4:25- Look at Supergirl's neck as she's talking. Not only is her face expressing anguish, but even the tendons in her neck are tensing up. These guys put a LOT of effort into making the characters believable.
BeardedDanishViking how can you say that? Back when this game first came out in 2017 I think it was the facial animations in this game were not only by far the best in the fighting game genre but also arguable the best in the industry. The only characters face I personally thought didn’t look right was when they first introduced Bruce Wayne other than that they were all pretty impeccable imo. What characters do you think didn’t look good man? Like idk man after reading your comment it’s almost like you were watching a different game than everybody else
Kevin Conroy as Batman is perfect. Tara Strong as Harley is wonderful. Robert Englund (original Freddy Kruger actor) as Scarecrow is terrifyingly brilliant!
For anyone confused why Green Arrow is alive (as Superman killed him before the events of Injustice), he came from a different dimension. Black Canary fought Superman in retaliation and Superman almost killed her, but Dr. Fate intervened and brought her to a universe where she was dead but Green Arrow was alive. He then brought both of them back to this dimension.
Well, I think it's safe to say that this version of Harley is officially my favorite. In the first Injustice, she didn't strike me as that interesting. It only made sense that she acted the way she did, even when the Joker tried to pull the same shit as usual with her. But then the scene regarding her fears came around. She wasn't afraid of the Joker. She was afraid of going back to the life she had when he influenced her actions. She finally came into her own there, and now she has my respect. Props to NetherRealm.
All those close up shots. Yea, NetherRealmStudios is definitely proud of their facial expressions. Remember when faces used to be their weakest trait? Not anymore!
Netherealm faces went from weakest in gaming to absolute strongest I've ever seen. Everytime people talk I'm still blown away despite having seen it a bunch of times
You know what's sad? I'm watching this fight between Batman and Superman, and it's supposed to be this tragic fight between two former friends...and all I can think is "Wow, that gold trim on Superman's cape looks REALLY good. Helps add additional colour balance of the red, blue, and yellow of his suit". lol
this isnt just how to make a story mode, this is how to make a fighting game. capcom should be very concerned now cause if MvC:I isnt a goty contender with the smoothest online in the world then as of this game netherrealm WILL have taken the crown of best fighting game developer next to Arc system works
jose mendez dont get me wrong I like my anime fighting games like Guilty gear but SFV is sadly so stuck in the past and I dont know if its capcom or ono's fault but as you said it was all available launch date, no waiting for menu's to open up like and the roster to be completed like SFV
timmer919hep if it does take SFV's approach to the story then its dead on arrival, after MKX and I2's story mode there is no longer an excuse for SFV's sorry excuse for a story mode let alone it being carried into MvC:I
15:57 Vegeta would never use kryptonite on Superman because he would want to fight him at his full potential. The same way Vegeta wanted to fight Perfect Cell instead of Semi-Perfect Cell.
@@revanruler6404 super MAYBE and that is a big maybe, fused Gogeta blue probably, GT ... HELL NO. Vegeta was weak as fuck in GT, Even ssj4 Vegeta couldn't touch omega Shenron but you expect him to beat superman? Nah
Doctor Fate. In the IJ universe, Green Arrow was killed by Superman for daring to oppose him. Canary almost died as well when Fate intervened. He picked a universe that was exactly like the New 52's Earth with two exceptions. 1. The Black Canary of that universe had perished previously. 2. Canary and Green Arrow had already had their children. He then healed Canary and took her to this new universe (admittedly against her will, but she became appreciative when she saw Ollie again.) and said that while he knows they'll never be able to replace their lost lovers, hopefully it would one day feel normal. "Hello, pretty bird..." It was legitimately adorable.
It's one of the great things about the Injustice universe. Things actually CHANGE in it. People die permanently, others change sides, and places get f*cked up.
Fun fact, Starks/Cold's voice actor is actually Eubard Thawns/Reverse Flash's voice actor in Flashpoint Paradox. And Aquaman's is John Stewards in JLA. I need a life.....
Yea as a huge dcau fan, alot of these roles were voiced perfectly. I just wish they swapped Snart's and Thawne's VA, as his role in flashpoint was chillingly mesmerizing for me.
I like the subtleness to show Harley's allegiance to Batman. She still has her red and black color scheme and her domino pattern on her pants but her jacket has the Batman insignia on the back. Basically she's like the new Robin now, I fucking love it.
