cyclops gives a speech, but thanks to a poor camera angle he just looks like a floating head wearing a big blue condom

external image

one of the main characters shows up to watch and he decided to bring his football cuz he likes SPORTZ

external image

apparently he's a goddamn idiot too because he somehow DOESN'T KNOW about the human/mutant conflict. What? What? How the hell do you live in the Marvel Universe and NOT KNOW ABOUT THE HUMAN/MUTANT CONFLICT.

external image

then this guy walks in front of the camera and you realize how deep into the s*** you've gotten

and it's just the title screen

I think it makes him look like an 8 year old kid dressed up as Cyclops doing a press conference.

This game's concept is one that takes TRUE SKILL to **** up as bad as they did.

X-Men RPG.

I mean, seriously.

Purifier Douchebag guy had the most interesting story, even though it wasn't that good. Asian chick could've been better if they'd done more with her father.

I just recently rented this from Gamefly. Played as Adrian, my girlfriend ran through as Aimi. Have no idea what the football player is like. Despite how bad it is I did actually have fun playing it at times.

Be prepared for incredibly repetitive combat and insanely annoying "combat text pop ups".

It's the only thing he wears now.

The ****tiest costume in modern comics, IMHO.

Cyclops has also been a complete and total ****-up recently, too.

I don't like the condom suit much either, but it's far from the worst costume in modern comics.

And lol at the idea of Cyke being a ****-up. Then again, I believe we established we disagree on that one lol.

so you guys can now pick a mutation! this is really stupid because like

japanese chick is obviously the shadow knives
evil hispanic kid is obviously energy blaster
and dumb football guy is obviously the density control

so you guys can choose a power whether it be appropriate to Grant or really dumb or whatever, I don't care and I doubt the gameplay will be revolutionary regardless

Meh. When it comes to Wanda things are always gonna get heated and he has a point-whatever is done with her should be handled by the mutant community.

I'm behind on it though, so unless he's done anything besides say "BURN THE WITCH" or whatever it was he said and then start fighting the Avengers I don't really care. That was pretty bad writing in that issue anyway.

Also, just because he can be a bit of a dick sometimes doesn't make him a ****-up.

Energy Projection is ok at first but gets really boring. It's also got some collision detection issues.

Shadow Blades is really generic "dark" powers. Fast though.

Never used Density Control. Seems to basically be the tank set.

Thats because Marvel hates Summers, and do everything in their power to make him look very bad compared to Sknit bub.



Jim Lee's Cyke outfit best. Or hell any of the costumes where they don't take the Cylops part literally.

I'm gonna start using Imageshack cuz it downscales the huge ass pictures. I didn't realize that the game runs at goddamn 1920x1080. Do you believe that? 1080p. This piece of garbage is so low-grade in the graphics department that they can pull off full 1080p resolution. They should have put it at 720p to create the illusion that it actually needed the processing power in other places.

external image

So we start with an install! I can't believe a game this ugly with such little depth took like 20 minutes to install:


external image

MARVEL PRESENTS

external image

A SILICON KNIGHTS GAME. I wonder if Psycho Mantis knows about this one, too?

external image

blah blah blah did you guys know that silicon knights doesn't actually own x-men? whooooa

external image

and on GNN news, we find out that the newly discovered "PNA" may be the source of all the recent changes in acronyms. LMDO!

external image

"yeah, I dunno, I woke up and this lady's face and this third arm were growing out of my head"

external image

Ladies and gentlemen, the face of evil. We'll be seeing them in literally EVERY FIGHT for the first few hours because I guess they all decided to be white people with the same build, same voice, and same haircut. Also they all have each other's numbers so they can coordinate their outfits.

external image

our story begins with Bastard, some alien cyborg from the future (this is X-Men so everything has to be from the future), giving Professor X a huge ice cream headache using some weird photoshop effects

external image

so Magneto gets upset that Bastard kills his best buddy, and uses his soapy bubble power to cleanse Bastard from this time period. Then he dies. I guess. They said he dies but he's on the cover of the game so you know he didn't.

external image

unfortunately, Professor X had the only key to the front door of his mansion, so now the X-Men have to look for somewhere else to live

external image

this guy is another key player. I assume this only because he gets a nice watercolor painting in the opening, too. I'm calling him Kirby, because I can't remember what his real name is. Kirby really loves mutants for an unexplained reason, and somehow convinces California to let them stay. This is kinda like the comics I guess; I think it's some kinda commentary on gay people?

external image

forced homage to Days of Future Past. It's like the devs were saying "hey look we read comics too! please accept us" but then you realize this is the #1 most parody-able thing about X-Men from one of the most iconic covers and that it's even in an UMvC3 stage, and you kind of lose your nerd cred.

external image

occupy wall street joke

external image

left to right: Emma Frost, Cyclops, Kirby and generic white governor that will never be seen again. Why not make him black? Or Arnold Schwarzenegger.

I can't believe the game starts out like this! Peace, love, hugs and rainbows? I wish they elaborated more on how the hell CYCLOPS, King of the Douche Island, has furthered Mutant/Human relationships more than Xavier ever did

external image

also, nightcrawler is there. he's popular, right? let's cut to him.

external image

Cyclops talks about what an honor it is to have come this far since he first immigrated from Douche Island. Also it looks like he's putting his teeth together and blowing air out to make a creepy wet hissing sound.

Ladies and gents, our heroes! Well, one of them. It's assumed the other two die. Sucks for them, I guess. I love playing God! Who gets to keep their life today?
