  1. Daft, lightweight, retro scrapper lifts gloom on a dark knight

    As a beat-’em-up, it pales next to the complex hit systems and frame-buffering of games such as Virtua Fighter, Soul Calibur and SFIV. Mortal Kombat’s moves are comparatively limited and annoyingly difficult to pull off in some cases. Even the graphics aren’t quite up to par – despite running on the Unreal 3 engine, it all looks very pixilated and oddly plasticky. What it does do better than most other fighting games is provide a terrific piece of fan service,... Read more

    It's a good fighter, and the online component gives you a pretty nice replay value. If you're a fan of DC or MK, you should check it out. Read more

    Video game crossovers are by no means a new or rare thing. We had Robocop facing down the Terminator on the early Sega Mega drive. More recently we’ve seen Mario and Sonic go head to head at the Olympics and the superheroes from the Marvel universe battling the characters from Capcom’s creations. The question concerning this latest crossover fighting game is: can it really compete with the scope of the large FPS or adventure games with all they have to offer? The... Read more

    Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe isn't a bad game; it's just too hard to justify buying when much better titles already exist. Read more

Graphics are good also. I do need to find out the finishing move though. But overall great game with friends over & online. Read more

    I have always been a fan of mortal combat and when I seen this game was teaming up with dc universe I knew it was a must have. I can choose from twenty two charcters and choose either charcters from mortal combat and also dc universie like catwoman and the joker on the dc universe side. My favourite charcter is sub zero. I have to admit the moves are great and it is a great game to play when there is a multiplayer for example player with your friends or even just playing... Read more
