Have you noticed the curious absence of Johnny Cage, Goro and Aquaman from the latest Mortal Kombat game? Have they retired? Are they sucking back mai-tais somewhere in the Bora Bora? Did they decide to sit this game out in protest over the whole notion of a MK-DC crossover?

No, apparently they've simply "vanished from existence."

This was conveniently explained in the comic book that comes with the US$ 70 collector's edition of Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe (Xbox 360, PS3). Shown in the comic book panel below, Dark Khan narrates what happened when he brought the MK and DC universes into collision:

Ouch. A Fatality would have been less cruel.

Hehehe

Yeah, Dark Kahn was soooo powerful, not only were those beings vanished from existence. He managed make all the excessive violence and extreme bloodshed disappear too. ^_^

what?

This doesn't make sense at all. The intro of the game makes reference to the end of MK3, in which Shao Kahn's invasion of Earth Realm failed. If that was the case, Cage would be dead. Plus, the endings are such a mix of things, it doesn't make much sense at all.

This is Funny

this is what happens in crative/not socreative writing when there isnt much of purpose of the fact that makein Aquaman in this would just be tastless even though this whole concept isnt in good taste but it IS a decent and well made game at heart but My theory is there was a lot of "ah lets put em in a sequel" or "damn this is kinda hard make him in this game, WTH is he ganna do" Goro is the only exeption in in my theory I have no "real reason" to think of why hes not in it same thing happens in most 1st cross over games some major main chars dont make the cut so they cameo them in comics and other related media. sorry typin on PS3 is tough sometimes
