Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe Gets Dated

Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe Gets Dated
Written Tuesday, October 14, 2008 by James Parkin

Good news for all you itching to battle Superman and The Joker, Midway has just sent word that Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe has a release date!

Midway is expecting Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe to be on store shelves and available for purchase throughout North America on November 16th, and Europe on November 21st.

Are you ready?!

*Editor's Note: Before anyone says anything, we know the 16th is a Sunday, and games are rarely released on Sundays, but we're just following what we've been told.

Bad choice in release....Too many good games coming out E.G. GOW2 FALLOUT 3 and FABLE 2 among many others should hurt sales for this game....

why would it hurt sales? Mk has a large fan base and even though most of u here will jump to say u wont get it cause its Teen, ur not the majority of the fan base, many are still getting it many r too loyal and many love DC Universe

November is a great month, however I do not know exactly how this game will fair with all the other releases in that month, primarily Gears 2. I know I won't be getting it but I'll hope for the best in any case.

Don't know if i'll get this as it is at the bottom of my wants this comming month. So much better stuff coming out. Gears 2, Fable 2, GH4 i could go on. I love MK but have no hype for this game at all.

I suppose even with the big releases im sure once the hype has subsided for gears and fallout then gamers might look elsewhere.

I for one will be getting GOW 2 but thats not to say i wont be picking up this and mirrors edge before or at christmas time.

I'll buy this next month and my brother probably buys GOW2, way to go!

Do you guys think it was wise for MK to team up with DC? I mean this could either be a great game(lets be honest, how many fighting games have featured Batman AND the Joker) or it could ruin both franchises from the odd combination of characters.
Then again I thought Star Wars was a dumb idea for Soul Caliber because it didnt make sense but people(especially Star Wars fanatics) took to that like stink on shit so whos to say? Please feedback on this....

This is a ploy by Midway because they're broke. They're hoping all the die-hard MK fans will buy this game and save their company. I'm one of those die-hard fans, I own every MK game released, but I wont be buying this one. It's pretty garbage. Stripped down to solely a fighting game, a bunch of online achievements, and a T rating.
I hope Midway burns for this farce.

I was pretty sure this game was going to be garbage, but then I saw this video...

Granted, it doesn't make it 100% awesome, but it looks like it might be some fun at least to see the fatalities offered by the DC universe
