GNT: Jeff’s Jabs – Expo-sed Cosplay

GNT: It’s been a week since the Calgary Comic and Entertainment Expo has graced the halls of Calgary’s Stampede Grounds and I still can’t get many of the things that I saw over the course of a week out of my head.

I’m not talking about the panels or the exhibition booths and I’m definitely not talking about a paltry example of a Hooters restaurant.

I’m talking about all of the costumes that I saw throughout the course of the event.

An X-Men Retro Collection Would Rival TMNT's Cowabunga Collection

The Cowabunga Collection is one of the best retro collections ever. Another '90s pop culture hit, the X-Men, could comprise a similar collection.

Im not so sure. There was only 1 arcade beat em up and the others were fighters. The home games werent that memorable.

autobotdan577d ago (Edited 577d ago )

The Home xmen games on snes and genesis made by Capcom and Sega were all memorable good

Knightofelemia577d ago (Edited 577d ago )

Side action beat em up is the way to go Xmen only have one cabinet I know of that was done by Konami and I have the arcade game on my PS3. Turtles have two arcade cabinets Turtles has always been a beatem up on the NES, SNES and Genesis minus the first game on the NES. Most of the XMEN games are side scrolling platformers or shitty one offs by LJN. You can't rival side action beatem ups with platformers.

The Author clearly didnt play the 8-16 bit Marvel games. (Most of them sucked)

lodossrage577d ago

Yeah, the x-men game on the nes was ridiculously bad.

And even the snes and genesis games, while they were ok, they aren't games we think of fondly as favorites (well barring this author anyway lol).

HeliosHex577d ago

They were not as good as you might think. Please don't give them ideas.

CrimsonWing69577d ago

I guess… I mean the 2 Sega games were good, I think.

ZeekQuattro576d ago

Spider-man and the X-Men was mediocre at best but X-Men 2 Clone Wars was actually pretty good especially in the sound department.

This is nice, but I wish it had all the marvel games from cps-1 and 2. Three games is just not enough

ApocalypseShadow828d ago (Edited 828d ago )

Loved this game. But it has been surpassed by Openbor with games like these.
Marvel Infinity War. Watch any video like this. So many Marvel characters to play and remakes of other games all packed in.

Download Openbor, download the games from Zvitor br or Game jolt, add a Bluetooth controller and enjoy. Or multiple controllers on PC for multiplayer. You'll thank me later. Even Avengers United Battle Force is great.

Also, Justice League Legacy is also awesome for DC action.
