Well, "Brutalities" makes sense. I was wondering how, exactly, they were gonna make the good guys kill as mercilessly as the MK characters.

Even though I don't like when reviewers literally break down their reviews into literal sections, I REALLY enjoyed this review...

I loved the captions under the pictures. They were actually kinda funny (especially the Tom Petty reference. I'm FREE FALLIN!!!)

Nice job...

The fact that Superman is in this game and can get beaten up by some mere mortal automatically equals FAIL.
In the Arena, all of the contestants are reduced to the same power level (outside the arena, Raiden is a thunder god).

Sad face...kinda sucks that this game blew. In my opinion I think they should make Marvel vs Capcom 3.

And in addition...superman should win all his fights...hes freaking SUPERMAN...he's overpowered. He should be able to kill all the mortal combat characters put together. Hes OP!

I really didn't like the game. The fighting mechanics are too simple (simpler than Deadly Alliance from 2003) and special moves too strong, which results in everyone just throwing super-powers around in online matches.

Really liked Deadly Alliance, after this it just went downhill.

Good Review

Ok. I can't believe I'm going to be "this guy." Superman's major weakness is magic. The nature of the two worlds merging through magic would affect his powers.

Other than the previously mentioned typos, a great review. I enjoyed the game, but then again, I'm a DC Comics freak. Any fighting game with Batman & Green Lantern, I'm all over.

apparantly they'll release more characters as DLC, and the first MK character to be done so is gonna be Kung lao.


besides, Kintaro > Kung Lao :p

Nerd...:)

Okay, so Superman's weakness is magic? Does that mean if I pull a bunny out of my hat I can beat his head in? That's really lame and very nonspecific. But hey, he's gotta have some sort of weakness or he's entirely no fun.

I am aware of Raiden's status as a god, but I still think it's ridiculous that Superman can't just destroy everyone.

If a god can't destroy everybody, some guy with laser vision probably won't do much better.

This review would have turned into a rant if I had gone off on the inclusion of the Flash.

For a fighting game, I actually really really liked this game. It helps to have classic character like Scorpion and Batman in the game to really help you get into it and decide who you like to play as. Also, Mortal Kombat and DC are great as a pair up because they are both genres where the characters have insane special abilities that spice up the gameplay. The aerial combat and close up brawls are really nice, too. The game wasn't particularly enthralling, but it was fun. The story wasn't all that bad either, surprisingly.
