| trdl23 07/27/21 4:49:05 PM #41: | Thank you Shonen. #52: Earthshattering Kaboom Nominator: @LOLIAmAnAlt (0/1 remaining) Character: Smoke Source Material: Mortal Kombat 3 Scores: Aesthetics: 3 Dominance: 6 Damn: 4 Total Score: 13/30 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxTBLKH4tZ4 Another one whose aesthetics suffer for its hardware, but I like this entry more than its grade makes it look. It's so goofy and hilarious, perfectly in keeping with Mortal Kombat's quick move into as much a parody game as a "brutal" one. There's something oddly aggressive about "I beat the hell out of you so hard I have time to summon a billion bombs from hammerspace and blow up the world." Does Smoke need to do this? Absolutely not. Does he sacrifice himself for no good reason? Yep. Adorable. You know, I'm surprised none of the modern games (9 and onward) tried to remake this one, considering it's an old-school fan favorite. The reason it remains low despite my enjoyment is that it's just so ridiculously implausible and nonsensical that I can't take it seriously, even as a parody. Still, this was great. Sadly (or perhaps not?) the nominator's name can no longer be tagged, which means they closed their account or it was closed for them. --- E come vivo? Vivo! ... Copied to Clipboard! |
