It wasn't that long ago. THe first phase MCU movies had games.

Batman Begins had a pretty sweet game.

I think the Lizzie McGuire movie had games.

Seems like we aren't getting movie tie in games anymore. All the big superhero movies would be prime videogame material but nope.

not really complaining because they tend to be awful, but why did that trend stop? Is it too expensive to develop a crappy cash grab game now that's not guarenteed to sell?

Because they learned they can get more money by going mobile.

And to be fair, that makes the most sense. These movie games are rarely more than a quick cash grab.

A Thor Ragnarok game would've been cool.

I had assumed they still did, I just didn't see them around since I'm not just browsing games at a store anymore.

Even Minority Report had a game. I kinda miss them.

They often did suck though.

Because as awesome as it would be to have games off of recent superhero amd action movies, they would suck cause they are cash grabs.

Guardians of the Galaxy would be a dancing game ala DDR (but worse, think that Happy Feet game(
Thor Ragnarok would be a crappy beat-em-up with clunky mechanics.
Civil War would probabky be a lame platformer where the climatic fight scene would be happening in the background with NPCs while you are playing the Winter Soldier dodging Spiderman's web shots in a 2D sidescroller.

I miss them too. The sheer quantity of them meant you could occasionally get a good game like Wolverine Origins, or at least a game with one or two standout mechanics like the flying in the Iron Man games, or the health bar in Superman Returns.

But at least they existed. As mediocre as the game was, it was cool to have a taste of being Superman with Returns, flying was fun at least. Even The Incredible Hulk game was at least enjoyable to leap around the city and demolish buildings.

Now there's just nothing. Sucks.

Remember how a lot of them were trash?

Except Spider-Man 2. That shit was killer.

For comic books they kinda learned their lesson and just started making games based directly on the comic instead of trying to do the movie version. Though Capcom and Disney started to forget that and turned MvC into MCUvC.

Imagine if Disney actually invested a fuck ton of money into panning out the MCU in video games and made games that were actually good.

The multi-game partnership with Square-Enix for Avengers games is most likely an attempt at this.

It seems like that's what they're trying to do now. Some chief of video games over at Marvel was talking about how they're going to step up their games and get AAA developers to work on them.
We got this Insomniac Spider-Man game and an Avengers game from Square Enix coming soon.
