How the hell are they going to F'ing leave the Hulk out of this game? And what about Daredevil and the Punisher?? those three alone are waaaay better than Luke Cage, Spiderwoman, and Deadpool.:mad: :mad:

Blasphemy! :mad:

Hey I like Deadpool as much as the next guy, but comeon, Hulk, Punisher and Daredevil deserve that spot much more than him.

They're bigger icons.

Daredevil and Hulk I can agree on. But Punisher is just a mob killer. At least Deadpool gets from time to time entangled in World threatening events and travels through space. And he's all around the place and would probably even dare to give Doom a wedgie, not that he'd be able to. He deserves that spot as much as anyone else. Especially since he has a huge enough fanbase.

Now if only they could confirm DD

gvcool2
08-18-2006, 09:09 AM
I'd be very veryyy suprised if DD is left out, especially considering the already obscure choice of minor (and frankly unnescary) characters e.g. spider-woman.

Hulk to a degree I can understand why he might be left out, as this game is very much orientated towards team work and lets face it, hulks abilitie of being a team player have alot to be desired

the problem with this game will be the same problem XML2 had, it didm't add much to the first game and was pretty much identical with a few added characters, i feel this will share the same fate, and be a XML clone with added characters

Trigger
08-18-2006, 10:33 AM
On the contrary. I believe it was mentioned that each character was chosen on popularity and the fact they're supposed to control differently. The closest we have to clones are DD/Spidey and Human Torch/Ice-Man.

I don't really mean the characters are clones but essentially its the exact same gameplay, the characters although have all different powers will play the same as they did in XML and it will just get extremely repetitive...the sheer amount of charcacters is although a good thing, will be nothing more than a novelty once people discover they all essentially play the same

And here's an interesting piece of news about Daredevil. I've read this on a couple other sites I usually go to.

There was a guy who lived down the block from the activision building and he got to take a demo of them game. He tested three levels (or 2) and while he was playing he heared Daredevil talking with Elektra and Bullseye was there.

And this was way before the interview that confirmed Bullseye, mind you.

The guy didn't visually see Daredevil. He had to play as certain characters, and when he got to fight Bullseye, Bullseye mentioned Elektra and Daredevil. I have also heard from 2 other sources that he is playable. Don't worry, he'll be in. The only reason he doesn't have a thread is because some people may not believe it. Or by some very unlikely chance, he isn't.

Same goes for Black Panther.

Admin. at that forum says DD is playable :up:

Hey all, been lurking for a while and finally get to put in my two cents.

I find the inclusion of Spiderwoman and Luke Cage a bit odd, but I think that with the way they're adding characters, they've got too many of the Marvel Knights in there not to have DD in the mix.

The team I want to play as most: The "New" Fantastic Four from back in the early 90's. Grey Hulk :hulk: , Spidey :spidey: , Ghost Rider :ghost: and Wolverine :wolverine . That was a pretty cool team so Hulk better be playable!

Last but not least, anyone got an extra sign up for the VIP? I'd love to get in there and look around. I can't get into the link above because my $%#@ company firewall won't let me over there. Please let me know if anyone can help me out.

If we had a Captain Mexico, he'd steal all the money and give it to the politicians :o

Captain Canada fights by hitting his opponents fists with his head and his costume says ''please wipe your feet'' on it :p

I can't honesly understand the point of having Spider-Woman besides he "venom blasts" power-wsie shes just a Spider-Man copy.
actually.. she doesn't really have his powers.. just has spider in the name.. she has venom blasts and gliding.. she sticks to walls i think.. but thats it. I dont recall her having a spider-sense, she doesnt shoot webs either...

So only the Xbox 360/PS3 will get two unlockable characters to play,and the PSP/Wii will get four?(Do you think they will get the two that we get)

So Silver Surfer is one unlockable,which only leaves one more unlockable for Xbox 360/PS3 owners?

And regular Xbox don't get any?

I almost wish Taskmaster would be a playable character too. He's like every badass character you can imagine in one person. He has the Punisher's aim and shooting skills, possesses the Silver Samurai's swordsman skills, has a shield like Cap, can swing and web opponents like Spidey and has the combined agility of Spider-Man and Daredevil.

Looks like Luke Cage is in. He is the person behind Iceman. you can also see him in the two pictures below. You can just make him out above Deadpool in the picture on the left, and the picture to the right has his catchphrase, Sweet Christmas. The headshot next to the catchphrase looks to be an African American person. I'm pretty sure now that he is the person standing behind Iceman in the group shot.

IMO Nick Fury, Black Widow, Black Bolt and Namor would be either boring characters or couldn't work.

Nick Fury - Look, I can shoot things and swear.

Black Widow - I can shoot things AND swing!

Black Bolt - ... - Everytime he just opens his mouth he'd wipe the screen clear. He'd be way too overpowered.

Namor - He can fly and has super strength. Oh, and supposedly he can also use electricity. Which I think he only used once in comic history. But we already have Thor, who guess what, has super strength, can fly and summon Lightning up your ass.

Cyclops couldn't possibly be more boring than a character like Wolverine who's attacks are slash, slash and uh... slash.

I didn't like wolverine much either, cyclops was beam beam beam, and wolverine at least had spinning slash and stuff. All they did with cyclops was change the colours of his beams and make them divide and stuff, and he was a lot weaker to fight normally with than wolverine, so you had to stay back and use abilities!

Bishop and deadpool were probably the best characters to play with, although juggernaught was the most powerful.

Would anyone be kind enough to send me an invite? Not being able to check that website is killing me! I was checking the main site every day, and when i discovered the vip site i was super happy fun time excited. I cant pre-order because i havent decided whether i'm going to buy the Wii yet or wait a while (if us aussies get screwed over by the exchange rate, making Wii not actually that cheap, I'll chuck a hulk!).

Also, does anyone know if either Hulk or Punisher are playable characters? I mean confirmed, not just hinted to... Coz it doesnt make sense y they wouldnt have Hulk as the ultimate bruiser character. And punisher... well, he's just cool. They really need to expand on the marvel universe, so we can be characters we havnt experienced before. I would much rather play as a new character than have cyclops again. Oh well, beggars cant be choosers. Up until a few years ago, all us comic book video game fans had to go on was games like Wolverines Revenge and X-Men next dimension.
So if anyone would be willing to invite me, my email is groovybob@hotmail.... that would be super sweet and fantastic... thanks guys. Help a fan out. :ghost: :unishr: :spidey::wolverine

Why do we have the whole FF in the game, wouldn't we just buy the FF game instead?

I don't like the FF if anyone didn't guess

Looks like Luke Cage is in. He is the person behind Iceman. you can also see him in the two pictures below. You can just make him out above Deadpool in the picture on the left, and the picture to the right has his catchphrase, Sweet Christmas. The headshot next to the catchphrase looks to be an African American person. I'm pretty sure now that he is the person standing behind Iceman in the group shot.

I've been gone here for a while, I'm just wondering if this is real? Is Cyclops really in? If that is true then my team would be complete. The only char missing for me now, is Hulk.:hulk:

These pix are real, but it's very hard to tell exactly who they are, ironman is def, but the others are debateable

Well I think you can also tell pretty well that Spider-Woman is up there.

And here's a better image of Deadpool on the select screen.

How do you host pictures on here? If I wanna put something up that isn't online as an image?
