Mortal Kombat vs. DC (disapointing)

After playing MK: Armaggedon, I was really hoping for something better with the next Midway game. I'm glad I skipped on this one.

Deception was a good game. Armaggedon and their horrible finisher system sucked!

That's exactly what we're saying: DC should have known that a game like that with MK would suck if it was T. Midway should have known that having DC characters would not outweigh their MK appeal if it was a T. And this is all because both parties should have realized that "DC characters don't kill." That's why it was all a bad idea to begin with.

okay


Just because you cant do a killing blow with a DC character, doesn't make the game suck. I'm enjoying it alot. But to each his own.

No, I figured that. That's why I wondered whether the game was getting good reviews for its good engine and fighting mechanics. But either way, it seemed like the idea itself was just goofy.

Graphics are awesome. Game engine is good too. Combos are easy to pull off! It's based on the old Mortal Kombat 2 combo system!

At least rent it. I think you'll like it!

Too bad it's not on Wii, I would have bought it.

they assumed DC would only let it be a Teen rated game

Also I think EA bought the rights for the use of Marvel characters in a videogames. Not sure how accurate that is, I just now some big company has the rights and it ain't Midway. So even if Midway wanted to do a game with Marvel, they can't. Also think that's the reason there's not another Marvel vs. Capcom since Capcom lost the rights.

i heard that Marvel lost the rights but recently regained them (so they are releasing Marvel vs Capcom on 360 and PS3) and that Marvel vs Capcom 3 could be Tastunoko Vs. Capcom, with Marvel replacing the Tatunoko characters

Deception is still their best game to date... Konquest mode is awesome!

Yeah, DC is hardly kid-friendly either..

Well it seemed too odd a teamup to work in the first place anyway.

It has Scorpion and Batman... good enough.
