Apparently this is one of Bane's alternate costumes:
I think it looks pretty dumb.
Tell me this doesn't mean Croc (and thus another Batman character) is playable?

That's Riddler and Penguin in the background, no? Maybe Croc's a stage hazard.

From far off Penguin looks like his Arkham City version.
Well, that's a weird looking spot for a stage hazard if it's one.

Yeah, Croc looks just like his Arkham version aswell.

And Riddler.
Part of story mode, for sure. Every single character from the Arkham games has a new look, those three are obviously just a stage hazard or part of the story.
Probably has to do with magic, since it's Supes weak spot on par with kryptonite. With Dr. Fate and Shazam in, it's entirely possible both factions are going to get buffed up by either one or the other. Just like Kingdom Come.
I hope not, seems like it may just be cameos because Riddler and Penguin are there too.

Looks like NetherRealm has also tapped "Angry Joe" to do weekly videos on this:

At least abomination fits as an antagonist to hulk. Croc really has no place in the bat-verse.
God why
80% chance they chose him because he wears a Superboy t-shirt.
Bigger version of Bane's alt.
I should have listened to your warning. I kinda liked him summing up the origins of Bane because I am into stuff like that, but his batman vs bane thing with his friend literally gave me a headache. Nope.
I don't like that alt at all.

Angry Joe is painful. Waste of PR money.
His mask reminds me of Death from DS2.
I will wait until I see a full picture of him in a neutral stance before I make judgement, but its pretty underwhelming compared to how good his main outfit is.

I think Killer crock is a skin for Bane or Grundy. Riddler and Penguin are just in the arkham background is my guess.

Preeetty sure they wouldn't do that. If Killer Croc was playable in any sense, he'd have a different model than the one used in Arkham Asylum. Besides, if that was a command grab from either Bane or Grundy, Flash would be looking at him.
And it seems rather pointless to add Penguin and Riddler if it's just part of the stage, as they would only be visible while Croc beats the shit outta you. It's gotta be from the Story Mode.

You could be right I forgot all about the story mode in MK. It could just be a level for story mode using Arkham Characters.
However I still think it looks like Crock is a full playable and the 2 in the background just look like background but guess were see soon enough.

I said it in the game journalism thread, but keep in mind that this same guy mocked Keighley for Doritosgate.
Anybody got cool stage ideas?
One I think might be cool is the wild west, where you start out brawling in a saloon, then for the transition, you're thrown into a shootout between some thugs and Jonah Hex (getting hit by stray bullets on the way), and end up in the next building across (I haven't thought that far yet), but I think it'd give a lot of variety.

The Hall of Justice would be awesome. I'd want to be able to break the statues of all the characters inside it.

this game looks so bland and monotone in color. typical midway/american effects as well (no hit stop, attacks with no oomph, and mushy sound effects), everything seems to kind of just mish mash together like puddy instead of well defined hits. BUT it's a fighting game...so i'm probably gonna end up playing it for a little bit regardless lol.
you can't be serious.

Guys, I don't know if its just me.. But does Shazam look like Bruce Campbell to anyone? 
Actually, I'm with him. The feel of the attacks really is pretty underwhelming.
Nah I can see where he is coming from.
The game has a similar sound design to MK, which is everything is tuned to be super low, so you can barely hear the hits. Or the music, or anything, other then grunts.
The game also has no impact or hit stop as he called it, which goes a long way with helping attacks look meaty.
I assume they don't use it because it would feel really weird with MK style dialed combos.
Similar to why most 3D games don't use it, or have very little of it.
Well, this is rich. All this guy does is rip companies for trying to "exploit" gamers for monetary gain and rants about the evils of game companies, and he becomes a shill for this game. Nice.
If it's just you, then we have a sightseer in our midst.
Maybe with the right writer.
I've heard some stories of making him more of the sympathetic villain, a criminal turned croc who just wants to be human again and have a decent life again.
He's a better fit in the bat verse as opposed to Poison ivy, The ventriloquist, and Clayface.
My vote goes to stage hazard
Depends on what you consider bombing, I imagine will sell on par with MK.
It's rare to see such a positive spin on the word "bomb". I guess modern society has given it such a negative connotation that things are no longer "da bomb". Thanks for keeping the glass half full and bringing back that 80's nostalgia FINALBOSS.

You got a lot more gifs than me. We should probably dump a few in here. Combo gifs are worth viewing in this since they show the oomph outside of cutscene hypers. Nightwing and Cyborg had some good combos if I remember.
Wild theory time.
The story-- It might have to do with Ares, the god of war. All of the events going on have been orchestrated by him somehow influencing everyone into fighting each other. In his little "game", he had granted everyone immortality (somehow) and now people are acting unlike themselves, choosing a side and engaging in an all out war.

Oh ya, I was going to make a gif thread on TYM awhile ago but forgot.
I'll probably do it tomorrow if there is some good footage from those arena fights.
Though a bunch of the ones I made where made with Firefox in mind and look really speed up on Chrome.
Like this one.
