Mortal Kombat
Mortal Kombat is a series of highly violent fighting video games. They feature graphic violence, and unrealistically large amounts of blood spilling and gore. A particular source of controversy is a feature called "Fatality", where the winner of the combat ruthlessly executes his opponent in a gruesome fashion that varies with the performing character. The controversy was addressed directly in the sequel, which introduce "Friendships." Instead of executing the opponent, the character would juggle, give them ice cream or other similar actions. Blood and gore in the earlier games in the series was done in a deliberately over the top manner, but as the series progressed the violence became more and more realistic.
The original Mortal Kombat for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System removed most of the blood and gore in the game.
The gameplay consists of a fighting match between two characters, who can punch, kick, jump, duck, block and perform special moves depending on the character being used.
