Mortal Kombat vs DC is being toned down to maintain an ESRB rating of T (Teen) for the game. Notably, The Joker's "gag gun" Fatality move, in which he fires a prank pistol at his opponent before pulling out a real gun and shooting them in the head, has been revised to be less graphic. Now The Joker simply fires the real gun off-screen, with the violence not visible to the player.Kotaku: MK vs. DC: The Joker's Fatality Gets T-Rated (October 24, 2008) The Mortal Kombat series is infamous for its exaggerated use of gratuitous violence.Wikipedia: Fatality Mortal Kombat
Joker Fatality Description

Anyway, it's been changed up a bit, toned down to just slightly less than awesome to secure that highly coveted T-rating that Midway and Warner Bros. are so adamant about. In the latest build, Joker still whips out his prank gun, a "BANG!" flag unfurling. Unfortunately, you won't see the follow up of Joker shooting someone in the face; that actually happens off screen now, the headshot safely out of sight.Kotaku: MK vs. DC: The Joker's Fatality Gets T-Rated (October 24, 2008) -Kotaku.com
