Lurdiak posted:I should point out that it's implied in MK9 that the reason he never broke ranks with Quan Chi is partly because of the shame he felt at not being able to stay his hand (despite Raiden promising to petition the Elder Gods to resurrect his clan if he spared Sub-Zero) made him want to hide from the world, and partly due to the Lin Kuei cyborgs interrupting his match with Sub-Zero 2 just before what would likely have been the moment Scorpion realizes Sub Zero 2 is a good kid. I wouldn't so much call it shame, though that is unarguably present, but more so loyalty. Often, Quan Chi would bark out orders like, "Restraint, Scorpion." To me this came off as part of the spell that Quan Chi would have used to resurrect him, a catch-22 in the case of Scorpion turning on him. You'll notice that Noob Saibot also seems to do exactly as Quan Chi says without question, however it is short lived. To get back on topic; I really think Scorpion is going to fit in nicely in terms of character balance. He seems like a pretty agile character, so I could only hope he's part of the 'Acrobat' characters. It'd be a shame if I can't slide on Atlantis' Water Pipe and then summon fire under-water.

Reports that Scorpion is live on 360 along with the new skins: Classic Doomsday (The Green Suit) - Via Compatibility pack Darkest Night Superman, Flash, and Grundy(?) - Via Darkest Night Pack 1 Red Son Batman, Green Lantern and Deathstroke(!?) - Via Red Son Pack 2 Apparently the Darkest Night skins are super buggy and none of this seems like it should have been released yet.

Assuming the blame is on XBL again, this would be what, the second or third time they've hosed up Injustice DLC? You'd think NRS would get angry at them or something.

Pretty sure XBL is run by unpaid interns, so getting angry doesn't really have any impact.

Sounds like all of that stuff is being or has been taken down off XBL, now.

Shadow Ninja 64 posted:Superman clearly blocks Scorpions teleport while ducking in the trailer, meaning the teleport is a mid instead of an overhead. Since holding down is sufficient to low block in Injustice, this means you won't have to guess a side to block random teleports. The teleport will be used as it was in MK9, to counter zoning or jumping on reaction and in combos. Just make sure you hold straight down to block, holding down-back will allow you to be crossed up and holding down-forward will only block crossups

The 360 compatibility pack including Turns out his trait IS a burning aura that hurts whoever is right next to him though the hit box is pretty tight (about a step away from Scorp) once it's on. Also his MB spear totally works like Batmans grapple gun only with a big fiery uppercut.

The early reports on Scorpion are that he seems to be extremely meter-hungry and that his high/low mixup is weak because the low is punishable and his two overheads are easy to block on reaction. He could still be fine if his whiff punishment is strong, though, and I imagine that his MB Teleport being +9 or something equally silly on block will be a strong option for him. Edit: Oh my god I need this ASAP:

Aw, Lobo and Batgirl both came out on a tuesday in the UK on PS3. No Scorpion today though, that's a bit of a bummer. What does Red Son Deathstroke look like?

Without a doubt it's Zod. (Edit: and probably another Supes alt) It's like he doesn't know everyone who follows him on Twitter also has access to other parts of the Internet where literally every secret about this season pass has already been leaked before Lobo even dropped.

It's that Scorpion isn't really in the game, and that MK10 will feature Black lantern Superman as a guest character amd the Batcave as a guest stage.

Beautiful. Hey, let's have a sale on a semi-popular game. Let's have it for an hour. Oh and then lets not make sure the servers can handle it. Yeah. I'd like this game but not at 60 bucks

So I had a copy in my cart before the servers got pounded cause I figured they'd just auto correct the price. Went to check out and now I'm getting service unavailable after about 22 minutes of waiting for the drat thing to load so I can confirm. At this rate no one is going to be able to buy the drat thing because its only a hour long sale.

Whatever, I want Injustice, but not at $60. The best part was it said it had been deleted due to availability and then allowed me to put a PS3 version back in the cart.

Had it in my cart for $10 and on the last step of checkout it timed out then deleted the game from my cart. Guess they're sold out. Did they even limit how many copies can be purchased per customer? I see people elsewhere posting about how they bought multiple copies.

So basically, they're like "Here, we're tired of selling this at a decent price, take it off our hands and go ebay it for 30 bucks instead, thanks." EDIT: now it is showing as out of stock. Grats, ebay resellers, on your quick 20-40 bucks.
