No.
Mortal Kombat characters are fictional and not very well known. They are also kinda cheesy.
Raiden and Fujin wouldn't make sense in God of War IV. If they do make an appearance it means Santa Monica ran out of ideas for the game and they're just milking it. |
This post is ridiculous ... im surprised nobody has commented on it.
MK characters not well know? MK is a very established IP with more than 30 million( thats without other games to old to track) pieces of software sold, the latest MK sold is near 3 Mill second or third best selling fighter. Waaaay more presence than GoW( movies animated show). MK fictional!? so is GoW and every other video game.
No VGKing there were angry gods killing other gods in the past, no talking status ext.

Yes, God of War is fictional as well, but its based on legendary myths, unlike Mortal Kombat which is completely made up stuff.
I like Mortal Kombat, I own the reboot and I know the characters, they just don't fit in the God of War universe. I don't want them there just like Mortal Kombat faithful didn't want Kratos in Mortal Kombat.
Anyway, on PS3, God of War has a bigger presence than Mortal Kombat. Just look at sales.
Mortal Kombat HD(PS3) - 1.55m
Mortal Kombat Vs DC Universe(PS3) - 1.52m
Total - 3.07m
God of War 3 - 4.30m
God of War Collection - 2.46m
God of War Origins Collection - 0.30m
God of War Trilogy - 0.12m
Total - 7.17m
]God of War 3 alone outsold the Mortal Kombat games on PS3! Hell a collection of PS2 games outsold the MK reboot! Now that's the power of Kratos!
Fun Fact: Based on VgChartz data, God of War games on PS3 stand at 7.17m which is more than all the PS2 Mortal Kombat games which stand at 6.21m. Thta's really impressive since the PS3 install base is so much lower than that of the PS2!

typical SONY fan to cherry pick games to meet help his agenda. You specifically said MK was not wll known. I completely dispute that claim then you cut it down to SONY consoles. That was not your original claim.

Totally agree with you xxain. The truth is, no matter how you (VGKing) tunnel your view of how software sells correlate with console owners, you still have look at the history of the fanbase each franchise and its quite obvious that at this point there are more people that are aware of the MK franchise and its characters over the GOW franchise. With that point aside I feel that you are free to feel how you want to feel about not including MK characters to the next GOW game, but just because you don't want it to happen doesn't mean you have to lie or come up with this false logic to prove a point. Personally i wouldn't mind either if they included those characters or not. Honestly i feel that if they did included some essential characters like Raiden(as mentioned earlier) in a tasteful manner then it could provide for a larger fanbase for both franchises in the future.
BTW- ficition is fiction no matter how you put it.
