Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe - Playstation 3

Fun game!

Great brawler with your favorite DC and mortal kombat characters lots of fun. I bought it thinking not much about it except that I get kick the crap out a DC character like superman sorry batman fan here lol but bravo this game is all I didnt think it could possible be great animation great fighting and a great cast. Wow indeed any fan of any of this franchises would love playing this game I even got my wife to play against me in a Superman vs Batman fight just because its just too cool and quite easy to pick up and dude I suggest this game to anyone who wants to have fun and just beat the crap out of someone from either world.

I have been waiting for a good head to head fighting game to play in a group environment since the PS3 came out. Fight Night Round 3 was good, but it didn't showcase the systems full capabilities. Also boxing isn't the ideal fighter to play in a group environment. If you're looking for a game to play with a bunch of friends (physically present) where the rookie button smasher has a chance at winning - this fits the bill. It's just pick up the controller and go! As a past player of Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat and Tekken (series) I found myself getting out moves instinctively, that was of course followed with lots of trash talking! The graphics are awesome! The DC angle is just genius! This game is pure fun! After a few hours of button smashing and trash talking with a few friends I can report No slowdowns in a very fast 3D game play environment. The character rendering as well as the backgrounds are superb. How this will stack up against Street Fighter 4, & 2009 UFC Undisputed I can't say, but as it stands now I think this one edges out Soul Caliber 4, but if you're a bigger fan of the Soul Caliber series than the MK one you may see that differently?

I bought this game for my 10 year old son for Christmas. I shopped around for awhile and I went to various websites and I found the best deal here on Amazon. So I'm already happy with that! But as for the game... well I know my son loves it. We have the PS3 and thus this game is for that console. He spend quite awhile playing by himself and with his 15 year old brother and year old sister. The characters are really exceptionally drawn. The women are perhaps a bit to robust in certain areas but they can whoop on the guys just the same! There are a number of combos that are simple to follow even for my 7 years old. Dad and I I even join in the action and it really reminds me of the original MK. The characters available to choose from are awesome. You have "bad guys" Joker, Baraka, Scorpion, Deathstroke, Lex Luthor and good guys like Sub-Zero, Batman, Superman, Flash, Jax, Wonder Woman. Of course I haven't named them all here but you get the idea. I would recommend the game to anyone who enjoys the face to face matches and enjoyed games like Streetfighter, Tekken, or Marvel vs Capcom.

First off, I will go ahead and allow everyone to categorize me before reading my review. I was a kid when the first Mortal Kombat came out on Genesis and thought it was awesome. I really liked the second one as well, the third one pissed me off, and the 4th one for N64 was pretty much impossible to play. I haven't played Mortal Kombat since the one for N64 came out, which was probably about 15 years ago if my memory serves me right. I liked Street Fighter 2 when it came out, and couldn't stand any iteration of it since. Tekken to me was retarded because all of my friends played it like it was some kind of drug, and I could pick up a controller and mash buttons on it and win and they would just get mad as hell at me. To me, that kind of game is pointless. I haven't bought a fighting game since I got the Wu tang clan game for Playstation which was hilarious if not frustrating to no end. I was skeptical about buying a fighting game I hadn't played yet, as it seems every one that comes out is boring or stupid or just not fun at all. I got this game on Amazon for like 20 bucks and after reading the reviews on here it sounded like something I would like. It is. This is probably the most fun fighting game I have ever played. It perfectly (to me) combines what I loved about the old mortal kombat and SF games with the new (again, to me) style of figting games that I don't much care for, but have to respect their controls and graphics. This game has it all. It has the flashy, cool looking special moves that Mortal Kombat was famous for, and it eliminates the majority of the frustrating parts (i.e. the infinite sweep, etc.) It's controls are very good, and I never feel like it's just not doing what I want it to do. The moves are not overcomplicated, so someone like me who can't sit in their mothers basement for 25 hours a day playing constantly to master every player can actually perform moves and combo's that look cool and are effective. Having said that, my wife can sit down to play with me (heh heh heh) and she can figure out a couple moves and use those in combination with mashing the buttons and still hold her own against me. I win more than lose, but she can still get me with about 10 hits in a row before I can figure out what to do to break away. We both have a lot of fun playing this game, and really enjoy the graphics and controls. It's violent enough to not make you feel like you're playing tekken and the fatalies are cool even though they're toned down. I would sacrifice some violence to get to beat up superman with barakka. The story was cheesy, but good for a fighting game, and entertaining at the least. One more thing to note is, if you get whipped by the computer in story mode, it will progressively get easier to beat until you win, and which point it will start getting harder again until you lose, etc. I found this seemingly small detail totally eliminated all of the frustration I usually feel when playing against the computer in a fighting game. I would recommend this to anyone who is a casual gamer that wants a solid fighting game in thier collection that will not only keep their interest, but look really cool and be a lot of fun to play. Update: Online play is pretty much completely retarded as all anyone ever does is pick the flash and do his infinite combo over and over. Not fun at all.

one word can describe this game - incredible, the graphics (through hdmi) are amazing, the fighting style is a bit different from the previous mk's on the ps2 the combat is faster and easier to pick up the combos are really easy to master, overall this game is tons of fun, beware of kids online - they will cheat and by cheat i mean sit in the corner and spam the same special move over and over again. the story is great its lots of fun, and this may be the only teen rated mk game but it still has blood, and the no gore is not really an issue , every other mk game has blood and gore if you really care about it that much go and play literally any other mk. this game is certainly worth the money its a great new style of mk.

I got this game on a whim. I wanted a fun game that wasn't too much into story lines. This game is pretty cool if you're into the crossover fighting game genre. Mortal Kombat and DC both have brought some great characters to the game. The story mode was the part I was excited for most. You choose Mortal Kombat or DC, and you follow different characters through the game's story line. While most would question the actually credibility of the story line, it's decent and provides some great cutscenes. The nonstop fight/cutscene combination of the story mode really makes it intriguing, and you might actually beat one of the story modes in one sitting. I played through the DC one first and really enjoyed playing through all the characters as a nice intro. The arcade mode brings back the challenge of fighting through all the characters in the game, but you can choose exclusively fighting against MK or DC character or a mix of both. The Kombo Challenge mode is very interesting, but can be difficult if you can't get the timing of the combos down. The online play is still very well alive, but a lot of people just sit there and play cheaply, taking the fun out of it. Overall, this game is really fun for parties or having friends over, but the single player aspect of the game doesn't stay fun very long. If you want a cool fighting game with a great story mode, pick this up. The price is perfect for a game that's fun for as long as it lasts.

The game was brand new sealed with plastic wrap. Thank you so much! Couldn't ask for more.
