Let's talk about older comics based games.

This is the best retro Spider Man game. It's a contender for best Spider Man game ever, right next to the open world Spider Man 2 based on the Sam Raimi movie.

Obligatory

It's only one player, it's repetitive, the music in the sega version most people consider inferior to the SNES port. It was lambasted by most critics on release.

But we love it.

Have any of you guys ever read Maximum Carnage? I'm not into comics but my uncle is a massive collector and would occasionally give us comics as gifts. This was one of them. It's really fucking awesome. Not awesome enough to get me into comics but I reread it many times.

Fuck off.

On every fucking board I go to, I have to see some nigger post this like it's the second coming of George Costanza.

Really, what is so goddamn funny about a bunch of retards on /tv/ not getting this dialogue?

You're a fucking tumour, you know that? Grade A cancer.

Only time this shit was ever even remotely relevant was when the movie came out, two goddamn years ago.

Unless you've been living under a rock since then, I don't understand how you can still laugh at this. Grow up, anon. You're a big guy.

One thing that's pretty cool is that superhero/comic based games in the 8-bit/16-bit era were often actually based around the comics, and not just the cartoon/movie. Even the movie based games took from the comics, too. Sunsoft Batman is loaded with comic batman villains who aren't as popular as the usually used villains, like KGBeast, Deadshot, KillerMoth, and even more obscure ones.

There is a strange bug in Return of the Joker which I discovered a few years ago on an emulator. Basically the big and slow missile attack which explodes into four diagonally shooting balls. The projectile is insanely slow but does a fair amount of damage but recharge time is like a full second. Can't remember the actual letter of the weapon.

Anyway, basically the bug is that if you stand at the right most side of the screen and just fire into the wall, Batman hand should bw off screen you reduce the recharge time to zero and you get a shot going basically from the bottom right corner to the upper right . This is almost entirely useless other than in the final boss fight where you can use it to take out the joker in like five seconds. Its also useful in an elevator sequence where enemies drop from the open elevator shaft. You basically just huddle in a corner and kill.everything as it spawns or before it lands.

I discovered this on an emulator so its entirely possible it was just some glitch which isn't present in the actual game.

I just apreciate how fucking close the game is to the comic.
I played the game as a kid and beat it somehow (I think we cheated to find out where the secret rooms were, or we actually got good enough to make it there.) Then I read the comic years later and was blown away how I remembered scenes from the game because they were picture for picture in the comic.

>>1621995
>Seperation Anxiety
I have no idea why, but I fucking hated that game. The shift from cartoon graphics to "3d" graphics made it look worse, the enemies were less inventive, and the cutscenes were absent/uninspired compared to 1.

One thing I like about Superman 64 is the art on the cartridge. It doesn't need to tell you the name of the game, because just looking you already know it's fuckin' Superman.

Of course, that gets shot in the foot once the game starts, but whatever.

The Punisher beat'em up was surprisingly awesome.

I need to play the PS2 game eventually.
