Then Midway goes bankrupt and Warner Bros promptly picks up the studio that produces the series (now known as Netherrealm Studios). Add that to the fact that virtually no one ever actually died in the story despite the ultraviolent nature of the games - a move that virtually guarantees stagnation - and you've got a series that has seen better days. And while other series have made a successful leap to 3-D, MK had "hit and miss" luck there. Eventually, the violence grew cartoonish in its excess, and the gameplay engine was not enough to sustain its popularity once other companies caught on to the idea that violence was nothing to be scared of. The designers, encouraged by their success, racked up the body count in subsequent installments, devising entirely new methods of dismemberment and decapitation. The Moral Guardians went through the roof, but the series was a smash hit anyway. Mortal Kombat was the first game to ditch that pretense, with copious amounts of High-Pressure Blood, screaming, impaling, and Finishing Moves that delighted in how many body parts they could sever. Pre- MK, most designers kept some sort of plausible deniability in their games, claiming that nobody was really dead, or it was only monsters, or some other excuse. Especially when Nintendo practically owned the video game franchise, most games did not include overt, bloody violence. Mortal Kombat is nothing special today in the age of Tekken and Virtua Fighter, but in its heyday it was incredibly risqué.

The series, once a heavy hitter in the video game world, struggled with the inability to transition smoothly to 3-D. What started as a fairly typical Street Fighter II/ Enter the Dragon global tournament ripoff quickly transmogrified into a interdimensional war and the mass genocide of the human race, which still somehow managed to shake out in the form of a series of one-on-one matches. Packed with secrets, Easter Eggs, and hidden characters (and largely predating the Internet), the first few games lent themselves well to an Urban Legend of Zelda or two and it seemed like just about anything was possible. It had style, that passed for maturity at the time, a certain something that more family-friendly games couldn't replicate. In its prime, for about three games, Mortal Kombat was the very essence of cool. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.Ī long running series of fighting games, started and developed over a long time by Midway Games, which has crept out into other media, defined almost solely by its uber-violence and the odd spelling of its name. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples.Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted.Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so.
