Mortal Kombat!

[oddler]

Mortal Kombat was the game I played between any other game when I was in middle school. My dad, my brother, and I played so much that we eventually got insanely good. I couldn't dream of having reaction skills like that again unless I "trained" for a good month.

We used to pick the mode in MK3 where you could pick a set of four (not sure of the actual number) characters in a row and fight. However, we were so crazy obsessed that we could do a random choice tournament and, no matter who the four characters were that the computer selected, we would know most of their moves, most of their fatalities, animalities, and a bunch of those ludicrous 7+ hit combos.

I love thinking about the good old days when I had such talent. I really suck at games lately compared to what I used to be able to do.

Oh, and favorite characters:
MK2 - Mileena, Reptile, and Baraka
MK3 - Nightwolf, Cyrax, and Sindel
