MAJOR WARNING for discussions and depictions of fictional violence and murder!
MORTAL KOMBAT!!!!!!!! 
This franchise was my first love, as far as video games are concerned! And it has been around since the 1990's! It's a classic, and I don't think it requires much of an introduction! Mortal Kombat is referenced in all kinds of media across genres and across decades. And new games are still being released in 2023!!! Much to my delight, LOL! While MK originally took shape in the form of a classic, arcade fighting game, it spawned a franchise of movies, comics, and even more games all featuring its well-known cast of characters!
One thing that I love about MK is the fact that the oldest characters are pretty much always brought back and featured in new games. I love to see the evolution of the character designs, personalities, and relationships. I love a wide variety of the characters... In fact, it would probably be difficult for me to find the ones that I really dislike... All of them make me feel a cozy nostalgia for being a teenager and playing Mortal Kombat 9 for the first time. I can still remember sitting cross-legged on the carpeted floor, mashing buttons as I played as my favorite characters!
