Incredible roster and story mode; Smooth online play; Fan-service aplenty

Some spam-heavy characters; Controls initially feel rigid; Costumes suffer from DLC overkill

I admit even I was a bit leery when I recalled all the flaws the last time DC characters were put into a fighting game, but considering Netherrealm's last devolpment in the almost...

For a long time, the Mortal Kombat games were the red headed stepchild of the fighting game genre. Generally poo-pooed in terms of gameplay and balance compared to franchises like Street Fighter and The King of Fighters , Mortal Kombat still had a strong but loyal fanbase.

Injustice: Gods Among Us learns a lot from the last Mortal Kombat game, but it's not a simple clone of the developer's past work. Its unique fighting system, deep move lists, and practice options give you something to learn and places to learn it.
