Injustice: Gods Among Us - Ultimate Edition Review and System Requirements

I have mixed feelings about this game. On the one hand, it is great at what it is.....a very high end Mortal Kombat clone. Alot of thought went into a vs game with a huge selection of characters, special moves, complicated playstyles that, quite frankly leave alot of room for the highly skilled to dominate the lesser skilled. It's been awhile since a game of this genre (I mean a good one) was created. One could argue that such games aren't popular anymore but this is a good one, well worth your time and money.

One issue that really burned me though was the artificial port from Xbox. I don't mind buying a decent xbox controller to play this game although I'm not a big console fan, I make an exception for this. What I do, very much mind is that this game does not support Windows XP. Since windows 7 and 8 are the retarded half cousins of XP where microsquish attempts to turn my high end computer into a type of Xbox or worse, a tablet, making it hard to do actual real work under the operating system, this is an extreme negative. If I wanted an Xbox, I would buy an xbox.....based on how they function, that's not happening any time soon. So minus one star for that.

But there is a far worse sin this game engages in. Its backstory. Months before the release of this game, it was hyped by a comic book series that went into great detail (R-rated detail) about what happened to turn Superman into a fascist dictator. The series was quite good. However, other than the bare bones of that story, it's not much of the story line mode of the game......which seems disjointed, thin and not very engaging. They could have done better.....ALOT better.

The bottom line is this game is worth getting if you have windows 8 and an xbox controller. But it lacks in depth. Twitch players will be thrilled to death however.

Verdict: 60/100
