Hmmm that is interestin,. I gotta see this in action...

I can see how this could bring an exciting element to big-game tourneys should Injustice be considered a tournament-worthy fighting game like Mortal Kombat 2011.

I don't know if it will be tournament worthy. Especially with that whole "Betting super meter" business. Still it sounds really cool. So even if it doesn't show up at Evo, I will still play it.

Maybe I'm alone on an island here, but I think that sounds awful. It's a gimmick. A non-fighting gimmick.

When MKvsDC came out, the worst aspects of the game, I thought, were free-fall kombat, klose kombat (or whatever that rockem sockem robots mode was) and the other one where you and your opponent had to mash the buttons while one opponent bashed the other through the longest building ever.

In other words, the tacked on gimmicks that took you out of the fighting during the match. Who knows, maybe this will be fun. But over a long period of time, or even after a few tries, gimmicks like these only ever seem to detract from the experience and create an "aww crap, we're stuck in this again" kind of moment.

Honestly, by the time I'd played a significant amount of MKvsDC, I was doing everythign I could to avoid getting in to those gimmick modes because I actually enjoyed the fighting gameplay and wanted to, you know, play the fighting game part of the fighting game.

I just hope that this game doesn't have a whole lot of this stuff, and for this mode specifically, I'm really hoping that it's cool enough to stand up after the first five to ten times it's done.

Not here for that. Just put in a freaking counter move.
