The next Mortal Kombat game is going to be a crossover with DC comics characters. Also, I may cry that they're sticking my beloved Batman in amongst some of the :skull::skull::skull::skull:tiest fighting game characters ever created.

Good luck ripping his heart out, then. Whatever. Kryptonite is cheating.

It's apparent that they're trying to cash in on the whole Marvel vs. Capcom line, but the problem is that the art styles of MK and DC don't mix in the least, nor do the concepts behind the universes, so it's basically going to be a horrible mashing of conflicting ideas unless they somehow manage to do something absolutely amazing. But I won't hold my breath.

I cant wait to see some of the DC characters Fatalities.

Scratch that, yes I can... i can wait a very very long time.

Sounds dumb. But then again, I've never been a fan of Mortal Kombat.

Rumor: MK v DC Has Little Blood, NO FATALITIES? (http://kotaku.com/381302/mk-v-dc-has-little-blood-no-fatalities)

MK is not MK without the fatalities. But maybe without those, the creators could spend more time fine tuning the rest of the gameplay.

Can't wait to see how this turns out, even if I never play it.

I haven't played Mortal Kombat for about two games now, even though I own them.

I thought that last one was supposed to be the last one in the series o.o


(I gotta get that game, btw)

Mortal Kombat sucks anyway, its a shame there dragging DC into this. At least Marvel were put in capable hands.

Because of how different the two styles are, I'm expecting a new style so that they fit together.

It's a fighting game, it doesn't need to make sense.

I think that the Capcom vs. Marvel series was executed excellently, as it is still played in major fighting game tournaments around the world. I can only hope that the Mortal Kombat vs. DC series performs half as well, as I have little love for the Mortal Kombat series from a gameplay perspective.

From the trailer I saw, I have to say it looks promising.

Doesn't mean it should play like crap. D:

IMO, this is a pretty good match, but not in the way you might think.

A few DC villains look like they could fit into MK. Also, MK and DC are two of (IMO) the worst things ever spawned. Sorry for my bias, but I've never really liked DC Comics nor Mortal Kombat (for reasons that would take forever to put down here and would crash the server upon posting), so sticking them together is pretty much a match made in heaven. :p

Piffle. DC is great. Batman alone would be enough to make DC great. :P
