Daft, lightweight, retro scrapper lifts gloom on a dark knight

Nov 17, 2008

When you consider Scorpion’s penchant for peeling the skin off his victims’ faces and Superman’s long history of do-gooding, Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe isn’t such an obvious pairing – less a deadly alliance than it is a marriage of unlikely convenience – but the contrived set-up does create some undeniably daft, grin-making matchups.

Man this game totally SUCKS dude I mean come on how exatly do you make a G rated mortal combat game. There's no blood, no guts, and most importantly, no F***ing fatilties I thought this was finely the time I get to kill Superman and rip his bleeding heart out. but no you didn't put any fatilties just so you can make it more kid approved. Screw this this by far the worst mortal combat game ever!!!!!!!

B4REAL, Make a short movie w/ more fighting, An U might profit 50 2 a couple of thousand dollars. A video game of Titains v/s the Gods on GOD OF WAR 2 would have been more acceptable or expected, DUDE there is a recession going on. STOP trying 2 get us 2 "BAIL" u out w/ this lame and I hope that everyone agrees weak #@*!?%. SORRY PLEASE CALL AGAIN!
