My name is Matt silver and i have a few questions:

Is it true fatalitys are out of the game?

are DC villians in it and if so, who?

when do we get a better trailer that shows more?

can you leave out aquaman and green arrow, please?









I can answer your First Question. Fatalities won't be in the game. There will be Finishers however to replace the Fatalities. DC did not want their property killing or being killed.

Is it true what DC Comic Reps are saying that these DC characters are in the game:

Robin, Wonder Woman, Flash, Green Lantern, Black Canary, Hawkman and Powergirl?

I think that that would go over 20 it would mean that 22 fighters for each side YAY

Hi Midway! It's me, Daniel Clark, the Ultimate MK fan! So excited about this project and major kudos to you and the folks at DC Comics for making it possible!

Now then, a question I have for you is being that this new Mortal Kombat game involves DC Comics, are there any plans to make a comic book series based on MK vs DC the game? If so, how will it relate to the game itself? (i.e. will it be a prequel, side-story, alternate telling, etc.)

Thanks and have a flawless day!

Will there be downloadable content for the game in the future?

Is it possible that MK vs DC got the idea for this game because of Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter?

Bit of a coincidence?

Either way, Game is looking awesome, and the graphics kick ass!

I can't wait for this one.

If it is 11 for each side I think we'll get two DC villians, and some more MK characters.

I 2nd your question.

Will Shang Tsung be in the game? If so, will he be able to morph? Also, if he is in it, will he be old or young. The old Shang Tsung has never been playable. I would like to see it for once. The old one has a much darker, sinister look to him.

there was a discussion on this earlier in the week, and it was (more or less) agreed that the only way that the morph ability could work with the ammount of information that would need to be loaded, is to morph into the opponent you are facing.

this was addressed in an interview, and the answer is NO.
big way you can tell is that the two games are going to behave look and behave so differently, that one would be insane to call it a copycat.

If anything, I think this is Ed living out one of his dork childhood dreams, as he mentioned that he remembers reading Superman vs Spiderman as a kid, and loved it (and that he still has the copy in his office to this day) and that such an unbelievable, unexpected pairing, could be at the same bring alot of excitement.

We all know what exactly made MK a famous fighting game. From what I've seen in Boon's interview this game will combine both DC and MK factions in an all around standard fighting game. This means that the game won't have fatalities, blood or other gore things. Like the MK Armageddon stripped the characters of their specific fatalities this one is going to be even farther away from the MK's origins.

My questions:

1. How do you think and with what special feature will you guys bring us closer to this game?
2. Why not maintaing the mature side of the MK?

Personally I say that Midway is a great developer, but chosing to turn MK into an 10 year old boys game its just not right.

We all know that MK3 Ultimate (the best in my opinion) was rated M.
