none.
it was just something me and a bunch of my high school buddies (and roommates at the time) were doing together. barely got off the ground. i might have an image or two of some of the (very rough) models I was working on.

first off we have to see if i'm in Minority(or better outnumbered?),second i'm talking just because the entire MK VS DC idea sucks and it will kill Midway for God(Kill=Bankruptcy);thirdly i don't see why fans should accept this horrible idea when they can complain and maybe delete this sucking game once for all.
and most important you're NOT a true Mk fan,you don't even know how to play MK2 without free play or very easy difficulty,you don't even spent a single coin ina rcades back in 92-93 and maybe your parents don't let you play M mature rated games.
so actually your opinion is outnumbered here
firstly, yes you
ARE the minority, about 2-1.
secondly, you are stating an OPINION. judging a game (in most cases) is like judging food, it all comes down to your personal taste. There are people who say that the MK franchise, in its entirity, suck. for every game that has ever won a Game of the Year award, theres a clan of gamers out there who think that game is a pile of crap.
Thirdly, you are delusional. Midway doesnt give a flying fuck what you, me, or anybody else thinks. if you got a petition together, and had the signatures to equate to say maybe the entire county of Chicago, than MAYBE they'll pay attention. they arent going to change the game, not when they have allready spent a year+ of development money on it. they are ESPECIALLY not going to waste a year of development investment when their about to go bankrupt. by making a whole new game, thats actually taking a bigger risk because they have spent more time, more money, into the game, which means that in order to make it in the black, let alone a substantial profit, they would have to sell a significant ammount of more copies.
Finally, who the Fuck do you think you are, the reincarnation of Nostradomus? you have a lot of nerve to say shit about me that, not only do you have absolutly no goddamned clue about, but its also completly inaccurate. Do you live in Poway, California? where you in Gaeta, Italy in 91-94 and playing arcade games in the same bowling alley I was? have you seen my gaming collection?
the answers to that, are NO, HELL NO, and FUCK NO.
if you think your so smart, and so great at reading minds, how about going into politics?
This guy has no clue what he is talking about, especially if he thinks more people here dislike this idea than like it.
lastfighter89, do I need to put it in bold and blue for you? I have said this countless times, and it is 100% accurate.
YOU DO NOT DECIDE WHAT AN MK FAN IS, A TRUE MK FAN IS SOMEONE WHO LOVES MORTAL KOMBAT. REGARDLESS ON OPINION AS TO WHICH GAMES THEY LIKE OR DON'T LIKE.
If you disagree with this, you need to go back to the 2nd grade and learn the difference between fact and opinion. You then have to pick up a dictionary and look up the words "true" and "fan"
Win.

lastfighter89 posted: you two guys are killing mk,and that idiot of Ed Boon is following your directions instead of the right direction,alias the way of the old time fanboys that play the game since mk in 1992 and made Midway and Ed boon wealthy.
Mk is famous"famous-famous-famous" popular"popular-popular-popular" for his violence,his comic relief and is joke-gore/splatter finishing moves with "stupid and funny" decapitations,explosions and mutilations.
this elements are the fortune of MK,if you took this awat Mk is fucked hard.
so i don't see why we should have finishing moves..OMG this is MK not Marvel Nemesis or Def Jam icon.
if you want realistical finishing moves play that games,if you want gory fatalities(even tough not realistical) stay with MK.
however just to make things clear..MK does not need childish player that follows the saga from deception or so on.
Midway needs money and for make money(GTA teaches) you have to make scandal,controversial ads and so on.
limiting the violence is the first step to destroy MK
Agreed!! but at least he's attempting to do a spin off of emm, Damn DC is afraid of getting killed so Boon doesn't want to hurt their feelings, im more mad a DC for that than boon.
I've seen this argument before and it is completely incorrect. This decision was mutually agreed upon, it's all about attaining new fan bases. Lets face it, as people get older they lose interest in things they once found amazing. In order to keep things fresh and keep interest high in their products they are lowering the rating to teen to get more people to buy into both franchises. It is a smart and effective marketing ploy and if all goes well it could work out well for DC, Midway, and Mortal Kombat.

actually i believ that the poll as been maden by 12 years old children,so i expect this stupid and immature reaction by you all.
i'm not Nostradamus,but you don't need to be Nostradamus to understand what will going to happens to Midway with this game.
do you really believe that a stupid poll on this site will save midway?
you're pathetic and immature.
DC and MK are great only in their own both separate ways,this is the most painful trth.
but you seems to be too stupid to realize this.
i also wonder why mods didn't even try to stop you,seeing your mild languace,but i don't care.
i really hope that this game will not sell.
remeber:you're the man reason why MK is dead.
thanks.

