Fatalities will be altered for MK vs DC

Ok really...does this image sit well with anyone else?


Having Superman's heart ripped out by an uncaring Scorpion is not what I call, shall we say, a pleasant experience. Apparently our friends over at Midway agree. Ed Boon had this to say about the new fatalities we will see in MK vs. DC.

The names of these moves, and the level of violence we use, are to be determined. But it's certainly not a feature we plan on eliminating from the series.

So there you have it, there will still be "fatalities", but probably not enough to evoke anything crazy from the people who hate the series for its violent acts. The game is locked into a T rating so I wouldn't imagine anything worse than what we see in Street Fighter games. I have to admit, because the game is T and because the fatalities are going to be scaled down, I am actually more interested in playing the game. Call me crazy, but Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman just don't mix when it comes to blood and gore.
