Konami's X-Men Coming to PSN/XBLA

[Nash]

... TMNT arcade games at least have lots of personality in their animation...

Maybe they had too much personality and Konami/Ubisoft decided to bland it up some with Turtles in Time: Re-Shelled!

[FirstBlood]

Yeah, that's the ticket.

[Destro777]

The only reason I said it is because Konami has shown a willingness to actually go back and get the rights to old games. Capcom has never done much of that, so bitch at the people wishing for miracles instead.

Chillax. Sarcasm is your friend. I have nothing but fond memories of the Simpsons arcade game and wasting $20+ bux trying to beat it on a family vaction way back when.

[YellerDog]

X-Men is awesome just because it's got so much concentrated 80s comic shit going on.

[cka]

I'd buy it

[Opaque]

Who said The Simpson's arcade game was cheap?

That was awesome, I'd never played past the cemetery level before. I'd seen other people on the outdoor level with the bears, and even the end seems familiar, but still.

Alright now, play friendly.

[YellerDog]

Simpsons is a pretty awesome game to play then get back to your table and there's hot wings waiting for ya.

[Tain]

Yeah, time has not been kind to any of these licensed beat-em-ups.

...except the Capcom ones.

Captain Commando is at least as good as DMC and Ninja Gaiden Black. True story.

[FirstBlood]

Yeah but Captain Commando isn't licensed.

Aliens vs Predator, Punisher, and D&D: SoM are. They're also a couple years after X-Men and Simpsons.

[YellerDog]

There's a bunch of not-obvious hangups relating to expired middleware license agreements (Q-Sound among them?) that keep some of the Capcom games under wraps; or at least that's the most convenient excuse they could muster.
