Oooh, I'd like it if it is. I never got that email even though I did the WBID thing and all.

In that case, I would love it since I totally spaced out and forgot to do the WBID thing at all, while Yardbomb has a good chance of receiving one since he is apparantly not a fucktard who forgets things like me.

mrxjacobs@gmail.com if you care, if not, its cool.



Has there been any rumors or even talks about new DLC stages? Even if they are transitionless?

So I've been looking in to the Scorpion vortex and it doesn't seem all that great. Off a j.3 I can get 30% meterless, or I can spend trait and a bar to get 34% and a free 50-50. From this 50-50 my overhead option gives me 23% and the low lands 26% with both costing a bar. If we assume a 50-50 success rate, average everything out, and compare it to the meterless combo you're spending 2 bars and trait for 16.75%, pretty lackluster. Of of a MB teleport starter we can set up the vortex for just trait, there we're spending trait and a bar for 12.75% which is better but not amazing. It is great off of a teleport punish though, so it seems like you'll get much more mileage by doing meterless combos ending with chain followed by the hellfire/punish wakeup attack 50-50.

I love that rumor, though he had better play totally different than Zatanna.

Fate just does magic stuff, and it's usually Ankh shaped. He doesn't use magic words like Zatanna.

Been a bit interested in picking up Injustice since well it's pretty awesome. My question is there a "definitive" version of the game to pick up? PS3/360/WiiU? Or are they all created equal?

I think WiiU version is missing some online features, and the game tends to have a bit of slowdown and tearing on PS3. So I would say Xbox for a tad better performance and a bigger online community. But they're all good so you can pick up whatever.

PS3 and 360 are both good but the Wii version's had to wait a long while for even the basic DLC the other two platforms got, so in general it's probably a bit better to grab one of those.

Played Ranked Mode, Player and some Lobby for a few hours yesterday interchanging between Sinestro and Aquaman and got myself a nice collection of hate mail in the process.

Glad to see that during the few weeks I haven't been able to play that the Injustice online community hasn't lost any of its sodium.

Probably but before 3PM PST since I work late that day. If we can't play on Monday lets just get a sesh on whenever we're both on. I'll harass you on XBL if I see you.

None of those are her tie-in comic look either. Not that that's drawn by the game artists anyway.

If you aren't watching Evo, Injustice is on all day on srkevo2 (the srkevo1 stream is UMvC3): http://www.multitwitch.tv/srkevo1/srkevo2/

Also concept art means nothing. Black Canary was most likely in contention to make the initial roster, so they had concept art drawn up. Yeah, they could revisit her and end up using it, but it's just as likely that it remains there as a footnote in the game's development history and nothing more.

I personally think all of them are, but if I had to choose, the Lady Gaga one would have to be it. It almost looks good until you get to the furry leggings and it just gets super silly.

Was just going to say this.

Not to slag the artist, but I'm guessing a good reason Black Canary didn't make it into the game was probably due to her concept art being so completely uninspired and dull.

If you look at the concept art, it's almost all like that.

New designs of the character, then a point where you can see someone say "Jesus Christ, try to make it look like the character" and they reign it in a bit.

Lot of people in the chat talking about how only half of the roster is usable, but for having so many characters there really has been a lot of variety. I'd say there's been more experimentation and variety here than there was in the MK9 competition. I mean, I know this game is much, much newer than that one, but it's good that the game seems to have a robust sense of balance while having the excellent NRS at the helm to make it even better.

Yeah, Wound Cowboy 88 is especially good considering how quickly and regularly he was able to charge his trait against Superman and Green Arrow and how on point his zoning and keepaway game was. Prime examples of how effective of a character Sinestro can really be.
