What are those two grown men doing in that picture? Why it appears as if they're swinging around in rainbow tights. Well good luck to Southpeak in keeping up that quality of entertainment. #tnawrestling
While a different game altogether, Midway's "The Grid" felt like it was planned to be the successor to Smash TV, even though it was a weird combo of fighter and FPS deathmatch game. #smashtv
How can this be seminal? Robotron 2084 + Robocop, those were seminal. Learn 2 word properlike. Unless you mean full of semen, then that's okay. #smashtv
@RicoTheSaboteur: Indeed but I didn't really think The Running Man was seminal, nor really anything above slightly average. So I went with "I'll buy that for a dollar" - Robocop. #smashtv
I'm so sick and tired of people bashing the franchise. They clearly have no idea what the hell they are talking about.
Play Mortal Kombat Shoalin Monks, play deception, play deadly alliance and just quit bashing the franchise that made violence in video games what it is today.
Bow down to the innovators of video game violence.
The problem here is simple...the first few mortal kombat games were big because of their shock value and jump to realistic graphics.
Flash forward to 2009, and excess gore and realistic models no longer have the same attention holding powers they did in 1998. Blood in games is old news and even fatalities have lost the luster they once had. What they need to do is introduce fundamental changes in the game series.
They need to up the technical aspect of combat, introduce some new interesting characters, and perhaps go with a fresh artistic design. I think there were great ideas like introducing weapons and kreate a kombatant, but I still thing some fundamental changes to the series need to take place.

I find it funny that most of the hardcore gamers are dismissing Mortal Kombat, yet MK VS. DC sold a million copies and was decently recieved by the critics.
Some people are never satisfied.
Take MK vs DC, take out the DC characters and replace them with a shitload more MK characters. Add lots of blood, call it Mortal Kombat: Resurrection or something. Release it. Great game.

...1998?
Try 1992 or 1993. MK was old news by '98.