your belief is inaccure and unsubstantiated. if you could prove that ANY of us are 12 years old, i would love to hear it. Until than, shut your mouth on that subject.
just because you are able to "predict" the verdict of this game, does not mean that you know anything about me, which is where I originally made the reference.
your calling ME immature? at least i'm willilng to
A) concede a point when I know I'm wrong
B) compromise on something
and for the big one
C) willing to accept another persons point of you, given that they display said viewpoint intelligently and politly, NEITHER of which you do.
I think saying that MK or DC are ONLY good in their own universes is not only a bit short minded, but also innacurate. We have seen from things such as the Superman VS Spiderman (which Ed Boon has referenced several times in his interviews) that things can be good, even better, when met with something outside the Norm. You say that its best for them to be seperate because thats what fits your shallow limits as to what makes games "good".
you speak as if you are God, that you know everybody and everything.
calling me stupid is not only Ironic on your part but allmost hypocritical. the true signs of stupidity are in those who do not listen or consider anothers viewpoints.
I'm the reason MK is dead? Really? I have doubts on that considering i never helped make an Mortal Kombat game (though I wish I could at some point in the future). I have about as much influence on what makes this franchise good or not as Ron Paul does.
keep this in mind. Midway has been going broke for the last 2-3 years. if this tanks, the whole company would go under, and than there would NEVER be another Mortal Kombat game.
and the reason why they let my brief swears go, most likely is because in a few posts afterwords I explained that I was not feeling myself and that I had a rough day at work, and your mindless yammering nly increased the stress that I was in.
See? when people actually speak intelligently, and why they feel the ways that they do, they get hooked up in the long run. You should try it one of these days. Sooner the better.

mongolei posted: Come on people. You know it.
I love fatalities but the last games just featured lazy decapitating or exploding ones.
With finishers and super powers they can be more creative und unique.
I hope they include at least two finishers per character.
And I don't want lazy combo like finishers! come on people be creative with magic and powers.
Like Scorpion sending his opponent to hell or shang tsung's soul steal...
Disagree.
"6 Million Ways to DIE"
I just don't think they've had time to experiment enough with them. However, the fatalities that are there in the past weren't that bad. Especially whenever they "revamped" the games. It's the successive games on a similar console platform that wain in creativity.
I hope they're working on MK9(or "the real MK8", however you take it) right now. Giving them a good 4/5 years for something more true to MK than this MKvsDC thing.
I've never liked games that have the cop-out "finishers" for the sake of the lessor ESRB rating. They never adequately satisfy. I think Fight Night is the obvious exception to that rule though, cuz it's something different.
I want really graphic, really violent, visceral, brutal, fatalities from MK. Drop the hammer already MK, this is next gen. DO IT! please..lol

6 million ways to die? lets try maybe 30.
they've had 16 years of experimenting. alot of franchises wind up being substantially different from the original game after that long of a time.
Fight Night is different because its Real, and its true to life. allthough this game will certainly allow some things that are not within the realm of reality, Midway is aiming for a more realistic fighting experience than what we have seen in past games.
the fatalities, especially of later games, have done nothing for me because they were so unbeleivable. yah their really bloody, but their also fake, and even if you dont conciously think, your subconcious knows theres no way for it to really happen. I am willing to sacrifice alot of the blood and gore (considering it was excessive to begin with) for something that, when I see, I actually think it could happen.

1)It's not who "maden" the poll, it's who participates.
2)Do you know of the series "Dead or Alive". It's called that way because Tecmo was going bankrupt, and it was a last ditch effort to save the company. A single fighting game turned the tide, and now Tecmo continues to exist. But it could have easily gone the other way. There was no way of knowing. But they betted on a marketable element (pixelated, Poligonal T&A)and survived. Do you see where I'm going with this? You CAN'T KNOW the outcome. You just can't. Perhaps you can't see beyond your own selfish fan desires...
3)It's not that you think, feel, or even believe this game will fail. As previously stated, you just WANT IT. But why? In an age almost devoid of fighting games, why wish woe on one of the last bastions of one-on-one fighting? And why waste you're time on it, when the dice rolls this fall. Just what WILL you do if this game...I dunno...suceeds?

In the last few games, the Fatalities have been pretty goofy. Remember in MKII when Scorpion did "Toasty"? You burned into a pile of ash and bone and it was awesome. Now when he does it in Shaolin Monks, you get set ablaze and then shortly after, explode. They get rather carried away...
