Apparently, they have had to go through many brutalities for Batman, but the one they have chosen has been watered down.

""I figured Bruce Wayne’s cloudy moral compass over the last couple of years in pop culture would open up plenty of options when it comes to putting an opponent out of their misery. Instead, of cracking a necks, curb stomping, or any physical contact whatsoever, Batman finishes his opponents by slipping a sonic emitter around his wobbling foe that summons twenty or thirty bats that swarm. A crippling move, this ain’t.""

Also hint or reveals Deathstrokes fatality also.

Enjoy!

Batman, I am not happy with. Too corny and there is nothing brutal at all about that.

Deathstrokes was predictable but still, might be awesome.

Wow.... major letdown. DC is retarded. Batman did a lot of brutal stuff. he never killed anyone, (he did when he started out), but he broke his fair share of limbs. I really expected a Def Jam style Brutality. It's just fitting for his character. Not this sonic emitter nonsense.

Imagine just how lame that is gonna look. First he pummels his opponents near death, only to walk over and put a stupid device into their belts.

Hell, even Daredevil in the game Marvel Nemesis, broke his opponents neck. Makes me honestly wish that they would've made a crossover with Marvel. They are less touchy about these things. They would've probably allowed Midway to let Captain America decapitate his victims with his shield.

I think they said they would try to put in 2 for each character if they have the time. So 2 Fatalities/Brutalities per character isn't 100% confirmed yet.

How disappointingly predictable. They could have at least done it the way he did it in JLU, which was throwing a couple of batarangs that stuck in the victim's chest and after a "what the hell is this supposed to do" moment, they get swarmed by a ton of bats.

End result is the same, but the execution is a lot better than just sticking a sonic emitter into a belt. But still not a crippling move. *sigh* DC dropped the ball.

Oh wow this sucks.

I'm not a deep Batman fan or anything, but from what I've seen through skimming various media, the only connection he's had to bats is his costume.

Really lame. Damn DC. I was really hoping for Batman to curb-stomp a bitch.

Not too hot on Deathstroke's fatality idea either, but I'm willing to wait until I see it in action before I pass judgement.

BUT I am glad to see that the T rating hasn't ruled out impalement. Gives me some bit of hope for Baraka's fatalities. I really would like to see an impalement IN THE FACE ala Shaolin Monks. grin

WEAK!

I shoulda known they'd go for bats. Wet, weak, and lame. What will DC not even let Batman punch people for a finisher?


As for Deathstroke's fatality, though standard and simple, it sounds brutal and cool.

wow Batman's brutality is fucking stupid as hell..what if the bats have rabies, it'll kill the opponent and therefore he'd have killed someone..unless Batman has bats vaccinated for this kind of thing. Still it's really stupid. Didn't Boon say something about making it dark and gritty? At least Joker's is better.

Deathstroke's possible fatality sounds good. I hope they go with that instead of some random slash with the opponent falling down with no marks at all.

It would be cool if the bats slowly devour the fighter.

I didn't find it predictable, though I do agree with the disappointing part.

LOL. Yeah, the whole reason for him becoming Batman is connected to bats, dude. But at least you admitted you really didn't know. In Batman Begins he has a sonic emitter that sends bats flying all around it. That's where they got this fatality from.

Lets just have everyone's Fatality involve shooting someone in the face. Hopefully people don't catch on to its unpredictability. It's a bit of a let-down to READ it, but I'm willing to wait until I see it in full motion before I make any final judging.

Batman's should have tapped into his Martial Arts master roots and done a lot of brutal looking bone-breaking non-lethal throws and strikes.
Like one of King's chain-throws from Tekken.

A flock of bats isn't the most spectacular finisher around, but it's nice the heroes won't be reduced to combo finishers.

That must have been a let down for the MK Team knowing that they created a brutal finishing move but to have DC water it down for them.
