As if April couldn't get any better...
DC Injustice: Gods Among US demo (Xbox/PS3) will be hitting America on April 2nd and Europe on April 3rd. It'll include a Gotham stage and you'll get to play as Batman, Wonder Woman, and Lex Luthor.
Full game hits stores, in America, on the 16th, Australia on the 17th and I believe Europe on the 19th. Oh, and June 9th for Japan.
Anyways, this game is a game I've been awaiting for a while. I never get really anticipated for a lot of games, so this is big for me. I'll be playing as Wonder Woman on the demo a lot, most likely, and full game, I'll be playing as Nightwing, Flash, Green Arrow, Green Lantern, among others.
Now onto DLC. This was announced a few days ago. I could've made the thread then, but I didn't, so here it is.
They are offering a season pass, much like (from my experience) what WWE'12/13 did. A season pass is paying for all future DLC and in the end, you get it all cheaper than buying them one by one. Good deal. Here is what is the DLC promised so far, and they'll be adding more in the future, both costumes/skins and characters.
4 new characters
Flashpoint skins (Deathstroke, Wonder Woman, Aquaman)
DLC cost is 1200 microsoft points and I believe 14.99 on PSN. I'm an Xbox guy, so I apologize if I'm off a dollar or two.
Let's talk about the game itself.
Before I go on, my story description is nothing compared to the trailer and actually story. I'll post the vids at the end.
It's a fighter game with amazing stage interaction.
The storyline is basically "Joker goes to far. He kills Jimmy Olsen and, later on, fear gases Superman who then kills Lois Lane thinking she's Doomsday, who's pregnant with his child (He found out the night before). Superman looses it all and does what Batman can't: Kill Joker. This begins Superman's reigme, with Wonder Woman being his right hand. Superman extends his jurisdiction and wants to end all war. He becomes a dictator. Not all heroes are okay with this and sides are chosen. Villains also choose sides, some for money, some for revenge, some for seeing the light. Batman leads the rebellion while Superman leads the regime.
They have prequel comics to the story (Which are shown in the actual story, but not in all detail) and comics to go hand and hand with it. I've read the prequels, but I'm not reading any more.
Gameplay/Trailers:
*Note: Battle Arena camera angles are not in game*
Every character has multiple attires, which I love love love. Speaking of characters, here is the current roster-
Pre-order bonuses!
The last one is the best, but I pre-ordered mine at Gamestop before they were announced and I just don't buy games from Walmart anymore. Hopefully they'll hit stores later on.
Special editions!
Personally, I'm getting the Collector's Edition with the statue/Doom/new 52/Comics.
Game is coming out for Xbox, PS3, and Wii U.
Final note: I'm calling it. Going to be amazing and the story mode will blow me away, just like MK9 did.
Oh and discussion. SO SO SO many characters are making cameos in the game. I really hope Zatanna, Martian Manhunter, Red Hood, Doctor Fate, Black Canary, or Static Shock will be in the DLC. I can easily seeing Martian Manhunter being one of them, seeing how everyone wants him. Everyone seems wants Lobo and Powergirl. I don't know enough to care about Lobo and I can't stand Powergirl. Just give me Zatanna or Black Canary, and I'll be happy
I also hope we get skins for different Green Lanterns. Guy Gardner, Kyle, John, Alan. Maybe Red Arrow, Robin, etc... I can also see a Teen Titans pack with Starfire and Beast Boy. Maybe a Kid Flash Wally?
