To me, thats clearly Batman vs. Scorpion. But, we'll see tmr night.

 

[Tiduz]

Im scared.

I cant believe i cant wait to see the mk game, i didnt even care but now that its close im thinking what if its good? Ill look like a dick in front of my brother, hes been asking me and is hyped about 6 months for this game and everytime i laughed at him :lol

 

[Russian Steve]

Honestly the only thing that excites me about this game is the fact that it's Unreal Engine 3 being used for a fighting game. I mean it beats another generic shooter, right?. I'm curious to see how it turns out.

This isn't to say I might not check it out anyway, I love fighting games but I haven't dug MK since III. MK4? was it? On 64. That was kind of entertaining at the time, but then again I didn't own it, maybe it was just the "nothing taste better than a free meal" effect taking hold. :lol

 

[Father_Brain]

Is that a typo? Midnight PDT isn't for another three hours and 40 minutes.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm ready to test my might on a meat cube!

 

[Tiduz]

:lol :lol :lol

Test your speed! Run over stunning rippling water effects!

 

[Russian Steve]

:lol :lol :lol

Hidden character, Marcus Phoenix CONFIRMED! :lol :lol

Or maybe the meat cube will be the hidden character!

 

[layzie1989]

Mortal Kombat vs DC Comics could be done very well if it's dark enough.

 

[G-Fex]

this is going to be huge, this isn't a megaton though, it needs a word with a c letter in it to replace with K.

 

[fernoca]

Some old rumors, just to spice things up..

Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe
-Rated T for Teen
-Darker more serious tone than previous MK games
-Planned as a Wii exclusive, then turned multi
-DC designed/redesigned a few characters (both MK and DC)
-Plays like Dead or Alive, but with special moves (including aerial moves too)

In any case....soon...we'll know..

 

[Ninja Scooter]

will they call it Mortal Kombat vs DK?

what's dead or alice?

 

[MisterHero]

MORTAL KOMBAT : DARK KRISIS

the battle will take place on Apokolips!

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Yes. Ugly mockup. No mouse here (laptop)

 

[twinturbo2]

I like the file name. :lol

Ninja Scooter, Donkey Kong is in the game now???

 

[fernoca]

what's dead or alice?

Around 2 minutes too late...
(i.e. a typo in the 'text file' I had with it..)

 

[Tiduz]

i hope those rumours about the gameplay arent true, sounds so lame and generic.

 

[Azure Dream]

Considering there's already a Mortal Kombat character named "Meat", that wouldn't be too much of a stretch.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

It can be reptile btw...

???
Lame and generic, because of this?

-Plays like Dead or Alive, but with special moves (including aerial moves too)

According to that old rumor it was just an example to describe how it played (nearly free roaming fighter, you could use stuff in the area to block attacks,, fight in the air, throw spears/ice/etc across any direction, etc..)

Who knows..at least there seems to be a picture in a few hours..videos probably more later..after the conference, there was an interview..and a few got to play the game for up to 4 hours...(still playing it it seems)..

 

[SapientWolf]

They need to stop trying to compete with Virtua Fighter, Tekken and Soul Calibur and just rip-off Powerstone. They already have the framework with Shaolin Monks.

Maybe they feel it wont sell as well.

Yep..

Sorry meant to say Midnight CDT. The update is still planned in about 90 min from now.

Plus..

We have a specific question for Boon to list the exiting MK characters that will make it into this game. Right now there's nothing we can reveal yet. But considering what looks like Scorpion on Boon's site pretty much confirms he's in. Plus you can't have one ninja without the other...oh wait you can...MK3 had Sub Zero but no Scorpion. Oh well...

 

[Oblivion]

oh thank god

 

[RiZ III]

They never did try to compete with any of those as the MK style has always been totally different. If anything, soul calibur adventure or whatever on wii was kinda taking the whole 'fighting game into adventure game' like mk had done with shaolin monks. And now SC4 will be having finishing moves too ...

 

[fernoca]

oh thank god

Well, that doesn't mean that a few "silly" things may not pop here..and there..and up there.."is that a fly? is that a plane?..No!, it's..Holy **** Batman!..Friendship!..Friendship? ..Again??"...

 

[Captain N]

I don't get all of the hate for Mortal Kombat. It seems like the cool thing to do is hate on MK.

 

[Tiduz]

Ah, for a moment there i thought it was like DOA and the fatality's were gone, if thats the case then im bailing out

Well, these were their words when they rebooted the series with Deadly Alliance. The series is definitely less arcadey than the previous iterations. And I don't think that is necessarily a good thing.

edit: And there is no way that SC4 will have MK style finishing moves.

 

[Captain N]

Fatality's will probably a HUGE jump over the last game, but won't be anywhere near where they should be. I don't see arms or hearts ripped off/out.

O I didn't realize that was ever said, mind providing quote?

Not mk style finishing moves, but finishing moves.

 

[fernoca]

Yeah..
Seeing Superman impaled with a kryptonite (sp? ) sword..is still "in the bounds" of DC..not that violent..

EDIT:
Quoted Riz..don't know why..

 

[Guy Legend]

Oh yeah, need to add that Doomsday and Darkseid need to be in this (if DC rumor proves correct).

 

[Captain N]

This game really needs to have fatality's that go against the different people. Someone using Fire against SubZero..Kryptonite against Superman.

 

[Rhazer Fusion]

I don't know what to expect from this. I am expecting some ugly, gritty looking characters.

 

[Tiduz]

Ed Boon is ready to spill everything now. Thanks for your questions. Hope to have some good audio for everyone.

 

[kay]

I am expecting some ugly, gritty looking characters.

I am expecting Bald space marines™ since it's UE3.

GEARS OF HOLY BATMAN

 

[Dali]

Why would they use such shitty textures for such a large pic? Already off to a bad start, MK.

 

[Synless]

wtf, fail
