Mortal Throwback



Mortal Kombat Legacy

In the 90s there were only two Fighting Games that dominated the Arcades, Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat. Both have seen countless film and television adaptations and pretty much all of them have been horrendous to say the least. Some of the Better adaptations have come from online submissions from Fans like Street Fighter the Later Years, Street Fighter Legacy and finally for Mortal Kombat was given a great one through Machinima with Mortal Kombat Legacy.

Originally this started as a video pitch to Warner Bros movie studios to reboot the Mortal Kombat franchise in a more gritty realistic tone. Warner Bros wasn't so hot on the idea but did advocate the job to Machinima. Thanks to the immense popularity the series has received online there is talks of a Second Season already in the works which will introduce series favourite Lui Chang and even talks of a DVD and Blu-Ray release.

I honestly don't really need to go on about the awesomeness of this series, just check it out for yourself. I'm sure you'll be won over from the trailer alone if you've ever played and loved a Mortal Kombat game.
