    hate how they make you pay for characters that should be included in the game. I love fighting games but I'm not going to drop 60 because i know ill play it in a week and be done with it. that's even with it being online.

    Those ? . They knew Lobo was a highly requested character so they purposely kept him off the full game.

    if it plays slower than MK9, (and i dont know since i havent gotten my copy yet) its probably because theres characters in Injustice that are meant to be slow. Everyone in MK is fast really. If Grundy and Doomsday moved as fast as nightwing and green arrow it wouldn't really be right.

    Yeah ur right.. cuz when the big dudes hit u u feel it more.. much stronger attacks but slower speeds .. I don't like the way green lantern levitates tho... makes him sluggish at times .. oh yeah the story mode is GOAT btw

    I played all day yesterday. I'm diggin, but I go back and forth on certain aspects. I do agree that the combat is slower than MK9 (which is weird), but everybody seems to have pretty good mobility and dashes.

    Right now I like
    Green Arrow
    Aquaman
    The Flash
    Wonder Woman
    Shazam
    Superman
    Killer Frost
    Black Adam
    Hawkgirl
    Bane
    Lex

    Not Feelin
    Cyborg
    Ares
    Batman
    Catwoman
    Green Latern
    Sinestro
    Soloman Grundy

    Need more time
    Nightwing
    Harley Quinn
    The Joker
    Doomsday

    Raven and Deathstroke are both cheap as ? .

    Its not just a guessing game. Its about managing your meter and knowing when/how to use it and what characters to use it with....and depending on one's play style, its not a guessing game at all. You can force a wager knowing you have more meter which grants you an automatic win in the wager and inturn, additional benefits. Basically, there was thought put into it and you/we have to put thought into using it.

    Its not "oh, i'm losing...let me save x-factor for my third slot and become a super character for a comeback. And, oh...even if my opponent turns theirs on too it wont matter because they still have 2 or 3 characters so my x-factor will be stronger and last longer...and all this for getting my ass kicked most the match!"

    Of course x-factor is not always used that way, but most of the time, it is...and any kind of blatant, automatic comeback mechinism in a fighting game is "the worst ever".

    Ok is this game any good ? Cuz I'm seriously considering buying it. I want to buy it b/c it looks like it runs like MK9 and I loved MK9. Also how many of you on here play it ?

    Someone let me know how the gameplay & the mechanics are.

    Its MK9 with DC characters.
