Title: Marvel Nemesis 2?
Post by: jonchang on November 11, 2007, 10:32PM
Has anyone heard of rumors of this to be in the works? A sneak peek shows Spider-Man fighting Doom and Hulk appearing after Doom destroyed a building. Juggernaut and Captain America also appear in the trailer.

...but fighting games rarely get a PC version... It would be cool to have Soul Calibur IV on PC! lol

The first game was pretty good, but I didn't like how it wasn't released for the PC...imagine the mods we'd have created for it :P. One more thing I disliked was how story mode was only singleplayer, and that there were no co-op modes. Several of the "finisher" moves looked pretty cool. Hopefully its successor will be released for us computer gamers.

I think the division of EA working on that game got closed or something. At least that's what I heard in the gamefaqs board.

Yes, but you should be hoping they bring a good fighting game over to the PC.  Not that it matters.  PCs just aren't suited for fighting games unless they're emulated Neo-Geo games. 

Marvel Nemesis 1...it was absolutely terrible.  Seriously...the worst fighting game I've ever played.  And I've played lots of fighting games.  Including Naruto games.  And the Guilty Gear for the DS.  And Marvel Nemesis was the worst.

Marvel Nemesis 2 wasn't rumored.  It was actually in-development.  But yeah, the closing of EA Chicago has left it up in the air.  I doubt it'll be abandoned, since EA already paid for the Marvel license.  But really, if you want to play fighting games, you're gonna need to stop playing on your PC.

Marvel nemesis actually made playing as marvel heroes frustrating and Dull.  Sloppy Controls, HORRIBLE story mode where there is only 3 different types of minion bad-guys, and half of a Roster you really don't care about. 

The few pluses:  The finishing moves look excellent.  Though overpowered Spider-man can be a lot of fun.  Can't really think of much else....

If you really think about it, the story mode's actually better than most fighting games, just not pulled off correctly. In most fighting games you just progress from one character to the next with no major narrative (except that Heihachi/Bison/whoever's holding a tournament). I think that they had a good idea but they went about it wrong. It also got kind of fustrating when you suddenly got taken out by a truck from nowhere but would it be a 'bad' game if they just progressed straight from major fight to fight?

I think its also got pretty good multiplayer potential.

I'll agree that the co-op had some potential and the concept of the story mode was worthwile.  But in the end overall I found myself just very dissapointed.  Street clothes for Wolverine and Mags with no bonus costumes?  After beating the entire story mode ( the only way to unlock 3/4 of the roster)  I was never tempted to play it agian.  It's probably the only current Marvel Game I don't own (that and X3).  And I'm a guy who actually found Wolverine's revenge and Next dimension entertaining.

But on the positive side if they really put a great effort into ironing out these problems and refocusing story mode I wouldn't be opposded to giving it a second try.  When I played this I think I was really biased to EA as well for their monopoly of the American Football NFL license.

The game's pretty fun (playing through it now), but I'm not a big fan of the art style, plus the fact that Spidey swears.  Spiderman doesn't swear.  The controls could use a bit of tightening up, but for the most part it plays really well.

Right now I'm stuck on Venom's last mission.  You have to defeat 35 enemies within the time limit.  Most I've killed is 24, but I suck with Venom.  So I decided to finish up 'Torch and Iron Man's missions.

If I had to rate it, I'd only give it a 6/10.  Why?
-Controls needed tightening
-More costumes were needed per-character
-A dodgy camera
-Unevenness in graphics.  Sometimes they rock, sometimes they suck
-The roster, including imperfects, was way too small
-Lack of 4 player versus, which would have rocked

I could care less about coop, but 4 player versus would've been sweeeeeeet.

Post by: The Boy Sanga on November 13, 2007, 02:34PM
Spidey swears? What scene? I think some of the missions are pretty difficult on it - Torch's and Iron man's final missions are almost impossible - I think I almost went bald on torch's and Iron Man's i just skipped.

