    Uma das melhores histórias de super-herói, combate muito bom. Gráficos ultrapassados para a 8° geração mas eram muito bons para a 7°.

    Solidne przeniesienie Mortal Kombat na grunt DC. Kampania nie jest może specjalnie odkrywcza, ale jest świetnym pretekstem do walk i widowiskowych starć pomiędzy postaciami i przyjemnie się całość ogląda. Nie wszystkie postacie są perfekcyjnie zbalansowane jednak wprawny gracz będzie w stanie wykorzystać każdą w odpowiedni sposób. Gratka dla fanów komiksów DC

    This port of Injustice was one of the PS4's launch titles. It includes all DLC and Touch Pad controls. Unfortunately, the graphics were not updated. At least not enough for me to notice. It's only worth owning if you don't have the PS3 version. I would rate it with an 8 out of 10.

    In my opinion, this game is amazing! The combat is great, however, I feel like playing with the joystick is a pain in the ass. I keep jumping by accident, and the d-pad doesn't feel right in this game. I am in love with the campaign so far! I would recommend this game to anyone who ljkes DC and Mortal Kombat!

    A great game, the narrative is amazing and the combat is great. The graphics are lovely and the characters are awesome.Its really great to see so many DC characters in one game. For me, this game is better then MK, the narrative feels more fluid, and the combat more badass.

    INJUSTICE: GODS AMONG US, that mean one of us could be become Gods. Gameplay is battle duel beetween 2 players, COM (computer) or human player (P2) of Superheroes that we choose.

    It is contain story mode, battle, S.T.A.R Lab., and multiplayer. The graphic is great, I like the effect of SUPER MOVE action. To get achievements is easy, usually with patient to complete.

    The history and description every character, I mean the power and strength, included in the game. I take the screenshots of these. I can mention the characters could play, those are AQUAMAN, ARES, BANE, BATMAN, BLACK ADAM, CATWOMAN, CYBORG, DEATHSTROKE, DOOMSDAY, THE FLASH, GREEN ARROW, GREEN LANTERN, HARLEY QUINN, HAWKGIRL, THE JOKER, KILLER FROST, LEX LUTHOR, NIGHTWING, RAVEN, SHAZAM, SINESTRO, SOLOMON GRUNDY, SUPERMAN, WONDER WOMAN, BATGIRL, LOBO, ZATANNA, ZOD, MARTIAN MANHUNTER, and SCORPION.

    You can choose your favourite character, of course you can see them in their films. The difficulty is to play with move list and S.T.A.R Lab. mission. Online multiplayer seem trouble, with a few players I still can not play to get achievements. I recommend this game to play by you if you like fighting game.    … Expand

    The only downside to this new gameplay is they didn't think about some move sets which are easy to spam with. Especially online.

    Just try and pick up the game and try for yourself if you are a fighting game enthusiast like me.    … Expand

I'm a sucker for alternate universe stories in comics and seeing how they differ from origins and this game didn't disappoint. A battle between Batman and Superman at its core with the world and other heroes getting wrapped up in it. The transitions from story to battle are well thought out and they work for me (minus the QTE events those can go away).
    The fighting feels like a little more fluid Mortal Kombat and the roster of characters is most of the ones I would desire to play as. It's fun to bash either the AI or a buddy. The unlockables keep you coming back for more and I appreciate the simple menu layouts throughout as well as how easily you can change to alternate costumes.
    VO work is good.
    Some of the polish can be a little off in some of the scenes with a little slow down in frame rate too (never in battle). Noticeable but not distracting enough to not recommend.
    Amazingly good story, I wanted more. I care about the story in a fighting game, yes and more yes.
    Specials don't feel overpowered.
    Having two life bars and no rounds keeps it fluid and fast.
    Environmental damages and objects - amazing.

