Injustice 2.

oh no. is it new lobo?
I kinda meant what they did to him in the new 52. Hopefully if he's in the new game it will be Lobo classic instead of the whiny Prince of Persia wanna be.
 
Terry McGinnis vs the lack of background
 
Terry's mad that he looks like shit, probably
i know I would be
 
well, for Batman Beyond, the decided they'd start Terry McGinnis' New 52 storyline by killing him off in the past, and having a slightly older Tim Drake replace him, because that's what the fans like? just the costume? not the guy who had to deal with the death of his dad, teenage issues, and the fact that he was genetically spliced with Bruce Wayne's DNA from back when Terry was still in his dad's pants, right? who cares about that stuff?

and for Superboy, they took a really likable character who dealt with issues such as "am I gonna become Superman or Luthor? I mean I have both of their DNA" and picking up the pieces of friendships that he left behind after he died in Infinite Crisis, and instead made him a weirdo little prick whose only likable factor is that he has a tron suit I guess.

so when I clamor on about Terry McGinnis and Conner Kent being added into the game, it's because I got jipped out of them in their own media homes.
Then you would have liked a little show called young justice
 
WRONG. Radio silence ends now. Darkseid might be a pre order bonus

Here's a clearer picture of it, supposedly the boxart. He looks like a total dork

They should at least go in a more consistent direction and dress him like when he fought Doomsday with a mother box giving him extra tools

Maybe go REALLY all out and give the boyscout a Lightsaber

Poison Ivy?
.... Ccccccccccccool...
Good character but I never thought her powers would translate well into a fighting game
ROBIN THOUGH AND BRAINIAC HOLY SHIT

Also, if you check the Website, they list preorders for the "Ultimate Edition" which gives you a cool Batman on the cover, as well as some skins for characters (Reverse Flash, John Stewart, and a Super Girl) that change their voices and some abilities...
Oh, and of course, DLC characters.
9 DLC Characters.
They have 9 DLC characters planned that will come with the Ultimate Edition...over the course of a few months, of course.
 
and they're alllll mortal kombat characters.
 
I actually might consider getting Ultimate Edition, since that is a considerably amount of stuff, plus John Stewart, I'll have to see the price though, assuming it's the bog-standard of $90 though that shouldn't be too bad.
Hopefully thye made some good decisions, but chances are at least one is Sub-Zero
 
If the pc port isn't shit again and they don't abandon dev like MKX (that needed a ton of time and noise to have it back), I'll buy it

Well no PC version announced so far, so... :P
 
Did some looking
Digital Deluxe is $80 (3 DLC chars)
Ultimate Edition is $100, even with some Amazon Prime savings that's still pretty pricey.
I'm still considering it, it's just a question of if some of this shit is exclusive forever or not.
 
I'm curious to see Darkseid's perk in action. Hope the Omega beans move in cool angles like in the comics, not just a basic homing attack
 
No need to pre order or anything. That's nice
 
Poison Ivy?

WAIT
*watches trailer*
IT'S THE ARKHAM CITY ROBIN YES!

As for Poison Ivy, while she canonically really only works when setting up an environment for ambush, I could see it translated as a zoning/trapping character.

Also, 2 on 2 in that trailer...?
 
It's also Damian Wayne Robin, because he uses a sword.
Soooo.
If this is just from the trailer, he's using a staff there. It is still a somewhat different design, but it's clearly inspired by the Arkham City armor+hood.
 
There's an extra screenshit of him using a sword, so it's Damian Wayne + that design I guess

According to a leak, we also might get Mr. Freeze... as an alt costume for Captain Cold, I'd take that.
 
Assuming the leak is correct (and I am), Mr. Freeze is certainly an alt for Captain Cold. I'd guess that Cheetah and Zoom will also be premium skins for Catwoman and Flash, respectively.
 
I got reminded, did anyone else found it weird how beta FAQ mentions that the game mode will be "1v1"?

Could it be a suggestion that 2v2 from MK9 is making a return? :D

I mean it's kinda weird to mention a 1v1 mode so specificaly.

2v2 in MK9 was mad hype
And made me me buy the game to play Co op with my girlfriend.

2x2 and dramatic battle is good to attract casuals.
 
Unfortunately turns out MKX also used the "1v1" line in their beta for GGPO so this means pretty much nothing right now. :(
