MORTAL KOMBAT vs DC UNIVERSE review 2009
When we think of great combat match-ups, we think cowboys vs. Indians, Jedi vs. Sith, and Marvel vs. Capcom. What’s genuine about these rivalries is that their origins, and motivations, are either clear or nonexistent (Who remembers why Marvel fought Capcom?). Mortal Kombat vs. DC begs some leeway from us. The nature of both universes is so drastically different that upon hearing of this release, many of us lapsed into a rant. Does Kryptonite even exist in the MK universe, and who, besides villains, would perform fatalities in the DC universe? The good news is that this game does not suck. The bad news is that it doesn’t rise above its novelty status as the game where we get to see Batman fight Subzero.
