View Full Version : X-Men 3: The Last Stand (Video Game Update)

Z-Axis used to work on Acclaim's Dave Mirra BMX games until Activision bought them out. You might assume that they'd set them to work on a new Mat Hoffman BMX title, but no - they're hard at work on X-Men 3.
Three is the magic number here, as a trio of superheroes are playable - Iceman, Nightcrawler and Captain Sideburns (Wolverine). Iceman's levels are set against the clock, with the onus on making ice bridges, ice slides and so on to get through a level as quickly as possible. He can also lob projectiles and summon fatal hailstorms. Naturally.
Nightcrawler's bits take inspiration from Prince of Persia, with lots of acrobatic skills coming into play. The blue mutant has got a unique trick up his sleeve though - the ability to 'bamf' (read: teleport) all over the place. How this'll work during battles and such is unclear, but we guess that you'll just hit a button to vanish and reappear somewhere not too far away. We sincerely hope that this trick can be used to rack up huge combos.
This leaves Wolverine to supply the heavy-handed combat with something that Activision are calling a 'Fury Mode'. There's also a 'Mutant Evolution System' (the ability to upgrade skills) and 'Hyberboard Cut-scenes' to look forward to. Their marketing team must have been put into overdrive.
Rather than follow the plot of the film, the story is penned by comic book writer Chris Claremont and explains what happens in the run up to its silver-screen daddy.
It's due out on absolutely everything - even GameCube, as these details are from NGC - this spring. Around the same time as the movie, no doubt.
Edit: Oh and here's the link:

Kind of reminds me how they made the Riddick game tie into the first film. Loved that.

Jesus Christ there's doubters and complainers on every end! There are too many character or not enough. Give me a break. This game takes place between the events of 2 & 3 so I guess we'll find out what happens to Nightcrawler which is also probably why he's a focal point of the game. X-Axis has always done a good job and you know the other characters will be there for support of some kind.

I'm sure it's just a working title. You know Riddick, Doom, the original Halo, all had only 1 playable character. Halo 2 had 2 playable characters and it was worse than part 1. I understand X-Men is a team but not every member should get focused on in each film or game. Sometimes the other characters have to step back from the light, take a break, or step up. If each character is developed in the game the right way and the missions are long and the details are polished it will be an awesome game.

PRESS RELEASE: Official Xbox Magazine bets on Black
Press release supplied by Games Press 16:11 31/01/2006
31/01/06 – Future's Official Xbox (http://www.gamesindustry.biz/news.php?aid=14399#) Magazine exclusively takes the lid off EA's eagerly-anticipated first person shooter Black next month, delivering the world's first review of the Xbox version and a playable demo.
Also snatching the March issue front cover, Black gets the definitive Official Xbox Magazine treatment, with a comprehensive review. Developed by Criterion, known by gamers for the phenomenal Burnout series – the exclusive Black demo showcases the power (http://www.gamesindustry.biz/news.php?aid=14399#) still untapped in the original Xbox, proving that anything goes in this all-action gunfest.
Issue 53 of Official Xbox Magazine also delivers an exciting first look at the X Men 3 movie adaptation, as well as shots and details of FarCry: The Next Chapter and Medal of Honour: Airborne. The team goes behind the scenes on two of the hottest forthcoming Xbox titles, Hitman: Blood Money and Scarface: The World is Yours – which sees the return of Al Pacino's iconic movie character, Tony Montana.
The March issue also comes with a 100-page tips book, packed with complete solutions for Full Spectrum Warrior: Ten Hammers and Gauntlet: Seven Sorrows, as well as an A-Z of tips for the greatest games available on the Xbox.
Alongside the exclusive playable demo of Black, Official Xbox Magazine's monthly coverdisc also features exclusive playable demos of Stubbs the Zombie, Toca Racer Drive 3 and Knights of the Temple 2. The disc features a complete database of Xbox game ratings (over 600), as well as trailers of The Godfather, Commandos: Strike Force and Painkiller: Hell Wars.
Editor of Official Xbox Magazine, Gavin Ogden said:
"We're delighted we can bring our readers the demo of EA's Black. This goes to show that the Xbox is still capable of producing some truly cutting-edge titles, unrivalled on any other system. The amount of games announced and content still coming for the original Xbox proves there is a great deal of excitement still to be had."
Issue 53 of Official Xbox Magazine goes on sale Thursday, 16th February, with a coverprice of £5.99 – including the essential monthly playable coverdisc.

Hmm... I think they should release it a little before the movie... like even a month, haha. If its a prequel, it should be given enough time to be played before the raging fans, such as ourselves, go to see the movie at the midnight showing.
It sounds like a great idea. I'm not sure about the timed parts - They make me nervous, haha. But I am glad to see more than just Wolverine. Especially Nightcrawler. I just hope he doesn't bite the dust.
Also, I hope that it ties in with the realistic theme of the X-movies.
Too bad we can't play as Storm - I feel your pain, Ant.

I don't really see a problem with only 3 main characters. This is a game based in the movieverse, which doesn't have nearly as many characters as the comics and while only 3 are playable, there are cameos of other mutants. There is a 99% chance that there will be an X-Men Legends 3 filled to the brim with characters to choose from, so instead of having a duplicate of that game, I like that they have focused on 3 completely different (gameplay wise) mutants and have crafted a deep storyline for those 3, something Legends was unable to do because of it roster size.

