DarkZero writes: "Okay, the movie is amazing. Robert Downey Jr. as the alcoholic billionaire turned armour-clad superhero Tony Stark, who blasts his way through legions of terrorists as Iron Man. It is action packed, entertaining and – on paper – would make an excellent videogame. The same thing has been said about many a superhero movie tie-in and unfortunately, most of them have been horrendous. Sure, there have been some decent ones; Spider-Man 2 and the underrated Hulk: Ultimate Destruction spring to mind, but then you've got utter turds like Superman Returns and Batman Begins. How on earth you screw up playing as two of the greatest superheroes of all time, I will never understand.
It is simple, really. When you pick up that superhero game off the shelves of your local GAME, you want to feel like you are them. Yet, time after time, you end up playing another generic action game with your favourite comic book hero shoved into it. Sure, accurately mimicking Daredevil's enhanced sense of hearing would be tough, but Iron Man? He has a big metal suit that gives him the power of flight, super strength and the ability to fire massive laser blasts at his enemies. Easy, no?"
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.
I honestly don't know since I'm only a casual Marvel fan, do people like Squirrel Girl?
Motive Studio, which released this year's Dead Space remake, announced this Iron Man game in September of last year.
Wait for gameplay first. Why do people blindly hype games without any solid video evidence?
like exomecha, game looked amazing, they even showed unreal engine 5 updates, meanwhile its year and half later, company is gone, website is for sale and the company is gone
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!
Wouldn't be an entirely bad thing if we're talking about using the flight from Anthem. The up and go/flight was pretty solid. It was the shooting and other aspects that made Anthem subpar imo. So if we're talking combat then they need to do some work. Granted, even if they opted to use flight from Anthem some work would probably still need to be done regarding fast paced aerial combat. 2 cents
I agree. Anthem’s flight mechanics were smooth and responsive. This Ironman game needs to take that and improve upon it further.
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.
