I remember buying many a game with my favorite heroes plastered on the front only to be met with the bitter disappointment of how awfully terrible they all were."
Just in time for Thanksgiving, enjoy these awful games.
Cultured Vultures: Following the reveals for Wolverine and Spider-Man 2, there are some other new superhero games that'd make us very happy indeed.
I'd be down for Invisible I enjoyed the cartoon I wouldn't mind at least seeing a new Mystery Men movie that could lead to a game. Or even give Kick Ass a game I though hits movies were pretty good Wild C.A.T.S would also be an interesting game.
I’d like to see a world breaker hulk vs the Illuminati game. Or army of darkness vs marvel zombies.
Superman Returns had potential and to me the best Superman game to date. Yet it lacked so many features like Superman music from John Williams , day and night cycles, Sidequests spaceflight, weather changes and much more. Take Returns foundation and expand to current gen and give slice of what Arkham did for Batman.
WTMG's Leo Faria: "Why do we do this? We are well aware that a specific licensed game isn’t good, yet we actually manage to be less critical, we manage to overlook its issues, and enjoy these tie-ins, these perfect definitions of the word “shovelware”, without an issue. What is it about these games that makes us more… tolerant? Is it the novelty of playing a game based on a license we like? Is it some kind of psychological effect that reminds us of simpler days? Does it mean that playing these games brings out the best version of the gamer inside of us?"
i know everyone is going to disagree, but batman arkham city. asylum was astounding though imo
"LJN" -- the three worst letters known to man.
SuperMan 64. I got it cheap at a local video store when I was 13 where I used to live. It was only 25 cents. I got it only because of how bad I heard it was. YES, it really IS that bad.
Also: Anyone remember that terrible Spawn: The Eternal game for PS1? Wow I remember giving my big sister all of my allowance so she could go buy it for me (since I was under-aged), and then when I played it I damned near ripped my hair out. Trash game.
I can tell this isnt an American article, cuz if it was it would include the xbox Burger King games
As a kid I actually thought Superman 64 was good. Man what was I smoking back then?