Watched this on steam this story mode can go toe to toe with the animated movies and you can tell NR was proud af they kept doing close ups on everything to show off the animations and expressions. They need to flush the clowns who's doing the live action movies and get people who care about the DCU like the people who worked on Injustice
Hiei Jaganshi Damn straight. Just finished the story and I was at the edge of my seat the whole time. When Brainiac takes possession of a certain character their facial expression is terrifying
lol going toe to toe with the animated movies? maybe on par with the first 40 minutes of the killing joke, but to movies like flashpoint paradox, public enemies and mask of the phantasm? that's like saying that suicide squad tops assault on arkham.
Overlord Mao the story mode is great. many people agree that the injustice storyline and comics are some of the best comics in recent years. quit bitching with no good arguments
I like that NR did their research into the characters so when Batman uses the lasso it makes sense. One of wonder woman's weaknesses is that if a man ties her up with her lasso she can't escape it.
Ryan Noble we really live in a world where people think that the guys who made Superman into an evil dictator would make a better Superman movie then someone who simply made Superman not a flawless character? Like, killing Zod because there was no other way and then feeling bad about it is more offensive to you than a fascist Superman killing almost everyone including Billy Batson? We really deserve climate change
Zanji De Leon I didn't mention Mvci since that game is being release around September, I'm looking forward to that game aswell but summer time injustice 2 is out & soon tekken 7 going to be played 24/7 for me I appreciate well done games,
31:14 You know, it took me a moment to figure out why Harley fears this, until I remembered that abusive lovers are pretty high up on the scale of terrifying things someone could experience in life.
FORGET FACIAL ANIMATIONS DID YALL SEE THE FIST ANIMATIONS ON SUPERMAN? @ 14:31 i could feel in my hear that punch was going to destroy this poor manbat
Wow! Well done Netherrealm. I may have a preference for the Guilty Gear aesthetic, but you've got fighting game storytelling down pat. I remember back in the mid 90s when the idea of a decent story in a fighting game sounded impossible. Boy is it great to be proven wrong.
i myself like aesthetic of GGXrd but i hate their policy i mean they are selling GGXrd Rev 2 for full price when it's third game which is basically same as first one (GGXrd Sigh) all that change is couple characters they could just add those characters as DLC into first game
True. Not much of a problem for me, though since I'm more of a watcher than a player of fighting games. As a gamer I tend to gravitate towards single player games, so my appreciation of fighting games is mostly through TH-cam and Twitch.
well with guilty gear no problem there their storymode basically anime no gameplay you just watch it))) oh yeah that's what different between those 3 GG games) all of those have different story which you can't even play!
To their defense, they made a game that's 100 hours long. While this game doubtful lasts more than 4. So there is a huge difference in the number of facial animations, characters that need their face animated and such. It's always easier to polish these kind of things when your game is completely linear affair and it only takes few hours. Like Uncharted 4 and such. Still it takes A LOT OF time. So there is some perspective for you. :)
I think it's more 60 to 80 hours of time. And dood this is a fighting game. As opposed to andromeda which is a bioware RPG. That's not an excuse to not do things well.
2:13 Love how the plants are purple. Rao is a red sun so they'd need something that absorbs more energy than chlorophyll does. That something would be retinal which causes leafs to look purple. Nice attention to scientific detail there
The first Batman V Superman during this story was like 10000x better than Batman v Superman movie. This fight had purpose of Batman as a friend trying to stop Superman going through the wrong path. A simple yet effective reason. Hey, Zack Snyder. Take note from Injustice, you idiot.
not the only little clear nod to MK in this game, towards the end, the brainiac bots have a "scorpion" spearhead that pops out of their hands which reminds me of the first MK movie.
And now a question to Brainiac (even if he's fictional) Wouldn't it make sense to run a worldwide scan (to the core even) to collect data instead of relocating the data and discarding the remnants? That way the planet and it's inhabitants remain intact & you don't get superheros/supervillans or bothersome inhabitants always ruining your plans. Or isn't that not enough or the technology doesn't allow him to do a minimal harm scan to collect the data to enhance his intellect instead of relocating/discarding and invading?
56:37 + John Stewart vs Brainiac JS: Why collect worlds? Just study them! Br: My knowledge must be exclusive JS: Whatever, Larfleeze. And if people keep evolving he won't be able to reach his goal
The BlackLegChef I hope so, but I think it's Shazam. He's the only weird omission in the core roster, especially if he has his own movie coming out. I'd prefer Beast Boy, but yeah. I don't think it's gonna happen.
