My opinion of the game is more positive than Luke's, I have to say. Go figure...the guy who reads 30+ comics a week likes the comic book video game! I thought the story mode, while a little silly, was also pretty riveting...the voice acting was good and it was nice to hear some familiar actors from the various WB cartoons from years past! It was also incredibly entertaining watching the writers juggle new ways to try and make staged, one-on-one battles happen organically, over and over again! There were a few surprises, Easter eggs and fan nods in the narrative and overall I thought it'd make a great 2-part episode of Justice League Unlimited!
My main fear when I bought the game was that it would be impossible for me to play since I'm terrible at fighting games, and Mortal Kombat in particular! This fear was happily mitigated when I realized that on medium difficulty, even a clueless all-thumbs gamer such as myself can win 2/3 of the battles!
BUT this is not a video game review, is it? This is Thursday Threesome! Join me after the JUMP as I share the three characters I've found most fun so far, and the reasons why!
