Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League (2024)
A Failure to Comprehend Story is a Skill Issue
So first off, the game is amazing, the gameplay is really fun, the graphics are so appealing, and the story is pretty freakin' great. People's first and worst problem is that they think going into it that it's going to be like Batman games prior...uh, no? Do you see Batman in the title??? The story(people's biggest complaint), is actually really good, interesting, and entertaining. People say, "they took out the Justice League so easily!!!! DUmb gaME, 0/100, blah blah blah I DIDN'T EVEN PLAY IT WAHHHHH WAHHH WAHHH the Suicide Squad???? More like Poopercide Squad HahHahahHaha" let's all gather around and use our brain cells! The Justice League was clearly not at their peak, Brainaics mind control was messing with everything, EVERYTHING!!! Even, get this, their emotions and self-control!! WHOA?!?!? Looking at how easily it was for TFX to get under their skin and get them off their game shows how easily swayed they were, being susceptible to mental games is not something that easily happens to the Justice League. Hope, determination, perseverance. Its kinda their thing. Once irritated and hit enough, they became reckless and foolish(even before, further proving his mind control was their and Brainiacs downfall). Kinda like they're asking for death. My theory, and this is completely a theory, is that they clearly aware of what they're doing(Diana asking Barry what to do, he responds that they need to die - he understands what's happening AND what they've done). PERHAPS(this is the theory part) they allowed, or were willingly being goaded to die by TFX. Idk, that's what I got from that, butttt I could be crazy. Still, it's clear they're very off their games. Seeing Flash before THEN after, you can clearly see, "uh oh, somethings wrong here!" Even GL. He would NEVER talk to criminal like that, NEVER. Especially since he knows about Floyd's daughter and OPENLY threatens her life saying that they'll be coming after her soon TO FLOYD, HER FATHER. The Justice League values life, ALL LIFE. Even when it seems like a massive error in reason(ahem, Joker) Of course, this feeling isn't shared by all. Diana states several times that she wants nothing to do with TFX and forcibly moves them out of her way SEVERAL times(she even praises the defeat(death) of villains in various shows/movies, this is normal for her because she has been raised as a warrior, one who sees villainy as being a punishable crime, the punishment meaning death). Regardles, she still wanted to save her friends even when she knew that it would be impossible. ANYWHO, on to the individual deaths of the JL. Diana was the most believable to me, and not because TFX didn't kill her, but because Superman could honestly kill almost anyone if he tried hard enough(Injustice, Ultraman, still him, kinda?) I was really hoping Diana would get through to him, but the lasso struggled to get Flash to answer so I don't see Superman breaking outta nothing. Flash was plausible to me, he was the most off his game imo. He was extremely cocky, sure of himself, and reckless. Ik, Ik, he's Flash, fastest man alive!....depending on who's writing him. One could say he could snap all their necks before Waller blinks, but that wouldn't be very interesting would it. Same goes for Superman. TFX wanted to ruffle Barry's feathers while they used their speed force dampeners to mess with him even further, plus get several shots on him. A LEVEL-HEADED BARRY, could probably overcome this. He was still faster than TFX, but a MIND CONTROLLED BARRY was in over his head and not thinking straight. Green Lantern on the other hand was slightly more in control. He was calmer, but still insane. He underestimated the actual power the Sinestro Corp batteries would cause to his already damaged psyche. This allowed him to be overcome by TFX who utilized GL major oversight. Before continuing(if people have even read up to this point), allow me to point out that these plans, while not learned from Batman originally, WERE BATMANS PLANS IF THE THE JL BECAME COMPROMISED!!!! They literally used his contingency plans and people are still butt hurt. Batman time. His death, his death was completely and utterly satisfying to me. Allow me to explain my little goblins. Out of all of the Justice League members, if they had managed to get out of Brainiacs control, Batman would have offed himself. He killed Robin, Tim, HIS SON(which, sadly, he's done before), plus probably hundreds more. Where's Alfred? Who knows? Probably dead or transformed! Batmans fear tatic was awesome, especially considered it was a DIRECT CALLBACK TO THE END OF BATMAN: ARKHAM KNIGHT!!!!!! At the end of BAK, Batman initiates the Knightfall protocol and fakes his death. While everyone thinks Bruce/Batman is gone, he's been using fear toxin to hide his presence while still taking down criminals(remember that scary scarecrow, vampire-looking Batman? That's what you fight against in SS:KTJL!!!!) Batman's whole segment was very fun and the way mind controlled Batman acted was very intriguing. He acted blunt, harsh, and cold. So Batman, just evil. I FULLY believe that Batman WANTED to take that bullet, that he WANTED TO DIE. Harley literally says that right after shooting him. And how did Batman respond to a gun to his head? Pure silence, like he had been waiting for this moment forever. Batman would never have recovered from what Brainiac made him do, he would never forgive himself(I doubt anyone in the JL would have). Lastly, Superman(I won't write about gameplay and characters because that would make this WAYYY longer, and no one needs that). Gold Kryptonite was a surprise, but a welcome one, no doubt. It is very underutilized in shows/movies. The only time I can recall it being used off the top of my head is in Injustice 2 when Batman uses it to fight against Superman. With THAT amount of GK, it's insane that Superman didn't just lose his powers forever, but his biology(an important plot point in the game) was altered by Brainiac(just like all the others, which may have also been the cause for their extreme personality change). After being literally stabbed in the chest by a pretty big piece of Kryptonite, Superman not only DIDN'T DIE, but OBLITERATED Diana(his heat vision changed color and seemed wayyy more dangerous). Just like the others, Superman overlooked the GK and became reckless and egotistical against TFX, acting very un-boyscout like. This eventually led to his death, but, again, a LEVEL-HEADED Superman most likely would have not died, a FOOLISH, ARROGANT, AND ERRATIC Superman did. Idk, this is all just my opinion. Everyone is entitled to theirs, but, I don't think it's right to just say somethings horrible without truly looking into something first. Maybe you did, maybe I'm wrong. I don't care. I enjoyed the characters, I enjoyed the mechanics, I enjoyed the score, I enjoyed the graphics, and, most of all, I enjoyed the story. I enjoyed the game 🙂
Transformers: War for Cybertron (2010)
My childhood
This may sound biased *ahem title ahem* but this is by far not only one of my favorite games(along side TF: FOC) but also one of the best games I've ever played. Is it glitchy? Yes. Does it lag? Yes. Does it sometimes freeze and require me to completely turn off my ps3? YES!!!! I couldn't care less about that stuff. The game is old and my ps3 is old so it messing up more often is kind of a no-brainer. The mechanics, the designs, the environment, the voice actors, the story, all of these things are just a few incredible factors. If anyone reads this, I'd recommend this game(if you own a ps3 and purchase or find your game). Even if you don't like Transformers, that shouldn't keep you from playing something new. You might love it, you might hate it. No harm in trying :)