I like banes Design hes pretty fucking huge atleast 250kgs of ripped muscle but then ontop of that his venom makes him inhumanly strong any bigger and hed sacrafice speed and strength
chunchoe without venom bane is still inhumanly strong. He broke killer crocs bones once without the help of venom. His design in Injustice 2 is one of the best I've seen and im happy that he has his genius level intilect in this like he should.
You guys made this even more entertaining to watch than it already was on its own. I'm very much loving Injustice 2. The production values and attention to detail is just superb, and I'm loving the multiverse challenges and unlocking gear and levelling characters.
The flashback, I'm guessing is Year 1 in the comic series, possibly before Dick Grayson was killed. | 10:15 - Good point... | 11:34 - It's at the end of Year 1 that the "happy pills" were made available. | 16:05 - Plot hole! He's supposed to die after killing someone close to Batman in Year 5 of the comics. Lazarus Pit? | 19:15 - Well, at least HE survived the Regime, the others of his inner circle weren't as fortunate. | 22:45 - Either he's not the original or he had the Lazarus Pit treatment. | 27:23 - Welcome to HIS nightmare and it's NOT on Elm Street. | 29:35 - Jared Leto is a mushroom in this. | 33:30 - So he didn't die in Year 3 and now we know why. | 43:30 - Batman Returns reference? | 44:20 - Now for a Luchador. | Now for the reason why she's alive. | 51:30 - General Zod would like a word with you...
Same here. I'm complete trash at fighters other than Smash but I think I might get this game anyway just because it's so well made. Bravo, Netherrealm!
I'm five minutes in and already more invested than I've been in any Superman movie as of late. The animations is amazing, the characters emote their feelings properly and the story is interesting.
seanmiami Are you just trying to complain about everything or do you not know anything about the Injustice comics/games? Because this is not "just another batman game" AT ALL lol Even in this game they give most of the spotlight to characters like Kara and Harley.
Randomly watching this year's later at 2am randomly and to hear a person so confidence rich to say Superman beats Goku (obviously it's all fiction and there is no actual answer), is wild to me. When Superman has all his conditions met he is a God, but when judging character power you have to always look at what sources their power. You take away the sun and he is near powerless compared to his full level of power. Goku doesn't need the sun. Goku can destroy the sun with an energy beam. Superman can fly and run and super speed......GOKU CAN MOVE FASTER THAN THE SPEED OF LIGHT WITH INSTANT TRANSMISSION. How is Superman dealing with constant instant transmission? Superman is impervious to EARTHLY DAMAGE. Human tech like bullets and blades and bombs.....who says he can tank a spirit bomb? Pure energy is what Goku can conjur at will with ki blasts. It would take Superman by himself a long time to destroy a whole planet. Goku can literally shoot a 20x MUI Kamehameha at reach the planets core and destroy it. But fuckkkkkk allll that.......CLARK KENT GOT NO HANDS. Goku is a universal level hand to hand master lmfao. Clark Kent can't fade Goku. Never
Harley & Ivy.Yeah that was one of my favorite episode of the Batman animated series.Along with"The Joker's Favor","The Man Who Killed Batman"And some Ra's al Ghul episodes.
@28:45 Ummmmmm, excuse me. Dr. Harleen Quinzel has a fucking PhD in psychology, she's always been crazy smart. And she didn't fuck her way to her degree.
static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/4/49726/2690025-tumblr_m93hh4wlld1ql4e6oo3_1280.png There are many iterations of Harely Quinn but in one of them, yeah she did. And they even acknowledge it's a different universe in the video right after if you kept listening.
Her character used to kill children and innocent people. She was never a good person or anti-hero til recently. I dont see why that could be out of character for her in early comics. You're just irrationally angry because one of your favorite characters isnt being shown in a positive light. Read more comics and actually learn more about her before you sit here and defend a villain for doing doing something stupid,bad, or criminal. This ws very early on in her creation. This is from a Batman the animated series comic line. The same series she was born from. so at the time it was canon. There have been so many retcons and alternate universe, storylines, etc. It doesnt matter, So stop getting so butt hurt over it.
Your entire post addressed no concern that I had brought up in any of my posts. My original point of concern was, and a still is, that she's always been super smart in every iteration and it insults her intelligence. It's not out of character for her to be both smart and use sex to her advantage, no, but it's both implausible as I mentioned above and it implies that she would be unable to get her degree otherwise. At the point I highlighted in the video, Simmons is using this one example of her sleeping with her professor as evidence that she isn't really smart And irrationally angry? It's just comics man, I'm mildly annoyed at worst. TL:DR; Simmons is wrong, your conjecture was entertaining but entirely missed the point.
