Alleged 'Mortal Kombat' Reboot Character List Gets Leaked, Throwing Fans Into A Panic

By Tanya
The movie Mortal Kombat was a pretty exciting thing back in the day. While it's pretty popular for movies to be made out of video games now, back in the 90s it was all still new. The thing was, the movie didn't turn out as great as everyone expected. Critics hated it, and fans weren't completely sold on it either. While it made a decent amount of money, they kind of pushed their luck and made a sequel, seemingly killing the franchise. But it seems as though enough time has passed, and Warner Bros. and New Line are ready to

'The Oregon Trail' Is Back And More Portable Than Ever, And We Can't Wait To Die Of Dysentery

By Tanya
Growing up, we didn't really have the same advanced video game as kids today have. We had to use our imaginations. Sure, looking back it was a little bit less than impressive, but honestly, we had more fun playing those simple games than almost any of these extremely complicated ones. Oregon Trail is perhaps one of the most notorious and iconic games that we played during computer class. It seemed to be loaded up onto every school computer, so that we could learn all about traveling on the frontier, including the struggles that came with it. Sure, about 90% of

Sure, we knew Slimer wasn't going to come around the corner because Spengler had him under control, but also, what if he did? We weren't about to get caught off guard, so we spent all our free time rewatching the movie, catching up on the cartoon, and playing with every Ghostbusters-themed toy we could find to make sure our ghost catching skills were up to snuff.

There's A Miniature Video Store And It Will Make You Nostalgic For The '90s All Over Again

By Maya
In today's day and age, we can practically get anything we want with just a snap of our fingers. With the help of laptops and smartphones we're able to purchase basically anything we want online, and have it shipped to us as fast as possible. While the 21st century has created an alternative to prolong our anti-social behavior, we also need to take time to honor all the things technology has made obsolete. One of those things taken away from us are video stores, like Blockbuster and Hollywood Video. It seems like centuries ago we would go cruising to the
