The fact that a lot of the characters have the same stances and combos worries me, somewhat. If the combo system is anything like MK4, I will cuss.

... you a comic book fan arc?


Before you continue, let me just say that I hope you're not going to pull the old 'If you're a true comic book fan, you will stay far from this game' shtick, because that is beyond ridiculous. I think I've gone over quite a few times why the whole logic behind 'OMG WHAT DID THEY DO TO SUPERMAN?!' is, quite frankly, a load of nonsense.


yea.. that is the only thing i don't like at all, the stances making the game dull and stiff looking.. but they have until quite november to do everything right, i hope they are listening to the fans.

I do agree though that unless you are a MK fan or a DC fan this game mightn't appeal to you based on the gameplay videos released so far. What this needs to attract the masses is



NUDITY!!!

as a matter of fact all games should have that.

LMAO. Oh geez, rb.

Anyway....since I didn't get a chance to do so, I'm going to squeeze in as many updates as possible in this post, since a lot went on since I was last here.

First things first, we've already established the fact that Liu Kang and Captain Marvel (SHAZAM!) are going to be in this game. Here are the renders for those characters:







IGN has also released a new gameplay video, which you can see here:
http://uk.ps3.ign.com/articles/893/893888p1.html


Also, fellow MK creator John Tobias (he's baaaaaack) is going to create a special edition comic book for the game, (however, it's only available in the special edition versions, so snap up a copy while you can.)


ALSO CONFIRMED:

- New Arena: Superman's Fortress of Solitude.
- New Characters: Jax, Kitana, Green Lantern and....




WHY SO SERIOUS?

Mortal Kombat: Kollection Announced
Posted On: Jul 26 2008, 12:25 AM

Midway has announced today the release of Mortal Kombat: Kollection for PlayStation 2:




CHICAGO - July 25, 2008 – Midway Games Inc. (NYSE: MWY), a leading interactive entertainment industry publisher and developer, today announced Mortal Kombat®: Kollection™, a special collector's edition box set that combines three of the most recent Mortal Kombat releases from the award-winning, and Midway's best-selling video game fighting franchise into one explosive package.

Exclusively for the PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system, Mortal Kombat: Kollection features Mortal Kombat: Deception®, Mortal Kombat: Armageddon®, and Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks®. Packing more punch, fatalities and characters into one box than ever before, Mortal Kombat: Kollection is expected to be available this September for a U.S. MSRP of $29.99, just in time for players to refine their skills before the scheduled release of the highly anticipated Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe this holiday season.

"Mortal Kombat has been a pinnacle fighting franchise for well over a decade now and this is an ideal package for fans and collectors in terms of content and price point," said Mona Hamilton, vice president of marketing, Midway Home Entertainment. "With the PlayStation®2 still holding the highest market share of any home console, we saw this as the perfect opportunity to offer an incredible value to our consumers as we ramp up for the highly anticipated launch of Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe."



Also, for those of you who were hoping for a brand new MK (sans the superheroes), you have some good news here:

Mortal Kombat 9 Planned As A Mature Return To Form
Posted On: Jul 26 2008, 12:20 AM

Kotaku has reported that there are already plans for Mortal Kombat 9:

While that grittier, darker version of MK didn't make it far beyond the technology development stages — Boon told us there was little in the way of concept art for the grimier spin on the series — the next next Mortal Kombat may strive for more blood, more violence, more of everything that warrants an M-rating.

The artistic vision of a less saturated, less Superman filled fighter is still swimming around Boon's head, a title that may rest on the success of MK vs. DC. We spent more time with the crossover fighter tonight and talked with Boon about plenty of other MK-related topics. Tune in tomorrow for the rest of our conversation.

By nudity I mean female nudity.

With Cap Marvel in the game this is a definite buy. To my knowledge this is the first ever videogame appearance of him.

Crixx, that's been explained to death already. Enough with that crap.
Seriously, I hear any more of this 'How the hell can anyone fight Superman?' crud even after we explained it, and I will  beat them soundly with a tire iron and force them to listen to Barry Manilow albums till their brains explode.

So, with that said, no more comments like that in this thread. God.

