Of course there is a new Spider Man game coming later this year. Of course not based on the movie, but still...

2017-05-22 10:37:07 +0000 UTCGame production cycles are too long and cost too much now. To make a good tie-in game you would need 3-5 years and a huge budget, for a 6-7 scored game (most games score in this range). There's the risk of script leaks, character model leaks. Timing is crucial, so delays would kill the project. High risk, low return. Best case scenario: LEGO games and Scott Pilgrim type side-scrollers.
2017-05-22 09:55:22 +0000 UTCShame on you Huber! Clearly a misuse of the term "One of the greats". I demand repentance!
2017-05-21 07:40:40 +0000 UTCIt is pretty strange that we're more capable of accurately conveying actors likenesses and performances than ever, but licensed movie games are at an all time low..

2017-05-20 00:18:18 +0000 UTCYou act like it's too late. They remade them in more HD. Asylum is the best, but city is pretty darn good too. Avoid the others.
2017-05-19 21:25:06 +0000 UTCFantastic episode, Huber! I'd also recommend both Riddick games and the adaptation of Lord of the Rings: Return of the King...probably my most played game of ALL TIME.
2017-05-19 16:28:15 +0000 UTCThe last superhero game I played that was a based on a movie tie-in was Batman Forever for the Genesis. For crying out loud that was two decades ago! Even the last non movie tie-in superhero game I played was two decades ago. It was Superman 64 >____< I really should have tried out the Batman Arkham games. I'm sure I would have loved them.

2017-05-19 13:22:38 +0000 UTCX-Men Origins: Wolverine is an excellent superhero game, glad to see some love. Those lunge mechanics, such a cool thing to do.
