MK vs DC: A Last Resort? (No complaining here.)
I've been thinking about what Ed Boon said about always wanting to have an "MK vs" game, and I realized something...
DC Comics was all he had to go for.
Think about it:
He couldn't use Street Fighter because, like he said, it driven them into a road block.
He couldn't use Tekken because, having Tekken games being exclusively for PS systems, it would prevent the game from being on Xbox 360 or Nintendo Wii.
He couldn't use Soul Calibur because that would take away from the Hand to Hand combat (in which I never understood why Heihachi was ever in Soul Calibur 2).
He couldn't use DOA because of the degree of realistic and mythological settings that separate MK and DOA.
And he couldn't use Marvel Comics because Capcom beat him to the punch.
DC Comics was all Boon had to go for. Everything else just wasn't available. I know you all may not seem to understand it now, but as you continue to think about it, you'll get it.

Anyhoo, maybe you guys should just think about it.
I'm not telling you to hate the game. Besides, MKArmageddon was a last resort too, and I love that game... kinda.

That's not "bitching"....You didn't read it did you? You just followed suit.

Seems like that's exactly what happened. It was also the biggest "shock-er".
DC is commonly under estimated so, a blend like this would create a big uproar..aka "Get alot of attention".
I just hope the gameplay is as fun as they're confidence seems to be about it. Almost everything else fails about the venture imo.

He couldn't use other successful franchises in the gaming industry because none of the series with noteriety and bouyant sales would want to jeopardize their success.

That's another possible explaination.
That would also further the point of DC Comics being a last resort.

You know, what was really smart about the move, is that Batman's got alot of momentum right now too.
He's got the movie coming, an anime, few cartoons and the comics..
Superman's got good momentum too. What with Smallvile, cartoon, that last movie, and the comics as well.
They(DC) could've been looking at it like, why not let the other popular DC characters get in on the action.
So it wasn't an ill thought out move for either side.
