Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition - PlayStation Vita

Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition is a fighting game developed by NetherRealm Studios, the makers of Mortal Kombat. It's a 1 on 1 fighting game that puts characters in the DC Universe against each other. The similarites to MK are quite abundant, and this isn't a bad thing, if you are a fan of MK. The control is simple and fluid. You have your standard punches and kicks. There are easy combos you can pull off, and each character has their own set of special moves. Super moves are pulled off by pressing L and R at the same time. No fancy button combinations to input, just simple and effective. You can interact with the environments such as throwing items in the background at your opponent, or by slamming your opponent through the wall, leading to an entirely new area. There are a total of 30 characters to choose from, ranging from well-known like Batman and Super-Man, to more obscure such as Ares, Zod, and DeathStroke. Scorpion is playable, from the Mortal Kombat universe, and this is a great surprise. He fits in great with the roster and is a blast to play as. His intro video shows him about to perform a Fatality on Sub-Zero, as he is suddenly transported to the DC World. It's great to see this collaboration for long-time MK fans. Each character is unlocked from the start of game, and all of their costumes are also available. Each character has a number of different outfits, ranging from 2 to 6. It offers a nice bit of variety for your matches. There are 15 different levels to fight on, iconic areas from the DC Universe such as The Batcave, Gotham City, Wayne Manor, and Atlantis. The game is also quite bloody and violent. I'm surprised it passed by with a Teen rating. The game features a Story Mode, in which there are 2 alternate universes that come together. It's the fight against an evil Super-Man, trying to make a New World Order basically. The cutscenes are vivid and quite enjoyable, and I didn't skip any of them. The story actually draws you in. You just run through various fights, and it can be completed in 4 or 5 hours. The graphics look great. There was no slowdown, and the Vita does a great job at running this game as it was meant to be seen. The character's voices are all done very well, and the music is dark, like what you would expect in the DC Universe. The game features a ranking system, where you level up with experience points. You get XP after every match you win, and it's very satisfying to rank up to a new level. You can go all the way to 100. Your level among all your other fighting stats are found on your Hero Card, which you can customize with a different background and avatar. I've got an evil Jack-O-Lantern on mine, and I thought this was a fun way of making your profile unique. There are lots of avatars and backgrounds to unlock by completing certain conditions in the game as well. The game tells you exactly what to do to unlock these. This Hero Card of yours is also what other players would see when they fight you online, but I'm more interested in the single player content. There are also 300 different STAR Labs missions for you to beat. These are just like the Challenge Tower in Mortal Kombat. Basically every fight has a handicap against you, and you must overcome this and beat the computer. These are very challenging, much more so than the Story Mode. But this offers a LOT of replayability, as it will take a long time to complete them all. Then we have the Archives Mode. You unlock Armory Keys in the game, and you use them in this mode to unlock character concept artwork, music, and other extras such as Hero Card Portrait Packs. This is very similar to the Krypt in Mortal Kombat, so again you've got even more replayability. There is an iOS version of Injustice, which seems to be very popular among users, and it is used to unlock exclusive content in the console versions of Injustice. However, since there is no way to link it up to the Playstation Vita version, all of the iOS exclusive content is already unlocked from the start. This is not true in the other Ultimate versions of this game on different platforms, so this in effect makes the Vita version the only true Ultimate edition of this game. Overall, this game is great. It's so fun and simple to play, with a ton of content and different things to unlock. This is easily one of the best fighting games on the Vita. Buy it.

Problems getting it to load. Problem was with my PS Vita. Needed to restore it's the database. So far it is a good product. Recommend the vendor.

I loved and owned the original version for the PS3. So i thought it would be nice to have an on the go version of the game, with the included extras the Ultimate Version offers instead of rebuying it for the PS3. Unlike Street fighter vs Tekken for the Vita, which the graphics are a perfect match between the console version and the vita version, the graphics in the vita version of Injustice are sub par compared to the PS3 version. But if I had to compare it between Mortal Kombat for the PS3 vs Vita for graphics, I'd say Injustice is a step above that. The graphics are still pretty decent, but don't expect the beauty of the console version to shine through on this one. Also, the game begins to grind on certain stages, making game play very slow. I was a little disappointed with this. It was pretty bad on the final battle (in battle mode) against Superman. But it also happened on other stages as well. The soundtrack is just as amazing as the original, but best played with headphones. The controls were surprisingly very responsive and easy to play on the Vita. Though, my hand began to cramp after 10-15 minutes of playing. I'd recommend playing this game with a hand grip such as the Niko battery powered hand grip. This game has a lot of content and is worth the full price I'd say. I hope they release a patch that will remove the slow down. I also wish it had the ability to utilize saved game progress from the PS3 version. I was in the process of unlocking a lot of the content on the PS3 version and would have loved to pick up where I left off on the go instead of having to unlock and level up from the beginning all over again. If you love fighters, this game is top notch. If you never played it or own the original, I would recommend buying the ultimate version for the PS3. If you do own the original, and want all the extras, then I'd probably either recommend selling your original version to get the PS3 version, or do what I did and get the PS vita if you want the flexibility to be able to play this on the go.

This is a fun game, i really enjoyed the story line except that it felt a little short. Once i completed i really didn't feel like playing it much after.

