Um, I don't get it.

Seriously. What fictitious world am I in today?

Man, I didn't see this as being a positive, and the video hasn't moved me away from my poo-poo gun yet.

At the same time, tho, the whole "fighting while falling large distances" gameplay mechanic looked cool.

Mortal kombat with no fatalities

what's the point??


(DC will not let their heroes be killed for those that don't know))

I called it, the game looks toned down to me. And really isn't that the only thing Mortal Kombat had going for it. I am definitley not one of those fighting game snobs that thinks anything other than Virtua Fighter is beneath them, but when Mortal Kombat loses the gore it loses its appeal. I would much rather have a DC fighter without the inclusion of the MK universe.

This would be funny if it was April 1st. No blood, no fatalities, and incorporating a different universe into your game..... I really like the Mortal Kombat universe, why can't they stick to just that?

Yeah, April Fool's was two weeks ago.

I wasn't a negative nancy on this, until they dropped out the gore. If you can't pop off Batmans head, then why bother calling it Mortal Kombat? Now its just Kombat.

LOL, man is this game for real?
And if it is, is it supposed to be an arcade game?
Because it looks like shit!
You hear me Boon, it looks like shit.

This looks like an attempt to dethrone Super Smash Bros Brawl for having the most unassociated characters battle.

actually there was blood in that trailer... only saw it from blows to the face though...

Uh oh- can I start the fanboy flame war?

I mean really, is it likely that ANY Mortal Kombat character could actually take down a shitty DC superhero like Booster Gold LET ALONE somebody pwnful like Batman or, even better, Superman?

Kano vs. Superman- who do you think would win?

:P

Mortal Kombat just keeps getting worse and worse but seriously, they really threw this damn game outta left field. What the fuck man, what the fuck.

I'm a little disappointed by this announcement and the video trailer as well.

It's almost as if the MK dev team didn't think the next MK game would have enough meat to it to pull in an audience so they threw the DC characters in to make it more compelling.

I don't see how DC is going to allow it's infamous characters to spurt blood and be decapitated and mangled in the traditional MK fashion. The over-the-top blood, gore, and fatalities is what makes an MK game and if that's gone then I'm seriously worried.

I'm not going to throw this game under the bus quite yet though. We've only seen a little snippet of it. Let's see what else it has up its sleeve before writing this off as lame. If the game-play is fun and compelling enough then it will still have my interest.

Midway confirmed to Kotaku that there are no Fatalities and very little blood.

You know, after Boon said there would be no more MK games, then came out and commented on how GOW looked and that was how he invisioned his 3d MK game to look, I was looking forward to the next MK game. But this is ASS and I take this kinda personaly.

Ed Boon has now managed to alienate what few Mortal Kombat fans were left trying to follow the series.
Good going asshole. I hate you.

I wish it was Marvel vs. DC.
