New X-Men Video Game Announced
I would luv for the X-Men to get the MMO treatment. Something that would be easily done since the X-Gene has the potential to exist in any born human. Of course that wouldn’t work in the current canon since M-Day. I would also luv to see a good RTS game taking place in some sort of alternate timeline where the X-Men were not just a team but an army. I think that would be interesting. Of course the general action/adventure game angle is nice with a mix of RPG elements but those have been done over and over again.
" @Red Rum said:lol whoever becomes Beak or Squid-Boy" Instead of choosing your power(s), they should make you take a personality quiz, and appoint powers according to your scores. "Not a bad idea, although making it mandatory would suck. "
OK I AM GONNA SAY IT! I bet you 100% your going to be able to make a character that has pixie wings. So the crazy Pixie fans can try to create some half goth half hellokitty mutant girl ! im just sayin. I hope that it allows you to be original!
Not sure why everyone is so excited for this at this point. 99.8% of comic book video games have been mediocre at best, utter s&*% at their worst.
The recent Batman game is an enormous exception. Don't get me wrong, I hope this game will turn out good, but the probability that it will is tiny and thus my expectations are low.
boo, rather have X-Men Legends 3: Second Coming or something that focuses on Sinister as the big bad...
"My head is close to exploding with anticipation "
agreed
there's a ticking noise in my ears.......
Game's being developed by Silicon Knights, creators of the very meh Too Human and the very awesome Eternal Darkness. So we'll see how it turns out. My hopes are not high.
" Not sure why everyone is so excited for this at this point. 99.8% of comic book video games have been mediocre at best, utter s&*% at their worst.But when they suck, I get to make fun of them in editorial pieces. That's at least fun for me.
This has immediately jumped to the top of my list for most anticipated game 2011. This is the kind of game I have been waiting for. I'm really hoping that what we'll see goes beyond the core X-Men group. I really want to see the younger X-men in this game.
My question is, will this be a real rpg, with tons of side quests etc.., or will it be more like mua?
As long as it's not an MMO, I will love it. Best way to do these would be mix between Fable,X-Men Origins: Wolverine, & Ultimate Alliance. Mix those 3 game together with some X-men originality and Activision could make a great marvel game
So G-Man has Precog powers. Nice :-)
Hopefully his prophecy means that a Moon Knight game is due soon as well ;-)
"Awesome. Getting that. Instapurchase. But please God, don't let this be an MMO. "
THIS
for real
" @Power NeXus: Get a console you dinosuar"
I have a console.
It's an X-Box.
Original.
My life sucks...
NYCC's Marvel panel discussed X-Men: Destiny every so breifly
it IS NOT an MMO
which is good news
and Mike Carey had this to say when asked about the challenge of making the characters seem true to themselves....
"One of the pleasures is that when you meet a good character, you instantly feel that it is REALLY that character, rather than being at arm’s lengths. Also adding in the fact that powers aren’t always good, sometimes people hate you, fear you, and you need to find a place where you belong and make important decisions that affect your world. "
so what does this mean?
well, at least we won't be asking Kitty Pryde who she is and having her explain phasing to us, like in XML2
and it sounds like there will be multiple options for powers
some that will seem scarier to the general pubic than others
NEAT.
Mike Carey is a God. I'm really excited for this game. I mean, its Silicon Knights, so we could have a bit of a fail on our hands, yet at the same time, the X-Universe has so much potential for a game of this sort. I'm hoping for an Action RPG of sorts, similar in scope to Mass Effect would probably be best. Too extreme like Dragon Age won't suit the origin of the comics, but yeah....
