Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe Get's FatalitiesPublished by wes213 on Wednesday, June 25, 2008
Looks like the long awaited news has hit and the verdict is that Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe will have the fatalities that all true die hard MK fans thrive on but the DC characters will only have brutalities.
In an interview with Gamespot Ed Boon explained by saying: "Mortal Kombat characters and DC villains will have fatalities, whilst the DC heroes will have ‘brutalities’, because they’re goodies and aren’t allowed to kill people.
Brutalities will function exactly like fatalities, but without killing the opponent, so you’ll get to see Batman beating the hell out of the likes of Scorpion, which is always great."
Speaking on the early development stages of Mortal Kombat vs. DC Ed Boon stated: "Going into this, we've had a number of conversations with DC about what people's reactions will be. We have been pleasantly surprised as to how cooperative DC has been with us. They understand that their universe isn't as violent as Mortal Kombat's and that there would be a lot of assumptions that the game would be a "watered-down MK." So from that standpoint, we know that is where a lot of player's concerns would be. With that, our discussions with DC are mainly based on individual items that may or may not be too violent or are not in brand with their characters. Certain animations, blood effects, and sound effects that we have in the game are really pushing the T-rating envelope."
So if your like me and was sure we would get a filtered, censored, bag of bull then today is a good day my friend, feels like a small victory for violent video games the world over.
Just to make you think a bit Ed Boon left off with this little bit of insight: "I've never held back my enthusiasm for doing a project like MK vs. Street Fighter. I still think it would be a blast to do. But the reality of the situation is that we are two different companies. That's a tough obstacle to overcome. It's kind of like doing Tekken vs. Virtua Fighter, Die Hard vs. Rambo, Coke vs. Pepsi, "Family Ties" vs. "Growing Pains," Alien vs. Preda...never mind...you get the idea."
