Great tip Old Skool, thanks! I’ve added your tip above the fatalities listings (and a thanks at the bottom), so people new to the series will know when to perform them.

I have no idea wtf you all are B*TCHING about. Any fan of both mortal kombat and the dc universe should love this game. ok granted sub zero cant do his precious spine rip but so f*ckin what? if everybody does the same f*ckin fatalities they did in the original then the game would be boring. the fatalities are sweet. the story line was phenomenal. kombo challenge is that exactly- a CHALLENGE. if you cant do it dont b*tch about it being too hard. instead play the f*cking game and get good at it. i read someone say “it sucks cuz you cant be dark khan” well if you could be dark khan then the game would be too easy. i play on very hard and with darkseid and shao khan it makes the game too easy. its like you guys have nothing better to do then sit on the internet and b*tch about how much the game sucks. if it sucks so much, why dont you take it up to gamestop and trade it in for animal crossing.

[Mod edit: Cursing removed. We ban people for insulting here, so be warned. Besides, would you listen/react to someone else calling you an f-ing moron? I don't think so. So talk to other the way you wish to be spoken to yourself, with respect.]

Dude … get a girlfriend. You’ve just had a huge rant yourself … I have an idea; how about you do us all a favour and get back to your console and finish the game on “very hard” again … or perhaps try something new … go to a pub, yeah?

I can’t unlock the two characters, even after beating both story modes. I hold r1 and press X and it does nothing. Is it a specific difficulty level you need to unlock both characters?
