As for what you said about it trying to be mainstream..
You might be right. But whats wrong with that? Being in the fighting game community for a long time, I know that most fighting game fans look down on Mortal Kombat because it isn't a "real fighter" due to the fact that it doesn't have super moves, super jumps, dashes, guards, tactical rolls, etc etc etc.
So whats wrong with them trying to step it up a bit? Would you rather they just put out MK games with the same old mechanics, as if they are totally oblivious to what fighting game fans expect today?
(And now, directed once again to nobody in particular..)
Anyone crying that a crossover like this is a bad idea..ok..
I didn't see anyone complaining when Marvel Vs Capcom came out.
Just give this game a chance! I know you all think DC comics is lame, I know you all think Mortal Kombat isn't cool anymore...but jeez..if a game like Street Fighter IV is all hyped up despite the fact that its just Street Fighter II with cel shading and a few new unoriginal characters, then why can't you guys give this game a chance?
Put aside your pride..your inner fanboy-ism, and try to look on the bright side.
