    I really enjoyed playing as Wonder Woman in Injustice but I can't imagine I'll ever be good enough to beat anybody real. The moves just seem to require so much speed and precision to pull off I feel way out of my depth.

    I'm one of the few people with a PS3 here. I hardly ever have time to get on, though...and usually only really late at night.

    I did give the Injustice demo a try, but didn't have much success. It definitely feels like MK, which means everything is very static and too...tappy for me. Looking up combos, lots of switching between neutral, back plus button and forward plus button. Just feels weird to jerk back and forth. Maybe I'm misunderstanding the notation or something, though, it looks confusing to me.

    Probably another simple MK thing, but I'm not entirely sure what you're supposed to do, in general. The style. Like Marvel is get in and do combos, SF is slower with more spacing, seeing where everyone is and what state they're in, anime games are dashing around like crazy, 3D games involve lots of circling and taking advantage of 3D movement, etc. Moves and specials don't seem to chain together in a simple, obvious way, characters don't move incredibly fast, the stage/movement gimmicks are obviously extremely situational...

    the way i see it, getting the hang of movement and footsies is different for all games

    tekken plays different than DOA and VF5

    SFxT plays different from SF4 yadda yadda

    it's just another thing to get used to as far as i'm concerned

    and i've never minded how it looks, i dunno, i like watching MK and Injustice really excites me

    i know i'm in the minority though

    I only really like the B-list DC characters, so none of the ones available are too appealing, either. No Booster Gold, no Blue Beetle, no Birds of Prey, no Martian Manhunter, no Plastic Man. I think they do have some members of Justice Society, Young Justice, Outsiders, Suicide Squad, Teen Titans...just the more mainstream characters. They also have the crappiest of all the Green Lanterns, but DC has been screwing that up for years now.

    I do like Black Adam, and any Wonder Woman wearing pants has usually been alright.

    For a second I was thinking an actual SE++ Fighting Game. Just our avatars beating the hell out of each other, and at the end of the battle there's FATALITIES, FELLATIO, and BANNED.

    Finally a new thread!

    Ok, @Blackbeard7, and other Hulk users. I found out that Hawkeye's otg assist can be used to combo off command throw midscreen like Sent otg punch. The issue I am having now is that if I run Hulk/Skrull/Hawkeye, I have no zoning assists. But I can now TOD or very close to it with Hulk. I guess for serious business sake I need to drop Skrull from the lineup and use him in another team.

    Can you recommend another character that is good to DHC into? Preferably with a horizontal zoning assist?

    BTW if you are curious, the combo I was doing with Hulk/Hawkeye was command grab, dash, call assist/wavedash, jump H, jump S, M, f+M, S, Air combo, Gamma Wave, AA Gamma Charge, etc. basically a modified KBR combo. the first dash and assist call is very tight and you must be able to dash twice with a wavedash.

    Sev: Your gameplay is the most heavily yomi based around. Usually you look for characters that allow you to force guessing situations for big dmg. Even if the guess is mathematically nowhere near in your favor lol. You're happiest when you have either a 50/50, 33/33/33 or even a 75/25 situation to go crazy with. And you will take big risks to force those situations to come up.

    I guess I will go Tasky for now. If only because I am so sick of Doom.

    Same for me pretty much. Now I am debating who is better to anchor between Task and Hawkeye
