Fun, action packed game. The Mortal Kombat series is now merged with the DC Universe. How good was it excecuted? Let's see.
You have 24 players to choose from. 12 from the Mortal Kombat and 12 from the DC Universe. Batman, Superman, Scorpion and Sub-Zero and in there. There are two story modes- one for each side. The story mode lets you experience the battle between the two worlds, and each time fight with another character as you move along the story. The story is pretty nice, not short but not that long- it tool me an hour to finish it. There are also Kombo Challenges which can keep you up with the controller for a great amount of time- as they are pretty hard to do. There is also an arcade mode, like the past games in series, and they are quite fun. About the gameplay: Each character has it's own unique moves- Superman can launch the enemy into the air and Raiden can shoot Lightnings from his hands. The game has four main buttons- two for kicks and two for punches. The Free-fall Kombat and Klose kombat are a nice addings to the game. For comclusion, the game is very good, but 24 characters aren't enough. Maybe next time we'll have a double number of characters, which will be nicer.

We are most likely to die from this game than anything else In my opinion, it was quite a disgrace. It's combination of Super Hero's and Warriors from Ancients was quite a futile attempt to bring the past and future together. My thoughts, stick to one theme! Past, or Future!

Great game for Mortal Kombat fans. As I heard about this game, couple of monthes ago- I was very exicted. I waited for the game to come out because it looked so great, and the 'collision' between characters looked very nice. This was one of the first games I have bought to my PS3 and it was great. I was thinking to buy Soul Calibur IV first, but I decided to go on MK VS DC in the end. The game features Nice graphics, good gameplay and a lot of funny moves. Some say that this game is different, that there are no blood & gore, but I don't think like that. You can play as a DC character (Batman, Superman etc.) or you can play as Mortal Kombat character. My favourite is Sub-Zero, so I made a story with him. The story was quite long, very fun story mode.
I think that every hardcore Mortal Kombat fan should but this game. I wasn't regreting my purchase, and I don't think you'll be too.

Not so super-man I was amused by Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe when I first heard about it: How would a bunch of pugilists from the Mortal Kombat series hope to defeat the likes of Superman? The story tells of how an inter-dimensional portal causes Darkseid, one of Superman's arch-nemeses, and Shao Kahn, the power-hungry emperor of Mortal Kombat's Outworld realm, to merge into Dark Kahn. Consequently, the two universes start to merge. Characters suddenly gain newfound strength (explaining why Superman can be defeated by other characters in a normal fight). Thus, the scene for an epic battle between the universes forms. Comprising a choice of 22 characters from both universes, the roster includes Mortal Kombat favorites like the Shaolin monk Liu Kang and sorcerer Shang Tsung, and DC superhero Batman and his worst enemy, the Joker. The fighting system is a throwback to the first few Mortal Kombats, with most characters handled similarly. Punching your buttons lands those punches and kicks. No more grappling with both unarmed and weapon fighting styles like in the more recent versions. This makes gameplay simple, allowing new players to get into the game quickly.
The exception is when you control their combo and fighting moves (called fatalities and heroic brutalities). Every character has his own torch, like Green Lantern can create a pair of magic hammers from his ring to plummet his opponent. Three in-match, mini-games provide for a breather during matches. For example, Free Fall Kombat lets you continue beating up your opponent by hitting certain buttons while both of you are falling to a lower level of the stage. There is also a Kombat Challenge mode, which has you tapping buttons in the order dictated on screen to execute a combo move, like a tremor-causing punch to the ground or hooking your opponent between your legs and swinging him around. Accurate timing and button-tapping finesse are a must for this. While most other fighting games these days are stuffed with extra content to enhance their value, like art galleries and alternate costumes, there is little to look forward to once you have completed the story (and unlocked two boss characters for play) and Kombo Challenge modes. Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe is a decent but simple fighting game and it is fun just to see superheroes from the DC comics universe brawling. Recommended if you are a Mortal Kombat or DC comics fan looking for something new to play.
A good game for fun! A good game for if you want some fun and fight, the fatalities are easy to do and the animations of them are nice and cool. It hasn't many combos to make and it makes the game a bit boring and repeatitive.
The adaptation of Mortal Kombat characters with the characters of DC Universe it's very good and it's hard to see the difference powers between them, also the history mode argument and videos are very good!
It is not the best fighting game, but so fun if you like Mortal Kombat or the Superheroes that appear in this game.
