Uh oookay....

Looks like a noob made the website too

.............

Can't wait to see what Sub-Zero and Scorpion look like in next gen graphics...assuming they'll be in this one. Hopefully they can turn this series around and make the fighting a little more smooth then it has been in the past.

You spelled combat wrong

That's a joke right?

lol, yes. I get what he was doing Kombat... Kountdown :D

... ??? ...

I really like the Mortal Kombat games and have 'em all up to this point. I want to see what the graphics and controls are like on a next gen gaming consoles.

See adding info like this helps people understand what your talking about.

Ed Boon said that they were going to start completely fresh for the first next-gen MK game. However, this was way back when the last MK game came out for PS2, so things maybe have changed by now.

Ya, I remember hearing that too, thus the whole Armageddon thing...I've also heard though that he considers Sub-Zero and Scorpion like the Ryu and Ken's of the games, so he probably wouldn't move on without them.

:lol:Ok, just making sure haha.

Dork. This Noob was around a lot longer than the stupid internet term.

That doesn't change that it's one of the dumbest character names ever.

The word "rape" has R-A-P in it, but you don't see Hip-Hop fans running around talking about how great rape is.

"get the hell outta the cockpit!"

"hehe...you said -"

Why the f*ck does this idiot kid replace all of his posts with "..." after awhile?

Anyways, there's a Midway event going down in Vegas tonight and tomorrow, and it seems like news on the new MK game may have leaked out via GamesRadar and it's apparently....a Mortal Kombat vs DC Comics game? It's not confirmed, but that is the news right now, Jeff over and Giant Bomb seems to be in a little shock, but don't be completely surprised if this turns out to be some terrible truth.

If it is...f*cking awful.

I predict Midway gets bought out before September.

#1. It's a rumour

#2. No need to call him an idiot...Sometimes I think everyone on this message board should just log out, smoke a blunt, and log back in and continue to chat.

Rumor is that the game is to contain little-to-no blood and no fatalities.

What the flying fu*k is the point then? DC wanting to get a T rating for the kiddies? Mortal Kombat was already a joke to begin with, but now it's a farce.

Please die Midway.

Mortal Kombat Vs. DC Universe is not a rumor. It's confirmed. Unless it's Midway pulling the prank, which I doubt. The URL given on the teaser image with Sub-Zero and Batman, worldscollide.com, has a Midway DNS Record.

So this is the poor man's Marvel vs. Capcom.

#1. Confirmed

#2. He is an idiot, and you're super cool now for talking about blunts. We're all very impressed.

I dont know if weed is supposed to make you "cool" It's a shame you have that image of it...I think I grew out of that in middle school. Anyways the point is, relax.

Regarding the rumour....Go to the gamespot Mortal Kombat Armageddon boards...Ed Boon is a member there, and I know that sounds really sketchy, but the guys been answering pretty detailed and convincing questions for a couple months...He has confirmed it's a rumour...I'm pretty sure it is guys. Mortal Kombat would'nt go teen...OR...would they....

....Blunt.

So after trying to point out to a bunch of yokels on MK fansites that worldscollide.com is owned by Midway... I wake up this morning to find it resolves to an MKvDCU site. See, that's what these kids that are most likely too young to have legally ever played Mortal Kombat get for not believing The S.

Anyway, it looks okay from the trailer. I've seen it about eight times since it first popped up across the internet. If it plays better than Armageddon, though, I'm all for it!

Ya, I have no complaints. I think this could be fun. You guy's should watch the video interview with Ed Boon on gamespot. Everything he says is sounding pretty neat.

Mortal Kombat + DC's B grade characters + T rating - Fatalities = Fail

It's exactly like TheCure said to me over MSN last night. The B version of fighting game series, and comic books got together because they were jealous of Capcom and Marvel.

How do you know its dc's B grade characters, when all they've announced is Batman and Superman?

Also, in my opinion fatalities aren't required for fun gameplay...I never did them anyways. I know it's strange seeing as it is pretty trademark, but I'll take a fun game over a silly little combo string to see someones arm get torn off any day.

I didn't say DC's B characters, I meant that DC in GENERAL has B characters, beyond Batman and Superman, let's not kid ourselves. And...seriously...if you think Mortal Kombat was good without the ridiculous moves and insane amount of match ending fatalities, you need to play more fighting games.

I don't think it was that good in general... I just grew up on it and love the characters and the universe for some reason. That's why I'm excited for this new direction, it might actually be pretty fun to play for the first time since the 2d days.

Well this just knocked me on my ass, since nobody's bothered to change the subject title and inform the world of what's going on. Otherwise I might have come in here for a reason other than to get a stupid Mortal Kombat thread to stop showing up as new. You really couldn't even make this up it's so ridiculous.

Now, at the risk of having this spill over into a flat out comic book discussion, DC has some of the most iconic, if not best comic characters period. I don't prefer it to Marvel or the other way around though, because I feel like both publishers do a great job of having a certain aura around their respective heroes and universes that almost kinda makes them like apples and oranges to me. If you like one, I don't feel like there's any reason you should avoid the other because you can get a totally different yet equally enjoyable experience from reading Spider-man than you could from reading say Nightwing, who's a very similar character in certain ways, or any other combination you can think of, just because Marvel and DC both have their own unique styles and approaches to how they tell stories.

I wouldn't call any of the DC characters aside from Batman and Superman iconic, honestly.

The Flash, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman... Some of the oldest and more Iconic Comic characters right there.

Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, The Flash, Green Arrow, Doctor Manhattan,... Probably some of the best comic characters I can think of. But I have always been a DC-man.

::edit::
Lol, beaten by GK.

Listen, I know all of these characters. What I'm saying is that I don't think most non-comic fans do, as opposed to Spider-Man, Wolverine, the Hulk etc..

9 chances out of 10, if you were to bring up characters like The Flash or Green Lantern in normal conversation, no one would know what the f*ck you were talking about.

You guys can like DC all you want, but face the truth that beyond Batman and Superman, no one knows, and even fewer care, about a ton of DC characters.

I disagree, I've known several non comic fans that know those characters. They've even referenced them on Seinfeld. The Flash was one of the most popular comics of the 1960s and helped bring Super Heros back in to popularity. It has nothing to do with which comic company I prefer, In fact I *hate* comic fans that "ZOMG DC SUCKS!" "ZOMG MARVEL SUCKS!" fan boys like that irritate me.