I know, what I mean is that this version of Harley will make more fans and people will seem to think this Harley is the canon and definitive version of her. I dont want people to forget that she's a mass murdering psycho.
To be completely honest I like the design of Injustice 2 Joker, I enjoyed that we got that very Mark Hamil / Alex Ross design in the previous game and I feel, like you said, that this one is a great middle-ground between Heath Ledger and Jared Leto joker and that it's almost a good evolution of the old joker design since were beginning to get more "modern" interpretations of this character. Not to mention this design is also based is lore and makes sense when playing the game, since this is a fear gas hallucination of Harley it makes perfect sense that this Joker would appear as how Harley saw him, he looks very slightly younger and his hair is a bit fuller but he still maintains those sneering, twisted, and dangerous elements found in most jokers. I also adore how they use horror or traumatic imagery when finally introducing him, the entire sequence felt nightmarish and unreal
important thing to remember is that this Green Arrow is from the "good" universe from the original game. The Green Arrow from this universe was killed by Superman
4:25- Look at Supergirl's neck as she's talking. Not only is her face expressing anguish, but even the tendons in her neck are tensing up. These guys put a LOT of effort into making the characters believable.

It's just too bad that many of the faces look like shit. Deftly animated, though they may be.

And that's pretty much the only correct thing Damian has said in the entire game

Inriri So literal dimension hopping, Rick and Morty style.
So far in the Injustice 2 comics Alfred came back to life, I'm guessing He's probably going to die again.

Why Even Try? Alfred didn’t die again he left
Wait. what?

drop_dead619
There was so many references to MK
Ryan Ellis Nice Carnage profile pic. There were honestly quite a bit of references in this game.
And now a question to Brainiac (even if he's fictional)
Wouldn't it make sense to run a worldwide scan (to the core even) to collect data instead of relocating the data and discarding the remnants?
That way the planet and it's inhabitants remain intact & you don't get superheros/supervillans or bothersome inhabitants always ruining your plans. Or isn't that not enough or the technology doesn't allow him to do a minimal harm scan to collect the data to enhance his intellect instead of relocating/discarding and invading?
56:37 + John Stewart vs Brainiac
JS: Why collect worlds? Just study them!
Br: My knowledge must be exclusive
JS: Whatever, Larfleeze.
And if people keep evolving he won't be able to reach his goal
"they put pineapple in their pizzas" mah boy Max is on my side
when a fighting game has better facial animation than rpgs with 5 years of development lmao
Oh shit they redid the costumes to make it look like how they were in the comic
I have never REALLY liked a fighting game story mode before (guilty gear is pretty close), but holy shit, I actually want to keep watching.
damn that story mode is insanely good
Angryjoe is gonna be so pissed about superman
when you rewatch this video and Steeb *STILL* doesn't understand Damien is a murderer... one only thing that is that character...
This could be the game to make fighters mainstream. it's going to be a huge tournament game. I hope it's the biggest game in EVO next year.
Forest Demons Lol It wouldn't
Forest Demons First of all no it won't and second no it won't.
How have you guys not been aware of the Rainbow Kryptonite? XD
Well for me I've known about it for a while but that's because I've watched Smallville countless times 😶 .
Injustice 2: thicc ashes amongst us.
This was one of the best streams I've ever watched! Thanks guys
I'm starting to suspect the dlc character next to Black Manta is Beast Boy now.
GKING0906 so did Star fire and look who we get first dlc pack. If we're thinking multi-verse, than its possible.
Either way, I'm just glad we get a lot of content for the game.
starfire didn't die, she got put into the phantom zone along with most of the other titans
Crownified oh gotcha. thanks for the clarification.
The BlackLegChef I hope so, but I think it's Shazam. He's the only weird omission in the core roster, especially if he has his own movie coming out. I'd prefer Beast Boy, but yeah. I don't think it's gonna happen.
Holy FUCK those facial animations are way better than I expected them to be. I wasn't ready lol
I like banes Design hes pretty fucking huge atleast 250kgs of ripped muscle but then ontop of that his venom makes him inhumanly strong any bigger and hed sacrafice speed and strength
chunchoe without venom bane is still inhumanly strong. He broke killer crocs bones once without the help of venom.
