TAG Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 Haven't seen a discussion about it here so......... vs.What do you guys think about the Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe game? This game is said to be the first MK game (not counting the ones on the Game Boy) that will not have an "M" rating; instead, it will be rated "T". According to Wiki (and other sources), DC put restrictions on this game, so fatalities are either going to be changed ALOT or removed entirely, in order to stay rated "T." I find the idea very.......random. Why pin Scorpion and Sub-Zero against Superman and Batman? Discuss (Or lock, if necessary). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SushiTheLegend Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 I know about this already, they were making Mortal Kombat 8 but it changed to this, the trailer of Batman owning Sub-Zero was pwn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want to hear their opinions. Also, this game was originally supposed to be MK8? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SushiTheLegend Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 Indeed, before the thing about DC came out, wikipedia had the game down as MK8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaitou Kid Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 No. First it was supposed to be a Crossover because tobias wanted the 8th to crossover.But he leftThen it was supposed to be a Pure MK game.Theeen they found DC!(BOOOOOO)So they were supposed to make this and MK8but then Boon said I wanna stick with Tobias idea from a long time ago a.So MK8 is now MKvsDC I personaly hate the idea1.The fatalities are gone.2.The match ups dont make senseSub v BatmanScorp v SuperSmoke v Flash[email protected]/?!3.If they were gunna do a crossover they could have done better like Street Fighter or Killer Instinct or Marvel(Its better and maybe fatalities would stay) So this game is a FAILure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So no head tearing or heart-snatching.2)Of course the matchups make no sense (Smoke vs. Flash? Where'd you hear that?)3)They most certainly could have (although I doubt they would have kept the fatalitites for any of the ones you mentioned except Killer Instinct.)Hopefully, they won't remove any more signature elements from the Mortal Kombat series.

SushiTheLegend Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 Actually Street Fighter probably the only other one that would have, Marvel I don't think would have...Capcom or Street Fighter would have because they can go pretty insane with their dark counterparts..

Guest JoshIcy Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 MK to me is about what you can do at extreme speeds, gore included.. so bad idea i dont like it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tkill93 Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 This sounds so stupid. MK characters > DC ones in fighting games.MK games > DC games Goro, Lui Kang, Scorpion, Sub-zero, Raiden, Kabal, Ermac, Baraka etc. I mean, come on? And trying to mix these two types of characters and games together? Ew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davok Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 Bah. Vandal Savage could destroy both MK and DC together. I mean, he's immortal, he's immune to physical injury, and he has all this superior technology. Sure, he'll get beaten up pretty badly, but sooner or later they'll tire out. Of course, he's probably not going to be in the game. Besides that, it seems meh. I'm 12, so I'm mostly against gore, but you guys can think what you want.

Lazer Yoshi Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 Perhaps MK and Primal Rage, since both games had fatalities. And the idea sux as much as marvel and capcom games put together. But, MK would be the living crap out of DC.Flash: I can run at super speeds.Liu Kang: I can fire balls. Bye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't seem gory enough to go all the way. If SF were to go they probably would still have the KAFatality Feature Because they probably wouldnt know what fatalities to do.

TAG Posted August 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 Well, since this is my topic, I can bump it, right? A little something for those fans of the clown prince of crime:http://www.gametrailers.com/player/38956.htmlAnd yes, you do get to see his fatality. And I must say, it definately fits him.

Cyber Altair Posted August 22, 2008 Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 Fatalities are there, they're just less hardcore meaning you don't take the guy's f--kin' head off =P also there is a double fatalities =P either way the game seems fun =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
