The first PlayStation 3 game I got was Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe. All in all, it is a good fighting game. Of course, it earned major points with my by putting in Hal Jordan as the Green Lantern (best super hero ever) but that is another post for another day.
Playing the game for the first few times, you can’t help yourself from saying, “Oh cool!” or “Hey, did you see that?”. They did a good job with making everybody’s special moves fairly unique and the stages all look great too.
As far as characters go, you have people from both Mortal Kombat and the DC comics. Now, I am happy to see Aqua Man was left out of the mix (who like Aqua Man?) however a few more substitutions could have been made.
For example: Take Jax out, and put in Johnny Cage.
Deathstroke is another one I might be able to do without, however the only other comic book villains people know have to do with the Batman franchise, and they already had Cat Woman and the Joker in there – so I see why they had to be a little different.
If you have played any other Mortal Kombat game in the past few years, the controls are pretty easy to get used to. I am happy I picked it up as my first PlayStation 3 game – and would highly recommend it.
