Presidential Hopefuls Fight to the Death!
With so much hoopla being brought up with the Iowa caucus electoral event looming in the imminent future (read that as tonight) and which savior the American people should choose as the next president of the US; one group has decided the ’ultimate’ way to decide who should be elected, with Mortal Kombat!
The game on the atom films website is about as fun as a game based on elected officials battling it out can be, however the area where this game truly shines is in the amount of political satire it has. Like Giuliani’s projectile locking someone in a cell which is a reference to his arresting homeless individuals in New York City when he was mayor*.
Each character uses a weapon, Giuliani uses ninja claws, Obama uses a samurai sword, while Clinton uses metal fans (ala Kitana in MKII). I put a good 5 minutes playing this game before growing bored with it, so if you’re in for a good laugh and a wasted 5 minutes of your life give the game a glance at www.kungfuelection.com.
(Many thanks to Razak for pointing out this little gem of the internet.)

I’m just a fan of the song really. “All I want to do is Kung Fu, Baby.” At first I thought it was talking about some sort of Kung Fu Baby, which would have also been awesome.
Just got back from our precinct’s Caucus.
Hillary gets 3 delegates
Edwards gets 4
Obama gets 6.
Glad to see Clinton gets trounced…I’d actually be torn between her or a Republican candidate if it came down to it. Probably.
^ I know that’s only semi-related to the post. :/
My bad.
