I've been playing this game since it came out and it is easily one of my favorite games. There is so much to do. The storymode was excellent and I really like how it ends. I wonder how the 3rd Injustice game will follow this one and which ending will they use? The Batman or the Superman one? There's just so much going on here too. The Multiverse is a really great option and I'm finding myself more wrapped up in the gear stuff than I thought I would be. I am surprised that no one is talking about this game here but I assume that says more about these forums than the actual quality of the game. Not only does this game blow the first Injustice out of the water but it also gives the Arkham games a run for their money. The animation for the cinematics alone are sometimes really jaw-dropping stuff. I imagine I am going to get a lot of playtime out of this game for a long time to come.

I generally skip all of NRS games because, as a fighting game, they do nothing for me. I cannot stand the animations that you usually see in a NRS title, and no doubt it's also here in Injustice 2. Characters are too stiff for me, but despite all of that, the Red Hood announcement trailer won me over and not to mention the game for the most part is complete. Ever since I've seen Under the Red Hood I've been a fan of that character. And then when it comes to gameplay, Batman and Flash specifically (ignoring the animations) looks real fun. The gears, OMG, this is what I want to do in my games. I want to customize my characters to make them feel like a character for me.

2 games I've been looking forward to the most; Street Fighter 5 and Tekken 7. The storm that SF5 is currently going through, I don't really need to speak much about it. It's been a full year and player 2 still can't choose to go to the character select (this will continue to bother me until they fix that issue). Tekken 7 on the other hand, 2 years out officially in arcades and from what I've been hearing it still came out incomplete only to be met with a Season Pass.

I don't want to derail the thread any further with this. I will be playing this once my copy arrive.

I haven't played Tekken but I did play Street Fighter 5 and I thought it was a pretty fun game but I'm more fond of Injustice. It's likely because I'm a big comic book fan so it appeals to me a little more. The new characters they added have really been great so far. Starfire and Black Manta are really fun to play and I'm really interested to see how Hellboy is going to handle. Plus it seems like Black Lightning could be coming to the game which is really cool. I haven't played a lot of fighting games but Injustice 2 is easily my favorite. It helps that they really built up the universe with the spin-off comics which I recommend fans of the game give a try. They have been consistently great and some of DC's best comics in the last few years. I just hope NRS will support this game for awhile to come because I think there is a lot of potential here to keep things interesting for awhile.

The Ninja Turtles are coming to Injustice 2!

Dont let the serious face of Bruce Banner fool you because I am really looking forward to the DLC. I would have tried harder to sound sarcastic.

 

[Looney Turtles]

I've actually been wanting to get Injustice 2, and now with the Turtles being in it, I have even more of a reason to get it now.

 

[Spider-Man]

Is there a release date for the TMNT DLC?

February.

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles have arrived! Check out the trailer below!

I've been mostly maining Leonardo with a little bit of Donatello. Leonardo is a nice stable fighter even though I find his hits can be a little weak but Donatello gets great distance. How are Michelangelo and Raphael? Is anyone playing them?

So with the new level 30 cap, we'll need to grind all our level 20s up to 30 now to get them at their peak? Not sure I'm fond of that idea but I get the reason why they are doing it. To extend the gameplay. I've just been playing now for gear for my TMNT characters since they hit and not doing much else.
