Injustice The BatFamily: How They Look

I'll start off with Nightwing cause he's my favorite in the DC universe. i like most of his costume in the game except his face ,hair and ,boots. First off his face looks like they took Barry Allen's face used copy and paste but to make it look different add some five o'clock shadow. To that I say why Dick Grayson has always looked more like a pretty boy or a male model something in that atmosphere. I believe he's needs softer facial features he just looks to much like a tough guy. His comic book counterpart looks exactly how I would picture a late twenties early thridies Nightwing. Next is his hair in the comic is seems gelled back but in the game i don't know what is going on it like his hair is gelled two different ways. Not to mention it's brown when in the comic book it's dark blue as always. Lastly for his Injustice main costume is the boots as an acrobat I'm sure two ton boots get in the way he not Link people he don't need iron boots. The Regime outfit i like wish the tied back the hair and gave him a red mask. The New 52 outfit was greet for all of two month until he got another one that look so much cooler then his current one and if it changes blue in the game also fans will rejoice. Now on to Batman his default is so good that i wish this was the New 52 costume. Starting with his helmet ,it's like DC took the one in my dream and use that, the helmet comes with a chin piece not only for protection but to show as little of Bruce's face as possible. Next is the shoulder pad i never thought shoulder pads on superheros would be cool but boy are they. Only thing i don't like is his fin blades they look too animish. Lastly chest great, belt awesome,thigh pads cool, but the boots again with the boots to me they look cheap plus his him in armored up combat boots is cool to me. most of the bat-suit looks cool except the color blue Batman in the comic only wears grey, black, and yellow for he's belt. On the topic of  something being cheap the insurgency  i think was to not only look cheap but also battle damaged. I feel like the insurgency was made to look like a combination of previous Batman suits and it worked insurgency Batman from his cape to his boots look like he's been through hell. Not much to say about the New 52 Batman other then the helmet looks like it was glued to he's face. Seen I'm not a comic book junky Blackest Night Batman looks like poorly done zombie seen only he's cape and he's face. The Arkham City Batman translated so well it's unbelievable no more needs to be said. Being a huge Batman Beyond fan for the Batman Beyond costume i would have liked i to be Terry McGinnes complete with Will Friedle voice acting and a slimmer Batman model. Lastly Flashpoint should have come it a different heavy five o'clock and voice seen Kevin Conroy isn't Thomas Wayne in the upcoming Flashpoint ,and Russian Batman looks silly without snow. Onto Batgirl ,Batgirl only has one costume which is bullshit alright starting with the helmet i felt that her bat-ears need to be pointlyer a her hair need to be straight instead the weird hair she has. I like that her bat-suit looks more home made with small pocket here and there. In closing the it I hated equally in all the costumes is no goggles i don't need to see their eyes.

Injustice or Justice Lords done wrong

Injustice: Gods Among Us is a bad ass title for an average fighting. The story starts in slow motion with Metropolis destroyed so the play like me who didn't read the comic was like WTF. Add in the bad CQI with the police and newscasters and instantly I'm not impressed, but the biggest bait and switch is that your in they never give your the illusion that your in the 616 universe. Nope form get-go the characters are in their Regime and Insurgency costumes which is were the story fails the hardest. Gods Among Us had me thinking of Amanda Waller and the Justice Lords but that is what this game was the Justice Lords with a face lift. The game should have started with you as Superman fighting Lois(Doomsday). Honestly the game should have copied the comic I've read the first five issues after playing the game and the comic as much better. Now the story's holes start at the begin with why didn't Batman have any kryptonite on him? With Batman the Yin to Superman's Yang and seeming to always carry kryptonite on his belt why not now? Next the Joker death was cut but Joker smacking Harley is okay really. The story continues with a huge meaningless fight to show-off characters, as the fight continues we see the Titans getting the asses handed to them Dick calls for help and when Bruce gets their Bane makes a Bat-Break pun. When first play i was hoping that they were trying to get all the cliche shit out of the way. Moving on to Joker and his nuke and Hal telling Barry not to wait up for them, why? Barry your superhero name is The Flash your the fastest man alive with Joker, the Joker having a nuke why are you waiting run dumbass!!! That's what makes you different on the team your fast, really fast. With Batman and his bitches traveling to the other side the plot start to make the play rediscover the world of the One-Earth Government. Everything is going smooth until the fight in Atlantis were Badass Aquaman starts kick guards as in a 80's action movie way were the poor dumbasses go at him one at a time until he beats half of them senseless. Ares comes into the story with no bullshit and the no bullshit road is nice until Lex shows up and the BS continues. The story pissed me off when Joker beat Batman cause Bruce got a boo-boo,cause Batman doesn't work through pain ever, and why didn't Joker just drag Batman away like the Joker do. Joker beating Harleen again. Moving forward with Batman overly complex plan to store kryptonite i mean Lego Batman storage unit for the stuff was simpler and with that the whole plot is pretty much void. 

My Rating for the Injustice: Gods Among Us is = Bullshit i wanted to fell afraid of Superman  or Wonder Woman somebody, but with the story a good minute into the plot you know what's going to happen I'm disappointed with the story and know DC could have done a far better job.
