When Edenia eventually succumbed to his rule, took the Queen Sindel and her daughter Kitana as his own, raising Kitana to be his personal assassin.


When Shao Kahn took the throne of Outworld for himself, he ruled fiercely, adding smaller realms to his domain, including the realm of Edenia. This has to be one of the most complicated and dysfunctional families in the gaming universe.Ī list about fights wouldn't be complete without including Mortal Kombat in some way. Keeping up? Somehow, again, he manages to return from this and then captures his own son, Jin, in an attempt to steal his demon powers. However, his evil side never fully took over and, in his doubtful moments, he is in turn thrown into a volcano by his father, who survived the cliff. He then gets revenge on his father and proceeds to throw him off the same cliff. His devil gene unlocks, turning him into a dark force to be reckoned with. After that, he fought his grandson, Jin for, having inherited the demon gene! Although you might feel sorry for Kazuya at this point, he is no saint. He stole his father's company from him, raised his son Kazuya and then threw him off a cliff in an attempt to make him a man.

Where the possibilities are endless and the stage can be grand, often meaning life or death, there are no shortage of family feuds in the gaming world, and we don't mean the hit family show hosted by Steve Harvey. Many games decided to throw the conflict we have with parents into the fray in a physical fashion. While some games do this by appealing to our sensitive sides, this isn't always the case. It would have been silly for games not to exploit a relationship which is so close to home for much of their audience. Sometimes, it's because you're a moody teenager who knows everything about the world and how it works, yet there you are, still learning years later. Sometimes we fight because we disagree, while other times we fight because we love each other and think we know whats best. However, with fragility also comes strengths at the worst of times. The relationship with our parent or caretaker can be a fragile one and can be tested to its limits at the best of times. Sometimes we clash with them and sometimes they're our best friends.

The saying goes that we are a product of our parents, as we embody many of their values and certainly a number of their traits.
