Maybe they're taking a nod from that, and from the success of sandbox games like the GTA series. And I thought that Doom they showed was Doombot. I didn't think Doom went clanking around or had rocket launchers, so I can definitely get behind not liking that one. You guys ever play Ultimate Alliance or Marvel Legends?

People enjoyed Marvel Superheroes even though it's one-on-one since it did feature heroes beating each other up. Why complicate things?

Apparently not. Nice post! You think after the utter failure that was Marvel Nemesis, EA would just let someone who knows what they’re doing handle the next Marvel game. Apparently not.

It looks like half of their art direction is movie/ultimate oriented (cap, doom, juggernaut) while the other half wants the game to be a nod to old school designs (purple pants hulk, small eyed spiderman). They really ought to make up their damn minds. Also: The lock on feature is evidence the game will suck. There are some real problems going on in their art direction.

Also: I thought when I read the article "c'mon, Doom gets his hands dirty sometimes" Then I saw the video. Geeze, Vic, how are you going to be avenged on the accursed richards if you waste all your ammo on pedestrians? Not just you.
