<b>Midway</b> has released a couple of great looking artwork shots of <b>Gotham City</b> and <b>The Batcave</b> from <a href="http://www.trmk.org/games/mortal_kombat_vs_dc_universe/">Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe</a>. It is pretty shocking to see such a recognizable backdrop in a <b>Mortal Kombat</b> game. The imagination runs wild with these new shots.

Didn't Boon say that the arenas are going to be half MK and half DC? like they're merging together.
 
I don't think he meant it that way, just half the arenas will be from MK and half from DC...that would be sweet to have at least 1 arena be merged like that tho. Maybe for the final boss fight or something.

As for the pics...I agree wtih Goraka. JOYGASM!
 
Not one MK arena yet? Oh come on guys...

Your pleasing the DC fans, but there your primary goal here should be to pull off the Mk Vs DC thing by convincing the MK fans this game is worth it.
 
I think after seeing both of these stages get revealed I think it's a safe bet Robin or Joker will be in. I doubt Batman will have two stages for himself. Though I would also like to see Arkham.

Quoted for truth. I imagine the MK fans are watching this far closer than the DC fans right now, so what gives? This game is all we have, but DC fans still have all their comics to fall back on whether or not they're even interested in this game.

Ranting aside, I dunno, I'm just not that into in these renders. They look fine and all, but... eh.

Maybe just maybe it's the top teir to the level, and the bottom teir. I don't see how that would work, but it could be.
 
Yeah. They look great, but its about the gameplay and the gameplay only.

Maybe for you it is. Don't assume any of us don't care about the looks and story. Gameplay is certainly important tho and I'm a little starved for some in-game footage...all these renders are nice but I'd like to see a FIGHT. Oh well, July isn't too far away now...I'm lying, it's a month away.

I wasnt speaking for you or anyone else. Besides, looks and story have never been a problem, The gameplay has.

Actually there's the Netherealm stage that was released alongside Metropolis.

Not much has changed about it though... Hell to me always seems the same in every version of any game. :-/

Except Diablo. Hell wasn't fire and brimstone like Diablo 2 in that game... In Diablo it gave you the impression Hell was alive and had I been on the Diablo 2 team, I would have encouraged them to explore that more rather then Diablo 2's Hell.
 
I liked Diablo II's hell because it wasn't JUST fire and brimstone. There were elements of architecture and ruin that gave it some feeling amidst that bleak landscape. As for Hell in Diablo, I was never able to get all the way to hell. Diablo was just so far inferior to Diablo II in gameplay I couldn't stomach playing Diablo...I did however read up on the story and watch some gameplay from later levels.

But that's off-topic. The netherrealm DOES always look the same. The pic we've seen looks exactly like it did in MKSM. Let's see an interesting MK stage like the graveyard from the trailer, or some place totally new and exciting. Or as was mentioned above, a merging of the realms.

Yah, a stage with the realms merging would be awsome. I would love to see Lin Kuei headquarters if it is in, and Titans Tower for the next DC stage.