Also, the 'spiderman' imperfect (Heizmat) is also pretty tough.

The opening video is pretty good too though...
Title: Re: Marvel Nemesis 2?
Post by: iammingy on November 13, 2007, 02:38PM
I totally agree with Teancum. This type of game definitely needs 4-player versus. I have lots of funs with my friends playing 4-player versus in Urban Reign and some other wrestling games...
Title: Re: Marvel Nemesis 2?
Post by: jonchang on November 13, 2007, 04:49PM
Yeah, a 4-player Vs. or a multiplayer coop for story mode would be great.

Spidey says "You know what we call that?  We call that a web-slingin' a__ kickin" when you lose to him.

Ah, does he not use that in the comics? in the uk that aint swearing (to my knowledge) so i overlooked it.
Title: Re: Marvel Nemesis 2?
Post by: Lionsden99 on November 14, 2007, 12:31AM
Nope, In the US if a kid read that line out in front of his teacher he'd be booted to the principals office on the double.

Please excuse my ignorance but I'm curious, is wanker a swear in the UK?  I know it's a derogratory term but I never knew. 
Title: Re: Marvel Nemesis 2?
Post by: The Boy Sanga on November 14, 2007, 03:31AM
Erm, I'd consider it one - it'd probably grant you detention if said in a school and probably provoke a fight if you called someone it.
Title: Re: Marvel Nemesis 2?
Post by: jonchang on November 14, 2007, 04:00AM
What new characters would you guys be expecting or wishing to come out if it does?
Title: Re: Marvel Nemesis 2?
Post by: Teancum on November 14, 2007, 04:46AM
Hopefully no new imperfects.  They're just bad copies of existing characters.  It'd be nice to play as Reed Richards in a game like this.  Not that he's one of my favorite characters or anything, but he'd be really interesting to see in this genre.
Title: Re: Marvel Nemesis 2?
Post by: jonchang on November 14, 2007, 06:32AM
I'd like to see Strange or Toothy appear sometime soon. The Surfer would also make a nice addition. Perhaps a few more X-Men like Cyclops or Nightcrawler? I'd also like Doom and Cap to be off the PSP exclusive list.

I tend to love anything Marvel but this game and maybe two games I was let down may have been the story,I like a good story with my Marvel characters though I'm sure this was someones cup of tea.
Title: Re: Marvel Nemesis 2?
Post by: Teancum on November 14, 2007, 07:18AM
Yeah, Doom would be a lot of fun to have again.  I'd say Hulk, but he'd majorly unbalance things.  Of course we can't forget Gambit.  He's been in a lot of the fighting-type games, but he's only been represented well in XML1/XML2.

Oh, and this time instead of Marvel Imperfects 2, call it something else and base it more around the 90's cartoons.

And I agree with CVC when it comes down to it.  Imperfects was decent, but it's very forgettable.  I took it back last night and probably won't rent it again.  I had fun playing it, but it didn't seem like something I'd ever buy.

Carnage i reckon this sort of game would really show carnage's power and mass murderness ... and it would just be kool being him in a game like this
Title: Re: Marvel Nemesis 2?
Post by: jonchang on November 15, 2007, 12:59AM
Ooh! I know! How bout:

Ghost Rider!

His finisher: Grabs victim and says, "Look into my eyes." Then he feels remorse for the sins he comitted, and turns to stone, before crumbling at GR's feet. R1+O could be grabbing something with the chain and pulling it to him. R1+Square could be a hellfire attack.

Man, he'd be awesome to play as.

While this is true, you didn't buy a fighting game for the story.  You bought it for serious, competitive gameplay.

Ass isn't a swear...

But yeah...

Consoles>PC

That's not what he meant. All he said was that some effort was put into the story and the story is better than the ones in other fighting games. He did not say the story is more important than the gameplay.

I'm not saying he did.  It's just like, as with FPSs and puzzle games, the quality of the game's story is omittable in the fighting genre.
