Warning: Spoilers
Two worlds collide in Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe with a original story that will surprise comic book and video game fans a like.
While it does get some heat for being a T rated video game once you sit down and actually play it you find it more fun then one is lead to believe.
The game features 22 playable characters with two of them being unlockable. For Mortal Kombat you get to play as Sonya Blade, Sub- Zero, Scorpion, Liu Kang, Raiden, Kano, Kitana, Baraka, Jax, and Shang Tsung For DC Universe you get Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Catwoman, The Joker, Captain Marvel, Deathstroke, Green Lantern, and The Flash. The two characters you get once you beat both sides of the story mode will be Darkseid and Shao Khan.
The game story mode plot has you playing on both sides where in the Mortal Kombat story line Shao Khan after his defeat is confronted by Raiden as Quan Chi created a portal to escape he is attacked by Shao Khan only for Raiden to use his attack to send Shao Khan into the portal unaware that at the same time Superman who had just defeated Darkseid use his heat ray on him as he try to escape causing both to merges into a new being which is causing both the DC and Mortal Kombat universes to cross paths.
Blinded by the rage the two sides see each other as the enemy. The rage is something used where the characters get a increase boost of energy during fights.
The new free fall is where a character can slam the other through a breakable wall giving them the chance to perform attacks or the other fighter will do a counter attack.
The graphics are very well done with the characters looking almost life like and they took the time to detail every thing about the characters
The level designs and very impress as well with the stages being inspired from DC and Mortal Kombat characters.
The controls do take a good time to get used to and some of the combos can be hard to perform so this is not for the avenge gamer so you will need to do a lot of game play to do better.
The voice acting is impressive with the actors actually taking the time to help sell the story of the game.
The game play is the strong point of the game where you may enjoy fighting your favorite characters from the two sides.
The game does have some problems such as the fact that it is not M mature and the fatalities are not what a Mortal Kombat fan would want to see since they kept it less. Also Batman and Wonder Woman and the others DC Superheroes have Heroic Brutalities where they beat their opponent badly.
But some of the finishing moves are pretty good so no worries on that.
Well the game did get blasted for not being M mature the game play makes it worth your while.
Overall if you're a fan of DC Comics or Mortal Kombat or just looking for a good crossover fighting game then I suggest picking this up since most stores have it for low price.
I give Mortal Kombat Vs DC Universe an 8 out of 10
8/10