More Kombatants Join The MK VS. DCU Roster
Posted On: Aug 20 2008, 06:11 PM

At today's Leipzig Games Convention press conference, Midway unveiled four more characters for the eagerly anticipated Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe. Additions to the roster include Mortal Kombat favorites Raiden and Kano, along with DC super villain, Deathstoke, and the legendary Wonder Woman.

Deathstroke's in the game. Mother f**king Deathstroke. Next to Lobo and V, he's an ideal choice for this crossover.

Does it really matter? How could Spiderman defeat Thanos in Marvel Super Heroes. It doesn't have to make sense once it plays good.

Well no yu wrong there eroo

spiderman CAN beat thanos, because thanos ALWAYS lets himself loose just when hes on the verge of universal domination

Warlock deconstructed him the first time he got the entire infinity gauntlet and fought basically every hero and villain in the marvel universe

and the people that took him down were a combination of wolverine and some mentally messed up facially disfigured woman.

He has some mental issue, he doesnt really want to win when he knows he can.

So spiderman CAN do it.
And besides, its within the same universe, same laws apply.

Cross universe is a different kettle of fish.

And again i just wanna hear what toots dey usin for lantern and ww, both of whom have a GREAT degree of magical immunity.

Spiderman being able to defeat Thanos is subject to what you consider defeat. If by Thanos just lying down on the ground and saying Spiderman had won is meant Spiderman defeating Thanos then yes you are correct. Otherwise If Spiderman punched all week with Thanos not throwing a punch he still wouldn't take him down. Actually his knuckles would probably be bloody after the first 2 punches.

Thanos does self sabotage himself right when he is on the verge of getting exactly what he wants. I seriously doubt seeing Spiderman dead is something that he has been desiring being that it is so insignificant.

If DC vs MK was going to be a crossover comic that would be CANON then yes I would be upset but its not. Its just a fun fighting game.

If you want to talk toots how did Storm beat Wonder Woman in DC vs Marvel with lightning when her bracelets can deflect them?? but that doesn't matter cuz its not canon.

As a matter of fact how could Sonya have won the last game? Is Sonya really powerful enough to defeat the Dragon King?

Green Lantern should really have no magical immunity because the Guardians themselves have said the rings are science not magic but then it is powered by a cosmic power battery.

Anyhow you want a toots explanation for Lantern and WW and I will provide.

The Dragon King returned to New Earth (current DC Earth) after 2 millennium ( or some other really long time) by creating a hole in the multiverse. On Earth he took the name he used when last he was here which is Anubis. He set a decree that whoever could defeat the Scorion King Shang Tsung would lead his army of the the undead.

WW and GL magic invulnerability would we useless against strong magic of those of Zeus, Odin or the MK equivalent the Elder Gods. The Elder Gods put a magic spell on everybody that would put them all the same powerlevel so that Sonya or even GA could have a shot at winning.

and that's my toots explanation.

Hey, Crixx, a better one for you.

How can Ryu beat a Sentinel?
Can Chun-Li have a hope in hell of beating Juggernaut?
How is Mega Man capable of beating Magneto?

All of that is possible in game for Marvel vs. Capcom, and yet from a storyline perspective, it's pure nonsense. I'm still waiting for one person to give me a feasible answer as to how the concept behind MK vs DC is any different from Marvel vs. Capcom, because both feature impossible match-ups between comic book superheroes and characters from fighting games.

So, want to know how Kano's going to beat Green Lantern? How in the blue hell Sonya's going to slap Wonder Woman silly without getting her wrist broken from the latter's super strength? Or how Scorpion's even going to put a dent in Superman at all without Kryptonite?

Seriously? Who cares?
Nobody plays a game and expects 100% pure logic.
If that was the case, we'd all be arguing why soldiers who do rocket jumps in those FPS don't just blow themselves to smithereens just like in real life instead of enjoying the game itself. So quit your whining. It's annoying.

Now, enough. Any more posts crapping all over this thread with comments like "HOW DOES ANYBODY HERT SOOPERMAN?!" will get pruned. Fed up of people whipping that dead horse.

That sentence sums it up so nicely.  I'm willing to forget which universe they're from.
If people could accept X-Men vs Street Fighter and Marvel vs Capcom, and even Capcom vs SNK,
then why not this?

Jeez.
