"I am Magneto, Master of Magnet! X-Men, welcome to DIE!"

"I am Magneto, Master of Magnet! X-Men, welcome to DIE!"

So awesome. Could they have at least TRIED to localize the dialogue?

Hell yeah that's going to fucking rule!!

Awesome news on the X-men arcade. Wonder if the new game is going to be that style or go back to X-men Legends style.

 

[daileyxplanet]

I hope Legends.

Also, I'm super glad they're just retooling the original rather than what they did with Turtles In Time Re-Shelled.

Are they retooling it? Marvel.com says they're just re-releasing it.

I actually want them to keep the pants dialogue in it. It would be like taking all the crap voice overs from Captain America And The Avengers.

 

[Black Lushus]

I CAN'T MOVE!

YOU WILL BE THE ONES ESCAPING!

AMERICA STILL NEEDS YOUR HELP!

 

[luke-o]

YOU WILL BE THE ONES ESCAPING!

I use this in everyday life when possible.

 

[Black Lushus]

When my wife wants me to get up off my lazy ass to do something I always shout I CAN'T MOVE!

I remember playing this at a Happy Joe's Pizzeria and there was a boss who yelled "Nobody hurts _______" and we'd special move him and he'd beller "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" over and over. Oh we loved it.

Then my friends sister took away our quarters cause the Pizza came and we never beat it.

"Nothing moves the Blob."

I loved beating him up.

X-Men (Arcade Game) - Welcome to Die
X-men (Arcade Game) - Nothing Moves the Blob!
X-men (Arcade Game) - Magneto: Master of Magnet!

I like how the game is based on this:

Pryde of the X-Men Theme Song (1989)

 

[Black Lushus]

Man, look at how fantastic the animation is in that opening sequence! Too bad Wolverine was Australian.

 

[Black Lushus]

Captain American and the Avengers Sound Clips

"YOU STUPID MEN!" How could I forget that one?

By retooling I meant simply making it console-friendly, difficulty settings, etc.

 

[vivisectvi]

Probably cleaning up the sprites too.

 

[daileyxplanet]

Nice big HD sprites.

 

[luke-o]

Captain American and the Avengers Sound Clips

"YOU STUPID MEN!" How could I forget that one?

"DON'T DISTURB US!"

 

[Haws Bah Gawd]

Speaking of the Avengers beat-em-up, what was up with the bubble-faced Juggernaught in that game?

Anyone ever play the Avangers fighting game, Galactic Storm? I remember being bummed that none of my local arcades ever got it.

 

[Black Lushus]

We had it here, but I never played it. It felt so inferior graphically that I never gave it a shot.

Definitely awesome. I've been waiting for them to do this for a while now.

I remember having that cartoon on VHS! The animation was way better than the later cartoon series on FOX that everyone remembers.

This is what is on Wikipedia about the game so far:

In X-Men: Destiny, players will be put in the role of a new mutant who joins the X-Men; they will have to make choices to decide the ultimate destiny of their character.[4][5] According to early sources, X-Men: Destiny is placing an emphasis on "choice" as its main focus, as opposed to a more traditional linear type of gameplay. According to the official press release, "the all-new original video game casts players as new mutant recruits in a rich, branching storyline that features a deep element of choice and gives players ultimate control of their destiny".[6]

So, kind of like X-men meets Fable? Thoughts?

 

[daileyxplanet]

Sounds like the best route in this day and age of Fables, Fallouts, and Mass Effects.

Apparently this is out next week on PSN & XBLN.

The game has a good sense of humour with it's Trophy / Achievement names.

 

[Baby Shoes]

Downloaded X-men Arcade today and loved it. Brought back a lot of good memories. Got 75/200 achievements in the playthrough. After I beat the last level and it has you start again, I had to go do something else, so I guess I didn't register to the leaderboard. Oh well. Gonna have to look for a live game where I can do the 6 people achievement.
