The Steam sale for it is over but apparently Amazon price matched it and it's still $10 there as of this post: http://www.amazon.com/Super-Street-Fighter-IV-Download/dp/B0058KRA0K/

It's either not Steam compatible or I'm just entering the code wrong though.

Sadly it's not steam compatible, I discovered this yesterday morning when I bought the $7.49 everybody costume pack and then tried to add it to steam. Whoops.

My guess would be Microsoft. Developers don't have that much say in how much stuff costs. Things seem more open with Sony but it's a bad idea to have different price points based on console.

There's a new Injustice trailer if anybody cares. Shows off Nightwing and Cyborg:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-pxqYHVV94w

Only really interesting thing I noticed is that you seem to be able to use the environment for mobility purposes as well as damage - Nightwing uses a car as a springboard at 1:17.

Also batman's super changed into the Batmobile I guess.

v: It's shown with a bunch of other supers and that's not the Batman stage.

Pretty sure his super is still the Batgrapple pully/drop kick thing he does. While what was shown there was most likely some kind of whacky environmental thingamawhatsit where the Batmobile comes flying out of the garage in the background of that particular stage.

But I'm not some insider with any knowledge of what I'm actually talking about so you might be right about the change.

It's really weird, and speaks to how disjointed DC is, that while everyone else in the game are in their new get ups, Nightwing is rocking his pre new-52 costume.

That being said, if the game catches on, I'll main the poo poo out of him. :swoon: Master Richard.

Back in high school my friends and I probably would have played Injustice for hours. But we also played the Star Wars fighting game and the 3D Mortal Kombats and that one X-Men fighting game where one of the characters was Professor X in a wheelchair.

No I remember. But one competent game isn't enough for me to just say this game won't be poo poo on that level either. But it won't be out for another year so who knows.

SNK's record has been pretty bad bar the most recent balance fix of 13, though. The initial release of 13 was a train wreck of bugs and poorly balanced characters, and before that it was near unanimously agreed that 2k2 and 98 were the best in a series that has seen the entire Ash arc after that.

While we're talking about Injustice, I kind of hate how while Ed Boon is pointing out features that make Injustice stand out from other fighting games that he draws attention to how Superman hovers around instead of walking on the ground.

Except it doesn't seem like Superman can do much with the ability in actual gameplay terms like characters with flight can in the Marvel versus series. Hopefully they do something with that fact since he might as well be a grounded character like he was in MKvsDCU. It's not like fight grants him any extra abilities.

Doubtful, Netherealm's fighting games have never ever been known for their aerial fighting mechanics, because there never is any. This ain't mvc

I know. If they're going to have more characters who can fly like Green Lantern, Captain Marvel, Hawkman or who ever then it's just a big missed opportunity to actually do something different and interesting.

There are proper air dashes and whatnot in Injustice, allegedly. I'm sure I saw/read something that outlined Wonder Woman's air stuff, I'm guessing Superman will have one if he doesn't already (don't watch Ed Boon videos, he doesn't know things).

What does Ed Boon actually do? Is his role essentially "hey wouldn't it be cool if one of superman's supers was to punch you up to space and then punch you back down but you could like wager meter somehow"?

He's the executive producer so he oversees the entire project from a managerial role.

He almost certainly has influence over things but I'd assume more of that is handled by people other than him.
