Did I just miss it, or has no one posted the render of Jax yet?

Not sure if anyone posted a link here but it's been up on the official site for a week or so.

HQ Raiden Render

I really don't like Raidens costume in that pic. Hopefully it will look better in motion during gameplay. :\

Is Lobo going to be in this?
seems like a no-brainer

[MJB]

Seems like a "no-brainer" but no announcement has been made yet. It isn't lookin' good for the main man.

If he's in, I want Santa in as well.

Deathstroke render

MK Vs. DC Character List Outed By Achievements

Darkseid vs Shao Khan = Epic battle.  :thumbup:

[MJB]

Wow. Thanks for those links, Midnite.

• Baraka
• Batman
• Catwoman
• Darkseid
• Deathstroke
• Flash
• Green Lantern
• Jax
• Joker
• Kano
• Kitana
• Lex Luthor
• Liu Kang
• Raiden
• Scorpion
• Shang Tsung
• Shao Khan
• Shazam
• Sonya
• Sub Zero
• Superman
• Wonderwoman

So Baraka is in but Johnny Cage is out? Odd. Luthor and Darkseid FTW!

The Deathstroke render looks very accurate to the comic book look. :thumbup:

Luthor better have a battlesuit or something because I don't equate him to a fighter without one. I don't know what it is, but I find most of the list pretty lack luster and I hope there're hidden characters in it to make it better. I mean, the MK list looks blah. It's mostly the MK1-2 characters...minus Johnny, Mileena, Chameleon, Reptile, Jade, and Goro (and etc. if I missed any). Though I'm still not sold on the game, I hope it does well for DC, Midway/MK team, and the fan's sake.

And BG better hope Aquaman shows up as a hidden character. :P

[BWPS]

? Captain Marvel isn't Shazam!. So Captain Marvel isn't on that list, but Shazzam! is though we obviously saw Big Red in screenshots. So are they calling him Shazam! in the game? I'd think the developers wouldn't make a mistake like that. It makes me wonder if that list is real.

[MJB]

Cap Marvel is indeed being called "Shazam" in this game. Probably to do with Marvel owning the rights to the Captain Marvel name.

Lex is not a fighter unless he has the battle suit.  I would have prefer LOBO or Doomsday.

[MJB]

They will probably include the suit in some aspect. Probably won't be as bulky as the McGuinness version but then again what do I know?

omg i really love the details on their costumes!

Talks about tibits on Deathstroke, Green Lantern. Some new vids.

New gameplay footage

It shows the Big Cheese in action.

[bat1987]

This game just keeps getting better and better.

[BentonGrey]

I see a distinct lack of Aquaman...that doesn't make me happy.

[Midnite]

[MJB]

Captain Marvel would pwn Raiden. :P

-MJB

[docdelorean88]

I second that with a mighty SHAZAM!!! :lol:

[BentonGrey]

Ohhh yeah!  Ha, and Flash would demolish Barraka (sp?), but what I want to know is, what is with those hideous yellow gloves on the Flash?

[MJB]

Within reason the MK team got to add their own touches to the DCU characters costumes. Flash's yellow gloves is one of those touches.

-MJB

[BentonGrey]

The rest of their designs look pretty good, but that one is a pretty ugly addition. 

[The Hitman]

Or... maybe it's Barry Allen's (or Wally's, for that matter) new, post- Final Crisis costume?

[Midnite]

Or... maybe it's Barry Allen's (or Wally's, for that matter) new, post- Final Crisis costume?

No no, its just crappy art designs from the MK team.  :thumbdown:

Some screenshots posted on the site.

[MJB]

I think the cover looks good. The amount of detail they are trying to show is nice. My only gripe is that I'm not a fan of the blue/gray Batman suit, otherwise it get's the job done.

The screenies on Noob.com are reportedly all taken from the story mode. Looks like it will all be real time graphic, no pre rendered cut scenes.
