True story, I need souls to survive. Why, just meeting Geoff for five minutes at the airport last night was enough to get my energy levels topped up, as his emaciated husk of a walking corpse can attest to. It’s also a great line to start a story about how one of the finest fighting games of all time is about to lay the TOASTY on PC.
DSOGaming spotted a Steam Registry update, in which the Mortal Kombat moniker was seen. It looks like all achievements from the console version have also been uppercutted over, although Ed Boon has yet to comment on whether or not the PC will be getting that extra slice of gore.
Released back in 2011, Mortal Kombat is a fighting game that I’m still playing to this day. It’s the perfect cross of old and new school, but with shinier graphics that automatically made it the face puncher of the year.
If you haven’t played it on console yet, you can pick up a Komplete Edition for a decent price these days. And if you’re PC-only with your gaming, then get yourself a controller and prepare to say goodbye to life. Mortal Kombat is going to do a number of fatalities on your social calendar.

XBox controller + Wireless USB dongle/receiver R399 at BT Games and Makro. It’s the best.

I like MK over any fighting game tbh. Now that it looks like it’ll finally come to PC puts a smile on my face 🙂

Better yet, if you already have a xbox you only have to by the receiver for the controller.

Seeing that this is Mortal Kombat, shouldn’t it be coming to the PK & not the PC? Quite appropriate as it’s a fighting game & with a certain meaning of that abbreviation 😀

Sweep distance and further: Hold Lp, b,b,d,f, release….If you’re an MK fan worth his weight in salt you’ll know whose fatality this was and which rendition of the game it was in…

Tekken 2, Hell even 3 and Tekken Tag were great. Still don;t trump SF though. 😉

Agreed, SF4 is the best fighting game ever made and I started back with SF2 and the original Mortal Kombat.

Ok, best MK9 fighter?
I’m a Kung Lao fan, he had some of the best fatalities and of course an ‘Odd-Job’ hat = win.

My go to chaps are Scorpion (though everybody knows his tricks by now, making him easily readable) and Kung Lao.
