Abstract Mortal Kombat T-Shirt Has Minimal Gore
By Jared Newman
What does the abstraction of Mortal Kombat tell us about the game’s character design? That distinct color schemes and decorative outfit flourishes ruled the day, of course. If you want to make this argument to friends who clearly don’t get the beauty of Mortal Kombat, you can buy the T-shirt for $20. Same goes for Street Fighter II, whose characters are equally striking when stripped down to simple lines of color. Props to Infinite Continues for the artwork, but I’d really like to see the Mortal Kombat art in poster form. The SFII poster is already available. [via Technabob]

I came across your site today, and I have to say, it is one of the best video games sites that I've ever seen. It is just pure genius, and it has inspired me somewhat to make a video games website myself. Although, I've been struggling to get the site off the ground and was wondering if you could help me out a little bit. Could you please link to my site? I would be willing to give you guys a reciprocal link, but I know that wouldn't carry much weight since I am currently a PR 0. Hopefully, with your help I will be able to get this site off the ground and then later repay you the favor. Thanks and keep up the good work. My site: http://www.videogamevoodoo.yolasite.com
