Clicky.

Its apparent that we are doomed indefinitely.


From The Article


I didn’t know what to expect of “Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe” before seeing it at Comic-Con 2008. Then I saw it and.. loved it. I’ll have more on my impressions soon, but in addition to playing the game, I was sat down with “Mortal Kombat” co-creator Ed Boon. Boon doesn’t just love “Mortal Kombat;” he’s a huge fighting fan in general. It’s part of the reason he wanted to cross the “Mortal Kombat” universe with another world of characters. If this cross-over is a success, I asked Boon if it might open some doors to a collaborating with another series. “In a perfect world, to me, I still think it would be cool as hell to see Ryu from “Street Fighter” and Scorpion from Mortal Kombat,” said Boon. “I just think it would be cool. To me, “Mortal Kombat vs. Street Fighter vs. Tekken vs. Virtua Fighter” would be the coolest in the world.” “The reality is you’re going to have [the other development teams] on the other side of the world,” he continued. “So, who makes it? Who does what? It would be awesome. And who knows what they’re gonna say if this is big. Or someone’s mind is going to open — “Tekken vs. Marvel”? Maybe “Tekken vs. Virtua Fighter.” They’ll just say, screw you, “Mortal Kombat”! [laughs]” We’ll have more on our interview with Boon later this week. In the meantime, what dream fighting collaborations would you like to see?

He's said before that he'd like to see two running series. Mortal Kombat, and Mortal Kombat Versus. I don't see why that's a problem.

He's just throwing out ideas. I doubt that will happen (any time soon) especially as to what he said about who will be developing it, legal issues, approvals, etc...

A game built on the premise of testing the greatest beat 'em up icons against each other would be fantastic!

If it came back to a new tournament and a new generation of fighters, I'd be pretty happy with the MK team putting some effort in to represent the major rivals in their characters. Something with a bit more effort than Kobra (Ken). Facsimiles are the bread and butter of comics. C'mon!

Annual international competitions to rank fighters from all games.
Beat 'em up OLYMPICS with teams designed by each company.

FUN!!!

Turn on your light and they'll see you. Make a sound and they'll hear you. If you think it's scary being lost...

Just wait till you're found

I hope we see Mortal Kombat vs Guilty Gear sometime in the future, but that is most likely asking for too much.

The fighting game that has the highest chance of crossing over with Mortal Kombat is Killer Instinct.

No reason to doubt it. Doubt has brought us MK VS DC already.

be a good idea if they made each game a different franchise opponent. as long as the canon games keep coming, it'd be a good thing.

Out of all the possibilities, what i would really like to see is the already mentioned in the past, "Tekken vs Virtua Fighter".

I'm still doubting it, and I've never doubted about the MK vs DC game, I had a feeling that a crossover might happen sooner or later... mmm...yeah.

Even the hope of putting Shang Tsung and Akuma in the same game gives me goosebumps.

Ed Boon can stop with this idea, I think it is a terrible one. The only thing I would have possibly loved to have heard is that he is perhaps scrapping this DC vs MK and working with Capcom to do a Marvel VS DC that will feature Street Fighter and MK Characters, yet using the Tatsunoko vs Capcom Engine.



That's what I've been screaming since this games announcement. Since the rumor even.

DC vs Marvel = Win

They're doing it in the movie theaters anyway. Though I would like to see what it would be like to have Mortal Kombats' traditional look and feel, with the programming and everything done by the Capcom guys. *bam* There you go.

They're all Asian or Comic book influenced...So, I figure Anime would be a happy medium. You make that look realistic? Like, a little heavy on the Mortal Kombat influence, and you got something everybody wants to play.

Have the Capcom guys do the core fighting stuff(on and offline), have the Midway guys do the adventure//fighting game, and story things. Have the anime, and the comic book guys work on the look and feel of mixing the 4 franchises together properly. Everybody throw in extra content.

Feature characters from MK & SF as secrets or unlockables.

Roster?

DC: "The Justice League"

1. Superman
2. Batman
3. Wonder Woman
4. Green Lantern
5. Flash

Possible other: Doctor Fate, Catwoman, ect...
--
6. Darksied, or Lex Luthor, or even Lobo
7. The Joker, or Bane
8. Cheetah, Medusa, or Ares
9. Sinestro
10. Gorilla Grodd

Possible Others: King Pin..whatever..

Marvel: "The Avengers"

1. Captain America
2. Ironman
3. Thor
4. Spiderman
5. Ms Marvel

Possible Others: Wolverine, Incredible Hulk, Dr Strange, The Punisher, Mr Fantastic
--
6. Red Skull, Mr Sinister
7. Doctor Doom, MegaTron, Ultimo
8. Mephisto, Dracula, Thanos
9. Venom, Carnage, Doc Oct, Green Goblin
10. Cru, Mystique, Mogan Le Fay,

Possible others: Magneto, Juggernaught, Abomination

and on and on and on...

Get it done, ya know?
