Well, at least the developer was honest about "borrowing" gameplay concepts from other fighting games.
Nothing wrong with that since no fighting game can be 100% original from the ground-up, especially one like "Injustice."

Okay I think that was solomon grundy, even in comic book standards that kick was ridiculously unreal lol
Wait did batman just kick bane or somebody thru a building..................really LMAO
G-haaaaaaaah! The thought of reducing a superhero game into a cut-rate arcade fighter is so disgusting I am revisiting this topic to post my disdain again!
@tgwolf Here comes Hater number 1 xD
Chillax bro, give the game a chance. Don't judge it or trust reviews before you test it yourself ;-)
1 Like As long as they include awsome villains like the Joker, Darkseid, Doomsday, Bane and Lobo. I'm sold out! I'd love to see Hal Jordan and Sinestro too.
1 Like Every fighting game should have at least 40-50 characters to keep things interesting. If they picked the right ones I'm fine with 24 though.
1 Like The problem is also balancing the characters, with every character added, that's another character that needs to be tested out against every single character to ensure one or two characters can't easily dominate the rest of the roster. Also having a lot of characters also sometimes tends to create clones or semi clones.
I am very curious about this game since I did love MK9.
1 Like Waite, Back is block. Interesting. Im already excited about this game, but know im even more intrigued. Japan is going to love that back is block because it allows for a game of frames. A risk and reward for attacking with certain moves.
It has the new mortal kombat graphics and feel. At the same theres like street fighter, blazblue type of fighting in there as well. Awesome!!
2 Like he talks about popular characters but i dont see any of the green lanterns.
AS A HUGE GREEN LANTERN FAN IAM DISAPPOINTED.
Most of the popular Japanese fighting games stuck in the past for too long, yes I'm talking about Tekken, Steet Fighter, Soul Calibur and MK. But this and Dead or Alive 5 looks promising though.
I would be most interested in more of a beat-em-up action fighter, whereas I would be far less interested in yet another arcade fighter.
@nini200 If I understand your sentiments as a protest for her fashion 'sense' then I sympathize--and I'm a male!
1 Like @tgwolf Funny that you immediately think I'm a female just because I want Poison Ivy in a fighting game. Sorry but I'm a male as well and Poison Ivy is my favorite Batman character because she is a good villain not because of her fashion sense. If you read the comics where poison ivy has Green Skin, you'd know how dangerous Poison Ivy actually is. Out of Kyodai Ken, Ra's Al Gul, Phantasm, Bane, Clayface, Red Hood and others, Poison Ivy is still my favorite and she can add a ton of creative gameplay to the mix. Clayface could add alot of creative gameplay as well. Clay Attacks could be very dangerous.
Why she was not in MK vs DC is beyond me. She would've made a PERFECT compliment to Reptile. Acid vs Poison would've been a great match.
@westsiderz28 I hope it is 'very dark' but I'm afraid it would be dull and I blame the arcade-style fighting genre they relegated to...shameful.
I thought, "How would I get the Japanese interested in a DC fighting game?" I see I'm not alone in thinking Teen Titans.
