His alternated better be these:

I'd prefer this one.

Wtf! Jus stfu and stop moaning like a b*tch! Das all u do!

Let me touch on something here, If that is an in-game render, than I'll have to reconsider my opinion on this(Even though I still wouldn't think its that great). Midway should just come out with weather or not this is in-game.

If its not in-game, than lets see some renders that aren't. That would be nice.

I don't know if this is in game, but my guess is that this isn't ingame. When I look at the bat vs. sub render and then some freeze images from the trailer..you can mos def see a difference.

In This months X-Box Mag, they claim that the Sub-Batman render is in-game (or something to that effect) so this one could be too.

Lets face it or at least i am this game is heading for the toilet i know i am quick to judge but i know its gonna be crap.

The graphics may be good ok, Gameplay etc but its superman for fucks sake and batman? i for one dont want these people in a mortal kombat game if i did i would create them in KAF or something! (this is what the superman picture looks like to me)

No Fatalities ok there is gonna be something but guarenteed it will be toned down ( Remeber mk1 snes anyone?....)

People will switch off real fast even MK Fans...

If they dont do something extra ordinary in this game it could and i think is anyway gonna kill the MK Franchise....

Ed Boon i hope u know what the hell you are doing i really do

I guess were have to wait and see

Wow...it really is great {sarcasm} look, it's Superman there isn't really much they can do with that suit. The hair could be better but it's just a render so maybe they'll work that out.

i love it. i cant believe some folks hate this

Nathan's alternate idea is a good one.

i want some new info though.

i never understood why the MK team likes to take forever in letting us know which characters will be in the game.

Blood and gore should only be there as a compliment to excellent gameplay (which this franchise is lacking) not as a focal point. If this is a solid fighting game, then it could possibly be the best MK yet.

Nergal should be in Mortal Kombat. He fits better than most of those guys. I just thought I'd throw that out there after taking a look at your signature Deathbearer.

XD lol. yeah Nergal would be the shit in MK. He'd be like "AT THE LEFT HAND OV KAHN!!" and then smack someone into a spike pit and his weapon could be his guitar...one can only dream.

Haha yeah... it's a real shame

ED BOON : " We want Mortal Kombat to be darker and grittier " .....

Bang up job their Ed. The Baby Blue, Fruity Yellow and bright red instantly make me feel emo ........

Haha yeah I know! They should of toned him down or atleast tone him down in the MK universe. Like a dark blue dark red and dark yellow. But in his world make him kinda bright. That render is over the fuckin top bright.

Plus whoever designed Superman is a fuckin idiot. His look is retarded. Atleast Marvel has some imagination. Not just. "Ok lets add a tight t-shirt, tight pants, a barrel chest, and some underwear to go on the outside"

{sigh} instead of this fuckin idea just have MK vs Death/Black metal bands...that would be fun...

I just pictured Jarek vs Burzum. Two jackoffs facing each other.

But yeah, even that would be more appealing than the DC cast of misfits and obviously demented characters.

hell just shrink the MK characters and they can take on the puppets from Puppet Master. At least we'd have fatalities..that and I love Puppet Master, that'd just be fun to see

puppet master vs demonic toys was a weird and sorta funny movie.

But how funny would it be seeing one of them in a MK game lol?

You know lets wait until we see some gameplay from E3 or a longer offical trailer.I know we can all voice our opinions from what we seen so far but really what we have seen is probably not much of what the actual game or in game gamplay will look like.But who knows.Just saying,dont get pissed off over nothing but I do atleast think they should tell us who all is gonna be in the game and stop trying to hide it.Its not like its going to ruin anything.

Wow... that's uh. yea.. um.. fucking BRILLIANT! I want it now!

yeah PM vs DT was pretty funny. I love when Baby Oopsie Daisy launches himself into the guy's neck XD the movie itself had so much potential...it wasn't bad but it wasn't good..oh well.

yeah Death/Black Metal bands would be a great gimmick. they're dark and brutal, MK should be dark and brutal. perfect match.

Exactly, it’s beyond me why we don’t know yet. Every other fighting series has revealed there’s.

That’s actually the only thing I want to know.

E3 is a fucking long wait just for that.

thats because every other fighting series has the same characters repeated over and over again...

mk is fun not to tell us..and it gives everyone good time to talk about who they want to see in it...

MK doesn't reveal their characters because their games have no replay value and secrecy is their only hook.

Part of the reason most fighting games include all their previous characters and expand upon their roster is because the vast majority of those characters are well-liked by the fans. Rarely do people have the same favorite character in Soul Calibur (I play as Seigfried, my roommate plays as Nightmare, my neighbor plays as Taki, two of my friends play as Misturugi and Raphael respectively) or even Tekken. Mortal Kombat's overbloated cast is mostly filler. I doubt too many people are particularly fond of Meat, Mokap, Jarek, Hsu Hao, Dairou, Kobra, or Darrius. Nothing about them was particularly memorable or deep, so what point would there be in keeping them if they're only going to take up time and space better devoted to characters we do care about?

MK has some classic characters. Reptile, Mileena, Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Shao Kahn, Kitana, Baraka, and more, but there have been very few "great" characters since about the MK3 days (some exceptions, mind you), while other fighting games newcomers eager anticipate new faces. I can tell you right now I'm more hyped to play as Hilde in Soul Calibur IV than I am any announced or unannounced character in MK vs. DCU, because it's pretty much a given that none of the characters will be truly "new". I'd rather play as Crimson Viper in Street Fighter IV than someone I'm already familiar with. But I'm a big fan of most of the other casts, while MK's cast has become homogenous. They look the same, they sound the same, the fight the same... sure, their moves are different, and they wear different outfits, but there's hardly as much variety in MK as there is in other fighting games, though to be fair MK has done a lot to rectify that.

I just would have prefered some "new" characters, which Boon and the others mislead most of us into thinking was going to happen with MK8. We were expecting completely new characters with new stories never before seen. Superman? Who doesn't know his story as the last son of Krypton raised on earth? There's no surprises there. How much character development can you glean from a franchise that ultimately has little-to-nothing to do with a video game, let alone the MK world? Will DC comics suddenly begin referencing Liu Kang and Outworld during there next big comic event? I doubt it. This story might have some bearing on the MK realm, but this hardly is going to impact the mainstream DC Universe in the slightest.

And for that very reason, we'd like to see a more complete list of the characters because, quite frankly, there's absolutely no threat that any of them, hero or villain, aren't going to come out of this game alive. Where-as in every MK game, there was the risk of death, for every character, Kitana, Sub-Zero, Liu Kang, etc., that's been excluded. Batman won't die in this game. Superman won't die in this game. There's no pressure, nothing big at stake here, because we know the outcome.

So I still feel scammed that the four most obvious members of the roster have been announced.... and nothing more.

(eventually, I'm going to burn out on complaining.... but thankfully I still have justifiable things to complain about.)
