Superman screens return

Five new shots of the Man of Steel in action

The only thing going for Superman Returns (the game) at the moment is that it was delayed a good six months for some extra tweakage. That means it'll be a bit better than what it would have been if it came out alongside the movie in May.

EA has been super quiet about the movie-tie in for some time, but the silence has been shattered with five new shots.

The game's now slated for release next to the DVD movie release this November on pretty much every platform out there. All things going well...

Check out what must be 360 shots right here

For some reason this game looks like it is going to be crap. I am a big Superman fan and I should be excited but I have not seen anything to get me to buy this game.

Grown Folks Talk6505d ago

look at the previous history for superman games, or superheroes in general. not a good track record overall. i liked sunsofts batman for nes and the spider man games for xbox. other than those i'll pass.

General6505d ago

Graphics look bad but the gameplay sure looks fun.

Jak4ever6505d ago

This game does look like alot of fun, but i do have a feeling that its not going to fly off the shelves.

Daewoodrow6505d ago

Actually from what i've heard the game could be pretty good. You can travel around all of metropolis, not sure about loading, you can fly up towards the sun to recharge your abilities, and instead of a life meter, which is silly for superman, you have a meter for how damaged the city and public are.

headblackman6505d ago

they've got alot of work to do with this one :/ i doesnt look next gen. at all

Daewoodrow6505d ago

I could agree, it is afterall another last gen port across so they can get as much profit from it as possible, and I wont buy it for more than £30.

Mortal Kombat 9 Is Still NetherRealm's Best Game 13 Years Later

Salman from Tech4Gamers writes "Mortal Kombat 9 revived the series from a low point after bringing it back to 2D combat. It marked a new high-point for the franchise due to its incredible roster, exciting cinematic story mode, and high-octane combat."

I agree. 9 was awesome

Shaolin Monks next please

vTuro245h ago

Shaolin Monks is a forgotten gem. I would love to see a new one, or a remake of the old.

vTuro245h ago

That game was actually goated. It was the first time ever that I actually tried to get good at a fighting game. Unfortunately the online connection was so dogshit it made it hard to enjoy and eventually I gave up. Haven't really played much fighting games since.

The Dishwasher
Vigilante 8

Two non-BC and no-PC-version Arcade titles I downloaded recently. Dishwasher's sequel is on Steam at least.

I've also downloaded Ninety-Nine Nights II (shame the first wasn't available). I still want to download Burnout 3: Takedown before the weekend's up, though that is still the full $9.99 non-discounted price

franwex5h ago

Burnout 3 not available in modern times is a crime to humanity.

I know it’s probably due to the music licensing-though they can simply add other music as Burnout 3’s biggest flaw to me personally-is the music!!!

Xbox gamers warned they've 72 hours before a ton of classic games are gone forever

The Xbox 360 Marketplace is officially shutting down in three days, which means dozens of exclusive, digital-only 360 games will no longer be available to purchase anywhere else once it does.

The Xbox 360 will be almost 20 years old next year, and to celebrate this milestone Microsoft have decided to obliterate all of its online functionality.

Phil Spencer: "Game preservation is critical to us at Team Xbox."

Technically, the games ARE preserved... they are just removing the ability to purchase new games through the 360. They have to keep a full backup of every title (even delisted ones) because they will have to offer the ability to redownload purchased content to users.

I had deleted some games a few years back that had become delisted. I was able to get them back by going through my download history. The games in question were TMNT (classic and re-shelled), afterburner climax and outrun online. Im glad I was able to get those back as they are some of the best on the service.

Lightning779h ago

Well The Ultimate Alliance games have been delisted. I dunno how many old Activision games have been Delisted but MS needs to remake or remaster old Activision games and release them on Xbox and PS. I. Hope that's what they're doing right now.

They can't reserve everything but they 100% can reserve what they got or own.

Fortunately, the X360 was jailbroken a long time ago, so a good part of its library is available for download from 'alternative' sources. Still, it's a bummer to see the store going away.

Dawn of The First Day
-72 Hours Remain-

Also they can keep the store up for life if they wanted.

hiawa238h ago(Edited 8h ago)

Series X for the back compat titles, and OG Xbox and X360 for those not on BC. I pretty much bought all of the digital games I want for the 360 so I am good.

anast6h ago

They are holding games hostage so people spend more money. This is some sleazy stuff.

Reaper22_5h ago

No, not telling you would be sleazy. I have a few more games to buy then I'm good. 360 was and still is a great console. Xbox is the best place to play!

anast4h ago

I'm not sure we are on the same page.

kennyg1231h ago