Joker still rules the world. I inserted this game into my Vita and I have not took it out yet. The graphics are the best I ever seen on a 21st century handheld. Game play is out of this world and very addicting. The only thing left to say is buy it and get hooked. Like joker says "You're Fired.

I played the mobile version first and it made me want to buy the console version and it was well worth it. It is a great game on the VITA. I love how the main story mixes fighting with telling the story. It almost like taking control of a comic as it plays out. The graphics are really good and the roster of characters is huge.

Llego en excelentes condiciones y 1 semana después, todo funciona bien y es un excelente juego de peleas . saludos!

One of my favourite titles but on the go!

The Game is So Far One of The Best FIGHTING/ACTION Games Released for PS VITA so Far. The Graphics Are 9.0 In My Opinion.I am Very Perfectionist and to be Honest I Know They Could Make it a Bit Better but Anyway,For All Those Who Loves Mortal Kombat series or Any Other Fighting Game a Must Buy. I Loved it ,It is Very Addictive and Genial. Definitely The Game of 21 Century.

Lo he comprado hace un mes, llego dos día después. El juego muy bien protegido y en un precio super accesible, incluye todos los DLC y ya es muy difícil encontrar juegos de psvita El vendedor muy recomendable y en un futuro pienso comprar otros dos juegos más.

■GOOD■ ○グリーンランタンやスーパーマン、 バットマン等、スーパーヒーローが 夢の共演をしてる。 ○ムービーが綺麗で、英語が分から無いのに 見入ってしまいます。 ○登場キャラクターがマニアックで、 日本では あまり馴染みの無い キャラクターまで居ます。 相変わらず海外のキャラクターの デザインは、魅力的な物ばかり。 海外アニメとかが好きなら、 すんなり馴染めます。 ○基本的な技は、出すのが簡単です。 超必殺技もL＋Rボタン同時押しなので、 格闘ゲーム初心者でも安心です。 ○ステージのギミック、オブジェ使用。 ステージに設置されてる大砲等を、 使う事が出来る。 また、吹っ飛ばし攻撃でステージ移動も可能。 ドラゴンボールみたく、派手に吹っ飛びます。 ○ガードが右向き状態時←なので、 他の格闘ゲームと変わら無いのが良い。 ○基本的な通常攻撃は、各方向と□、△、×の どれかなので、簡単です。 必殺技も↓→＋各ボタンや↓←→＋△とかなので、 基本的に簡単。 ○バックステップやダッシュ、カウンター攻撃や 投げ、浮かしてからのコンボ繋げ等も出来る。 ○格闘ゲームには珍しい、モードの豊富さ。 ※基本的な、各種モードとして・・・ 【PLAY STORY】 ムービーを織り交ぜながら、 格闘で進んで行くモードです。 ムービーから直接 戦闘に入るので、 格好良いです。 【BATTLLES】 他の格闘ゲームで言う、アーケードモード。 1人のキャラクターを選択して、次々に 現れる相手を倒して行くモードです。 【SINGLE FIGHT】 キャラクターと相手キャラクターを選び、 １戦だけ戦うモードです。 他の格闘ゲームで言う、フリーバトルです。 【TRAINING】 トレーニング モードで、色々と技を練習 する事が出来ます。 基本的な技から、複雑なコンボ技まで、 全てを練習する事が出来ます。 ※他にも、まだモードが有ります。 ○ローディングは長過ぎず短過ぎずで、 格闘ゲームとしては合格ライン。 ○一部、空中ダッシュ出来るキャラクターも居る。 ○勝利時の演出が、どれも格好良い。 ○BGMやサウンド エフェクトが映画っぽく、素晴らしい。 金属系のキャラクターへの攻撃音が違ったりして、 細かな部分まで こだわって作ってると思います。 ■BAD■ ×ムービーグラフィックや背景等は美しいのですが、 やはりカメラが寄ったり、キャラクターがアップに なると粗さが目立つ。 動き等は、滑らかで綺麗ですが。 ×技が、一部ダサいキャラクターが居る。 ×連続技が繋がるキャラクターと繋がら無い キャラクターが居る為、バランスが悪い。 ■感想■ PS3版を持って無いので、Vita版とは比較が 出来ませんが、開発元がモータルコンバットの メーカーだけ有って、モータルコンバット らしさが有り、クセが有る為、好みが別れると 思います。 グリーンランタンを使ってますが、かなり強いです。 CPUでは、スーパーマンが特に強いです。 他にも、魅力的なキャラクターが多いです。 クセが有る為、連続技を繋げられるまで 慣れが必要かと思いますが、トレーニングモードも 有るので、シッカリ練習する事が出来ます。 アーケードモードとフリーモードが 別れてるので、そこも嬉しい所です。 キャラクターも最初から３０体も使え、 モータルコンバットからスコーピオンが 参戦してます。 DCファンだけで無く、モータルコンバットの ファンの方でも、十分に遊べると思います。 日本版が待てず、こちらを購入しましたが、 大満足です。 ★追記 偶然 見付けたのですが、連続技が どうしても 上手く行か無い場合、□・□・△・×ボタンを 順番に押すと、割とコンボが繋がります。 ストーリーモードでは殆どのキャラクターを 使うので、不慣れなキャラクターでも このコンボが役に立ちます。 全キャラクターに、共通のコンボでした。 敵が結構 強めに設定されてるので、勝て無い 場合は試して見て下さい。
