  John Tobias - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John Tobias was one of the creators (along with Ed Boon) of the groundbreaking Mortal Kombat fighting game series for Chicago-based Midway.
By the end of the 1990s, however, the MK series, due to several disappointing releases and the ill-received 1997 film Mortal Kombat: Annihilation (the sequel to the successful 1995 original), hit a low ebb.
Dissatisfied with the downward direction in which the franchise he helped bring to life was heading, Tobias, along with many staff members, left Midway in 2000 during the production of Mortal Kombat: Special Forces, which flopped upon its release.
