The Knight is Still Young...

After the fairly recent release and phenominal commercial success of Injustice Gods Among Us, there is very little down time before WB games set loose the trailer for Arkam Origins, the third installment in the Arkam game franchise.  The CG trailer is awesome, take a look for yourself below.

Xrd is Absurd

Finally something truly exciting for the fighting game genre.  A fresh new Guilty Gear title has been desired out of Arc System Works for quite some time.  I mean...a LONG time.  Finally they have decided to honor us with a new title.  Not only is it stunning, but the character models are in 3D!?!  Not 3D like Tekken, but closer to 3D like Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Strom.  They are trying to maintain that anime look and feel that has brought the series as far as it has while still taking steps in a new and interesting direction.  We don't have much but this small teaser to go off of, but from what we can see, the game is very pleasing to the eyes.

Your Dick Need a Hand?

Looks like it didn't take long for me to pump out a video showcasing Nightwing in all of his glory.  This is a simple video that focuses on grounded easy to execute combos that are perfect for online play.  These combos aren't necessarily flashy and definitely not max damage, but they work and I use them online all the time with great consistency (rollback or otherwise).  You can mix and match any most of the stages of the combos to create one you are more comfortable with and start to utilize your own style.  Some combos can be altered to create better sets ups and such as well.

Excersizing Injustice Without Prejudice

Its closing in on the month mark for the initial release of Injustice Gods Among Us and my Dick (Grayson) is getting it done.  I've been having some serious fun experimenting and fine tuning my tricks for online play.  It isn't all that often that I have fun with a fighting game in the manner that this game provides.  Not only do I get to put punks online down, I get to do it with my Dick.  There are tons of fighting games out there, but only a select few get to be considered competitive. I think Injustice has it where it counts, and since NetherRealms promises to keep fine tuning the game as each DLC character is released (link to the most recent patch notes), I think we can see the evolution of another contender in the tournament scene. I love SSF4AE2012, but after 4 or so years of it, I like to see a fresh game get hyped up.  Especially after the disappointing showing of SFxTK amongst the community.