His design in Injustice 2 is one of the best I've seen and im happy that he has his genius level intilect in this like he should.
Yeah i know. also really glad hes being portrayed correctly and not just some huge brute also having a spanish accent to boot
You guys made this even more entertaining to watch than it already was on its own. I'm very much loving Injustice 2. The production values and attention to detail is just superb, and I'm loving the multiverse challenges and unlocking gear and levelling characters.
I KNEW it was Robert Englund voicing Scarecrow! Friggin PERFECT casting here.
Freddy Krueger voiced the frea maniac scarecrow, poetry at its finest
The flashback, I'm guessing is Year 1 in the comic series, possibly before Dick Grayson was killed. | 10:15 - Good point... | 11:34 - It's at the end of Year 1 that the "happy pills" were made available. | 16:05 - Plot hole! He's supposed to die after killing someone close to Batman in Year 5 of the comics. Lazarus Pit? | 19:15 - Well, at least HE survived the Regime, the others of his inner circle weren't as fortunate. | 22:45 - Either he's not the original or he had the Lazarus Pit treatment. | 27:23 - Welcome to HIS nightmare and it's NOT on Elm Street. | 29:35 - Jared Leto is a mushroom in this. | 33:30 - So he didn't die in Year 3 and now we know why. | 43:30 - Batman Returns reference? | 44:20 - Now for a Luchador. | Now for the reason why she's alive. | 51:30 - General Zod would like a word with you...
FUCK I had absolutely no interest in this game until watching this. Damn you Max!
Same here. I'm complete trash at fighters other than Smash but I think I might get this game anyway just because it's so well made. Bravo, Netherrealm!
Anyone see Superman's expression when Robin killed Zsasz? I cracked up.
MAX YOU STAY AWAY FROM CANARY! She's mine!
that booty is mine
NOPE THAT'S MINE TOO! Lol!
SpiderShinobi so y'all cool with me having Supergirl right?
Take her, I only want Canary and Catwoman.
Nice
I'm five minutes in and already more invested than I've been in any Superman movie as of late. The animations is amazing, the characters emote their feelings properly and the story is interesting.
I like harley quinn as a good person now. by the way, harley quinn's voice actress is Tara strong who voices twilight sparkle.
Stephen Isaac she has voiced her in all arkham games
zombiekiller2112 I know that. the original voice actress of harley quinn from the animated series retired.
Actually not all Arkham Games. Arleen Sorkin (Original Harley VA) voiced her in Arkham Asylum
Maximilian dood + Injustice 2 story = awesome!!
damn looks good better than most DC movies
10:39 I thought it was Batman saying "OH SHIT" for a second there
Angryjoe lmao
ha
KingJ#22 did he get mad about bad guy superman again?
Damian Wayne's character arch...
Shut up dad, you do understand!
This is really just another Batman game. Don't let the title fool you. Albeit the best batman game so far. Everybody else are just guest characters
seanmiami Are you just trying to complain about everything or do you not know anything about the Injustice comics/games? Because this is not "just another batman game" AT ALL lol Even in this game they give most of the spotlight to characters like Kara and Harley.
The pineapple bit had me dying lol
Wow it's better than the movies.
"I know where this is going, it's going to the fuck elevator"
"Scissor me timbers"
holy shit LOL
I feel no one has actually read the injustice year comics
Randomly watching this year's later at 2am randomly and to hear a person so confidence rich to say Superman beats Goku (obviously it's all fiction and there is no actual answer), is wild to me. When Superman has all his conditions met he is a God, but when judging character power you have to always look at what sources their power. You take away the sun and he is near powerless compared to his full level of power. Goku doesn't need the sun. Goku can destroy the sun with an energy beam. Superman can fly and run and super speed......GOKU CAN MOVE FASTER THAN THE SPEED OF LIGHT WITH INSTANT TRANSMISSION. How is Superman dealing with constant instant transmission? Superman is impervious to EARTHLY DAMAGE. Human tech like bullets and blades and bombs.....who says he can tank a spirit bomb? Pure energy is what Goku can conjur at will with ki blasts. It would take Superman by himself a long time to destroy a whole planet. Goku can literally shoot a 20x MUI Kamehameha at reach the planets core and destroy it. But fuckkkkkk allll that.......CLARK KENT GOT NO HANDS. Goku is a universal level hand to hand master lmfao. Clark Kent can't fade Goku. Never
when the game is better both story and characters than the cinematic universe lol
Can we call Brainiac first appearance Iconic? When he captured and fought Green Arrow and Black Canary
It was So Good !!
