Mortal Kombat vs Modern Fashion

Go to your wardrobe and take a look at all those clothes you've bought over the years. Think about how much all that rubbish cost, and how little of it you actually wear any more. Contemporary fashion is a brutal creature, and if you don't follow the rules then nobody will ever look or speak to you ever again. Essentially, you have a choice of two options: either work like a miserable dog, shedding sweat and tears as you struggle to earn the cash that will buy you this year's must-have look; or you give up. If you give up, and stay inside your house forever, your skin will grow pale and you'll learn to hate sunlight - but at least you'll have enough spare time to beat Ninja Gaiden II on hard.

Mortal Kombat offers a different perspective. As we all know, the ever-present single message behind the series is that it's always important to be yourself - especially while pulling off someone's head. The Outworld combatants don't throw a hissy fit when they have a bad hair day; they just get on with the job at hand. It doesn't matter that Scorpion always wears a silly yellow cowl; his real friends will see the person inside. Which in his case is an evil skeleton, burning eternally with the vengeful flames of hell.

Verdict: Mortal Kombat wins

The varied looks and styles of the Mortal Kombat cast mean that everyone is sure to find someone they can relate to - from Raiden's natty hat and robes to Baraka's slap-headed confidence. One word of warning: we don't recommend that you copy Goro's "naked apart from a Zodiac loincloth" look - if it falls off in public, you may go to prison.
