Subject: Injustice DLC Character Leak? Scorpion Confirmed and MM "hint"
For you Injustice fans this is apparently the rumored DLC cast list
Lobo (duh, already confirmed)
Batgirl (We have 2 extremely convincing images. She has....arm stabby things)
General Zod (because you know, have to promote the new superman movie)
and....Scorpion (no not some obscure DC person scorpion, as in Mortal Kombat Scorpion)
vid
My thoughts
Batgirl. Not saying she wont be fun, but do we really need another Batman character? General Zod. Hmm not surprising they would want to promote the movie. KNEEL BEFORE ZOD
Spoiler:
Scorpion. Pretty left field....I guess they want to go back to their previous 2 crossover games. Though Injustice plays very differently from MK so that'll be interesting.
Still though with the entirety of the DC universe, I think they could have been more creative

There's a reason she was. She got temporarily posted on the Xbox Live Marketplace.
Lobo of course has actually been announced. The remaining two reek of speculation and wishful thinking, because I have yet to see any evidence to back it up.
One of the InJustice devs had posted a list of characters but then immediately removed the post from Twitter. Batgirl and Lobo were in it, but Zod and Scorpion were not.
Martian Manhunter and Zatanna were listed though.
Scorpion is the face of Netherrealm studios, and they haven't made a fighting game without him yet. If you look through the MK history, he is the ONLY character who has been in every game. Sub Zero has been two different people (brothers), so he hasn't even properly been in every game as a single person. Scorpion has. He's also the logo. If the leaks are true, they don't want a fighting game without their main man (sorry Lobo) associated with it. I don't feel that he belongs, and I hope the Martian Manhunter and Zatanna rumors are more accurate (this is the first place I've seen those two listed though, so I'll take that with a pinch).
Reality is a nice place to visit, but I'd hate to live there.

No he hasn't.
He wasn't in Mortal Kombat 3. He was in Ultimate MK3, but not in the original release.
Ugh, of all the female DC characters, they had to choose Batgirl? I know this has been beaten to death, but c'mon. There's already a ton of Batman characters in this game that is supposed to be showcasing the DCU as a whole, not Batman + some others. I was looking forward to Zatanna, Circe, Power Girl, or even Fire.
Then again, I won't be happy until Spectre and Swamp Thing are in this game.

Batman sells
Well theres some more interesting development...
Manhunter seems quite favorable in being in. Theres a poll which had Red Hood (cough cough more batman people) and Zatanna on the top. And then theres some in game code with some initials that indicate some characters like Powergirl and....Sub Zero?
Automatically Appended Next Post: We need an "under the red hood" pack for joker, batman and red hood to go along, just like we have a "killing joke" pack for batgirl.

Speaking of; I'm still very irked that I have yet to receive my code for the "Arrow" skin. They sent me a code--but it was for Europe. When I explained that; I got another email saying that "We will be making an announcement in a few days regarding the availability of the 'Arrow' skin."
Batgirl, Zatanna, and Lobo I look forward to at the very least.
The people in the past who convinced themselves to do unspeakable things were no less human than you or I. They made their decisions; the only thing that prevents history from repeating itself is making different ones.

My blog
Watched someone try to extensively play him, and his combos dont seem very good. Too many chances to whiff them, he loses out if the enemy zones/keepaway (his shotgun is literally more like a physical attack), and even up close some characters can just beat him out. I dont really know what role Lobo has
now granted I suppose I am a bit biased since the guy I was watching did mention whatever gamestyle lobo has, he doesnt like (he mainly played bats, flash, supes, nightwing, and now batgirl. And hes having a lot of fun with batgil). But if any of you have some good videos (especially online matches) of lobo winning, send me a link

This is a DC fighting game; not your place to show off one of your own characters.
Scorpion better not be on the Season Pass. Otherwise I will NOT be happy at all.
I remember when everyone at the forum I was at said that about Freddy Krueger in MK9; "This is a MK game, not a Warner Brothers game!" "If he's on the Season Pass, I'm not buying it!" "This is so incredibly lame!"
He will be, Kan, He will be.
I've never feared Death or Dying. I've only feared never Trying.

Freddy Krueger in MK9 at least makes some semblance of sense though. There's nothing beyond "Nether Realms made these games" to tie Scorpion with InJustice.
