Oh boy, I can't wait for 'Batman Fighters - and some other guys'

You mean "Guys that'll make the game sell (feat. the Justice League)"

 

[Angel Abaddon]

Well, that's a definite buy now. Nightwing is my favourite Bat family character, and my fiancée is a Catwoman fangirl.

 

[RM8]

If I ever buy this I'll play as Catwoman. Nice, I guess.

But dat MK gameplay :/

 

[AppleMIX]

Looks good, I HATE Catwomen though.

 

[Naite]

I kinda dig the costume, but her entire head looks pretty awful.

Looking just at her movelist, she currently doesn't seem that much interesting compared to the rest of the known cast.

 

[ezekial45]

I sure hope they don't use that stupid design of Bane. Comic Bane plz.

If they do, then what will set him apart from Solomon Grundy? Isn't he the 'Hulk' like character for the roster?

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Oracle should be the announcer

 

[GeorgioCostanzaX]

I sure hope they don't use that stupid design of Bane. Comic Bane plz.

You know it looks terrible in stills but the gas mask is pretty menacing in the actual film.

 

[Galdelico]

Solution: alternate costumes.

I really hope so.
Not really feeling this pseudo-robotic armour design (dunno if it comes from the actual comic books or if the concept is original): it reminds me of how Body Blows Galactic looked, compared to the original Body Blows.

 

[Roto13]

still waiting

Movie Bane couldn't possibly be less Bane.

 

[shaowebb]

This character is looking GOOD.

Rushdown dash, crumples, long combo strings, fast normals, whip has huge range and can extend combos as folks fall out/be used to control space, pressure game from hell.

New Kabal?

 

[sleepykyo]

If they do, then what will set him apart from Solomon Grundy? Isn't he the 'Hulk' like character for the roster?

I guess Solomon Grundy would always be Hulk mode while Bane would be more sometimes Hulk mode, er venom injected Bane v. venom withdrawal Bane. Basically a timed power up ala Juggernaut or Hakan oil.

New Kabal?

Looks more like a Freddy+Mileena hybrid to me.

 

[Khezu]

For comparison sake, here is what she was like in MK vs DC.

And her official trailer from it.

 

[Card Boy]

Not liking the design, she looks like the Wicked Witch of the West in Injustice.

Heres the DC vs Mortal Kombat version.

and the Arkham City/modern day comic book version.

 

[Spring-Loaded]

This is where I post how I would be okay with all these Batman characters if it were a Batman fighting game and how I'd want Batman to have a super titled "Planning" where the action will pause and show how he prepared something in advance that was specific to the person he was fighting, leading to them taking a bunch of damage from it afterward.

 

[Mechanized]

I think she looks awesome. Costume and gameplay. Also I don't get the complaints about the animation. Looks fine to me.

 

[Thores]

Ten times more suprising than Catwoman's inclusion in this game: her jumpsuit zipper not being zipped down to her navel

 

[ThatCrazyGuy]

Thank god for that. Always looked cheesy with all the cleavage hanging out.

 

[Spinluck]

Looking forward to this game.

 

[RM8]

Lol, this is awful. Even if I don't think Injustice looks too good, they have improved a lot since MK vs DC.

 

[deim0s]

Feels MK-ish that's why.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

so that's how many Batman characters now? three? four if we count Grundy?

 

[ThatCrazyGuy]

ManBat, Croc incoming!

 

[Khezu]

Just please NRS, don't give her EX dash any armor frames, nothing good could come from that.

NOTHING!

 

[Card Boy]

5

Batman
Grundy
Catwoman
Harley Quinn
Nightwing

I'm sure they will chuck in Joker eventually.

 

[Marz]

Good God I would love to enjoy this game since i'm a big DC fan but that MK fighting style with the wonky hitboxes and awful animations is such a turn off.

Gameplay looks.......stiff?

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Pretty sure Grundy counts as a justice league villian and not batman.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Not liking the design, she looks like the Wicked Witch of the West in Injustice.

Heres the DC vs Mortal Kombat version.



and the Arkham City/modern day comic book version.

I hate the open cleavage and cat collar in Arkham City. Looks like it was designed by a horny teenager.

