HOLY SHIT! It looks even better in Hi-Def! His mask is made out of a fecking RIBCAGE! Plus it has a scaly look about it. Man I thought I loved it before but this just tops all.

I got a question for Ed Boon.

How would the story mode work. Can you explain?

DAMN!

The Unreal 3 engine does some serious justice! Scorpion has never looked better!

I have a question for boon.

In Mortal Kombat Armageddon the combo system was very simple to maneuver high hitting combos, as well as combining the force of the air combo system which also added a sense of brutality behind each punch and kick. Will you keep these 2 elements in MK vs DC?.


Personally I enjoyed the set up for the combo system. It was very smooth compared to the previous releases and I enjoyed being able to hit characters 12 times and finish the combo in the air. I think it added a whole new experience, and it would be a-shame to see it taken away from this future release.

I can answer that question already MVP9119. NO. Boon has said multiple times that all semblence of the MKDA trilogy's fighting system is out the window. It's all about klose kombat and freefall kombat now.

I do have a question for Mr. Boon however. It's simple, you should be able to get it in there.

Will there be alternate costumes? For MK and DC characters?

Oh man, the level of detail really blew me away. Excuse me while I go find a tissue.

Question for Boon: WILL LOBO BE IN IT?

I thought it looked more like the back of a Scorpion. Like I said before, reminds me a lot of this;

Love his new look!!

And also I got 2 questions:

1. Will there be a "spectator" mode in the online part? ..kinda like DOA's

2. Are we going to have multiple throws now?

Well Glamador if thats the case I guess they will no longer fight .. maybe just take a stroll through the beach or something. Its obviously a fighting concept that may carry on. Thats for the info tho

I have a question or two.

1. Is there a possibility of DC Vertigo characters making an appearence?

2. What are some ideas for the depth and look of level design?

I definitely think it looks more like a ribcage. I am going to continue to believe this because I don't like Scorpions. They freak me out.





Hmm...yep, definitely a ribcage.

Great questions so far, added to the list. I'll be sending them in next week, so keep them coming!!

Although we know that multiple fighting styles won't be returning, will each fighter haver their own distinctive style of fighting. Or is the fighting mechanic similar to the 2-d mk's in the sense that everyone shared the same basic moves. Furthermore, will each fighter have thier own unique style of fighting during freefall and klose kombat?


How many alternate costumes can we expect this time around?

What is "RAGE"? You posted a few hints regarding that word on your site.

We all know that Scorpion is your favorite mk character. However, who's your favorite dc character?

Here's another question. Are there limited Edition Collector's sets this time around?

Can we expect fmv's for each of the characters this time around, instead of still pics?


How is DC comics promoting this game? Is there a comic book adapatation in the works?

Another good question is if they're planning to give us a playable demo on the 360 and the ps3.

BTW, is the render even in-game?

I hope this game isn't near finished. Those are not up to par with the other fighters around.

I think this Scorpion looks as detailed and HD as any of the Soul Calibur or Tekken characters I've seen. And he looks WAY better than the SFIV characters so far...god the art direction sucks in that game.

Well SF is cell-shaded. And SC isn't even done yet but from what i have seen they look amazing. MK is the god of all fighting games they should have the best graphics and gameplay, but lately none of that has been happening. And yet i still go out and buy the games....
