Sigh. This season pass is a waste. None of these characters interest me. I suppose I can try to make Zod one of my tertiary characters to justify the 15 dollars I spent on this. Oh well. It's 15 dollars down the chute for a lesson well-learned.

Super lame.

So many better characters could have been used.

Not only that but this is another batman character. I love batman series and I personally dont might all the bat characters in this BUT batgirl is a weak choice from the batman series imo

So can we talk about Batman characters that would have been better ? How about Poison Ivy? Killer Croc? Scarecrow??

I think Killer Croc and Scarecrow never had a chance because they were stage transitions. But Poison Ivy was at the top of my bat character list. So much potential in her movelist... Again, oh well.

Well Poison Ivy would be way better than Batgirl.

I really wanted Killer Croc though.

Theres also Azrael, Ra's Al Ghul, Red Hood. Just so many better Bat characters could have been used imo

Did anyone even WANT Batgirl ??

Also Scorpion does not need to be playable. I find it really dumb Ed Boon can be like "Scorpion is my favorite character, he is so badass, he should be in this game too"

Injustice is still an amazing game and I bet all these characters are fun to play as but still...

Haaaay. They probably wanted another lady/hero since Zod and Lobo are both villainy dudes. Scorpion too. Black Canary would've been the most obvious choice but they went with Batgirl. She's pretty hot right now so, yeah.

Sure there were people that wanted batgirl. But other characters were FAR more requested.

Batgirl might not have gotten as many requests as Black Canary or Power Girl, but she's certainly still the best!



You haters really should just check out Gail Simone's Batgirl comics. There's a great Batgirl origin issue as well. You get a great look into her psyche and why she wanted to be a hero in the first place.





People who are raging so hard right now and spamming Ed Boon's twitter probably don't have a clue about Batgirl as a character. Who she is, what motivates her, her personality, etc. Their ignorance is not his problem. The fact is - Batgirl's new series is one of the best selling in the past two years. People really LIKE Barbara.



She got shot and was crippled by the Joker, and for years as wheelchair bound "Oracle" she was able to help via her genius-level mind, but she wasn't living up to her potential. She knew she needed to be Batgirl again some day and she eventually found a treatment that worked for her. She fought through the pain (mental and physical) and ended up being able to walk again. She had to train herself all over again. The fateful night when she was shot by the Joker still haunts her, and in recent issues she finally got to come face to face with him and she actually considered killing him or paralyzing him.




Batgirl is a survivor and a hero. She's also very well written since 2011, thanks to Gail Simone. I can't WAIT to play as her and kick some ass! ^_^ Thanks NRS!!!

You already bought the game. You like the game? Then you got your money's worth. Nobody's making you buy this.

I love Batgirl, she's awesome. Who gives a shit?

I've been reading Batgirl since the New 52 reboot in september 2011, and while I agree that she does have her strong moments, the more issues I read, the more I'm starting to find them a bit too emo for my taste. I understand that's who she is, a person who thinks everything through... but I could really do without the constant inner-struggle dialogues.

Now if there is one Bat character I would love to have seen in the game, it would have been Batwoman. To me, that's currently the most appealing Bat-title in the whole bunch. And while I do agree that Batman is superbly written, the character itself is starting to bore me. So yeah, Batwoman all the way. Plus she's got this awesome looking uniform.

I also don't understand the Batman character hate. So, we got another person from Batman's series....and? What's your problem? They're popular for a reason. They're interesting and have stories that people care about. I'd rather have Batman, Batgirl, Robin, Catwoman, Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn, Joker, etc in Injustice than Cyborg, Killer Frost, Doomsday, Lobo, Black Adam, or Ares.

Killer Frost was obviously chosen just to stop people from whining about them adding Mr. Freeze and having too many Batman characters. Most people have no idea who Killer Frost is.

I would have liked to see Alan Scott (Gay Green Lantern), Black Canary, Martian Manhunter, Mad Hatter, Zatanna, Supergirl, I feel like they held back with the female characters, which is a shame. I wish the lineup was a little more equal.

Hopefully Green Lantern will get an Alan Scott skin, so we can have the first gay character in a NRS game (if you don't count Sonya, tee hee).

People who are saying "nobody is making you buy this", etc. are missing the point of why we are "raging". First of all, don't attack people because they're disappointed in the choice. Not only is that rude, but that's raging much harder than most of those who are anti-fringe-Batman-characters.

We're upset because we were duped. Character polls, hinting at Martian Manhunter, etc. Why would NRS do that? I preordered the season pass because MM seemed to be a given. That's certainly my mistake that this ordeal has made me learn from. However, if they had simply taken a "we decide what the dlc is, and you'll learn what it is when we announce it" approach, there wouldn't be so much nerd rage among me and the other folks like me, who are weirdly obsessive over an obscure digital hobby. :)

They don't owe you anything. They gave you a full game with a big roster. DLC is extra. If you bought the Season Pass without knowing who the four were going to be, that's on you. It's a gamble (all Season Passes are, in most games). You don't have anybody to blame but yourself. They didn't dupe anybody. They tested the waters to see who people wanted (probably for Season Pass 2).

I didn't buy the Season Pass. I'll only be buying Batgirl.

I have a feeling that Martian Manhunter, Black Canary, and Power Girl are coming up though.

I have a question: Where did that silhouette outline of Martian Manhunter come from (the one that had the 3 generic ones with it)? I mean, was it from NRS?

Nothing against homosexuals or the homosexual community, but if we're getting Alan Scott I want the original- not the new 52.



And, since we're talking skins the one I want the most is -



Jay Garrick!

I WUNTZ GULDN AJE FLASH SO HURD!

Erm...excuse me...I'd very much like a skin of Jay Garrick to be included as DLC.

I hope so. Happy as I am about Batgirl I had hyped myself up for some phase-fu and sonic screams. That's my fault but still.

And if we end up getting any other Green Lantern I hope it's John Stewart.

To ease the rage, anyone participated for free comics day?
i did with my friends this morning. got some neat stuff.

Leaked!!! New Batgirl costume Just revealed!!!!!!;)!!!

Whatever happened to Alicia Silverstone?

i saw the dark knight!

#batmannumber1fan
xDD

I remember loving this movie so much as a kid and kinda crushing on Alicia's Batgirl, maybe I should rewatch it now...or maybe not lol...

That is exactly where it came from. Most of this anger is not coming from people who hate batgirl. Its coming from the fact that NRS has *apparently* pulled the ole bait and switch.

Still wanted this gal:

Actually, I don't know about you but I bought my copy of the game. They didn't give me shit. Nobody is acting like they are owed anything. No one is acting entitled. I think people need to learn what entitled means.

I bought the game and am very happy with the game. The Season Pass is a different story. It was intentionally misleading. That MM image came from NRS. If the leaked season pass characters are correct they absolutely duped fans with it. I don't think thats hard to see.

You would be right, people would be acting entitled if it had been 4 generic images and they were just bitching about the choices. That silhoutette changed the argument.

This is the second thread I've seen you talking about drinking other peoples bodily fluids. I would think that's a habit you would want to keep to yourself.

MikeyRu,
I must say, this picture is pretty cool

It is. I'm really looking forward to that issue of Batgirl. Gail Simone does good drama.
