    Horrible AI makes this game just as weak as the predecessors (past MK3). The opponents sometimes just stand there idly waiting to be completely annihilated, and then in split second they become unbeatable, and this is on easy difficulties. The "kombo" challenge is horribly tuned, with combos not registering upon completion.

    I drained a good amount of time into this game. Single player arcade ladder is as you would expect. The story is okay, giving you a chance to play as most of the characters. Each character plays completely different from one another, which is great.

    Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe is overall, under-achieved, mainly due to its imbalanced censorship and lack of innovation.

For a DC fan the 'T' rating is preferable to seeing Superman eviscerate someone or be decapitated himself. For the comic fan the story is reminiscent of some of the more fun elseworld storylines and shows a good understanding of the characters. The voice acting is very good on the DC side. The fights are incredibly fun and to be able to play a fighter with fan service such as epic fights between Batman and The Joker, Superman and Lex Luthor as well as cool cross license fighting is more than worth the price of admission. One of the most purely fun games I've played in a while... and I play many games. Not a tournament fighter, but a fantastically fun game that does the DC universe proud( it even makes Captain Marvel cool!). Here's hoping for a sequel with an expanded roster.… Expand

    As of late the Mortal Kombat series has hit its stride, with several games offering solid gameplay with lots of replay value. The addition of DC characters to this game only sweetens the deal and online puts the cherry on top. Don't let the T rating make you miss out on this gem.

    There's only two things really wrong with this game. One: Due to the T rating, any and all fatalities are seriously censored, and can't even really count as a "I beat your ass, you loser!" effect. That really sucks, and it even limits the brutality of the "good" DC heroes who don't do fatalities, but instead fo "heroic brutalities", which are identical, but simply aren't fatal (even thoughThere's only two things really wrong with this game.

That really sucks, and it even limits the brutality of the "good" DC heroes who don't do fatalities, but instead fo "heroic brutalities", which are identical, but simply aren't fatal (even though some of them would most certainly be). The second thing is that combat lacks complexity. This is a really bare-bones fighter, and aside from the standard special moves and combos and the like, all you get is a "Rage Meter". Once your rage meter is full, you can go into a very brief Rage Mode, which essentially makes you invincible and your attacks unblockable. This "Rage Meter" doesn't work at all, though. It's bad enough that it's simply boring, and just makes your character glow while it's in effect, but in the right hands it's certain death for the opponent. A well-used Rage can nearly empty an opponent's life bar, which they can do nothing about since there is no dodging, and thus should not be. This game really needed anything besides this poorly-thought-out Rage Meter. I don't know what, maybe they could have taken a page from BlazBlue and thrown in special Drive moves for each character or something. In any case, the Rage Meter simply sucks as the mechanic that can determine the outcome of a match, regardless of skill level. When you can't block or avoid their barrage of attacks, it's hard to win after losing more than half your life bar. Still, the game's not bad, and still has everything it needs. The story mode is well-done, the roster is good, the fatalities, while censored, are still not terrible (but not exactly Mortal Kombat, 'cause you know, T rating), the voice acting is all there, everyone's special moves are appropriate for each character, the stages are plentiful and detailed, as well as destructible and interactive with some fun things you can do to cause damage in each stage, and while the extras are kind of slim (only two unlockable characters), it works on its own. Plus, I mean, you can pit Batman against Scorpion. That's worth something in itself. Don't expect a classic here, but for what it costs now, it's worth a look for anyone interested. It's definitely not a fighter that'll get any tournament time, but it's a nice diversion, and serves its purpose.… Expand

The gameplay is wonky. There's a slight delay between hitting the buttons and the characters' actions. It's also very unbalanced. There aren't alot of gameplay modes an the ones that do exist aren't worth your time to explore. Since it's release, its become drastically cheaper and that means you can pick it up in a bargain bin for a very low cost if you're looking for a few extra trophies or achievements.

Goofy storyline, tame fatalities, corny design – it's almost like a super-hero cartoon. The biggest flaw is 20 core characters, which sounds like descent number, but even with 3 unlocked bosses you feel roaster lacking. There's also no unlockables.

    The DC universe versus one of fighting games' most popular characters was an excellent concept, which eventually lead NetherRealms to developing 2013's Injustice: Gods Among Us.

But my concerns aren't for the lack of M rated content -- before 2011's reboot of the franchise came out, Mortal Kombat wasn't even taken serious beyond blood and guts -- as much as it is for the imbalanced handling of the ESRB content, as well as the overall dullness you feel after running through it for a week. (I previously reviewed it as KendylKlownfish in 2011, I'm reviewing it again just because, well, I always want to restate my thoughts on a game, old or now -- and I have no social life, ahem).

    Pros? Although I once called it "lousy", it has an overall engaging story mode in spite of some cheesiness in the character's dialogue and execution, NetherRealms obviously cherishes canon details over Capcom, who usually focus on arcade mode and, well, that's it; great graphics; kombatants versing against DC legends is a comic geek and gamer's wet dream. Cons? The imbalanced handling of content, which ends up making fatalities (and um, "heroic" brutalities, *snickers*) look unintentionally comical; core gameplay hasn't reduced the clunkiness of the PS2 games; not much variety for fighters seeking out challenge; an overall dull experience.    … Expand

    Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe in my opinion is a good , but somewhat flawed game.