Vintage comic book supervillain introduction monologue. This is how it should be.
A shame that these developers didn't do a Mass Effect game.........
Harley & Ivy.Yeah that was one of my favorite episode of the Batman animated series.Along with"The Joker's Favor","The Man Who Killed Batman"And some Ra's al Ghul episodes.
This game set a high bar for story mode. I hope mk 11 can keep up
Was great to watch, texture are pretty insane even for youtube compression, i'd love to see the whole story mode uploaded!
@28:45 Ummmmmm, excuse me. Dr. Harleen Quinzel has a fucking PhD in psychology, she's always been crazy smart. And she didn't fuck her way to her degree.
static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/4/49726/2690025-tumblr_m93hh4wlld1ql4e6oo3_1280.png
There are many iterations of Harely Quinn but in one of them, yeah she did. And they even acknowledge it's a different universe in the video right after if you kept listening.
Her character used to kill children and innocent people. She was never a good person or anti-hero til recently. I dont see why that could be out of character for her in early comics. You're just irrationally angry because one of your favorite characters isnt being shown in a positive light. Read more comics and actually learn more about her before you sit here and defend a villain for doing doing something stupid,bad, or criminal. This ws very early on in her creation. This is from a Batman the animated series comic line. The same series she was born from. so at the time it was canon. There have been so many retcons and alternate universe, storylines, etc. It doesnt matter, So stop getting so butt hurt over it.
Your entire post addressed no concern that I had brought up in any of my posts. My original point of concern was, and a still is, that she's always been super smart in every iteration and it insults her intelligence. It's not out of character for her to be both smart and use sex to her advantage, no, but it's both implausible as I mentioned above and it implies that she would be unable to get her degree otherwise. At the point I highlighted in the video, Simmons is using this one example of her sleeping with her professor as evidence that she isn't really smart And irrationally angry? It's just comics man, I'm mildly annoyed at worst.
TL:DR;
Simmons is wrong, your conjecture was entertaining but entirely missed the point.
Its okay to be wrong bud.
All I could think when Swamp Thing showed up was "GET OUT OF MUH SWAMP!!!"
Just a reminder that Harley killed children and murdered a woman for losing luggage
This Harley? I haven't read the Injustice comics, but wasn't she with Bats ever since Superman went nuts?
I know, what I mean is that this version of Harley will make more fans and people will seem to think this Harley is the canon and definitive version of her. I dont want people to forget that she's a mass murdering psycho.
To be completely honest I like the design of Injustice 2 Joker, I enjoyed that we got that very Mark Hamil / Alex Ross design in the previous game and I feel, like you said, that this one is a great middle-ground between Heath Ledger and Jared Leto joker and that it's almost a good evolution of the old joker design since were beginning to get more "modern" interpretations of this character. Not to mention this design is also based is lore and makes sense when playing the game, since this is a fear gas hallucination of Harley it makes perfect sense that this Joker would appear as how Harley saw him, he looks very slightly younger and his hair is a bit fuller but he still maintains those sneering, twisted, and dangerous elements found in most jokers. I also adore how they use horror or traumatic imagery when finally introducing him, the entire sequence felt nightmarish and unreal
This game is dope
10:08 Batman: "JUUUUUSTICE....for GOTHAAAAM!!-"
Brother Eye? OMAC confirmed? Maybe for Injustice 3?
21:42 He's really quite proud, isn't he? Bruce Wayne will never admit it and never show it, but he's an utter geek.
Fighting game have better animation than Mass Effect Andromeda. Madness
I love how they started out giving the story mode respect by not talking through it, but by the end, it devolved into MST3K for them.
Hello BioWare, this is how you capture facial movement and not that pile of garbage you made in the Mass Effect Andromeda.
Robin:A complete screw up in the first Lego Batman game.
Robin:Promoted to a total badass and a savage
The first Who says Thanos is a Darkseid wannabe gets a footdive to the face.
1 year later...
Thanos Is Darkseid wannabe
He is though
Don't forget the pink kryptonite that makes Superman gay
this game is a huge Fuck You to SFV. if this doesn't win Fighting Game Of The Year I'ma be pretty pissed
xWagnerPlaguesx hahah it won't!
important thing to remember is that this Green Arrow is from the "good" universe from the original game. The Green Arrow from this universe was killed by Superman
