Heroes don’t get any bigger!
Marvel’s Ant-Man for Pinball FX2 Review
First off, this is late. I know it’s late. Ant-Man released not long ago. Why is my review late? Well, part of that is down to me being sick, and part is due to a gameplay problem. For the last few weeks I have had massive issues with Pinball FX2 running on Xbox One. Between crashing when loading the game and crashes when submitting high scores, there’s a lot to be said for general gam...[Read More]

More from C2E2: Marvel Puzzle Quest: Dark Regin
While at C2E2 this past weekend, I wasn’t just talking about action figures and ogling Spandex-clad gentlemen. While this convention is mostly about comics, there are usually some games on display there as well. I got to chat with some of the team from D3 Publisher, which is the company that brought us one of my favorite Nintendo DS games ever: Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords. They w...[Read More]

Deadpool Releases Self-Made Trailer for Upcoming Game
I’m sure Deadpool had Weasel’s help putting this together, what with all of the video editing and special effects work that had to be done. That being said, he did a great job at presenting his game in a professional manner, as well as introducing his best buddy Cable! For me, Deadpool’s time with Cable was one of my favorite comic runs ever, so color me excited to see them fooli...[Read More]
Ubisoft Unveils More Marvel Avengers: Battle for Earth at Comic-Con
With Marvel Avengers: Battle for Earth, there seem to be three camps: anticipatory, apathetic, and dismissive. I place myself firmly in the anticipatory camp, because I honestly think that the potential entertainment value of this game is being nurtured and developed by the right hands: Ubisoft. The trailers, while definitely not representative of gameplay when compared to the less than stellar sc...[Read More]
Marooners’ Talk: Episode 036 – “In Which Rogue Steals Manfaces Instead of Mutant Powers”
Thankfully putting our fears of Adam’s demise last week to rest, Adam himself returned triumphantly to this week’s episode of Marooners’ Talk (the 36th of its line), titled, “In Which Rogue Steals Manfaces Instead of Mutant Powers.” Last week, we discussed the Marvel NOW! announcement and what it meant to us (very little). Between the two recordings, I got a look at t...[Read More]
Marooners’ Talk: Episode 035 – “In Which We Mourn the Loss of Adam”
For the most part over the last few months, we’ve managed to keep our podcasting trio intact. Occasionally, however, either Thom or Adam will totally let everyone down and fail to appear on a weekly episode. Last night, Thom and I found ourselves in just one such situation, as Adam may have died (but we’re fairly certain…pretty sure…hopeful that he’s alive). That bein...[Read More]
Review: The Amazing Spider-Man (360/PS3)
Activision and Beenox have had an interesting time with Marvel’s most popular hero. Shattered Dimensions was an awesome love letter to the fans, and Edge of Time managed to have a great story (despite a lot of people disliking it). With the history of Spider-Man titles being what it is, does The Amazing Spider-Man manage to soar, or does it plummet? This time, Beenox has done the movie tie-i...[Read More]
