This game is your typical Mortal Kombat game with DC Universe characters added in for a bit of variety. The controls are similar to every other Mortal Kombat game out there with regards to doing moves which in my opinion is fantastic. You can invite friends over who have never played the game before in there life but having some experience in the previous games have found it quite easy to master and keep up. The single player aspect is somewhat enjoyable but I find this game is best played with a group of friends. This game is a must if you're a mortal kombat fan who likes to learn all the special moves and finishing moves for characters and as I said ...  Read the complete review

Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe is the latest in the popular fighting series and the first on the next generation consoles. It is also the first time that the two universes of Mortal Kombat and DC have combined, this is explained through a crazy comic book like story which involves the two universes fusing together bringing the fighters together and bringing up equally silly reasons that cause them to fight eachother, surely you weren't expecting a masterpiece of a story in a fighting game though! The new fighting engine in the game has been really tweaked and made alot of fun. Even a novice player can pick up most of the characters and have some fun ...  Read the complete review

In our schoolyard days Vs. matches would often be the subject of debate, even now in the pub the age old question of who would win in a punch up between Superman and Batman has so many factors, it can create new friendships and push old ones out the door. Midway has seen this niche and decided to fill it, by packing in a bunch of well loved superheros and facing them off against a number of vicious fighters imbued with magical elements and known for their violence. Round 1 fight... The game is your average 3D fighter, one person each side, punch, kick, throw, block and some special moves. The special moves work very well as they tend to ...  Read the complete review

Over the past couple of years we've had a few occasions where two completely different franchises have clashed and actually resulted in decent video games. I'm talking about Mario & Sonic at the Olympic games - who would have thought that would happen? Not to mention LEGO Batman (that I still find hard to believe!) I had to do a double take when I saw MK vs DC Universe. Yes, that is DC comics. That means yes, you can pit Sub-Zero against Superman. Or Batman against Jax. How odd. Fortunately, as a fan of both the Mortal Kombat games (right back to coin-op days) and DC comics, this combination was a pleasant surprise to me. I'm not saying I ...  Read the complete review

Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe-The Battle of the Century or a small punch up? Let's face it, Midway are in tough times. In case you haven't heard Midway has a few weeks to pay off $150 million when they only have over $10 million, so we could be seeing them Bankrupt. To be honest, they have made a poor jump to the next generation with mediocre games like Black site, NBA: Chosen One, Hour of Victory and Blitz the League II. To be honest, I think their best game on Xbox 360 is a port of an 8 month old game. So, they aren't doing brilliant at the moment, but that doesn't mean I haven't been excited for Mortal Kombat on the 360. At least until they announced that ...  Read the complete review
