Batman is grim and moody and lives in a cave, nerds are grim and moody and live in mom's basement, Batman automatically wins all fights.

I suppose that lightsabers in SC4 are more balanced than Superman, huh?

Don't discuss this kind of crap because it really makes you look like a nerd.Just play it.

PS:Saying that I have no intention of buying this game either, but I don't really like either franchise.

@Jakka:

1. Did I defend SC4?

2. "Don't discuss this kind of crap because it really makes you look like a nerd." said the guy who's commenting on a video game blog. Everyone who reads Joystiq regularly is a nerd.

you should watch the latest GTtv episode, they talked about MKvcDC and explained of the story...and also, they talk about Superman

Depends on what Era Superman. The original superman couldn't fly, didn't have ice-breath, X-Ray vision, and all that bull. He could jump really high, was really strong, he could run really fast, and couldn't be damaged by anything short of an artillery shell.

I think Cyrax had a fatality that blew up the planet. ... I think that is way past an artillery shell.

Conversely, modern superman is near indestructible, but now Kryptonite is as common as soda, and in as many varieties. I'm pretty sure there is a Paisley Kryptonite that will remove his cheapness.

@ Chris

You never mentioned SC4 but it was an example of the kind of crap that fighting games give you.

With out even watching the GTtv thing I am betting they are going to say Magic is why anybody in MK can even possibly attack superman. I am sorry but I think capcom did it better when they added infinite gems and such.

The problem with any DC fan is DC comic heroes their powers are basically god like. Even Batman to an extent is some sort of Demi god when it comes to his ability. No matter how I try to ignore the fact that is superman, I just can't get past somebody like the flash not being able to just speed of heat through somebody.

Yes I am a geek, but I doubt this game was being aimed at people who are new to Mk or DC, so just saying "Stop being a geek and play the game" isn't going to be enough for a lot of the people thinking about picking it up.

Also >_> ahem

Well well, the DOUCHES are out in droves this morning... great!

Superman is awesome. Batman is awesome. You don't wanna play / buy the game or better yet... UNDERSTAND why this is being made, go fumble around in another post that doesn't discuss this... ... douches.

The BIGGEST problem with past Mortal Kombats is the SHALLOW GAMEPLAY with focus on REMEMBERING TO PULL OF THE VARIOUS FINISHERS.

Hopefully this will be different because I WANT TO KICK EVERYONES ASS AS SUPERMAN... straight up.

Whine else where's douches and let us alone so WE can fight Scorpion vs. Superman... your doucheness isn't required HERE.

Thank you,
D

"Don't discuss this kind of crap because it really makes you look like a nerd.Just play it."

Yeah, you can't say that. Just by being here you're a self-professed nerd.

@D Dogg

We're having a discussion concerning this post. If anyone here is a douche it's the guy trying to start shit by elbowing his way into a conversation simply because he had his feelings hurt because he likes the game being discussed and the discussion is somewhat criticizing said game.

Grow up asshat.

I'm not moody

Everything was great and you seemed very "responsible" and "intelligent" in your post... you know, regarding your discussion...

And then you called me an "asshat". Is this the point where I say "You fail"?

No matter what your response is or what I am, YOU'RE still a douche... nothing will change that. Once a douche, always a douche... is that vinegar I smell??

Is that why everyone else is voting me up, and you're being voted down?

You called me a douche because I had an opinion that you disagreed w/ and I was discussing that opinion w/ other people. You stepped in the conversation, waved your arms and said "Hey, stop arguing! DOUCHE DOUCHE DOUCHE! No one can make fun of this game because I want to play as Superman against Scorpion!" So I called you an asshat.

Now apparently I'm a douche for a new reason: because I called you out for being an asshat?

Again, grow up.

If this makes you all feel better I think all of you are jerks.

J/K.

Chris, are you aware you are trying to apply logic in the internet let alone to Superman? He gets his powers from the Earth's Sun WTF?

MK after Trilogy went downhill, and then Deception picked up the series to the semi-awesome level of the first MK games so Armageddon could deliver the final kick in the balls to every MK fan. At this point MK games are rental material but I’m still curious about how can Sub-zero deliver a punch to Superman without breaking his knuckles.

@Mr. ESC

Damn you and your sparkling observations.

agreed. That Gametrailers vid w/ the interview convinced me. I'm probably going to pick up this game now in November when it's out.

Because someone did.The character get bruised and clothing gets ripped in this game.

It exists because there are people that don't really give a hoot about franchises and fanaticism, and will buy this game just for the pleasure of beating the crap out of superman.

It's because no one had bothered to rip-off Marvel vs. Capcom yet - and everything Capcom makes must be poorly imitated as many times as possible.

And how is it a rip-off? Because it's a cross-over? Please. Do both games share similar premises. Yes. But is MK vs. DC a rip-off? Absolutely not. They're two completely different games.

Fun fact: DC does not make games, and since they were bought, neither do they pull any plugs that arn't montly comics.

I like how they released a screenshot with Supes' cape coming through his chest. Nice pop-in/tearing/whatever it's called. If that's in their promotional materials, this game might wind up looking terrible.

are you talking about this picture?

http://www.xbox360fanboy.com/photos/mortal-kombat-vs-dc-universe-1/902528/

if so, that isn't going through his chest...the cape is around his left side...

Looks like it's going through his chest to me. If you follow it up, it stops just below his sternum on his right side.

Yeah, that's definitely going up through his torso

And through his leg, i think, further down

Looks very similar to the previous 3D games. Might be bad for a lot of people, but I had a lot of fun with Deception, and if it plays anything like that, I'll be satisfied.

I'm not expecting Soul Calibur or Tekken from Midway. No one should.

That was Shang T'sung? I'd have never guessed.


...I just better be able to beat the crap out of Sindel with Starfire, though.

It was all just part of my plan

Marvel Vs Pokemon hehe

The Pokemon would win!

I actually think that's a scratch and they used the same color red for both the blood and the cape.
