Mortal Kombat is by far one of the most violent and gruesome video game series ever made. What more do you expect from the video game that popularized the skull and spine extraction, right? We enjoy the brutal nature of the game because we enjoy beating the crap out of out our best friends from time to time. But, one of the biggest things that goes unaccounted in Mortal Kombat is the cost of all the brutal x-ray injuries.
