	thewastedyouth posted 28/05/2012, 04:14 How come this GAME WAS NOT RELEASED IN JAPAN? Message \| Report
	Commando posted 29/01/2011, 01:26 1 Million!!! (US) Message \| Report
	Commando posted 19/01/2011, 06:08 wow just under 7 thousand below the million mark in US... GO MKvsDCU! Message \| Report
	Samara360 posted 24/01/2010, 10:05 Pretty good game, but the gore is a disgrace to Mortal Combat ( I don't own this game but played it briefly) Message \| Report
	Burning Typhoon posted 11/11/2009, 01:49 Tekken 6 on 360 wont do well... Think about it, everyone knew from the start that this was a PS360 game. But, there are people who believe Tekken 6 is PS3 exclusive. Also, fighting games aren't as big as shooters, and that's what you buy a 360 for. MW2 Vs. Tekken 6 = a loss for Tekken every time on 360. It's great this game sold so well, but, you have to think of how many people just want just one single fighter, or other factors. Oh, and MKvDC never had to go against MW2. I hope this game says far ahead of sales Vs. Tekken so that namco learns a lesson. Message \| Report
	MonstaMack posted 01/10/2009, 11:03 I still can't believe this hasn't been on sale in the US. I've been waiting for a $25 or $30 price point forever. Congrats to Midway for keeping this at a high price point and still selling pretty damn well. Message \| Report
	Boneitis posted 01/10/2009, 09:16 @ jonkoncak Better yet, lets hope the new Mortal Kombat games play more like the classics. Why break away from what made the series famous? Message \| Report
	jonkoncak posted 09/06/2009, 03:56 Just hope that the next owners fo the MK name will release a sequel w/DC characters. This is a great game. Message \| Report
	LordMatrix posted 10/05/2009, 02:44 Soul Calibur 4, now Mortal Kombat VS DC Universe and soon Street Fighter 4 I bet Tekken 6 will be a million seller later this year also! Are fighting games coming back? Message \| Report

	Jexy posted 25/04/2009, 06:12 that was overall PS360, obviously, or there would be a million copies on the shelves. Given that stores only seem to have a couple copies of the game leads me to believe VGC is right on with the numbers. and the sales aren't done, so it should pass a million and considering it doesn't have a japan release, has done just as good if not better than SC4 and maybe even SF4 Message \| Report
	boxydancer posted 23/04/2009, 02:24 Wow, these sales are really impressive. Did almost as well as SC4 despite far less advertising. Message \| Report
	thetonestarr posted 21/04/2009, 05:15 @Jexy - Is that MK vs. DC as a whole, or one specific console? MK vs. DC as a whole, we've got 1.85m tracked, which is sold to consumers. Midway is reporting sold to retailers, so it's likely that we're slightly overtracked here. Also: I now have my hands on EVERY main-series Mortal Kombat to date except this one. DO WANT.

	Jexy posted 13/04/2009, 06:11 in their recent 10-K filing, midway reported selling over 1.9 million copies of the game Message \| Report
	Gabriel84 posted 03/04/2009, 02:33 0.96 m now :o Even the Ps3 version could pass 1 m eventually I think Message \| Report

	Jexy posted 24/03/2009, 06:54 nice adjust up, more in lines with the 1.8 mill shipped since there aren't that many on the shelves Message \| Report

	black7xxx7 posted 15/02/2009, 07:38 when will midway learn and make a true mortal kombat with original fatalities thats what made mortal kombat what it is today then they abandon fatalities and make it something stupid. hopefully the next mortal kombat title is a true mortal kombat and have fatalities like the first 3 mortal kombats i remember when liu kang turned to a dragona and ate his opponent head off that was awesome hopefully they will take some inspiration from super street fighter 4 and see that 2d fighters still work Message \| Report

	Jexy posted 28/01/2009, 05:04 Official Midway accouncement just said that MK/DC has sold over 1.8 million units as of now including the Kollectors Editions on PS360. Message \| Report

