We're at that time of the year when, every so often, you just want to go ahead and play a true classic - and even if there's nothing particularly festive about Mortal Kombat, it sure as hell is a classic. Some might say that it's just a schlocky arcade fighting game that hasn't aged well, was never any good in the first place and people only liked it for the blood, guts and fatalities...I disagree. And because you couldn't possibly have a Mortal Kombat video without covering at least some of the ancillary stuff surrounding it, this video also features a little look at how Mortal Kombat took over in the home as well, with what was unarguably the best thing Acclaim ever did - their "Mortal Monday" ad campaign for the game's console ports, one of the most memorable and influential ads ever made for a videogame. Enjoy!
SUPPLEMENTAL:
Youtubers are in luck, for there is an abundance of archive material for Mortal Kombat available on here uploaded by fansites and enthusiasts - without some of that, this video might not have been possible. Check out the following:
