I don't get how something like this gets canned, this looked amazing.

Pikajew4602d ago

We dont get this but we get Thor the movie game

NewMonday4601d ago

It got canned because it is great, and movie tie-in's aren't allowed to be good. /S

honestly whoever canceled the game should be the one "canned", just think of how great online co-op would have been.

deadpoole4601d ago

This effin trailer is filled with spoilers of what is goin to be in actual movie .... :(((

morganfell4602d ago

They canned the game because they required more funding to advertise Homefront.

silvacrest4601d ago

lol really? that POS broken game?

wow....

Madusha4602d ago

Absoulutely amazing game. This should be picked up by someone else and continued. Reminds me a bit of Skyrim with more destruction hehe =D

SilentNegotiator4602d ago (Edited 4602d ago )

The playable Superman game on the ps1 was cancelled, the game based on the flash was cancelled, and now this...

So many good superhero games die young :(

hilyou4602d ago

maybe this could hav been THE BEST superhero movie tie in video game! the only thing i didnt like was there were 2 hulks, it should hav benn each player has a different avenger! imagine if this had 4 player spiltscreen!

NewMonday4601d ago

or give different players different costumes from comic cannon, like:

green Hulk, grey Hulk, red Hulk, Meastro

gold Iron Man armor, classic red and gold, War Machine

Ultimat C.America, Bucky, USAgent, Super Solder

Beta Ray Bill, 1602 Thor, Ultimate Thor

supersonicjerry4601d ago

It was only alpha gameplay so yeah i'm sure they wouldn't have left it like that.

Bigpappy4602d ago

Looks like a good game for Kinect.

SilentNegotiator4601d ago (Edited 4601d ago )

Not at all.

Slow reaction times, completely unread movements, and action games do not mix.

You want a GOOD superhero game? You're going to need quick reactions for all of the action.

NewMonday4601d ago

i think it would fit Move better, at least as optional controles

Ayepecks4602d ago

If you look at the other games this studio has made, they're all utter garbage. This is a production reel designed to show the very best aspects of the game, so of course it's going to look good. It's like saying "I made 100% on all the questions I got right on my exam!"

Not saying this couldn't have been good, just saying you guys are getting worked up over nothing.

Chevalier4601d ago

Rocksteady games wasn't well known before either and they made Batman Arkham Asylum and are making Arkham City. So pedigree isn't everything.

Ayepecks4601d ago (Edited 4601d ago )

@ Chevalier: Rocksteady had made one previous game that got decent-to-good reviews (75%). This studio is most definitely not in that category -- their last two games have gotten average review scores of 33%/43% (360, PS3 version) and 51%.

All the reviews I can find of their games have aggregate scores of the 50% range or less (Google "THQ Australia Studio").

antz11044601d ago

Regardless above, the churned out Batman AA, which in my opinion is the best superhero game ever made. That kinda puts them at the top of the list for me:)

Jamzluminati4601d ago

FPS+Avengers.

I see why they canned it.

mcmmaster4602d ago

So Iron Man 2 and the Thor game get green lit but this doesn't, THQ must have been smoking all kinds of shit when the closed down the studio that was developing such an awesome co-op avengers game

pennyman4602d ago

I'd be curious to see what kinda game ties in with the Avengers movie

KingSlayer4602d ago

That looked freaking unreal. By the looks of it, co-op too. Damn you THQ.

Marvel's Avengers Defeats Tony Hawk And NBA To Claim No.1

Compared with the last big Marvel video game, Spider-Man on PS4 (which also launched in September 2018), the numbers are radically different. Avengers sold less than a third than what Spider-Man managed to do in the UK during its debut week (physical sales only).

Only a third of Spider-Man's sales? And this one is multiplatform too.

-Foxtrot1325d ago

Kind of hilarious that a exclusive, one platform, single player driven Marvel game like Spiderman managed to sell more than a huge, live service focused online multiplatform title feathering all the Avengers, and then some.

Then you have the fact the PS4 Spiderman is just a better game in everyway while the Avengers is a repetitive, grindfest that you can bored of in a few hours.

Phoenix761323d ago

I'd like to know what the actual sales numbers are. And then compare them to Marvel Spider man and Marvel Iron Man (psvr)

badz1491323d ago

and they say Disney will force Sony's hands to make Spider-man a multiplat LOL

toxic-inferno1324d ago

A brand-new action-adventure game starring some of the most popular characters in fandom, beating a remake of an already niche pair of games. Not exactly a surprise.

I really hope that Tony Hawk sells well enough to revive the series though. I've been having an absolute blast with the game. The way Vicarious Vision have managed to capture the feel of the original is nothing short of spectacular.

Profchaos1323d ago

I think there's been enough praise and I hope sales to at least warrant a remake of 3/4 it's actually up there in my goty so far as it's extremely addictive also so far no mtx.

toxic-inferno1323d ago

I wonder whether they will go down the route of the 2012 (?) remake and provide THPS3 as DLC.

THPS4 would definitely need to be a separate release. But I'd love a THPS4 remake. I spent a lot of time on that game.

LucasRuinedChildhood1324d ago (Edited 1324d ago )

Was gonna say that same thing

Darkborn1324d ago

It's really because everyone wanted to hate this game just because it didn't have Thanos and everyone from the MCU as actors in the game.

Profchaos1323d ago (Edited 1323d ago )

I think the showcased gameplay looked to be just another on the rails action qte button masher. I've said it all along it was poorly marketed but will sell incredibly well because it's a globally popular franchise I've heard the game is good from a few friends but I was put off buying it by the advertised material that came out so far.

jukins1323d ago

You should probably play it rather than parrot the opinion of those who were already set on hating it. Theres few qte. ..and definwtly not a button masher.

Elda1323d ago

Not surprising. It's Marvel.

txboy051323d ago

And rightfully so. Having a blast with Avengers, Cap is the best and was well done by these guys. The way his shields zips around never gets old. All y’all haters are missing out ! Oh well lol
