X-Ray Vision

I recently played Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe for about a week straight. I will admit it is not a great game, even with my bias towards anything to do with Batman and Green Lantern, but overall I found it pretty enjoyable. That could mainly be attributed to the fact everyone I played against was terrible and made me look amazing. The one thing I was really disappointed with was the special characters. Unfortunately I was so disappointed it ruined the entire game for me.

First off, you had to play through essentially the same story twice to unlock both special characters, Shao Kahn for Mortal Kombat and Darkseid for DC. The story wasn’t very good, I couldn’t skip a lot of the cut-scenes, and Wonder Woman never took her top off. The greatest disappointment, however, came after I unlocked these characters. I realized they were possibly the two worst guys in the game. Their moves were just atrocious. Darkseid in particular reeked of terribleness, and I quickly gave up using him at all. What is the point of making secret characters that are worse than the regular characters? Damn you Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe, you tricked me into wasting my time.
