NetherRealm attempt an MK versus DC crossover with a tamer system to clear the rating bar. The fan service is generous, the story mode well written, but hardcore fans miss the raw violence that defined the series' core identity.

Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe (Xbox 360) price, value & rarity
At the close of a won fight, the game invites you to finish off your opponent with a “fatality,” a choreographed killing of almost virtuoso gory inventiveness. You execute the button combo with care, proud to land a spectacular dismemberment, without dwelling too much on the fact that you're mostly drilling the art of theatrical murder.