	Barozi posted 26/01/2009, 11:42 Actually it sold good and Midway is already developing the next Mortal Kombat game Message \| Report
	Egghead posted 07/01/2009, 02:18 Midway need to badly restructure and shed a lot weight. The strength of this can keep them going for a while Message \| Report
	Majin-Tenshinhan posted 05/01/2009, 03:04 Combined sales for 360 and PS3-version is now at 1,06 million :) Awesome! Message \| Report
	Egghead posted 05/01/2009, 02:01 Yes but being in the holiday and releasing in the holiday, BIG difference. We all know the hype and the sales a game gets at launch is a huge part of the lifetime sales Message \| Report
	Jexy posted 05/01/2009, 01:41 The holiday does have a lot to do with its sales, but SCIV was also out during this holiday and didn't see any sales spike. SCIV had an opening 3 times as big, but fell hard and fast on PS360... MKDC had a small opening and has been much more consistant, although a dropoff is obvious and expected after the holiday. Message \| Report
	Jexy posted 05/01/2009, 01:18 I'd like Doomsday and Lobo from the DC side, although both would be Boss like characters with their strength, and I want Reptile and Noob Saibot... although there are many more solid choices they could go with as well, like Kung Lao, Ermac, and heck.... Johnny Cage for some humor :p Message \| Report
	Egghead posted 05/01/2009, 01:14 Thats only because its come out in the holiday Message \| Report
	Barozi posted 04/01/2009, 09:48 Future million seller on the 360. Even more surprising: I think it'll outsell Soul Calibur IV Message \| Report
	Jexy posted 29/12/2008, 09:40 I have 400 pts just waiting around for DLC for this.... I hope Boon gets his way and comes out with them as a late Holiday present Message \| Report
	Egghead posted 27/12/2008, 11:58 Lets hope the success of this game keeps Midway affloat for a while longer Message \| Report

	Gabriel84 posted 21/12/2008, 11:13 sales r going up everywhere good sign! great for midway Message \| Report
	Jexy posted 14/12/2008, 04:02 Great game! The only thing it needs are some DLC characters and I'll be set! Great gameplay and graphics, and just fun to pick up and play against a friend! Message \| Report
	davepete22 posted 04/12/2008, 04:31 this game is great. A much needed improvement to the series and savior for midway. MK foreva. Message \| Report
	OmegaRugalv3 posted 03/12/2008, 06:30 I thought its better than the other 3D Mortal Kombats as this one felt more like the classic 2D games which are still better than all of these 3D games. Message \| Report
	Egghead posted 03/12/2008, 03:13 Holding steady, hopefully this gives Midway some MUCH needed cash Message \| Report
	Majin-Tenshinhan posted 02/12/2008, 01:52 I love this game. The other 3D MKs were waaaaayyy too gimmicky. Message \| Report
	DanBal76 posted 28/11/2008, 07:27 Disappointing. It's worst than the last gen MKs (Deadly Alliance, Deception and Armageddon). It has less combos and the gameplay had a turn for the worst (why the hell hold the L trigger or use the analog stick for 3D movement?). A shame. Message \| Report
	McDonaldsGuy posted 28/11/2008, 02:23 Seems like a barebones MK to me. No unlockable characters (except for 2 bosses), no Krypt, no alternate costumes, no minigames (ie chess, puzzle, etc. etc.), and stuff like that. Has good gameplay though. I wonder if DC will allow gore DLC for MK characters and bad guys? Just no fatalities for Superman and Batman. I don't see why not, Batman movies are usually very violent (just watch RETURNS or TDK or even Batman89) and Superman comics are violent, anyways. I mean Superman DIES and it's pretty bloody IIRC... so why not? Message \| Report
	Barozi posted 28/11/2008, 01:10 I'm surprised by the very strong first week NA sales. Message \| Report
	SSSBOLIMAR posted 22/11/2008, 09:34 dont under estimate this game its really good amazing graphics and great gameplay evn though it might not seem like the bloody mk your used to but this is a great fighter 8.5/10 like OXm said Message \| Report
