Zimbra Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Marvel Entertainment and Square Enix announced today a multi-year, multi-game partnership, leading with the reveal of The Avengers project. This newly established partnership pairs the creative minds at Marvel and Square Enix for one of the most powerful alliances in interactive entertainment. OK, I can get behind that.

Craig H Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 OH SHIT! Please please please please please be a way awesome version of the Raven Software games. As for Prey, I'm totally digging the Half-Life meets Dead Space vibe. Looks awesome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is exciting, though I admit that I was hoping that their next project would be another Fallout game for Bethesda, except without Bethesda trying to bankrupt and buy them like they did with the New Vegas development (and like they did to Human Head with Prey, IIRC).

J.T. Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 I am also stoked to see Square Enix associated with Marvel. I am trying to be excited about Pillars of Eternity 2 but I was snakebitten by Alpha Protocol and remember how buggy KOTOR2 and Fallout" new Vegas were, so I am now somewhat wary about anything with Obsidian's name on it. Dungeon Siege III was a solid and simple RPG, though, and Southpark: The Stick of Truth was pretty awesome so I am cautiously optimistic about PoE2...

To be honest, PoE (and likely PoE 2) played much more like Neverwinter Nights/Baldur's Gate than anything else you mentioned. And PoE managed to release with only a few small problems, as I recall. I never could get the hang of the game (I was never good at Baldur's Gate types) but it has an amazing story and a dedicated fan base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Wilson Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Double Dragon II was probably the game I played the most as a kid, so it holds a special place in my heart. I don't expect Double Dragon IV to be amazing, but I do know that when my brother comes to town next month it will be a fun walk down memory lane. Note that it doesn't have online co-op. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Wilson Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 There are a lot of Zelda videos on youtube but I love this one because there is no commentary. Really like the artwork. Just one more month. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably will get this, but it seems odd that they are using assets from the NES version of DD2 instead of the arcade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Square Enix working with Marvel obviously just means shoe-horning Marvel characters into Kingdom Hearts. IT IS NECESSARY FOR PLOT DEVELOPMENT. Also Star Wars. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally forgot that Paradox Interactive is the publisher for this game. I've always hoped they'd do something with the White Wolf IP they bought back in 2015, but so far zilch. I still have three pipe dreams I cling on to: 1) There will be another game using the VtM or a new game using the VtR material. 2) There will be another Legacy of Kain game (what is it with me and vampire games?) 3) There will be a sequel to Skies of Arcadia. I guess I will have to depend on Dontnod Entertainments upcoming Vampyr for my nocturnal bloodsucker video game needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Just when I thought that Star Citizen was going to become vaporware despite the release of the FPS component of the game (Space Marines) late last year, Cloud Imperium has announced that they are looking for linguists to help them create the five distinct alien languages that will be used in the game. Sooner or later they are going to have to release an actual working product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
