The Joker's fatality in MK vs DCU is AWESOME.
covah | 10:01 AM on 08.22.2008 55 comments




You can skip through the video to get what I'm talking about, unless you want to hear about MK vs DCU's "rage mode." But as to my knowledge this is the first time we've seen the Joker in action and the first time we've seen an actual fatality. Now when the joker was announced I remember posting a comment here saying "Pencil trick fatality or GTFO" but quite honestly, the real fatality doesn't disappoint me at all. I watched it and thought midway through "lame" then the REAL deal comes out and it was a major "OH SHIT" moment.

classic Joker.

I thought I read some where that the DC characters weren't getting fatality because it's out of character. AND THAT FATALITY WAS AWESOME!

That was a really cool fatality.

What's up with Joker using the "Notre Dame Fighting Irish" stance?

@Char

I think they're just trying to give him a weird feel, like the guy said in the video I cant really see the Joker as a brawler so giving him a sort of "Put up your dukes" stance just makes him goofy.

I hate that this game exists, but I gotta admit that's a pretty cool fatality.

Yeaaaaaaaah, you don't read the comics do you? Cus, shooting someone? Uh the joker has done a lot worse.

it'd be awesome if his other fatality is to bludgeon someone with a crowbar,

Or shoot someone in the back, and take pictures and make their dad watch!

Holy FUCK BALLS, I will have to buy this game now!

MK has been one of the only fighting games I could stand and being able to see DC fatalities is going to be so awesome!

@Free touch

thus, the "a lot worse" things The Joker has done. I was going to bring up the Robin and Barbra Gordon things buuut I figured it would of been a waste haha.

I would have preferred him beating the character to a pulp with a crowbar and leaving him inside a building about to explode.

Feh. It was an ok fatality. I mean, it made me lol but IMO fatalities need to be stupidly over the top and all this was was the joker shooting someone in the head.

I know people are messing around when they mention the crowbar but i would generally prefer it.

Reckon it would be a lot more shocking if the joker actually beat them to a pulp after the fake gun rather than actually shoot them.

That was a really awesome fatality. If they put the pencil trick in as another one, on top of this one, I'm reserving two copies.

Do want.
