Injustice: Gods Among Us

I've never been a big D.C. (or Marvel for that matter) fan, and I've played fewer fighting games than almost any other genre. In other words, I'm not the target audience for this game. Yet I really enjoyed every moment of 'Injustice: Gods Among Us'. I don't know what die- hard fighting fans will make of it; maybe it's too accessible for some of them, but as a relatively casual player I can't think of much to criticise. I *do* wish that Batman's playstyle was a little smoother -- playing him seems a little trickier than the rest of the characters. The story is surprisingly good - the fighting fits within the narrative rather than the other way around, and this is probably why it was such a success. The sequence of events feels natural, and not just an excuse to line up the next opponent. Many of the story fights actually add to the plot in some sense, and so the player is always left with an impression of progress which runs much deeper than just beating the current level. I bought this game in the sales but would in retrospect happily pay full price -- the amount of content is *very* impressive. There are enough unique challenges to not only acquaint you with all the characters, moves and settings, but to also fill dozens if not hundreds of hours. (The fact that I haven't logged many more hours on this is largely due to the fact that I'm not very good with fighting games and just *know* that I won't get very far with the additional content.) This game, in brief, is definitely worth your money and time

I have not played a fighting game in a long time (in fact, I think the last one I played is DC vs Mortal Kombat); however, I have been on such a comic kick lately that I got this one, its sequel and Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite. I have yet to play this one's sequel, but I have one the story mode on both this and Marvel vs Capcom. After playing them both and doing missions and arcade mode, I have to give the edge to this one. The fighting is a bit easier and less stiff than the fighting in this one, but the arcade mode and S.T.A.R lab mission modes in this one are much better giving this one better replay value.

The story has an alternate reality where the Joker tricks Superman into killing Lois and in turn her heart stoppage causes a bomb to explode killing millions in Metropolis. This makes Superman go pretty much insane as he creates a world where he polices the world and keeps everyone in line, or else! Meanwhile, in another reality, the Justice League are fighting Lex Luthor and multiple villains when Green Lantern, Joker, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Arrow and Aquaman are pulled in this very oppressive reality by the Batman there in hopes of stopping Superman's reign of terror.

The story mode is good and kept me playing till I won it to see how it ended. This one though also offers several other play modes that will make me play through each scenario, use each character and complete several missions too! So much to do, which causes me to be baffled by the lack of stuff to do in Marvel vs Capcom. The fighting in that one is better to me, but not by much so this one gets the overall edge on that one despite controls that at time feel a bit stiff.

So, this one was fun and I still must play through the arcade mode as each character as it offers a different ending for each one. I also must do the S.T.A.R missions too. So a lot going on in this one as compared to Marvel vs Capcom which would have benefited with multiple endings and a few other modes to choose from. This one also has the nice touch of environmental attacks too. So choose your hero or villain and tackle an assortment of heroes or villains or play through the story mode and stop the crazed alternate dimension Superman!

This game was amazing but... some of the game characters were OP and the controls were some what hard to get used to. If you like Soul Calibur you will like this game. Noe there are some minor problems on this game like it will freeze on my XBOX 360 250gb and making me restart my whole XBOX. Otherwise this was a pretty awesome games. On app store this game does lag a lot anything below the 4s. Personally i like it on IOS. So overall i really loved this game but with some minor issues i had to give it 9 out of 10.. for the lag and Xbox problems. I really hope they fix this. This game is worth the money that you spend, but if you like batman buy batman ark ham origins which is like 18 out of 10 ye i said it 18 out of 10 best game ever... but thats a whole different topic

Injustice: Gods Among Us is like Mortal Kombat but with DC Characters. NetherRealm Studios design the game and they really deliver a excellent fighting game.

While some of the game isn't going to make it a perfect game it is however a lot of fun and you will want to play the story mode to get more of a feel for what the story line is for the game and you can also play the single player mode to get a better feel for the characters of DC comics as they are related to the game plot.

I mean when I pick this game up I didn't expect much but yet when I play the game I was happy with adding the game to my collection because it is one of those games you will want to play.

The game's graphics are amazing the characters look like they should it is like they did motion capture for the game to give it a more realistic look to the game and the backgrounds are awesome too with each level offering more to the game.

The voice acting is very well done with a excellent cast of DC legends and new comers to allow a equal ground for the game. In the story mode you can appreciate the story along with the fact the game was written by DC vets it goes to show the game was made for fans of DC comics.

The Characters selection is very good to pleased all fans. The Characters you get to play as are Batman, Superman, The Joker, Harley Quinn,Nightwing, Aquaman, Ares, Bane, Catwoman, Black Adam, Cyborg, Deathstroke, Green Arrow, Green Lantern, Hawkgirl, Raven, Lex Luthor, Killer Frost, The Flash and much more.

The controls do take time to get into but once you do you will be having a lot of fun playing this game.

The Game play is where the game shines and you got a good roster of characters allowing you and your friends to fight.

Overall Injustice: Gods Among Us is one of the best fighting games out there and if you can find it I suggest picking it up.

With great graphics, good game play and for story mode that keeps you interested you will be happy to have this game in your collection I give Injustice: Gods Among Us an 9 out of 10

'Injustice: Gods Among Us (2013)' tells a tale of alternate universes, evil Supermen and fist-fights in the street. It's a fighting game focused on DC characters from the developers of the 'Mortal Kombat' series, with battles that play out in a very similar fashion to the newer 'MK' titles. Of course, they aren't quite as violent. They are, however, hectic and high-powered. Not only can you perform regular special moves (mapped to a combination of directional inputs and face button presses), you can also perform devastating super attacks which cinematically remove a huge chunk of your opponent's health. You can also use the environment to batter your foes and even knock them off the edge of the map, sending them rocketing into each stage's second area. One of the more superfluous problems with the game is the inherent disconnect between street-level characters such as Green Arrow or, even, Batman and God-like characters such as Superman; the battles should be over in seconds, and the super moves vary from 'that looks like it hurts' to 'that would literally kill you'. Still, this is an inevitable consequence of allowing any member of such a diverse roster to fight another and, really, you wouldn't want it any other way. The roster is pretty great, with heroes and villains from across the entire DC line-up. These feature heavily in the game's rather good - if somewhat complex - story, which mixes cut-scenes with traditional fights in an effective way. Alongside this, there are various arcade ladders for each character, a challenge mode and, of course, the one-on-one fights - either online or in-person - that act as the bread and butter of any fighting game. Overall, this is a distinct and entertaining experience. It's easy to jump into - and abuse special moves - but it's difficult to master, with combo chains requiring precise timing. It's a really fun time, especially with a friend. Any fan of DC should give this a go. 8/10
