I don't know if I understand what this is. Clearly it's a different Earth. OK, no problem there.

but......... Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe sucked big time. They've got a lot to prove here.

Re: Injustice: Gods Among US, A DC Super Hero Fighting Game

Not really -- they proved enough with MK9. MK vs DC was their last failure, even though I personally didn't think it was that bad. I can only assume part of the reason it wasn't better was because of the sinking ship that was Midway and another part being the fact that it was the first time they handled the franchise. Of course, I am strictly speaking about the gameplay.

When it comes to storytelling NRS isn't exactly top-notch. No offense to those guys (or anyone else that likes their writing), but the only way I think the story will be good is if they have someone from DC help write it up. You know, just like most superhero games are now.

Game should be fine as long as they stick to 2D. Although so far I don't have much of an opinion of this; need to see more.

Eh, I'm not really a fan of Mortal Kombat.

And this looks like a gimmicky Mortal Kombat.

When the fuck are we gonna get a Marvel vs. DC game? I don't even wanna be told that the game wouldn't sell. Because it would.

Wait, how is it a different Earth?

I would buy it any day of the week. Deadpool VS. Deathstrike.

On another note, I think this looks like a Mortal Kombat-clone. I just want a unique fighting game, I'm not saying it's gonna be bad, but if it's just Mortal Kombat with Batman and Superman instead of Sub-Zero and Scorpion, what's the point?

It's got nothing to do with that. It'll never happen for the same reason we won't ever see them crossover in the comics again: Disney and Warners have no interest in promoting each others characters.

The costumes are significantly different than their New 52 counterparts or even pre-Flashpoint costumes. That, and the name "Injustice" says to me that these versions of the characters are not good guys.

Re: Injustice: Gods Among US, A DC Super Hero Fighting Game

Isn't Harley Quinn's costume very similar to her current New 52 attire?

 

[Johnny Stooge]

Re: Injustice: Gods Among Us (DC Super Heroes)

I think she's wearing more clothes in this game.

On what exactly do you base this? Sure, it looks similar in the same way SFxT looks similar to SSFIV, but yet are different. It's the same developer, so of course it will look familiar. Doesn't mean that this is just MK with DC characters. The scale appears to be much bigger for one.

But yeah, I have to agree with Stooge in that it looks like a different Earth.

Like I said, it only looks like it. I'm a DC fan, so don't think I'm not gonna at least check it out.

I'd say the brutality in that vid would give the impression even without the title, but that's just me.

You were partially implying the assumption by saying "if" and asking "what's the point?". My point was that it is still too early to be saying anything like that.

The thought didn't even occur to me, nor do I see any relevance for you bring that up.

An obvious loophole to their previous issues of not being able to give the heroes fatalities. But since this isn't a Mortal Kombat title, I wonder if fatalities will even be an issue.


I loved MK9, its story mode was the most welcome addition to the fighting game genre since Ultras imo. I'm not digging the overall look of the game, personally. Though I think it's cool how similar this Batman looks to Nolan's, and the knives in Grundy's back is a nice touch. I liked MK vs DC well enough, despite thinking it would be stupid when they first announced it, but I don't think any super-heroes should be confined to their own fighting game. We'll see, though.

I don't think Ed Boon realizes how good a game MK: Shaolin Monks was. If this game played like that game, it would be off the fucking chain.

Re: Injustice: Gods Among Us (DC Super Heroes)

Last Mortal Kombat's story was interesting, but it dropped off the map for me (and most of the FGC) after about 3 days due to the bland gameplay. I couldn't get into the gameplay very much unless it was like 4 people doing tag-team, that actually made it fun. I'll wait to say anything about this and be patient for gameplay before judging though.

Re: Injustice: Gods Among Us (DC Super Heroes)

Does anyone else think that some of the characters resemble their future counterparts from DCUO? Especially the Flash

 

[rokudamia2]

Re: Injustice: Gods Among Us (DC Super Heroes)

That's the new 52 costumes to be exact.

 

[quiteMAD]

Re: Injustice: Gods Among Us (DC Super Heroes)

No it's not, all three are completely different universes/costumes. And I can see the similarities to Future Flash's armor. In the thumbnail for the video in the OP, I also thought that was Future Batman.