Разработчики пошли по принципу упрощения, что не лучшим образом сказалось на всех аспектах игры. К примеру так называемое "столкновение" теперь перестало быть непредсказуемым, а выбивание противника за пределы локации сулит большие неприятности только оппоненту. С другой стороны бои стали зрелищнее, а шкала набора спешалов обрела более глубокий стратегический характер. Вообще говоря о мелочах, можно отметить, что в той же сюжетной компании мы теперь изредка участвуем в происходящем, по средствам лёгких мини-игр, от успеха или провала которых чаще всего будет зависеть будем ли мы начинать бой с полной полоской жизни, без наложенных на нас негативных эффектов или же это будет с потенциальным врагом под властью ИИ. Нарощенный темп в боях ПОКА ни на что не влияет. А в общем и целом теперь понятно как будут развиваться Mk и DC по отдельности, и при их сравнении Inustice проигрывает СБ2011.    … Expand

    I haven't played a lot of fighting games in the past. Sure, I'd participated in some occasional button smashing with friends on a Mortal Kombat game and have played my fair share of Super Smash Brothers (if that even counts), but I'm definitely not experienced.

But I got this game as a gift, and it changed me!

    Seriously, I went into it with very low expectations and I fell in love immediately. It made me want to get more fighting games and I have since purchased Mortal Kombat on my Playstation Vita (which is also a good game). I don't have a lot to compare against, but I love the combat style in Injustice. Button mashing isn't going to win you many matches, but the difficulty level isn't so steep that I couldn't enjoy myself. I even went online and sure enough there was plenty of people there that I could compete with. Even after beating the story, my wife and I sometimes hop on to fight each other. Speaking of the story, I thought it was very compelling. It wasn't overly long, but it kept me entertained.

    In conclusion, any game that can take someone largely uninterested in a genre and churn up some previously unknown excitement is a good game.    … Expand

    Well, Injustice Gods Among Us is finally on PS4 and Xbox One, and I have to say, it looks great!! The combat has been upgraded from the last-gen version, now running at 60 FPS. The graphics have been improved as well, nearly looking as good as Mortal Kombat X. A heap of new characters have been added too. There is a HEAP of content in this game, buy it if you get the chance.

    The cut scenes look horrible. Colors are washed out....but damn its fun and the story is great. I had already beat it on PS3 but sold it to get this version....seriously...no difference...except now I don't have to turn on my PS3. I love it but really wish they would have put some effort into making it actually WORTH it.

    Injustice gets its port to next gen consoles but doesn't really improve anything

    + Great fighting mechanics
    + Amazing story
    + Fantastic character roster
    + Online Mode
    + All DLC

    - Nothing new to the table
    - DPad on PS4 is not that good for fighting games

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Injustice: Gods Among Us is addictively fun. It has great fighting mechanics reminiscent to Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat. It has a rather large roster of DC characters along with some DLC characters like Martian Manhunter, General Zod, and Lobo which come with the game which is quite nice. The game also comes with all the DLC skins so you have a lot of different looks for each hero and villian. I found myself experimenting with each skin because they are so interesting variety-wise. But the main single-player portion of the game is the story. The story basically explains what would happen if Superman lost his s*** due to him being drugged by the Joker, forcing him to kill his own family. He then straight up murders the Joker! This shocked me because Superman would never do this, but he did. We soon find out that those events happened in a parallel dimension, and the heroes and villians from the other dimension get transported when Joker is about to nuke the city of Metropolis. From then on it is your job to stop Superman's evil dictatorship which was caused by him losing everyone he cared about. The story is easily the strongest part of the game. But that's not to say that it has excellent multi-player. I still spend hours on end playing this game with friends locally and over the PlayStation Network. And even better, it is remastered for the PS4! The graphics are updated as well as smoother framerate. If you loved the PlayStation 3 version, you owe it to yourself to check this one out. It even goes for prices in between $20-$30. 9/10 (Awesome)… Expand

    A quick fighting game that is easy to get into and doesn't require the player to memorize very much to be good. The Playstation 4-version has a graphics overhaul with higher resolution and better anti-aliasing, but aside from that there is nothing new.
