Title: MK vs DC
Post by: Super-Jesse on April 18, 2008, 04:03:30 PM
I just saw the trailer and watched an interview with Mr. Boon, and I am actually a bit excited for this game. Anyone else looking forward to this title?

I hear they'll be no fatalities and very little blood.

Dude. Awesome. I don't care if there aren't any fatalities (well, I do, but not too much), this looks just too cool. Now we just need a modern Robocop vs. Terminator.

I thought that the fatalities were the main selling point of MK, because the fighting engine sucks hard, and the SNES version with no blood proved it, because it hardly sold.

^ Yeah. Cross-over fighters = Not my thing.

Good Lord, I thought this was a movie for a second... nearly had a heart attack.

So I guess you don't like the Smash Bros. or Marvel vs Capcom series?

I lol'd when I saw "Smash Bros." in the sentence. Pwned.

What's your point? Other than that Smash Bros. isn't a "fighter" in the traditional sense and that it doesn't include comic book characters.

Counter-point: Win! I was going to point those two things out myself, but they were put ever-so-eloquently.

I am not looking forward to this title. I didn't look forward to the Marvel vs. Capcom game, either.

The thing is, Marvel vs. Capcom is actually great fun.
Title: Re: MK vs DC
Post by: Suffix on April 18, 2008, 11:58:00 PM
I forgot to mention I generally have little interest in fighting games. I wouldn't be surprised if it was fun; I just didn't look forward to it.

Anyway, I should mention that I emphasized "not" as a result of my great distaste for Mortal Kombat as a series. Emotional scars and all that.

I have very little interest in fighters as well.

It's a good thing this is a new game, because in the Silver Age, Superman would own them all.

This game is a terrible idea.
Title: Re: MK vs DC
Post by: Glorb on April 19, 2008, 09:27:49 AM
It's true, but I'm still getting it. It might just be stupid enough that it's worth playing for a while. I expect the inevitable comic book tie-in to provide more entertainment, though.

I love DC, and I'm apathatic towards MK, but the idea of playing as Batman in what's probably going to be a decent fighter wins out over how inferior Midways fighter is against Capcom's.

Then again, there's very few fighters that are better than a capcom produced fighting game.

Every time I see this thread, I start thinking of some fictional game called Mario Kart Vs. Donkey Kong.
Title: Re: MK vs DC
Post by: Glorb on April 20, 2008, 12:40:36 AM
That's actually that I thought when I saw the title.

I'd much rather see Wario vs. DK myself.
Title: Re: MK vs DC
Post by: CrossEyed7 on April 20, 2008, 11:12:11 AM
I thought of Mario Kart vs. Dreamcast, which doesn't make much sense.

^ ...Great, now that's what I think of every time I see it!

I always hope they'll eventually wake up and realize how stupid the whole "K" thing is, but I guess not.

I thought Donkey Kong and the U.S.S.R. held a joint kopyright on unnecessary Ks.

I really hope they do this well, it's truly a great concept.

Since when has a game involving DC comics characters been a good game (I say this with Superman games in mind)?
Title: Re: MK vs DC
Post by: missingno on April 22, 2008, 05:00:38 PM
I was leaning more towards Batman, actually. Superman's a junky superhero. I'm aware Batman had some bad games (Forever, obviously), but the thought of Batman and MK characters duking it out seems cool to me.
Title: Re: MK vs DC
Post by: Turtlekid1 on April 23, 2008, 05:19:13 AM
1. Superman used to be cool.
2. I didn't say the concept wasn't interesting, but they have to do it right.
Title: Re: MK vs DC
Post by: missingno on April 23, 2008, 01:29:48 PM
Yes, but I doubt they'd use who Superman used to be, plus Superman wouldn't be that hot in a fighting game.
I really hope they do it well.

They should just have Golden Age Superman. He would beat everyone with one punch.
