Quotes


MOOOOOOOOORTAL KOMBAT!

- Syd Lexia



Mortal Kombat was better than Street Fighter. This not only describes the category of video games, but also film adaptations of video games. However, Mortal Kombat II: Annihilation, and the Street Fighter movie are both among the worst movies of all time.

Digitized Sprites are an acquired taste. I prefer the look and feel of hand drawn characters in a one on one fighting game. Mortal Kombat was a good game in the arcades. I remember when people would line up to play that one kid, you know... the one who knew all the moves for one character and just kept playing for hours on end with the two quarters he got back after breaking a dollar at the snack bar on a can of soda. Fuck you greeneyedzeke, I know you were that guy. Maybe not to me, but to others. You bastard.

Yes, when I used to go to arcades machines only took 1 quarter and a Coke was 50 cents.
