Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe

Re: Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe

DC doesn't exactically want their character's image harmed in that way. There will be blood, bruises, and ripped clothing (faceplates in the case of Scorpion and Sub-Zero) but don't expect to brutally kill them.

Isn't that 73% of the fun in MK?

Re: Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe

Yeah, according to that Game Trailers episode they showed recently, Boon stated that all the MK characters and the DC villians will have some kind of finishing move, while the DC heroes will have like super moves, or "brutalities".

Besides that, I'm curious to see all the characters they include. MK at the moment has basically confirmed: Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Sonya and Shang Tsung. While DC has: Batman, Superman, The Flash and Catwoman.

Re: Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe

DC villains and fatalities? Awesome.

Though it'd be kinda cool to watch Superman punch a person's head off as a fatality.

And Shang will just own.

There aren't going to be any fatalities in this game... =/

Re: Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe

Whaaaaaaaaat?

Playing MK without fatalities is like playing Soul Calibur.

You know it's fun and all, and you want blood in it, but it's never going to happen.

(EDIT: Not that I have anything against SC, I love it.)

Re: Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe

Yeah, I know. This game is going to completely blow.

It's just going to come out really funny when they try to take themselves seriously bringing these two worlds together.

Re: Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe

o.O When was "No fatalities" confirmed? Or is it just your speculation?

Damn... I need to see more videos :<

Edit: Well from what I read in an interview from Ed Boon, The MK and D.C. villians will have fatalities, and the D.C. heroes will have brutalities http://www.gamepro.com/news.cfm?article_id=194508

My wish list:
Aqua Man
Darkseid
Superman (Justice Lord, freaking Lobotomize fatality)
Green Latern
hmm and more

Re: Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe

I highly doubt the "no fatalities" thing, though.

It's not like MK.

Your edit seems likely, by the way.

Re: Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe

Not if you get to uppercut them into ravines that lead to spikes, before falling down and goring them repeatedly in the stomach while they lie writhing in pain on the spike that penetrated their legs and arms. Before throwing acid over their face then ripping off their skull and eating it.

That would be ok.

Perhaps if combined with a PhotoShop-like integration where I can add the faces of everyone I hate. Ah... That'd be amazing.

Also, that's the only confirmed characters? I'm thinking about renewing my Game Informer subscription to get a piece of this.

Let's say for example you were the one who created Superman. Do you really want your character of Superman to have his head ripped off by Sub-Zero? Are you prepared for the fanboy backlash? DC fans are crazy.

They want to preserve the DC characters while still involving them in a fighting game without breaking too many "rules". Such as Superman being able to beat pretty much any fighter there with a single punch.

That sounds like Kintaro or Shao Khan to me.

Re: Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe

Ah, I was going off their inital announcement. They had originally planned on just having "finishing moves" that werent necessarily fatalities.

I'm glad they changed their minds on that. Now all they have to do is ditch the silly notion of making the game rated "T" and we are set.