I agree,as an avid gamer I think the graphics look rubbish:down:(! Also a game, based on a genre that has so many exciting characters, to only give us three playable ones seems like a waste! If you want to play a good X-men game play X-men Legends II its well worth it! This game seems like just another movie-based game that is only being released to promote the movie and was probably rushed to be released before the movie comes out! It's very common nowadays!

Ya i agree the graphics look absolutely garbage. Even the xbox 360 version.
But that is NOT xbox 360's fault. It is the game developr's fault who r making this game. They r not utilizing the power of xbox 360 plain simple.
The truth is any system can have amzing looking games if the devlepor of that game works hard.
ex: GRAW looks absoluetly next-gen graphics and fun to play because ubisoft worked hard.
Elder oblivion 4- beautiful graphics, huge gameplay and very fun because bethesda worked really hard.

Well, these are only screenshots. I thought the video with Deathstrike looked pretty cool. I too wish there were more playable characters. I mean, if this is taking place between X2 and X3, at lease have us experience what each of the main characters are going through. Especially Cyclops, although I am not a big fan of his, he did lose Jean at the end and it would be nice to see what brought him to where he is now in X3. Or at least let us be able to guide him through it.
I am still looking forward to the game though....

How do you come back from the dead when your body is filled with a solidified metal that can only be returned to a liquified state when put over thousands of degrees which would melt the skin and muscles off your bones? That much adamantium could only have been removed if her entire body was heated up to the boiling point of adamantium.
Not to mention, she's also a several thousand pound paper weight at the bottom of a lake now, remember?

Those healing powers don't change the fact that she is a paper weight that literally weighs a few tons. If her healing powers were the answer to that problem, don't you think her claws wouldn't exist? Not to mention, Wolverine wouldn't have an adamantium laced skeleton.

My guess is that they didn't have enough content for the game, so they included one of the more entertaining fights from X2.
Bringing her back as a cyborg would require that A.) someone even knows yuriko is at alkali lake. B.) she's dead and under the water, filled with solid adamantium. and C.) they know how to make a cyborg.
Which character that survived the end of X2 knows how to make a cyborg?

meh. it's a video game. lot's of things happen in video games. It is interesting to guess how she got better. I would go with the her body purging the adamantium out in a long and painful process. The adamantium skeleton stays put because it's bonded and isn't interfering with her body in any negative way, so there is no need for her body to reject it.
Hell, they probably wont explain it at all, just a comment from wolvie about how he thought he killed her and her saying something like "I'm tougher than you thought".

Ha! I finally figured out how to take game screen shots! Someone tried helping me a few days ago, but I messed something up, and now I fixed it.
Here they are!

Sentinel head is in the backround.

Cool Wolverine picture from the game trailer. [Notice the backround. There's something written in another language.]
http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b19/Webhead731/X3gamestorm.jpg
Cool Storm picture.
If someone wants a picture from the game trailer just tell me where it is in the trailer and I'll do it.;)

X-Men III movie game goes mobile
Marvel superheroes return for a third crack at mobile game stardom
You won't be able to escape the X-Men this summer, what with the upcoming X-Men III movie and all manner of tie-ins.
One thing worth looking forward to, though, is the mobile game, sensibly titled X-Men III.
Characters you can play in X-Men III include Wolverine, Nightcrawler, and Iceman. On certain handsets, you'll also get to play as Cyclops and Magneto.
Each character has their own special moves – close-combat for Wolverine, teleportation for Nightcrawler, freezing for Iceman and so on. Another key feature is character development; you upgrade the X-Men's powers as you progress through the game's eight different stages.
Enemies include Pyro, Lady Deathstrike, Silver Samurai and Master Mold – and no, we didn't make that last one up.
The storyline has been written by movie scriptwriter Chris Claremont. Intriguingly, it's set before and after the movie, rather than trying to replicate its plot.

Because it's a Iceman, Nightcrawler, Wolverine game who's characters are the focus of this story tie into X3. Would you rather have 10 playable charcters and no focus and a lousy game or an awesome game where the designers spent lots of time and attention to detail on the story and chracters.

Activision has launched a page for X-Men: The Official Game on their website, offering a few screenshots and a rundown of the story, revealing that fans playing on the Game Boy Advance will be able to play Colossus, and fans playing on the Nintendo DS will be able to play as Magneto.
In addition, Pocket Gamer reports that the cell phone version of the game allows fans to play as Cyclops and Magneto both.

Is anyone else dying for more character artwork from the game? They only released Nightcrawler's, Storm's, and Lady Deathstrikes'. But I'm dying to see the character artwork for Cyclops, Iceman, and Colosuss. I really hope they all get released on the web.

I agree, and while I was mainly against purple, I think that their design would work in the movie, even with the purple.

Sabertooth
Lady Deathstrike
Pyro
Multiple Man
Magneto
Flying Sentinels
Giant Sentinels
Master Mold?
Silver Samurai?
who would you guess as the last villains
personally hope either Toad or Juggernaut

theres been a new preview on the enemies, with SILVER samurai voiced by tom cruise, Multiple man, magneto, and Jason Little as in Stryker's last name was Little i guess. A video of silver too, with wolverine jumping on him, looks fontostic. ITs on IGN, YAHAHAH MUI! MUI!
Multiple's concept art bugs me but i like the final model Yes!
