptile, my de facto Mortal Kombat character, I began exchanging blows with a dev that clocked over a decade’s worth of MK fighting expereince. The result wasn’t pretty, but revealed some valuable information.
