Trailer for the movie looks pretty promising,

early screenshots also good,

inevitable timetabling calamity will ruin game just to match movies' release date.

/sigh

Who knows...this might be the killer movie tie in game that the industry has been waiting for...then again its probably going to be a bag of wank.

not all movie tie ins are bad.

I guess the X-wing series could be considered tie ins andthe Chronicles of Riddick. I think its the ones released to coincide with the theatrical release that are the culprits.

Wasn't there a trailer of the game last year?? I seem to remember something with him flying around and avoiding missile launchers with a dev voice over.

That's so blatantly touched up. The preview footage did not look THAT good. And the images are from the video.

Look like they've be tweaked in post. Still could be a laugh though.

Reckon Marvel Zombies would be a great concept for a game.

They look a bit shonky to me. Click the original size button and look at them in full resolution.

SEGA lifts lid on movie tie-in

Shouldn't the title read "SEGA lifts lid on movie cash-in"? ^^

The Punisher, Incredible Hulk Ultimate Destruction, X Men Legends I and II, and Marvel Ultimate Alliance were all good games, so I have hope for this one yet.

These were games based on comics. They didn't have to be e.g. rushed because of the film opening because the characters have been around for years. The same is true for Star Wars/Star Trek Games (although there are probably more shitty games than good games set in their universes anyway).

The only good REAL movie tie-in I've ever heard about were The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher's Bay. The funny thing about this one was that the game was far superior to the movie itself. :-D
Many game reviewers said that publishers didn't have any excuses for releasing crappy movie tie-ins after the brilliant CoR game... Sadly nobody listened...

This character has never interested me. He's always been a Marvel minor, from every time he's appeared in something that I've played. I think there will be better examples of whatever genre this game is in, that don't rely on IP draw to sell them.
Also, shot 4 reminds me worryingly of a reskinned Army of Two screenshot, lol :p
