Coming this fall, X-Men Destiny is set after the death of Professor Xavier and will allow you to shape a new mutant as they come to terms with their new found power.

Mrs Nesbitt from BBG writes: "The superhero genre is massive in the movie industry with MCU dominating the scene with several Avengers movies and other subsequent titles. So, what about video games? Similar to the game to movie transition, movies have not always transitioned very well. (Dare I mention Charlie’s Angels for GameCube?) Luckily for us, we have had some spectacular superhero games, and equally, some downright “what were they thinking” titles."
PS1 Spider-Man Wins it for me because Stan Lee narrated it all, his opening speech alone gets you pumped, also Worst: Spider-Man: Web of Shadows...ew
I agree with the 1st spiderman. I have it on DC though. Hulk UD is a fun game as well.
Probably in the minority but I really enjoyed Batman Begins before the Arkham series came along.
Deadpool was trash though, it's surprising to me that Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker isn't on the list but then again that's probably a good thing.
Ah yes and Spider-Man (2000) man that game was my childhood but the sequel Enter Electro was so underwhelming.
Neocrisis - Does the emphasis on "choice," as opposed to a more traditional linearity, make Destiny stand out from the rest? Or does Destiny fall short of its potential?
THis really should be an MMO. Gah.
Shape a super hero, I'm sold
