The folks over at IGN have compiled a list of what they believe to be the top ten goriest game deaths of all time, and of course, Mortal Kombat appeared on the list. To be sure, there were some other gruesome deaths which also gave MK a run for its money.

How do you pick the goriest death scene from one of the most notoriously bloody fighting series in gaming history? You look at all of them and pick the one that grosses you out the most. We realize this is a matter of personal taste (or lack thereof), but for our money, peeling someone's flesh from their bloody skeleton in one slippery slough is about as gory as it gets. Flawless victory.

I guess you could say there's just something a-peel-ing about this Fatality!
