I didn’t ever think I would ever have to offer this up as a reminder in 2025, but such is the time we live in: Nazis and fascists are not good, and we shouldn’t be living in constant fear of them coming back. Controversial words, I know. As we live day-to-day in a never ending…
At the dawn of what’s now known the whole world over as the Marvel Cinematic Universe, video game publisher Sega and a cadre of developers navigated tight deadlines and short development cycles to build games starring superheroes like Iron Man, Hulk, Thor and Captain America.

NOTE: I played in 2D but turned the slider up periodically to check to see how the game looks and found no real difference at all. For games that try to launch across nearly every single available platform on the market, there’s a few options that a developer can take when bringing a game to…
