    Yay, could be good. Make it at least four player online, and you have a sale.

    pap-a-liscious

  • Lukus #6 4 years ago

    ... It's the Adam West Batman? Haha.

  • Razorus #7 4 years ago

    Probably gonna suck, but otherwise, cool concept. Might be great. Let's wait and see....

  • The-Bodybuilder #8 4 years ago

    That looks so.........ghey.
    No wonder MK has always been one step behind SF. Do they really think this can stand up to the might that is SF vs Marvel?

  • Triggerhappytel #9 4 years ago

    @ Lukus - actually, it's the comic book Batman. To my knowledge, he's always had the grey outfit with the darker pants, unlike the movie outfits which are pretty much all black.

    It would be awesome to literally have the Adam West Batman, though. He could fire out Family Guy-esque retorts and have a '60s 'POW' every time he hits someone.

    Anyway, on topic, this smells like a desperate effort to make people care about MK again. It looks pretty shite (it is Midway!), but will probably sell quite a lot if they market it right.

    Am I alone in thinking the 3D mortal kombat game on the old xbox was pretty good? I remember it getting played a lot more than DOA3 in my old uni house

  • Rodney #11 4 years ago

    Just looked it up, it was Deadly Alliance. I really enjoyed that one.

    And yes, the 60's Batman with Adam West doing the voice work complete with 'kapows' cartoon speach bubbles would be awesome!

    @Rodney
    I doubt you're alone in liking Deadly Alliance and its sequel Deception, but they simply weren't good fighting games. They showed brief flashes of the Mortal Kombat style which won people over originally, but the actual fighting engine was stiff, unresponsive and completely dependent on dial-a-combos.

  • anomagnus #13 4 years ago

    what madman signed of on this?

  • Gnort #14 4 years ago

    When Boon & Co announced that they were working on a new Mortal Kombat game with a completely new engine and they weren't going to limit themselves to normal fighting game conventions, I had a glimmer of hope (it would probably still suck, but at least they'd try something).

    However, the vs DC Universe thing seems like a desperate attempt to cash in on an established comic brand and the fading popularity of the Mortal Kombat series, and, worse yet, the few in-game clips in the trailer clearly imply they're just trying to buff up the Deadly Alliance/Deception engine, which was already dead and cold by the time they were flogging it for MK: Armageddon.

    I was hoping for a completely revamped look of a first "this-gen" MK (with fewer but hi-detailed, more serious looking, balanced characters) and now this:( It looks like a PS2 port to X360/PS3. A PG-13 version of MK.

    Great. Made to nerf Superman in a game again.
