Mortal Kombat was the only reason for the creation of ESRB (Entertainment Software Rating Board). The brutalities with which the gamers dispatch their enemies is something to be taken very seriously. Here is a list of the Top 10 fatalities from the latest Mortal Kombat 9:

Kung Lao’s Buzzsaw Fatality: This is a weird move from Kung Lao, who is supposed to be Shaolin Monk and a former member of the White Lotus Society. The guy just pulls off his hat and uses it as a saw to cut his opponent vertically into two and then flashes them with each half in either hand.

The keys for the move for Xbox 360 is Down, Down, Forward, Back, X while in sweeping distance. For PS3 they are Down, Down, Forward, Back, and Square while in sweeping distance.

Johnny Cage’s And The Winner Is Fatality: Cage’s sense of humor and brutality, all at the same time, is worth appraising. He is simply not done by chopping his enemy’s head into two but inflicts further pain by planting an award in between the halves. What else to expect from a former movie star?

The keys for Xbox 360 are Down, Forward, Down, Forward, B while in sweeping distance and for PS3 are Down, Forward, Down, Forward, Circle while in sweeping distance.

Jax’s Three Points Fatality: Simple yet cruel. Jax, a US Special Forces major, uses his bionic arms in the best possible way. First he just pulverizes his opponent with smashing blows which buries the lower part of his body below the ground and then he just delivers a heavy kick which just removes a head of the opponent from his body which goes flying. A perfect three pointer.

The keys for Xbox 360 are Forward, Forward, Back, Down, A within sweeping distance and for PS3 are Forward, Forward, Back, Down, X within sweeping distance.

Mileena’s Be Mine Fatality: Mileena always did and has a scary face. The move she produces is scarier. She starts off with throwing a set of knives at her opponent, then approaches him in a seductive way and suddenly rips his head off and starts eating it.

The keys for Xbox 360 are Back, Forward, Back, Forward, Y in jumping distance and for PS3 are Back, Forward, Back, Forward, Triangle in jumping distance.

Kitana’s Splitting Headache Fatality: One of the nastiest fatalities by Princess Kitana. She has a pair of bladed fans, looking like a knife, which she first introduces in her opponent’s gut and the fan opens up horizontally opening up the wound. She does the same with second fan and places it in the neck area which opens up vertically splitting the enemy’s head into two.

The keys for Xbox are Forward, Down, Forward, Back, A when in sweeping distance and for PS3, they are Forward, Down, Forward, Back, X when in sweeping distance.

Shang Tsung’s Identity Theft Fatality: The move is an improved version of Shang Tsung’s previously banned one. It may look simple but can be horrifying. The character just takes possession of his opponent’s body and makes him kill himself by plucking his head out. The opponent at that moment is completely helpless.

The keys for Xbox 360 are Down, Down, Back, Down, Y in jumping distance and for PS3 are Down, Down, Back, Down, Triangle in jumping distance.

Reptile’s Acid Yak Fatality: Reptile is a creative creature who knows several ways to inflict pain. He just rips out his opponent’s stomach after spitting acid down his throat.

The keys for Xbox 360 are Forward, Forward, Down, Up, A in sweeping distance and for PS3 are Forward, Forward, Down, Up, X in sweeping distance.

Sindel’s Migrane Fatality: Sindel shows you how to use your voice as a weapon. In the game Sindel just uses her voice to blow away half of her opponent’s head.

The keys for Xbox 360 are Back, Forward, Down, Forward, X while in sweeping distance and for PS3 are Back, Forward, Down, Forward, Square while in sweeping distance.

Kabal’s It Takes Guts Fatality: Kabal, a former member of the Black Dragon organization, uses something like a crowbar, called a hook-swords, to rip off his opponent’s intestines and then the opponent falls onto the hook-swords. It may sound as nothing interesting but viewing the move may change that.

The keys for Xbox 360 are Down, Down, Back, Forward, RT while in sweeping distance and for PS3 are Down, Down, Back, Forward, R2 while in sweeping distance.

Sektor’s Scarecrow Fatality: This move is beyond all expectations and the most bizarre one, and shows the innovation of the developers. A strange device is deployed which sticks to the opponent’s torso and suddenly separates all the body parts.

The keys for Xbox 360 are Down, Down, Forward, Back, X at max distance and for PS3 are Down, Down, Forward, Back, Square at max distance.
