Hold up after watching the video with ed noob...I mean ed boon he said it was Dc idea who called them up about the idea.....if this is the case dc should let boon do whatever he wants with the dc characters.....if they knew mk is a gore action game...why even mention to make a crossover...ed boon man up for your fans and tell them..."Unless this new idea won't have fatalities and such this game will not sell as well as the recent mk games."

How will this game do worse? The DC fanboys will flock in like moths to a flame. And then after this game is done, the original MK fans will come back to see MK9. So Ed Boon and DC gets their cash, while Ed makes his dream of a crossover come true.

Are you SURE your old enough to drive....I've never heard of someone mature enough to drive BRAG about driving.

And judging by your sig....I'm guessing your about....12,13?

Also, you type like a little kid...so, are you SURE your old enough to drive?

It has the possibility either way.

1. DC fans come in...Mkfans leave

2. Everybody sticks around and actually buys the game for 60-70$

3. Nobody likes the iteration and the project fails.

And of course there are variations of all of those.

I really don't have my full thoughts on the idea either,I'm not angry at all;just slightly curious.The whole idea of a "crossover" just seems a little vague,I'll just have to see the final version.

I can say that I'm excited,but I guess we'll have to wait until E3 for more coverage.I really do enjoy DC to some extent,but personally,I find their characters to be a bit...boring?They just don't seem to have the thought and depth,as to the Marvel characters.Everyone is entitled to their personal opinion.

Anyone else?

Well, I'm guessing about Half of each fanbase buys the game.

So say there is 10 million DC fans and 3 Million MK fans.

That means 7.5 million People buy the game.

That is 2.5 as many games as they usually sell.

But, these aren't exact numbers...this is just a guess...I could be off by several million on both.

Don't Taser me Bro!

But seriously...if you don't like the game, leave. Go drive, do something.

I get what your saying about a slap in the face...but there are other games beside MK.

You're missing something....

Each core fan base is extremely critical of it's universe. Right now, I'm inclined to believe that everybody is skeptical of the project...which is NOT good for business. But is also not the determining factor at this point.

As the seller of houses or cars, you don't need your client base "IFY" at any point in time...You'd want your customers to mindlessly buy from you. You don't want them "thinking about it"..lol

I've been playing since 92 and i don't feel like its a slap in the face. And it wasn't the blood that drew me in, the mk i had was for the nes was blood free, it was the characters. it wasn't until MK2 that i discovered the blood aspect.

Just the fact that you're parading your age around like a badge pretty much proves you're a whiney little 14 year old.

The sad truth is, Boon probably doesn't care what us older fans like. He is trying to bring in a new generation of fans.

Expect a complete makeover of MK on every Next-gen console for now on. Boon said every new system, he's wiping the slate clean.

Of course, this could just mean fighting mechanincs, engine, etc.

I don't think so at all. Boon expected us all to be shocked and angry at first and then come around when we see how "awesome" the game is. I hope he delivers...

I just don't understand how he went from pushing and working so hard to get his MK 1 game out and he had such trouble because it was M and now after all these years he gave up his rep and let it be a T.... why not done that before? because it wouldn't last all these years? so why put it up now?

I'm pretty sure Boon said this in one of the interviews. I think the TRMK one, could be the MKO one.

Might've been the Midway Presentation.
