Devin back with a bit more Flash video game news. This past Friday the Injustice: Gods Among Us Facebook page posted an exclusive image of Batman facing off against the Flash with a close up of The Flash’s new duds:
Flash video game news keeps on coming! This past Friday the upcoming game, Young Justice: Legacy’s Facebook page reached 2000 “likes” and as promised the developers, Little Orbit, revealed a special screenshot featuring Kid Flash (Wally West):
The screenshot depicts Kid Flash facing down perennial Batman villain, Bane on the island of Santa Prisca, a fictional locale from the animated series. It is unclear what console this screenshot is from but I’m hoping that it is either from the Wii or just a really early build. I am by no means someone easily swayed by pretty graphics (a lot of my favorite games are 2D and from the 16 bit era or below) but I’ve just come to expect more in 2012; Especially when games routinely start out at 60 bucks a pop! This looks like something more akin to the Playstation 2 than a Playstation 3 or xbox 360. I can only hope that playing as Kid Flash will be as awesome as I think it will be.
Little Orbit has released 3 other screenshots throughout the month of May featuring various other members of the team that can be found at the Young Justice: Legacy Facebook page.
The game itself is due to be released in February of 2013 for the Playstation 3, Xbox 360, Wii and DS.
What do you all think of the newest screenshot? Must buy, stay away, or too early to tell? Please let us know in the comments below.
Thanks for reading,
Promotional photos have finally been released for tomorrow’s Young Justice Episode, “Bloodlines” by Peter David. Months ago, he wrote about the voice recording sessions featuring Jay Garrick alongside Barry Allen and Wally West, leading us to speculate that it would be a Flash Family-centric episode.
As it turns out there’s another speedster appearing!
Yes, the rumors were true: Bart Allen is appearing in the episode as Impulse!
@SuperheroShows was kind enough to point me to Worlds Finest Online, where they have six still images plus a 50-second preview clip. Update: Chrome is blocking that link as unsafe. Here’s a copy at Superman Homepage. (How does one get on the mailing list for these preview releases?)
Here’s how the episode is described:
An intruder mysteriously appears inside Mount Justice, claiming to be a tourist from the future. But who is he really? And what is his true agenda?
Young Justice “Bloodlines” airs Saturday June 2 at 10:30 am Eastern/Pacific Time on Cartoon Network.
Jay, Barry, Wally and Bart.
Not only that, but Bart as Impulse, written by Peter David, who wrote the entire run of the original Young Justice series.
I am so looking forward to this!
