The Deadpool Game
Note: I first found out about this cover art through one of the blogs I am following: Like A Butterfly(A damn great blog about the femme fatale-european-asian-mutant-kunoichi-XForce-HottAss).
With that said, I have had my eyes on this game for a while now as I have stated in my last year's Game of The Year Awards(2012 gaming sessions). While I have no qualms with Deadpool and how much he is a cash cow for Marvel, I am also not the biggest fan of him. Again, I don't think he is Marvel's most abhorrent character, he is actually quite hilarious in some of the graphic novels I have of him, that and he does hang out with some high caliber Marvel characters(Psylocke, Wolverine, X-Men, X-Force, Avengers, etc.), it's just that he never really DID anything that is awe inspiring! He always gets his ass handed to him, more or less, but hey, again! Nothing to gripe over. Now talking about the game itself!
The game looks visceral which should concur with how Deadpool would be in a game! Marvel needs a little bit more mature ambiance game since their last one was Wolverine Origins(an okay game). From the looks of things there are a wide array of weapons the 'Merc with a Mouth' can obtain and use frivolously; from melee to firepower, it doesn't look like Wade Wilson will be lacking weaponry at all. Fun factor is there just from watching videos and looking at stills. Story, it could go either way. Again, Deadpool is all about his humor and his 'knowledge' that he is a Comic Book(or for this case, a video game character), throw that in with a myriad of Marvel characters like Psylocke, Wolverine, Cable, Domino just to name the ones that are on the cover art box!
The antagonist is Mr. Sinister apparently! Again, this is where my ambivalence in the game's story comes in since Sinister is usually accompanied(too often) with Cyclops and Jean Grey. What I'm trying to get at is that I hope this game's story DOES revolve around Wade Wilson and not him just being a narrator and the eviscerating mascot. Anyways, that's my venting session about this game. Due to come out in June 25th of this year! So yes, Still elated that this game is in my radar and that I will be getting it as soon as it comes out!
