WhatIfGaming - Injustice: Gods Among Us Review – Where Is The Kryptonite When You Need It?

WhatIfGaming writes: "Injustice: Gods Among Us is a decent fighting title from WB Games and NetherRealm Studios, but largely fails to hold much value in terms of storyline pacing. In terms of fighting mechanics, Injustice: Gods Among Us presents some environmental elements which are unique, but largely a gameplay structure which lacks a lot of originality. "

Terrible, terrible "Review" article. If you are going to post spoilers, at least have the decency to warn your readers about them first.

Oh, and edit your $hit. The article reads like english is not your first language (which it may not be, but that's no excuse, if you're hosting an english site).

#owned

Edit: I just saw that person's responses to you. I must add that that child is adorable....

Uh....

#owned?

[HammadTheBeast]

Relax guys, it's the internet, not an essay writing competition.

[Truth]

Did you really just write "#owned"? Oh, you're one of those people who get some sort of twisted justification when they correct someone over the internet. Why don't you go back to playing CoD where you can get all the jollies you want berating children while screaming obscenities about them and their family members. Maybe throw in the occasional "noob" or "pwn" to justify your obvious God like stature in the virtual world.

I entirely missed the whole spoiler thing you thought you found. Seemed on par with any other review for a game.

[pompombrum]

Jesus Christ, JoyiusHammer, you're probably posted some of the worst tosh I've seen on this website and that's saying something.. attacking a guy's baby calling it ugly? That's lower than low, then again going by your responses here, I can't say I'm surprised. Also thanks for posting the spoiler in the comments too, I didn't know that and it is a spoiler.

From what I hear, it doesn't happen during the game's events. The game is set several months after that; read the Injustice comics, because it tells the story and HOW it happened is a bit stunning even when you already know WHAT happened. Especially what Superman does shortly after.

[Baka-akaB]

What the hell just happened ?

How can you review a game that isn't out,at best your reviewing a demo.ive never herd of your web site as being a reputable review site.

[Skate-AK]

Well tons of publishers give early copies to websites. Regardless I don't think it was a good review either.

[admiralvic]

I don't see why anyone would agree with you, there are two incredibly likely answers.

1) They got a review copy from the publisher.
2) Someone broke street date. I got my copy of Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate 6 or so days before release from Digital River, which isn't that uncommon either.

The only reason why there isn't a lot of Injustice reviews (or at least I haven't seen them), is the fact the title is probably embargoed. This site either broke embargo or got it elsewhere and then decided to post.

Horrible review. Button mashing??? Decent fighter??? Gtfo!!

[Chris_tuffer]

This is a short, angry, vague review. For one, the review embargo is not up. For two, this reviewer didn't mention any of the games extra features beyond what we have played in the demo, not to mention the fact that we know the part of the story already he explained to us. This is garbage. Either the reviewer doesn't enjoy fighting games, or he's retarded

"I can see why your pic is an ugly baby because that's what you pretty much are....just whining like a little bitch over nothing. Get over it baby turd."

Dude, that's low. You NEVER attack people's children. Even if it's not his kid, you still bite your tongue. It doesn't matter if ArchangelMike was pointing the finger in the wrong direction, there's no need to go there and that was simply inexcusable behavior.

On topic:
While the review does make a few valid points, I have to ultimately disagree. I played the demo and found it to be a pretty fun game with a very cool concept. Just my humble opinion though.

[greatcrusader44]

The baby's not even ugly, he's just saying something he knows would hurt the guy, and attacking possibly his children is a fairly easy way to do that. I personally think the kid's adorable.

[FireCage321]

It's a poor review for the general public. Poorly written, poorly researched, and overall lacking in detail. The reviewer has absolutely no idea what is a good fighting game and essentially isn't qualified to give a proper review.

However, he does still represent this slice of the public who just don't and probably will never "get" what is fun about fighting games. And to that, his review is on point. They're all just "classical" button mashers and identical to each other.

[Chris_tuffer]

Couldn't have said it better

[cr33ping_death]

Whatifgaming? Soooo... I can make a website add the word gaming to it and im certified to make crappy reviews for hits?

[mcknight8279109]

You can mash buttons in every game that has ever existed lol
Will you succeed? No unless it's a quicktime event.
This guy has no idea what a fighting game is all about, If you wanna play at tournaments, you CANNOT BUTTON MASH OR YOU WILL GET BODIED!!! This game has hella features in it and i get the feeling that all he did was play the demo and read up on a couple of story elements and tried to review it. If you wanna really know how this game is visit Eventhubsdotcom or shoryukendotcom. They'll give you a good idea of what this game is really about

[TheHergulaX]

I approve of your comment, well put.
