Back in early 2012 when I started Comic Gamers Assemble, one of the games I was reporting on was the progenitor free-to-play Marvel title, Marvel: Avengers Alliance that initially launched on Facebook but has since been ported to mobile devices and even received a sequel this year, Marvel: Avengers Alliance 2. Avengers Alliance was the first in the string of free-to-play…
If there’s one game that can sell me on the very expensive, probably sickness inducing concept of virtual reality, it’s Batman: Arkham VR. With each video and news story about the forthcoming title, it really makes me sad that I don’t have the coin nor the real space to experience it first hand myself. A new video…
Upon booting up my PS4 today, I received a notification about a new update for my digitally purchased Marvel Ultimate Alliance, and pondered if it was the free DLC that was promised after the poor launch of the game and its sequel earlier this summer. From Bill Rosemann, the creative director at Marvel Games, Twitter feed comes…
Two characters who played a major role in the recently released Suicide Squad have just been revealed as new fighters in the forthcoming sequel fighting game, Injustice 2. The first is a returning fighter from the first game, Injustice: Gods Among Us, Harley Quinn, who gets most of the attention in the trailer with a plethora of new looks with everything…
Say what you will about Lego Dimensions, but for a game that at launch cost over $100 and was built around buying hundreds of dollars worth of more toys and vehicles, it still felt like it was a game that had the consumers best interest in mind: All trophies/achievements and the campaign could be completed with everything…
When you look at a character like the Hulk, you can see both a character that is pretty easy to adapt into a fun video game, yet at the same time extremely difficult. In some form or another, people have been making Hulk-esque experiences since the days of early arcade titles like Midway’s Rampage: Game’s granting players…
There’s still no word on when the Batman: Return to Arkham collection is coming to current gen systems, but one game that’s still on track for its October release is the upcoming Batman: Arkham VR, exclusively for PlayStation VR. Hands on impressions have been on various websites, podcasts and blogs for months now, but a new trailer just…
To celebrate last week’s release of Suicide Squad, the team at Screen Junkies and Smosh Games behind the Honest Trailers series are revisiting the Arkham franchise once again. After their look at the first game, Batman: Arkham Asylum, and the series finale, Batman: Arkham Knight, it’s finally time to look at the middle chapter: Batman: Arkham City. What’s funny is that they say they’ll…
When the surprise announcement came last year at the Game Awards that Telltale was teaming up with DC to do a series starring Batman, I didn’t know exactly how to feel. Of course I’m always excited to see any comic book character come to life in a video game, but after the excellent Arkham trilogy having come…
Last week’s revival of both Marvel Ultimate Alliance and it’s sequel were not met with the love that Marvel Games probably had hoped for. Coming in at $60 for the bundle and $40 a piece, the first game was missing DLC not found on the Gold Edition rerelease that was published on the Xbox 360, the Xbox…
