I think the game should get canned, I have been looking forward to a proper MK game not some sill cross between MK and DC. Seriously Midway get rid of this crap and make a proper gory next gen MK game.

I like the idea of this game, except making it not rated M. I think it would have been bada** to see Superman or Batman deliver a really cool fatality. I think that removing the blood and fatalities will make it fail.

Not that MK has taken itself really seriously before but this is a step too far and tbh a lot of mk gamers are to grown up for comic heroes. it cheapens it in my opinion and feels way too odd.

I really want this game. I dont get why everybody hates the idea. I mean, we have Marvel vs. Capcom. People friggin loved that game. If you want a Mortal Kombat fight, use only MK charactors. Seriesly, I think it looks fun

I don't think it will be canned since its the only relevant franchise they have... But it will fail.

DC crossovers? Rated T? No fatalities?

This sounds like the worst direction MK could have gone for...

That is because Street Fighter worked and X-Men: Children of the Atom worked... I still have to see Midway doing something (other than MK) in the last years that worked... Even Armageddon was not very good.

Yeah I think so as well. Especially crossing over with DC. DC is gonna make MK look bad. Especially without there being any fatalities. Midway should make MK cross over with Dead or Alive or Tekken at least. But that's my opinion.

yes, its a pretty desperate attempt to draw attention to their game... kind of like what Soul Calibur 4 is doing with the starwars implamentation. Both games could turn out good, but most likely won't....

the person that suggessted the idea in the first place should be canned. i just dont see it doing well. to me it just seems like a desperate attempt. i hope they realise what they are doing before its too late. i would rather not play another MK game for awhile than to be presented with this mess called a game

Im really looking forward to this game, it might not be the next proper MK installment but I really like the idea of a MK crossover game, DC universe seems like a good choice for it aswell. Providing they don't completely get rid of some kid of finishing move and the trademark amounts of gore I feel it will be a good game.

Midway vs Marvel with fatalities would have been a gold mine, D.C. imo only has like 2 dudes that are even worth playing, Batman and Superman, the rest are pretty lame.

Besides if Superdud can take bullets to the eye, What will punches do to him? If Midway believes this to be the game that restores MKs good name after that craptacular Armageddon they are seriously mistaken. MK without fatalities is like The Price Is Right without games.

The idea is terrible, but I really doubt it will get canned. One of the things that will increase sales is the Teen rating, and a character like Batman ,especially with Dark Knight around the corner, will really help in sales to people that have not followed the previous MK games. It totally sucks that they are going against everything that made MK what it is known for in the gaming community though, it feels like a betrayal or a selling out.

yeah man I think they need to go back to the drawing board on this one. There was a rift on every gamer site after that freaking trailer was released. Everybody is in a rage lol including me. This is stupid. They need to rethink this one. Could be the last MK lol. Seriously Teen Kombat?????

The game, both in concepts and by the trailer just looks straight out bad. I understand that everything should be given a chance but they took a core element out of MK - that being the gore and fatalities and are slapping a "T" rating or whatever on it. That's pretty much castrating the series. Besides, the graphics so far looks pretty subpar for next-gen.

Now, I'm not entirely crazy of having Star Wars characters in Soul Calibur, but at least the game looks and seems to play top-notch. The same cannot be said for MK vs. DC.

Marvel Vs Capcom succeeds, so why not this ?

probably due to MK, it will fail. because since MK Trilogy there is no single good MK game...

Only difference though is that SC would do well even without the star wars characters because the game just works. MK vs. DC on the other hand... what?

Dude they took out the staple of what the MK franchise is. The only way this would be like SC4 is if they took away everybodies weapons in SC4.

TheLegendKnight

Marvel vs Capcom succeeded because they were both Teen rated games anyway. MK is Mature rated it's always been bloody and full of gore. Now they are going to completely take away what made MK a competitor against street fighter in the first place. Bad move. Street Fighter IV is going back to the roots, nex gen style. Why can't Ed Boon do the same, and get his s#@$ together and make real MK that's back to the roots too?

it's going to be an epic failure.

first off, DC sucks...I'll take venom and wolverine over batman and superman any day of the week.

secondly, mortal kombat hasn't been platinum since mk2, and the 3d games just haven't done anything for me. Fatalities were dumb, cartoony, and just embarassing.

boon and company must have been on some fierce meds when they thought of this garbage.

too bad there won't be a marvel vs. capcom 3...dante and leon kennedy vs. ghostrider and carnage...that stuff writes itself.

I just about hit my head against the wall pretty hard when I saw this game coming out with the MK logo on it. big mistake to even think of this concept for MK.

but... I guess we shall see what the outcome will be for this game. I just hope it gets canned.

Ya the idea is just terrible. It has already been said that it will have barely ANY blood and no M rating. I think everybody will just about pass up this game.

Hopefully it will get canned. The world might just end if it has to endure another terrible MK game.

I loved the series, back in the SNES days when it was awesome. Now this whole MK/DC thing is just sad to watch. I've said it before, it needs repeating. This is just like watching two flailing, rotting corpses trying to save each other. They just flop around, unable to do anything. It's entertaining to watch, yes, but completely unnecessary.

I've never been a DC fan, they have all of the cliche super heroes that were relevant 50 years ago. But I used to love MK and I wish it would just die in peace, I'd rather remember it for what it was than what it is becoming.

This is crap at it's finest. There are no good fighters anymore. We only have Tekken 6 and Soul Caliber. While I agree that the star wars characters are dumb and probably will play really bad like all the exclusive characters in SC2, all the rest will play very well. Link, Heihachi, and Spawn played very bad in SC 2. They did not work at all. The only reason everybody got the GC version was just to play as link in a fighter, but he was mostly crap. The boomerang was slow and the bomb barely went 2 feet when thrown. SF4 seems like SF2 with pseudo 3D graphics and a few new characters. Nothing I have seen of that games seems new at all. The fighting game genre is practically dead, Even SC4 isn't that new. Most genres are so played these days that is why I spend most of my gaming time playing emulators with old games because the new ones aren't really that new.
