Freddy Krueger was top selling DLC character in Mortal Kombat 9

Ed Boon posted a Tweet the other day divulging an interesting bit of information about the Mortal Kombat 9 DLC characters. It appears that between Kenshi, Rain, Skarlet and Freddy Krueger, Freddy was the top selling and most downloaded of the bunch.

Freddy Ended up being the best selling of all the DLC characters in MK9... Hmm? ....go figure!

— Ed Boon (@noobde) May 14, 2013

This comes as a surprise as many players felt the decision to make Freddy Krueger a playable character in MK9 was a bit out of left field.

This begs the question: Will NeatherRealm Studios include another obscure character as DLC in their latest fighter, Injustice: Gods Among Us, and will it have similar results?

If you could choose a character that isn't DC Comics related to include in Injustice as DLC, who would it be?

Ed Boon states Batgirl's release will be next Tuesday - Injustice: Gods Among Us

NeatherRealm Studios' own Ed Boon posted a quick statement on Twitter earlier today regarding the next Injustice: Gods Among Us DLC character, Batgirl. Boon mentions that she will be available for download next Tuesday.

Rumor has it that Batgirl will be available to download for INJUSTICE next Tuesday. Just sayin' ....

— Ed Boon (@noobde) May 15, 2013

While he does preface the Tweet with "rumor has it", the details are a bit too specific for it to be just that. This is also far from Mr. Boon's usual style of dropping hints and teasers, so this is likely accurate information.

All players looking to try out Batgirl will be able to download her on Tuesday, May 21. Her pricing will be similar to Lobo's and she will cost 400 Microsoft Points over on Xbox 360 and $5.00 USD on PlayStation 3.

Additionally, we may be seeing a fix for the rage quitting issue many players have been experiencing as of late. When asked about this issue a couple of days ago, Hector Sanchez briefly hinted that a fix may be included with the Batgirl update.

CD Jr. lists top 5 characters in Injustice: Gods Among Us - Black Adam not among the best, unsafe on many things

More top Mortal Kombat 9 players continue to share their thoughts on who they feel are currently the best characters in Injustice: Gods Among Us. Another one of the Empire Arcadia boys, CD Jr., posted a couple of Tweets recently that divulge his picks for top 5.

Below are CD Jr.'s top 5 character choices.

CD Jr. posted another Tweet stating that Black Adam isn't nearly as good as many players have been saying he is.

We see that CD Jr.'s top 5 isn't too far off from the top characters chosen in EMP|Tom Brady and EMP|REO's tier list. Cyborg, Superman and Aquaman show up as top tier in both lists with Batman, Black Adam, Deathstroke, Doomsday and Green Lantern not being too far behind.

Now that three excellent MK9 players have given us their opinions on who the best are in Injustice, what do you think? Do you feel these lists are accurate?
