Fun game, but noth without its issues. As with most games. There is a list of things that could have been done better.
First off. Here's the fun stuff.
Game looks great. Nice graphics, Animations are quite decent and for a Superhero/villan game. The pace and beat em up style seems to fit just right. The story mode was done quite well and kept me quite entertained and fit both universes. Weather it's the battle between realms on the MK side or the Infinate Crisis theme from DC the story made more sence than I thought it was going to. The voice acting I was actually quite impressed with, Kano sounded like an Ausi and Liu Kang sounded Chinese, as well as having everyones voice sound like it was ment for that character. (Unlike Guile from street fighter, all American with a *** accent =p ) Just nice to see they put the effort into voice acting wich many games just dont seem to care about.
On the bad side.
I find the game a little to simplistic. I remember Fatalitys being somthing you could realy show off with, people were impressed when you actually preformed that long complex series of manuvers to really end the game on a vishous note. Now I sorta find them a waste of time. A 5 year old can preform them. (Down Down Forward Forward B - Superman brutality) not so complex is it? And once you've seen both and the only 2 fatalitys for your character a hand full of times, they get kinda old. Not to mention some of them just seem kinda lame and could have been more creative. Shao Kahn, and Darkseid . . . . No Fatalitys. Comon! I really wanted to Scorch someone with the full force of the Omega Beams. Oh well. Perhaps a content patch. I've also noticed while playing that there are a few hit box errors when it comes to fighting people who can Teleport, ie: Raiden, Shang Stung, Flash, Captain Marvel, sometimes you can hit them while they are behind you and your foot went in the opposite direction. Just a little Gripe there, no big deal though. Last but certainly not least, Missing Characters. Reptile, Johnny Cage, Supergirl, Martion Manhunter, Doomsday, Cyrax, Kung Liao, Some of peoples favorites, Just didn't make the cut. Again, really hoping for extra downloadable content.
All in all, I'm still having alot of fun with the game and as I get better at the combos and Pro moves and the physics of the game I only see it providing more and more hours of competitive fun.
And thats the way I see it, perhaps I need glasses =P
