Murr Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 (edited) With New York Comic-Con officially upon us, the announcements have begun. Among the first is that Activision is teaming with Silicon Knights for a brand new X-Men game called X-Men: Destiny. No platforms and no genres were announced in Activision's statement about the title. "The all-new original video game casts players as new mutant recruits in a rich, branching storyline that features a deep element of choice and gives players ultimate control of their destiny," the vague release said. The trailer can be found here - http://uk.ign.com/videos/2010/10/07/x-men-destiny-reveal-trailer Source - IGN.com Edited October 8, 2010 by Murr
flameboy Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Silicon knights can they be trusted?! Posted from my BlackBerry using BerryBlab
Happenstance Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Ive actually been in the mood for a new X-Men game lately so I do hope this turns out well.
Dan_Dare Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Wait, Silicone Knights? Huh. Now, either I get excited because they made Eternal Darkness (underrated, absolutely awesome game) or I shit one because Too Human was proper bumflakes. I'll get back to you when I make up my mind.

Eternal Darkness was an incredible game. all the talk over a sequel to it, I hope it doesn't happen as it'll not live up to the first. and agree with Too Human, so much was meant to come from that game, all the development time, but it was trash. Hoping that it's along the lines of Eternal Darkess / Metal Gear Twin Snakes route... would be nice.
Retro_Link Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Silicon Knights... so we can expect this in 2015 on the PS4 etc...
ReZourceman Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 No genres or platfroms announced scares and irritates me. How can I possibly get excited? Posted from Nokia using LolhaxNokiaForumTool
Cube Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 No genres or platfroms announced scares and irritates me. How can I possibly get excited?[/i] Well, Too Human was due out on the N64 but came out on the Xbox 360. So it's probably best if they don't say a console this time.
ReZourceman Posted December 10, 2010 Posted December 10, 2010 Ooooh, maybe you get to pick your powers or something.
Dan_Dare Posted December 10, 2010 Posted December 10, 2010 Fucking hell. It's going to be one of those games where your main character is a fucking shoe in cypher and all the X-men you actually want to play as are NPC's, isn't it? oh, cock.

Dan_Dare Posted December 10, 2010 Posted December 10, 2010 well dick to that! I want to play as fucking Nightcrawler, not some generic blank slate.
S.C.G Posted December 10, 2010 Posted December 10, 2010 Could be good, might be balls... Only time will tell.
Murr Posted January 2, 2011 Author Posted January 2, 2011 -The tone of the game is said to be "dark, mature, & intense" striving towards an adult feel, but a Mature rating is said to not be likely. -San Francisco is divided into human & non-human sectors as Professor X is dead. -The game starts with a peace rally being staged to pay tribute to Professor X, which is when you are prompted to pick one of three characters in the crowd. -OXM's Activision guide chose Adrian Luca as their character. -The game presents the player with frozen in time "decision moments", indicating its time for players to make a big choice. The first big choice in the game allows you to pick your power archetype ranging from being able to manipulate matter and your body mass, energy projection, or a third one that was kept a secret. -The game allows you to decide who is friend or foe in the X-Men universe. -Cyclops, Quicksilver, Surge, Magneto, Nightcrawler, Wolverine, & Gambit are confirmed to make an appearance in the title, with plenty more to be announced. -X-Genes play a rather large role in the game, ranging from boss fights to deciding to give it to an X-Men, or someone else to form another alliance. -Linking together a good amount of attacks will fill up your "Mutant power" meter, allowing you to pull off even stronger special attacks. -One of the special attacks described as a part of the "Mutant power" meter was "Force Pillars". The attack was said to produce crowd clearing beams that rise from the ground. source - comicbookmovie.com

Retro_Link Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 lolz at main generic tattoo character and plastic Gambit!
Cube Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 And if you ever saw it you would even say it glows. Those screenshots look awful.
Murr Posted January 18, 2011 Author Posted January 18, 2011 Oh dear. Oh dear oh dear. Was that at the pictures or Cube's reply?
Dan_Dare Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 The pictures. Fucks sake, Marvel. Get someone good on this licence (not Greg Land- comic burn amarite!?) and produce the game everyone wants- a co-op action adventure with retina scorching production values and shit. Urgh.
ReZourceman Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 I'll reserve judgement for now. WOW THAT LOOKS GENERIC.
Retro_Link Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 I'll reserve judgement for now. 'Judgement' was added to you basket!
Retro_Link Posted June 6, 2011 Posted June 6, 2011 Doesn't looked to have improved at all... crap as ever!
