Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe

[Lelo]

Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe is an upcoming scheduled crossover fighting game from Midway Games in the Mortal Kombat series, kinda like Marvel vs Capcom, which will be released on November 16, 2008. The game will contain characters from both the Mortal Kombat franchise and the DC Comics Universe. The game is being developed using Epic Games' Unreal Engine 3 and the release has been announced for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 platforms.

Mortal Kombat characters
Baraka
Jax
Kano
Kitana
Liu Kang
Raiden
Scorpion
Shang Tsung
Shao Kahn
Sonya Blade
Sub-Zero​

DC Comics characters
Batman
Catwoman
Darkseid
Deathstroke
The Flash
Green Lantern
The Joker
Lex Luthor
Shazam
Superman
Wonder Woman​

It has been announced that the game will feature a story mode, playable from two different perspectives, one from the DC side, and one from the Mortal Kombat side, and depending on which side players choose, they will see the characters from the opposite universe as the invaders of their own

It looks pretty sick and I love both franchises so its a must buy for me.

its clear to me that some people (most of my friends) simply throw this game out because of the concept of these two universes coming together. But it actually does look good, the gameplay still sticks to mk so I don't see the problem.

^I don't understand ur friends, if they are truly MK fans and/or DC fans then this game is a dream come true. Especially if they are into games like Marvel vs Capcom or Soul Caliber. Soul Caliber has brought opponents from different universes like Darth Vader, Yodi and Spawn and that worked out just fine.

Is it going to feature fatalities? How weird would it be for Liu Kang to transform into a dragon and chop Green Lantern in half

 

[Lelo]

Ya it is for all the MK characters and the DC Universe villains. The good DC characters wont have fatalities cause they dont kill people, instead they will have other finishers like Brutality.

I don't understand them either, they also dislike the fact that the star wars characters are in SC4, really weird.

Seems to be an excellent game!

Jugding for the gameplay, I'd say it has the same concepts of the three previous MKs, which is a good thing;

The DC characters, man, how I've missed them in a good game, but now, fighting among the MK characters, almost a dream ^^

I think my only complain is regarding the characters: only 22... But well, if they will weel developed like MK deception chars, it's good enough...

 

[doobious]

I personally think the CD characters fit better into the Marvel vs Capcom area....the whole 'dark violent' think I think fits with Marvel a lot better you know? They should just make Marvel Vs. Capcom Vs DC. I'd buy that in a heart beat. I also don't like 3d fighters that much

 

[Lelo]

^Marvel and DC collaberating, that would be awesome but they would fight over whos stronger than who.

 

[Red Hood]

Thats gonna be awesome,even tho it has been done with M.U.G.E.N. Im looking forward play this game.

US have a censored version ...LOL

 

[Lelo]

^ what do u mean, less blood, no heads flying. Dammit, why. Its ok, as long as I could kill Sub-Zero with the Flash Im fine

^ what do u mean, less blood, no heads flying. Dammit, why. Its ok, as long as I could kill Sub-Zero with the Flash Im fine

Because US only has a teen rating which is 13 +, and the blood, etc wouldn't be suitable for 13 year olds, but in Europe there is a 15+ and 16+ rating which is a big difference.

Has anyone bought the game yet, I havent. I dont have the time and I still have to find the time to beat Naruto Storm then ill go buyy it. But everyone Ive talked to said it's good

 

[patedecarne]

OK, guys, I've bought the game, and I can say to you, the game is great and addicting;

I think the gameplay is way more fluid than the previous MKs, and even though the character roster isn't huge, the characters are well belanced, and they have more moves when comparing with the previos MKs, again;

I've seen so much criticism about this game, and definitely, I won't trust in reviewers anymore, because so many games they claimed to be bad, but still I enjoyed these games and was having a fun time with them, like for example (Infinite Undiscovery).

 

[Lelo]

^ Im right with u on that. It's sick. I like the video clips they play in between fights. And the moves are pretty awesome. The Flash and Captain Marvel are fun to play with and the Joker is hilarious. He laughs after every special move, it's funny. If ur a fan of MK or DC or fightin games in general then I recommend u to go out and buy this

Any of you guys have a X-Box 360?

 

[patedecarne]

Yeah, I do


btw, I think my only grip with the game is about the fatalities and heroic fatalities: I know this game is censored and all, but almost all the fatalities have lost their fun: it's just they don't seem like the fatalities of MK deadly alliance and deception, for example (these games have a perfect example of well done fatalities)

 

[Tenryuken]

I am living in Belgium and mine isn't sensored.
Right now my Gold account is about to expire(07/01/09) so in Feb I will be back on the Live and we will be able to crush eatch other's skull to no limit.

 

[Lelo]

Yeah, I do

true, but we're also getting older so we're getting used to seeing gore. After watching stuff like the Saw and Hostel movies, nothing really grosses me out anymore
