Konami's X-Men Arcade Game Coming to XBL & PSN

All good games there. I agree.

Well, it's not like Wolverine can fire off Sonic Booms from his claws, either.

Just one of the many things that makes this one the Greatest Arcade Game EVER!!

After this, Konami just needs to get around to the Simpsons game, and Capcom needs to get us the Punisher and Alien vs Predator beat em ups.

The Wal Mart that was down the street from my neighborhood had this in their foyer for the longest time. I would save my lunch money from school to get quarters to go play it as many times as I could.

OMG, this just made my week! I LOVED this game . . . I was in junior high when it came out, and I would save all my extra money to go to the arcade and play it for hours!!! I was always Storm, Dazzler or Nightcrawler. I'm soooooooo stoked!!!

Dear. ____ing. God.

Yes.

 

[Shropt]

No, I think he means this actual Spider-Man arcade game.

That's the one. That game was amazing and hard as hell. Loved how the screen scrolled. There was no game that could compare with the character sprite size at that time, plus it was 4-players, plus the zooming. It was truly amazing for it's time. And the voices were cool too.

this will be fun. I played the bootleg rip on the computer and would always choose Dazzler.

coming out in December.

coming out in December.

Where did you find that out?

 

[cokebabies]

That Spiderman game sucked. And I hate to say that, because Hawkeye is in it.

You mean H-Eye

I remember liking the Spider-Man game, but that is probably because I was young and would have thought any Spider-Man game was good. Although even I realized Maximum Carnage sucked.

And I was all about Colossus, his special move was diabolical.

 

[krec9]

they need to bring maximum carnage to xbox live and psn

Where did you find that out?

IGN is reporting that Konami is aiming for December, but no official release date is announced.

 

[Karma]

released 15th December on xbla

 

[Darth_Fatso]

What about PSN?

 

[Karma]

dunno i presume same time but got news off an xbox site

 

[Kabukiman]

I guess Konami issued a press release about the XBL date, but made no mention of PSN.

Hopefully, it will be the same day, or sometime soon...

 

[FQRizzo]

XBL and PSN update on different days, so probably within the same week or so.

 

[Ktjn]

Does he even have that in the comics?

Does Wolverine shoot out projectiles from his claws?

Did Konami already release the TMNT arcade series?

 

[SwedishHeat]

Feckin another XBLA timed-exclusive. PSN is supposed to get it in February. I think Kotaku wrote up an article a few months ago, speaking about how console exclusives were going the way of the dodo. . . .obviously they didn't know what they were talking about.

Turtles in Time Re-Shelled, I believe it's called. Yeah it's out. I think the first TMNT arcade game is still on XBLA. Honestly, I played it once and cruised through it. I even played it on my arcade stick and it just wasn't the same.
