Personally I think so... I much perfer Doomsday.

At first, I thought that Doomsday might be a little too powerful for the MK side. Considering he managed to kill the man of steel. But hey, MK has dealt with Onaga. And Doomsday can't be much worse than him.

Some people are saying that Doomsday is going to be a sub-boss... I think that's completely rediculous. From what I have seen and currently know about the two, Doomsday seems far superior. Those omega beam things that Darkseid has... they were powerless against Doomsday. And i heard they are supposed to destroy anything.

I'd think that Doomsday is clearly a superior choice... but Darkseid isn't that bad then again. There are much worse choices out there afterall

So yeah, any opinions on this? Who agrees/disagrees that Doomsday should have been final boss?

Hell no. Doomsday is nothing more than the big guy that kills things. He isn't good for anything else. He hasn't much of a purpose and his personality is practically non-existend.

Should he have been an additional character? Maybe, maybe not. But in the place of Darkseid? Hell freaking no.

Heck, someone like Lobo should be in this before Doomsday is even being considered. He can traid blows with Superman as well. Is practically immortal because hell and heaven kicked him out. He's a bounty hunter with a mean attitude, heavy metal fan, womanizer and his blood thirstiness makes the whole MK universe look like a bunch of pansies.

Hey, it works in Street Fighter. I'm actually glad that Darkseid is playable.

I think doomsday should be in the game, but i don't think he should have gotten in before darkseid. But i think some of us do forget that theres a big difference between comic books and video games, all of you that say that doomsday would be too powerful please just chill out, and stop taking it all so seriously. Also, i agree with whoever wants lobo in the game, that would have been a good call.

Darkseid's loss to Doomsday was a pathetically written comic to make Doomsday look like a threat again. A REAL fight with Darkseid would have removed Doomsday from existence, and there would be no Doomsday. Darkseid is a god, and not just any god, but the Skyfather of Apokolips (aka, head god). He was created by the legendary Jack Kirby, in a far superior story to Death of Superman, years earlier. During the time, he was even stronger than Silver Age Superman, who makes the current one look pathetic by far. But, years of bad writing have made him into a less team wrecking threat, and into a Superman baddie. Then again, Final Crisis is really bringing Darkseid back up to glorious heights of powers and fear. That, and they retconned every previous fight with Darkseid to be an avatar, a shadow of his power from the Fourth World, greatly weaker than his normal self.

I'm not too comic-savvy but all Doomsday ever did was try to kill Superman. He's not a conqueror or a good parallel for Shao Kahn.

Exactly. Darkseid is a powerful, conquorer/ruler. A good Parallel for Shao Kahn. He's also got that god status, like Shinnok, but he didn't get his ass curb-stomped to the Netherrealm, like Raiden did to him. lol

When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, and he looks you crooked in the eye and he asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yes sir, the check is in the mail."

Jack Burton says NO.

Darkseid deserves to be in this game. To have Doomsday in this game over Darkseid would be a wrong move in my opinion. I wouldn't mind seeing Doomsday as some DLC or something, but in place of Darkseid...NO!

I don't think Darkseid and Shao Kahn are the bosses. It did mention the merged conqueror on worldscollide.com, and the achievements have a "Dark Kahn" achievement. So, I imagine that's the boss.

Hell no, Doomsday isn't a character he's a plot device, he's sucks and he's pretty much the leagues punching bag these days. He's also too stupid to be Khan's counterpart. Darksied on the other hand a ruler and a conqueror who's both very intelligent and extremely powerful and he has even used Doomsday as his minion......hell, Luthor has manipulated Doomsday too.

Technically, He isn't the final boss he's just one half of the final boss.The final boss itself isn't playable.

The father of Darkseid has the last name Kahn. I imagine this will tie into the merge of MK and DC. Therefore, Darkseid is an important character to the game. Doomsday is a cool bad guy, but not a great tie in.
Oh yeah, LOBO is badass! He should've made the cut. He fits in perfect. Bastiches!grin

Insignificant grunt famous for one moment in 1993; or supreme master villain, bane of the DCU, and icon of evil scheming? Hmm... Tough call!