 

[Card Boy]

Pretty sure Grundy counts as a justice league villian and not batman.

Maybe but he is usually Batmans and Supermans enemy. Maybe a bigger nerd can settle it lol.

I hate the open cleavage and cat collar in Arkham City. Looks like it was designed by a horny teenager.

She looks like that in the comics aswell. It's not restricted to games.

 

[Gattsu25]

Yes, terrible design. Truly wretched.

 

[Glix]

Maybe but he is usually Batmans and Supermans enemy. Maybe a bigger nerd can settle it lol.

Grundy is not a "Bat Villain" even though he has fought him.

 

[Thores]

She looks like that in the comics aswell. It's not restricted to games.

Something having a precedent doesn't make it not stupid.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Maybe but he is usually Batmans and Supermans enemy. Maybe a bigger nerd can settle it lol.

Still don't like it there either. Lee's Catwoman from the Hush run was better than new 52 Catwoman.

 

[Alfredo]

Boon retweeted a few tweets asking for Lobo in the game. That gives me hope.

 

[hydragonwarrior]

Will Superman be holding a bar of kryptonite when he fights her? I'm wondering how they'll deal with the strength differences...

 

[HK-47]

I hate the open cleavage and cat collar in Arkham City. Looks like it was designed by a horny teenager.

Thats because because it was designed for horny teenagers, like most catwoman designs.

 

[Shogmaster]

Her animations are HORRIBLE. Stilted and awkward. No fluidity or grace what so ever.

But then again, in this game you have Catwomen going fisticuffs mano to mano with Superman, WW and Flash, so I guess I'm asking too much out of this license milking drivel...

 

[infinityBCRT]

Its like Nether Realm Studios never got past the animation quality from Mortal Kombat 3.

I cant watch these videos and not think of the old 2-D digitized MK games from 20 years ago.

Maybe you should check out a 60 FPS video of the game: http://gamersyde.com/download_injustice_gods_among_us_sdcc_trailer-27639_en.html

Looks fine to me.

 

[Khezu]

Technically he was originally a Green Lantern villain, OG old man GL, alan scott, who is now a young gay man in the reboot.

 

[Squire]

That's enough Bat characters.

There'll be one more if anything. The brand is so big it's hard to ignore and, to be honest, unrealistic to expect them to. There were four Pokemon characters in Smash Bros. Melee; there totally didn't need to be. But yeah, I think NR knows they can't go that far with Batman.

Catwoman looks really good, really fun to play. Cool they brought back Grey DeLisle to do the voice.

 

[Data West]

Thats because because it was designed for horny teenagers, like most catwoman designs.

It's part of her character. Why wouldn't she have that? She uses her looks to her advantage. It's not like Poison Ivy or Harley where it's completely pointless.

 

[Grecco]

Prefer her comicbook/ac look but still looks better than Harley Quinn for instance

 

[Khezu]

Maybe you should check out a 60 FPS video of the game: http://gamersyde.com/download_injustice_gods_among_us_sdcc_trailer-27639_en.html

Looks fine to me.

It still retains some of the stiff animations, but ya like MK9, this does look a lot better at 60FPS.

 

[Grecco]

Its a NS game. They never have good animations. They are always stiff and awkward.

 

[Black_Stride]

still waiting

I sure hope they don't use that stupid design of Bane. Comic Bane plz.

Dont worry he is going to look something like this:

But with more armor most likely.

This game seems to be taking alot of inspiration from the New 52 so this is the base design to expect....none of that mask for pain shit, it will be straight up Venom tubes.
P.S If you see what he is like in the Batman Arkham games, expect a design very similar in this game.

 

[Fudgepuppy]

Does anyone know what framerate this game is running on?

 

[Card Boy]

Does anyone know what framerate this game is running on?

60.

 

[Nori Chan]

Not feeling the look I like the AC and mk vs dc on better. But I like it a little bit.

Hopefully there are alt costumes and they're not just recolors like mk vs dc

 

[Kacho]

Bleh. Was not impressed by that footage.

 

[dot]

Another Batman character? Interesting.

How many Batman characters is that now? 3? 4? Joker will probably be revealed later.
