''Iron Man was a pretty big "if" for Hollywood. Marvel hasn't had the best track of record of comic book-to-movie releases in the last couple of years, with flops like Daredevil and Elektra and a so-so showing for Spider-Man 3. Iron Man could have easily fallen in with the failures, but a slick script that goes far but never too far and some very solid acting by Robert Downey Jr, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Jeff Bridges really made the movie. Sure, the CGI was awesome and the action was intense but still watchable, but it's still the characters that gave it the edge over other similar movies we've seen in the last decade. Sure, the Hollywood version of Iron Man has been a huge success, but it's only been a rare occasion that a movie-licensed game that launches at the same time as its Hollywood counterpart is any good. To date, Chronicles of Riddick has probably been the best one, but that may not even count since it was technically a prequel to the movie.''
EA Motive's Iron Man game will feature writing from Ryan North, the Canadian author behind The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl.
wtf? He has also written in a ton of Marvel comic books, and you quote Squirrel Girl? Click bait at its best.
Motive Studio, which released this year's Dead Space remake, announced this Iron Man game in September of last year.
Wow.. Where have I been to completely miss this.. haha
Glad to see EA Motive getting more responsibility after the good work they seemed to have done with the Dead Space remake. A well-done Iron Man game has the potential to be REALLY good fun!
EA Motive choosing to release its upcoming Iron Man game before the Dead Space 2 Remake is a wise decision for the developer's future.
I didn't really appreciate Iron Man.
The movie was excellent, though.
