A punk-goth chick, a Cole MacGrath ripoff complete with Amp, or a douchey jock.

What an unambitious piece of shit.  You can't even design your own mutant?  Fuck off.

I kind of wish it was like Transformers: War for Cybertron that had two campaigns. One for each side of the conflict. It'd be cool if you could chose from several of the actual awesome characters from either side. I'm not really interested in the new mutants they've shown here.

Too early to really tell though. Could be fun. Yet, I'd be way more interested if I could play as Wolvy, Cyclops, or Magneto. How awesome would that be?

@Doctorchimp: Exactly. When I first heard about this game, I envisioned a "Design your mutant and his powers" and I was excited. Then, I heard it was "Oh, no...pick from these three mutants and from these three power sets." AND THE CHARACTERS AND POWERS AREN'T EVEN INTERESTING! It's insanely aggravating to see the ball get dropped this badly. But, I suppose I shouldn't pass judgement until, at the very least, a demo is out.

Agreed this is exactly what I wanted. Playing as your own created character with custom powers has a huge appeal..Why they think we want to play as a set character like this is beyond me.

(although for the record, Too Human was awesome).

Can't stand videos like this where the developers straight up lie about the things they have done never being done before in a video game. Did these guys not play Infamous?

It's Too Human level, I'm calling it.
 
The X-men RPG you always wanted...except you can't make your own mutant....
 
Like really? How easy would it have been to insert a Mutant Editor for your character and have everybody super excited over your game? And they still messed that up. No I don't want to play as your fan-fiction mutant, sorry dude.
