If there are no finishing moves of any kind, I'll probably pass. I think WB/NRS are putting themselves in a difficult situation. If it does have finishers, people may blow it off as a Mortal Kombat clone, just with DC characters. If it doesn't have finishers, I think people may find it boring. I know I can't be bothered with fighting games without finishers.

The game looks promising, and the graphics are pretty stellar. I like the increased level of interactivity with the environment.

From the looks of things, I will definitely pre-order it, but I can't help but wonder how they'll handle the DLC and patches with this one. I'm sure they'll have more in store than MK9 did, though...

I was shocked and satisfied. Will be following this game..

I'm kind of bummed we're probably not going to see a new MK game until at least 2014 now.

I was thinking the same thing but I have a feeling it's going to be like MK vs DCU, with the heroes having brutal finishers and the villains having finishers that would kill someone.

Yeah I know, it sucks but I still have MK9 and maybe this game to keep me happy until the next MK comes out.

After watching the trailer again, I think we all could take a guess at who's making it into this game Mokap - Laugh so far we've got for the heroes: Batman, Superman, The Flash, Wonder Woman and for villains: Solomon Grundy, Harley Quinn, Lex Luthor and I have a gut feeling that Doomsday is the Sub-Boss and Darkseid will be the main boss.

Here's the roster I'm hoping for:

Darkseid or Mongul - Main Boss

Doomsday - Sub Boss

Heroes:
Batman
Superman
The Flash
Wonder Woman
Green Lantern
Captain Marvel
Nightwing
Aquaman
Martian Manhunter
Green Arrow
Hawkman
Supergirl
Robin
Booster Gold
Doctor Fate

Villains:
Solomon Grundy
Harley Quinn
Lex Luthor
Gorilla Grodd
The Joker
Sinestro
Catwoman
Black Manta
Deathstroke
Bizarro
Captain Cold
Black Adam
Killer Croc
Cheetah
Brainiac

DLC:
1. Bane
2. Ares or Lobo
3. Poison Ivy
4. Black Canary
5. Red Tornado
6. Huntress

2014 was the year I expected a new MK game.

I love the idea except for one thing. Wonder Woman needs to take those goddamn pants off. The only time she ever wore pants was for that one JL reboot cover and that pilot. Lose the pants. Also needs more Jason Todd. Ugh Harley Quinn...I want me some Ivy, Catwoman, Cheetah, Lady Shiva, and/or some of the Furies to name a few. Also needs Bane, I mean if the concept is the possibility of superheroes going rouge, why not the only man to not only defeat the dark knight but the only one who broke him? And Batman looks bad ass (course that's usually a given).
