Mortal Kombat 8: MK vs DC Universe!

[Philosophical45]

but i will still say the game looks like it will suck... until i am proven wrong, i will say it until then.... *coming from a pc guy*

"Dude... Keep these stupid self-righteous, idiotic, empty statements on the inside"  hardly constitutes picong. I fail to see how. Dem dar's fighting words. Also, there's nothing in the Sweatology thread (that hasn't been deleted, at least) that is such a blatant affront as this, just pithy tit-for-tat comments. There's no need to be so self-aggrandizing about an opinion. Not about a game at least. Hell, I -agree- with the man on most of the points made in his post...

...but you could state an opinion without being directly inflammatory and without delighting in being a c*nt about your opinion either. Just mho.

Quoted for truth.

For crying out loud, the game hasn't been released yet. They just show a sample of the fighting.

As much as the man may have a point, Sync is right. That is NOT picong. Jonesin on your boy for slammin an ugly chick wen he was tight... Dat is picong. The only thing he didn't do in that post was tell NEO how he was born. *Dat's sum disrespectful shit and allyuh KNOW allyuh wuzzen takin dat so.*

Anyway, NEO also has a point and I'll try any game once so... We'll see when it comes out. I just find the mere concept to be utter balls.

What's Superman's Animality?
Does Baraka get a cape?
Kitana wants an invisible jet too, dammit.
Who will scream louder: Liu Kang or Joker?

Maybe I'm just being paranoid but this story will give me REAL trouble.


WAIT NAH... I just see "Village Idiot" under the man name fuh real!
Don't play wit admin, boi!!! LMAO XD

[whiplash]

LOf**kingL @ Village idiot
This game could be the next Marvel vs Capcom ..or not
but we shall all see in time if its good or not.Remember the fighting system is different.

All right.....thread pruned.
Let's hope this thread can carry on without the cannonballs being flung.

[New Era Outlaw]

Ah, I see. Well, in any case, there is going to be a playable demo at E3 from July the 15th to July the 17th. Maybe then, we'd see how the game's going to play.

EDIT: Pure idleness from Kombat (of the Kombat Pavilion):

[New Era Outlaw]

Midway has released another render. This time, it's Sub-Zero:

[Q]

As a regular at the Kombat Pavilion myself, NEO just made my day. I laughed until that bittersweet point of involuntary urination.

Bless you NEO and thank you SO MUCH. LMAO!!! XD

[Crixx_Creww]

... i dont see what was funny there

[New Era Outlaw]

I think he was talking about that little animated GIF in the post above Sub-Zero. The one where Baraka does a Fatality on Superman by pulling out a piece of Kryptonite.

[New Era Outlaw]

NANANANANANANA....BATMAN!!!!

[Eroo]

I like the body armour/kevlar look.

[Trinitus]

It forcing him to stay fitt too, could you imagine a fat batman.....

Some leaked screenshots have revealed two more characters in the game, Sonya Blade and the Flash.

The fighting still looks rather stiff. I hope you're taking notes, Midway, because a lot of people are noticing that.


Also, two more stage renders have been revealed by Midway, both belonging to Batman. Here are renders of Gotham City and the Batcave:

For those of you concerned about the 'no Fatalities' in this game, this might come across as some good news. Gamespot recently interviewed Ed Boon, and this is what he had to say:


GameSpot: Ed Boon Interview + New Screenshots
Posted On: Jun 25 2008, 12:38 AM

Today GameSpot has posted an interview with Mortal Kombat's Co-Creator Ed Boon. In this interview he confirms that Mortal Kombat VS. DC Universe will indeed have Fatalities and gives some information on what is going to be shown on E3 next month. Part of the update are 5 new screenshots from the game. Some of those screenshots show blood and really amazing looking cuts and bruises.

Here is a small peace of the interview:

GS: Have you made any more headway on the fatality versus finishing moves?

EB: Yes we have. All of the MK characters and all of the DC villains will have fatalities. The DC heroes who don't kill that often will have brutalities that will function just like fatalities but don't actually kill the opponent.

GS: What can we look for at E3?

EB: We will be showing four characters and two arenas.

GS: So now that the door's been opened with MK vs. DC, do you think fans might get MK vs. Street Fighter?

EB: I've never held back my enthusiasm for doing a project like MK vs. Street Fighter. I still think it would be a blast to do. But the reality of the situation is that we are two different companies. That's a tough obstacle to overcome. It's kind of like doing Tekken vs. Virtua Fighter, Die Hard vs. Rambo, Coke vs. Pepsi, "Family Ties" vs. "Growing Pains," Alien vs. Preda...never mind...you get the idea.

And now, some screenshots, also from MKSecrets:

[Eroo]

Honestly from just the screenshots this may be a pretty good game. DC Villains can do fatalities... does that mean Joker can finally kill the Bat? or Lex can slice of Supes head with a kryptonite knife?

[rb]

the game looks good, but the rest did too..we need videos. I think everyone called Flash = Kabal thing beforehand.

[New Era Outlaw]

Another DC character has been revealed in the crossover line-up. Without further ado, heeeeeeere's Catwoman:




...lookin' good! =)

[Crixx_Creww]

how the gonna explain weakening flash? who could for all intents and purposes kill anyone in the MK universe in a blink