    STORY: MK vs DC does something pretty unique in the fighting game genre. Instead of having one straightforward story, there's 2 different viewpoints on how the story progress.

    STORY: MK vs DC does something pretty unique in the fighting game genre. Instead of having one straightforward story, there's 2 different viewpoints on how the story progress. There's the MK side and the DC side, each one having a different vision on the events, but both tell the same story.

    Both sides start the same way. Superman and Raiden are just finishing off the main villains of their respective universes, Shao Kahn and Darkseid, and somehow both raiden and superman synchronize themselves to "eliminate" both Shao Kahn and Darkseid, while both of them are standing in a portal which somehow fuses both of them to create 1 single being...Dark Kahn...haha. When this happens a force called rage starts taking over the villains and the heroes of each universe and this causes for both universes to slowly but surely...fuse. Ok there are obviously a lot of conveniences in this plot and while this may annoy some players...meh i personally don't mind, but this story is not strong by any means.

    PRESENTATION: In terms of presentation MK vs DC looks pretty decent for a 7th gen 2008 game and it actually did some things that would later be reused for MK9. For example, the character clothing will break while the battle is progressing. This is a really cool detail and when you are playing the game it looks very nice. The backgrounds are well done, same goes for the character models, the 60 fps are there, the music is good, overall is a really solid presentation..., but (and this is a big one) one of the key defining things that MK is known for is the violence, but in this game the use of blood is severely reduced and they did something to the fatalities that i really didn't like, but aside from that the presentation is very good.

    GAMEPLAY: MK vs DC set some of the basics that MK9 would improve upon, like the speed, which is very well balanced, but i feel like the characters feel a little floaty.

    One of the main mechanics is the rage mechanic, by dealing and taking damage a bar will fill up and when is full you can go into a super rage mode where you take little damage and your strength is increased for a short period of time. Another cool thing are what i call "Attack and Defend moments". Like the name suggest, in some moments of the fight you will have to do 1 of 3 things usually involved with attacking and defending. One of them is "Close Kombat", when this happens both fighters will have to press buttons and when the attacking player picks a different button than the other fighter, he will do damage, but if both fighters pick the same button, the defending player will counter attack, this is a really cool feature. Another one is "Falling Kombat", in certain stages you will be able to knock your opponent out of the stage and start a freefall kombat, this follows the same rules of "Close Kombat", but here instead of counterattacking, the places of the attacking player and the defending players will be switched and on top of that, there's a meter that will fill up the more you punch the other fighter and when it's full the attacking player can do a special move to brutally send the other fighter to the ground, this is a really awesome addition. And the 3rd one is what i call "Wall attack", the attacker will take the other fighter and smack him into some walls, whether or not you deal damage depends on which fighter mashes the buttons faster, this one is not as cool as the other ones, but it is satisfying.

    You obviously have the typical modes like: Arcade, Story, challenges, training, online, extras and so on and so forward (tho it would be nice to get a few more modes because this game is really lacking in content). The special and normal moves are there, there's 22 characters to play with and the Fatalities...uuugh...are pathetic, for one thing only the dc villians and the mk characters will have fatalities, while the heroes will have heroic brutalities (which totally sucks!!) and on top of that the actual fatalities are a complete joke, barely any of them have blood and the gore and violence have been incredibly reduced, only one fatality comes to mind when discussing violence in this game (that would actually be reused in MK9), the joker's fatality.

    In the end Mortal Kombat vs DC universe is a good game with decent graphics, good music, well thought mechanics, censored violence, convenient story, great characters and more, but i feel like it's crushed in so many ways by MK9 and MKX that the only reason to buy it, is if you are a hardcore Mortal Kombat fan, but it did come up with some ideas that would later be reused in MK9 so i'll give it that. So with that said i'll give Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe a 7/10.    … Expand

    Nice fighting game, especially if you like Mortal Kombat games or the DC universe. However, even though I played for quite a long time, there are few options other than the single and the online modes. I would not even consider the kombo challenge, as it is just stupidly difficult and does nothing but frustrate you. As I see it, a game can be hard, but in a different and more coherent way.

    This crossover fighting title is Midway's very own "Marvel Vs. Capcom". It looks great, but feels underdeveloped. The game also carries a 'T' rating which means this is a gore free"Mortal Kombat". The lack of content is also disappointing since the PS2 MK games were packed with features.

    Casual players will punch through the storyline before burning out after getting stumped by one or two Kombo Challenges, while Mortal Kombat fans will have trouble accepting the toned down Fatalities and somewhat slower gameplay. In short, this game's fun, but its legs probably can't carry it beyond the whole "Wow, Batman's fighting Superman" first impression.

    The game is not a failure by any means, but you will find yourself asking for more or wanting to play other more fleshed out fighting games. The visuals were also a big letdown, especially the backgrounds, mainly because we've been spoiled by other visually appealing fighting games.

    The combat is solid, the story mode is substantial and if you are a fan of either universe there is something here to enjoy. The lackluster finishing moves and lack of extras really hurt the overall experience, but if you are indeed looking for a game that pits two franchises full of beloved characters there is a lot to love here.
