Special three-pack includes fan favorites: Mortal Kombat: Deception®, Mortal Kombat: Armageddon® and Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks® for $29.99.

I’m not a fan of putting K’s where all my C’s go when it comes to Mortal Kombat, so you won’t see me do that here.  What you will see is a lot of pointless MK phrases being thrown around like beads at Mardi Gras.

So, “Get Over Here!” and read the description on what Mortal Kombat Kollection comes bundled with.  I’ve always like the word ‘bundled’.

Exclusively for the PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system, Mortal Kombat: Kollection features Mortal Kombat: Deception®, Mortal Kombat: Armageddon®, and Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks®. Packing more punch, fatalities and characters into one box than ever before, Mortal Kombat: Kollection is expected to be available this September for a U.S. MSRP of $29.99, just in time for players to refine their skills before the scheduled release of the highly anticipated Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe this holiday season.

About Mortal Kombat: Deception

Mortal Kombat: Deception takes martial arts-style fighting and the Mortal Kombat franchise to new heights with an innovative fighting system, unparalleled depth and brutally intense action that will appeal to long-time Mortal Kombat fans as well as current-generation gamers. The game features lightning-fast, hand-to-hand and special weapons combat; secret and returning characters; new moves and combinations with death-dealing battles, and all-new life-threatening environments.

About Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks

Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks is an Action/Adventure title driven by intense single- and multi-player gameplay that is set in the period between the franchise’s original title, Mortal Kombat, and Mortal Kombat II. As in Mortal Kombat: Deception, background interactions e.g. acid pits, spiked ceilings, etc., multiple new fatalities, and action-based puzzles play an important role in the player’s quest for an “outstanding” victory as they maneuver through remodeled, classic Mortal Kombat environments. In franchise tradition, Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks also features an impressive line-up of well-known characters that make frequent appearances as enemies, in boss battles and during several additional in-game interactions.

About Mortal Kombat: Armageddon

Mortal Kombat: Armageddon is the latest chapter in the award-winning and Midway’s best-selling video game fighting franchise. With the most complete character roster ever, including every character from the Mortal Kombat fighting universe, revolutionary create-a-fighter and create-a-fatality modes, plus a brand-new Konquest mode, Mortal Kombat: Armageddon is the most complete, intensely lethal, fighting experience ever!

Have to admit, after playing Smackdown Vs. Raw 2008 I was a little disappointed to find out there weren’t a lot of Legend Wrestlers, so I returned it.  I may be old school, but I’m glad THQ came up with this version of WWE’s Legends of Wrestlemania.  It’s one to pick up… and keep.  Screens alone bring back memories of Wrestlemania III.

While Body Painting on Real Women is accepted, are their Video Game counterparts? Check out why naked women with Body Paint is somehow overlooked.

Many games display women as sex symbols. Body Painting women does no different. With all the games that star hot women as either the main character (Lara Croft), or playable fighting characters (Faye Valentine) I dig into the subject and ask “Is there a viewable difference between Video Game Babes and Body Painting?” Dead or Alive is a great example on how women in gaming and real women with body paint visually “look the same”.
