Konami's X-Men Arcade Beat 'Em Up Coming To PSN, XBLA
I will buy this when it's released. Beat it in like the first 45 minutes, and probably only play it three more times afterward.
And I will love every second of it!
I never played this game in the arcades, but I've always heard good things. I love arcade beat-em-ups, though, so I'll be giving this a try.
Yes! Now...please, oh please just release The Simpsons arcade game and the holy Konami Beat-em-up trinity will be complete.
Answered yourself there. If GR once had plans to charge more than $3 a game, it has long since evaporated along with its relevance. And Konami is too smart to let X-Men go for less than $10." Never played this game, but this seems like something they should put out on Game Room if they were serious about that... "
Wrong game, but:
TANK U, HAWKAI.
You sir can have your Wolverine, I am content with Nightcrawler wrecking everyone's robot faces. I think I might have to make the Colossus super "woooooooooaaaaahhhhhhhh' my txt msg alert sound now.
Also, I am probably the only one that used to play games on the 4up spot in the arcade thinking I got more lives for my money.
Sadly, this will be a day one purchase for me, even though I suspect it will not have aged well at all.
Call me when Captain America and the Avengers hits Live. Now that's an awesome game! Also, the funky Spider-Man arcade game that Sega put out that let you play as Spidey, Black Cat, Hawkeye, and friggin' Namor!
I came really close to making an offer on an old cabinet that's at the local theater. I think they had it next to one of those racing game cabs that had giant speakers built into the sides at one point, because it had the purple blob at a side of the screen from being near a magnet.
Anyway, while not near as sexy, I'm thinking I'll go this route!
I think $10 is the sweet spot for this one. It will be interesting to see what Konami thinks it's worth.
There's a comic book store in my area that has that weird Spidey game on freeplay. Weird game." Call me when Captain America and the Avengers hits Live. Now that's an awesome game! Also, the funky Spider-Man arcade game that Sega put out that let you play as Spidey, Black Cat, Hawkeye, and friggin' Namor! "
I actually thought this one was superior to Cap and the Avengers if for no other reason than six players being better than two. So I'm incredibly psyched about this.
I'm also glad they're not fixing the audio so Magneto will still welcome me to die.
That such a huge game in the arcade and I just aint talking about how popular it was. The machine, cabinet wtf, was huge!
Whoa there, sudden-explosion-of-Nightcrawler-flashbacks - next time give me fair warning before you commandeer my brain!
I never got to play the arcade game so I'm excited for this. I would've liked to see an HD remix though.

Actually, he's pretty dead on. As much as I loved Turtles In Time, back in the day, it doesn't quite have the same appeal anymore, especially as you're not paying with a limited amount of quarters.
