Find out what these ratings mean and how I rate video games.
I collect as much video gaming paraphernalia as I can get my hands on, especially when it comes to hardware. With over 40 systems including oldies like the ColecoVision and Intellivision, obscurities like the CD-i and 3DO, and the latest and greatest including the Wii U, PS4, Xbox One, 3DS, and PS Vita, I get easily overwhelmed. Most of the time you can find me firmly nestled sometime between 1985 and 1995 when it comes to my games of choice, but I'm also having a great time seeing what the 8th generation has to offer.

It may be a little earlier to start thinking about the next installment of Mortal Kombat, but here are some characters I would love to see.
Sidemeat – 25th Slice
At this rate, it seems that one day the Confederate Flag will be as hated as the swastika. Most people just can’t understand the idea of Southern heritage.
Top 10 Biggest Mistakes in Mortal Kombat History
Mortal Kombat has been an amazing series ever since it burst into arcades back in 1992. They’ve created memorable characters, stirred up controversy, and cemented their role in pop culture for years to come. But that doesn’t mean the road to greatness was always easy. Like any franchise, Mortal Kombat has had its perils and pitfalls over the years. Take a look at the Top 10 Biggest Mistakes in Mortal Kombat History and tell us what you think!
Mortal Kombat X – Android
Mobile apps – especially those offered as a tie-in to existing media – can be a real hit or miss…mostly a miss. However, Mortal Kombat X does a pretty decent job of both relating to the console port and establishing its own identity. It’s not quite perfect, but it is certainly worth a look for fans of the series.
Mortal Kombat: Unchained – PSP
Midway (and its successors) have always been fans of releasing various updates and ports of Mortal Kombat games. Mortal Kombat: Unchained is one of the most worthy handheld MK games, featuring all of the content from console versions of MK: Deception as well as 6 extra characters, 4 of which are exclusive. Unchained is one of the better titles to add to your PSP library.
Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe – 360
Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe marked a strange turn for the MK franchise, trading in its contemporary sword-and-sorcery setting for something more inline with a comic book crossover. The results are interesting and worth checking out for fans of either franchise, but ultimately, I don’t think it’s an experiment worth repeating.
PaRappa the Rapper – PSP
PaRappa the Rapper was one of the first music and rhythm games of the modern era and this PSP version captures all of its quirkiness, though falls behind in a few other respects.
Sidemeat – 24th Slice
The 24th slice discusses practical time travel through low budget indie film “Primer.”

Mortal Kombat Gold – Dreamcast
Mortal Kombat Gold is a Sega Dreamcast exclusive that was supposed to be a 6th generation update to MK4. While it added a few characters, it failed to make improvements to the core gameplay of MK4 and even introduced some problems of its own!
