The <a href="http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/mortalkombat/news.html?sid=6189513">preview article</a> at <b>GameSpot</b> lets a few details out that the game will not be <b>'M'-rated</b> but will feature some style of finisher, just not <b>fatalities</b> per se.

Also, the <a href="http://www.worldscollide.com">WorldsCollide.com</a> website has been created and shows a newsletter signup and links to <a href="http://forums.midway.com/mortal_kombat_vs_dc_universe/b10806/p1">Midway's official MK vs DCU forums</a>.

OMFG!! EFFIN AWESOME!!

I love dc comics!!!!! and mortal kombat!!

yea.. i hope its not a create-a- fatality thing. Each character should have its own fatality. I get more desperate every time i imagine batman doing a fatality. WHOO!!
 
I still have hope for this game. I feel Midway will not do "Fatalities" but I hope it's something along the lines of a super combo "IE:Killer Instinct" ending with a death move. I thinking that would go over well with both MK and DC fans.
 
There is a 5 min interview with Boon about the whole thing at Gamespot. He says there will be finishers, but they may not be called Fatalities.

*Edit: Here's the link http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/mortalkombat/media.html

actually, having just watched this interview, he said there would be no stage fatalities, he didn't say anything about normal ones and whether or not they would or wouldn't be in the game. merely that instead of having a "ring out" you'd have to actually beat the person.
 
Why is Batman in his gay grey suit? It should be his outfit from Batman Begins. Unless its an alternate. I dont know about you guys but seeing guys in there tights and spandex with capes ( superman and batman) i dont think makes this game dark and sinister. I might as well hoped for Mortal Kombat vs. WWE.
 
lol raven, or how about maybe mk vs. dragon ball z or mk vs. pokemon. if we're going for shock factor here and a stretch for the mk universe why not? anything's possible...
 
most likely, i can't even think of 8 characters in the dc universe, cause imo dc sucks. but they'll probably use that for profiles if that's actually for the character list. guess we'll find out as time goes on.
 
Damn, the .MOV version isn't working. I need that so I can analyze it frame by frame. WMP doens't have that feature.
