What's the verdict on Marvel Nemesis?

Its basically a one button fighting game that isn't 100% a fighting game and tries to have a story mode but the story mode is a fighting game and it looks kind of cool but then you stop and think and remember you are only fighting with one button and you try to bring it back to the store and all you can do is trade it in for Ultimate Spiderman.

....if you want the brief judgement, its a bad game.

It not a very good game at all. The overall look is interesting, but there is no real gameplay. I had more fun with Tao Feng...yup I'm serious. Too many other great games out right now that really deserve your cash. This will be in the bargin bin by Halloween, mark my words.

If you want a good super heroes game you've got the choice of two:

Hulk: Ultimate Destruction and Ultimate Spiderman
 
I bough it for GC... I must be in the minority, as I actually enjoy it. Not a great game by any stretch, but a good distraction.

My opinion is a bit biased considering how much of a Marvel fan I am. I'll probably get all 3 Marvel releases from last week.

I guess how much you enjoy it is in direct correlation to how much a fan of Marvel you are.

Quite the opposite in fact. If you are a fan of Marvel you want to puke your guts out becuase not only have they made the Marvel characters suck balls, but also because they intermixed them with new garbage EA chars liek Johnn Ohm,, oh could he use electricity possibly,,

This game almost made me grab a q-tip and gouge my eyes out of their sockets and then use alcohol and lemon juice to get the last bits of goo so i coudl never see a game like this again.

You want good Marvel play Xmen legends 2, its not the best game but it owns the hell out of Marvel Emesis (look up the word and youll understand the joke)
 
The real loser here is all of the kiddies who will get this game based soley on the license. nothing new, Im sure we've all been burned, but EA knows how to make a good game damnit, and there is no excuse for this kind of shit in this day and age.

Had they just disposed of the whole "EA CREATED CHARACTER" idea and just gone with trying to duplicate something like Marvel Super Heroes in glorious 3D with dynamic bgs, I would have been happy.
 
I was hoping for a basic Power Stone revival in some ways, but everything I've read as far as impressions has been bad, even from the most dedicated comics fans.

<tears>
 
now we just have to hope that it bombs... and that Marvel gives back license to Capcom.

btw... for how long is the EA-Marvel deal?

Yeah, give it back to Marvel! SO THEY CAN DO NOTHING WITH IT. But hey, Capcom is japanese and, you know, they made 1 good serie with the Marvel license, which was adapted from one of their fighting game engine to begin with, but they'll be better than EA.

As I said in the other thread, BAD DESIGN DECISION has nothing to do with the game being an EA game. Shut. Up.

Yeah, and how is it different than the activision one?

Also, which publisher has had the greatest financial success with the license? Guessing Activision.

Activision OF COURSE. But that's with the X-Men license.
