The Biggest Controversies In Mortal Kombat History

But it hasn’t always been sunshine and rainbows for the Mortal Kombat franchise. From the moment the first Mortal Kombat hit arcade floors in 1992, the brand has been closely linked with controversy after controversy. From being one of the core reasons behind the creation of the ESRB rating system to being accused of racism and sexism to even causing PTSD in some developers, Mortal Kombat’s history of controversies is long and bizarre....

The Birth Of A Now Nato

Only a few months ago, NATO leaders despaired of finding a worthwhile new task for the alliance. “If we can keep NATO going for a year, it will be a miracle,” said one top U.S. official last spring. The deal struck last week will keep NATO going. No longer designed to repel a Warsaw Pact invasion, it envisions rapid-deployment forces to deal with a multitude of new and unpredietable risks....

The Bitter End

There is nothing in life like the closing days of a campaign, especially a losing one. They are days you relive for the rest of your life. Winners move on to face the next challenge. Losers are left second guessing, wondering what they might have done differently. One day, you have 100 reporters flying around with you, cameras recording each arrival and departure. The next day, they’re all gone, moving on, obituaries written....

The Blackout Club Review

It’s a shame, too, because The Blackout Club actually starts off fairly strong. The character creation tools are barebones and characters will look ugly pretty much no matter what, but it’s serviceable. Players are able to skip the tutorial if they desire and get right into the actual game, which is a nice touch as many co-op games like to force players to play alone for a chunk of time before letting them actually join up with friends....

The Book Of Boba Fett 5 Things The Show Changed About Boba Fett

Some of these changes were met with widespread fan acclaim, while other changes faced a little more scrutiny. Either way, it’s clear that The Book of Boba Fett wanted to show a deeper, more emotive Boba than fans were expecting. Whether the show succeeded is up to the fans. 5 Boba is a Nice Guy (Sort Of) Many fans might remember Boba Fett’s cold and seemingly merciless personality from The Empire Strikes Back....

The Borowitz Report Gore Armed With Megaphone Arrested Outside White House

“Office of Management and Budget Director Joshua B. Bolten should resign! United States Trade Representative Robert B. Zoellick should resign!” Mr. Gore shrieked. “Secretary of Agriculture Ann M. Veneman should resign!” After receiving many complaints from neighbors, police were dispatched to remove Gore from the tree, but were unsuccessful. “We sent a couple of patrol cars down there and basically told him to move on, dot org,” said police spokesman Charles Brill....

The Borowitz Report O.J. No Longer 100 Percent Sure He Is Innocent

“For years, I’ve been pretty sure that I did not murder my wife,” Simpson said today at a golf course in Boca Raton, Fla., where he was taking a rare break from searching for the real killers of his wife. “But if Johnnie’s not 100 percent sure, I’m like, hey, maybe I better take another look at this.” Simpson added that it would be “crazy” not to be swayed by Cochran’s new statements, which he called “thought provoking....

The Borowitz Report Splitsville

The storybook romance between Hollywood’s favorite homonyms was reportedly alive and kicking until a few weeks ago, when the two stars realized for the first time that their last names were spelled differently, a friend of the couple revealed. The couple had finished lunch at The Ivy in Beverly Hills, dividing the check 50/50–but when it came back, Cruz and Cruise received each other’s credit card by mistake and discovered the spelling discrepancy....

The Borowtiz Report Saddam Demands Jury Of Megalomaniacs

The attorney, Jacques Verges, said that Saddam had already drawn up a “wish list” of potential jurors for his trial, topped by Al Qaeda honcho Osama bin Laden and real-estate mogul Donald Trump. “Saddam wants to put together what is basically an all-star team of megalomaniacs, and that team wouldn’t be complete without those two guys,” Verges said. But within hours of Verges’s announcement, a spokesman for Michael Jackson indicated that the self-styled King of Pop would be fishing in the same jury pool as Saddam....

The Buck Bites Back

The biggest problem is Japan. The dollar has been rising against most currencies, but its change against the yen is striking. At 126 yen, the dollar has leaped 60 percent from its postwar low in April of 1995. Against the mark, the dollar’s rise has been “only” half as great. It takes about 18 months for a shift in currency values to begin to affect trade flows. But eventually, because imports into the United States become cheaper and U....

The Burning Question Remaining After Brian Walshe Charged With Murder

A murder warrant was issued on Tuesday by Norfolk County District Attorney Michael W. Morrissey, charging Walshe with the death of his wife, Ana Walshe, who was last seen on New Year’s Day at their shared home. He was previously arrested on charges of misleading police in the investigation and was still in law enforcement custody when the new charge was issued. At this stage in the investigation and the growing case against Walshe, one significant question remains: How can he be charged with murder if his wife’s body has not yet been found?...

The Case For Nintendo S Own Version Of Game Pass

For now, Nintendo Switch does have a similar service only for NES/SNES games with Nintendo Switch Online. As great as those offerings are, it’s still nothing compared to what virtual console used to be on the Wii/Wii U. That’s where a Nintendo version of Game Pass could come into play, and frankly it would do just as well. The system could include first-party titles like Xbox, or just in general act as a replacement to Virtual Console....

The Case For Re Used Assets In Video Games

The re-use of everything from sound effects to character models is especially common for indie developers that do not have the resources of larger companies, but even major studios are frequently found creatively recycling material from existing sources. As demand for yearly sequels and ever more impressive graphics technology continues to grow, it certainly makes sense for developers to recycle material where they can, but there are also several reasons that such practices, when done well, are consumer friendly and benefit gamers as well....

The Case For The Elder Scrolls 6 To Star The Orcs

The Iliac Bay region, however, is also home to a race that could be a far more interesting focal point than either of western Tamriel’s human cultures. The Orcs of Tamriel, also known as Orsimer, meaning Pariah Folk, have some of the most interesting lore of all The Elder Scrolls species. With plenty of reasons to believe that The Elder Scrolls 6 could see shifting borders as the rivalry between the Empire and the Aldmeri Dominion reshapes the continent, the next game should star the Orcs, bringing their culture and history to the forefront of its story....
