MORTAL KOMBAT Vs. DC!?

Word is that the guys over at Midway and DC Comics have decided to align or clash together to make the next installment in the Mortal Kombat franchise one of the most interesting. This is just what happened with Marvel and the Street Fighter series, later the entire Capcom library, years ago. Look at where that ended up. Capcom's "Vs." series is still touted as one of the greatest series of fighting games ever released. Let's hope the same happens with MORTAL KOMBAT Vs. DC. Midway was last reported to be completely revamping the fighting system and fatalities have been removed from the game. That part kind of sucks. Scratch that; really sucks. I'm hoping they change that. It's not Mortal Kombat without fatalities. Apparently DC doesn't want to see their characters mutilated. Um... "Crisis on Infinite Earths" anyone? You can now check out the upcoming game's website at:

Capcom's VS. series are some of my favorite 2D fighters of all time, no matter how imbalanced they may be. Let's face it, MK and Batman have not exactly had the best run of games in the past few generations. If Midway and DC can breath fresh air into the series, then this could be great. Midway needs to completely revamp the fighting engine of MK: The shock factor of blood and gore no longer overshadows weak and dated gameplay.

If this is indeed real, it's one to keep an eye on.
