I’ve seen a lot about this game lately and I finally played the demo this past Sunday. I fell in love with the game instantly, it uses the same engine as the latest Mortal Kombat game (released in 2011). This game will be based upon the fictional universe of DC Comics. I was impressed by the graphics and movement. The characters can interact with environment items to attack the other player, which I think it’s super fun. Apparently, fighting games are on the rise again, but I enjoy that since those games are super fun, especially when playing with friends.
The demo only had three characters: Wonder Woman, Batman and Lex Luthor. My favorite from the demo was probably Wonder Woman, her attacks were fun and quick. From what I saw, there is going to be a mechanic similar to the “X-Ray” in Mortal Kombat but I didn’t figure out how to use it. The characters that will be featured in this game are:
- Aquaman
- Ares
- Bane
- Batman
- Black Adam
- Catwoman
- Cyborg
- Deathstroke
- Doomsday
- The Flash
- Green Arrow
- Green Lantern
- Harley Quinn
- Hawkgirl
- The Joker
- Killer Frost
- Lex Luthor
- Nightwing
- Raven
- Shazam
- Sinestro
- Solomon Grundy
- Superman
- Wonder Woman
The game will be released (NA) this next Tuesday: April 16. I don’t think I’ll be able to get it right away but I will try to rent it so I can play at least some of it. Here’s a gameplay trailer:
Are you interested in this game? Have you played the demo? What did you think?
I haven’t been blogging for the past few days because all my sites have been moving around back and forth. I ordered a VPS so I could have a separate cPanel for each domain I’m hosting. I was being a bit ambitious with that because I could pay the $55 monthly, but it would cause difficulty for me budget-wise. I ended up cancelling it, the whole configuration process was a problem because it would give me so many errors and I realized I was being way too ambitious for that right now. I upgraded my hosting account to the most expensive shared package, which has a private IP and guaranteed 100% uptime. That should work for now, I will probably get a VPS eventually when I’m actually able to afford it without any problems.
Even though this whole process was a little crazy, I have to appreciate the excellent SurpassHosting customer support. I’ve been with them since 2004 and their awesome support is one thing that has kept me with them all this time. I will always recommend them.
I’ve recently been hooked on watching Lost Girl, all thanks to Angie. The show is about Bo, a succubus who feeds on the energy of humans and Fae. Fae are creatures with supernatural powers who pass as humans, which divides itself into two political/divisions inside the Fae world, the Light and the Dark. Bo refuses to join either group and with the help of Kenzi, her human sidekick and best friend, try to find more about Bo’s origin and venture into the Fae world, which is dangerous and unpredictable.
I’ve already completed the first season and hope to finish the second one soon. It’s a really addicting show and something different from what I’ve been watching lately. I’m glad I’ve been able to watch the episodes on Netflix, always a handy thing. If you like tv shows about fantasy and crime solving, then this is definitely something you should watch!
