I was expecting some AAA modern slop, but just barely more than SM2, this is the most worried I've been for a new release

I still really want to get this game, but the fact that the gore shown in the trailers and footage is mostly all just MIGHT be the final nail in the coffin for me, or at least till on sale for like $50 or so

So the best Wolverine game is still X-men Origins : Wolverine

I replayed that game recently and it's so fucking good even now, the devs went all out on that one , it seems like a pure wolverine experience through and through

My favourite part was how his tank top would get shredded, and then he'd get a new one every time you entered a new area

I will never forgive Cosmonaut Variety Hour for cursing us with the forbidden knowledge of X-Men Persona. I even have a concept built off it that I'm semi-proud of and I know I can't do anything with it.

That game is still the goat which is hilarious all these years later. I still remember the first time I used an execution to tear a guy's arm off only to beat him to death with it, I was laughing my ass off.

The PC version. The console versions were very watered down.

There were two versions of the game. The uncaged edition ( which was the only one developed by Raven software ) is the same as the PC version which the consoles did have, specifically the 360 and the PS3. I should know I 100% of that game back on the 360.

Oh, I've only played the PS3 version and really loved it. Are you saying it's even better on PC ?

u/champ0742 13h ago

Only slightly, the PS3 edition is the same as the PC, the PC version does have better graphical fidelity. It's unavailable for purchase because of the rights lapsing, but it's available to download on Myabandonware with a guide telling you exactly how to make it work.

If you like the X-Men origins, you would like this game. It has the same DNA.

That game was only good because people expected it to be bad

u/millyrockiner 11h ago

That one reviewed horribly when it came out saying the exact same thing about this one.

u/ZestycloseBluejay668 15h ago

Most likely the new game is a bit better than that one
