Fight Night team to make new super hero fighting title

EA's Chicago team will be producing a new game based on Marvel's comicbook characters.

The new super hero fighting game will be developed for PS3 and Xbox 360 and released next year.

EA Chicago is best known for its Fight Night games and recent title Def Jam: Icon - the team specifically prides itself on work driven by cutting-edge technology.

"We looked at past comic-based games to find out what was missing and what was needed to successfully translate the intensity, excitement and fiction from comics into fighting games," said Kudo Tsunoda, general manager and VP at EA Chicago.

Scaleform - GFX

"We're challenging ourselves to make a game that delivers on the Super Hero promises of past top-tier fighting games."

THEY SHOULD CHANGE THEIR IDEAS ON MAKING THE GAME CELL SHADED LIKE XMEN RISE OF THE APOCALYPSE AND MAKING IT LOOK LIKE A KIDS GAME AND INSTEAD FOCUS ON USING THETRUE POWER OF THE 360 OR JUST FORGET MAKING IT ON 360 AND CONCENTRATE ON PLAYASTATION 2 EVEN IF I DO BUY IT IT WILL BE PRETTY LATE AND THAT IS BECAUSE OF ALL THE COMPETITION WE HAVE GOT SOUL CALIBUR 4, NINJA GAIDEN 2, RESIDENT EVIL 5, ARMY OF TWO, DEVIL MAY CRY 4 LOADS OF TOP NOTCH GAMES WITH EXCELLENT GRAPHICS SO WHAT MAKES THEIR GAME SO GOOD I MEAN THE LAST DEF JAM GAME WAS NOT SO GOOD AND THEY ARE GOING TO BASE IT ON THAT BASE IT ON DEF JAM 3 FIGHT FOR NEW YORK THAT WAS ONE OF THE BESTIST GAMES I PLAYED IN MY LIFE IT IS A CLASSIC LIKE STREET FIGHTER AND MORTAL KOMBAT AND WILL BE REMEBERED FOR EVER WHAT I AM SAYING IS TRY TO MAKE A GOOD GAME NOT MONEY TAKE AS LONG AS IT SHOULD BUT QUALITY OVER QUANTITY THAT NEW SPIDERMAN GAME WAS A LETDOWN A BIG LETDOWN MAKE SURE YOU HAVE UPGRADES A GOOD STORYLINE, EXCELLENT CHARACTERS WHY NOT PUT IN ALL THE FANTADTIC 4 AND PUT SOME WEAPONS IN MAYBE SOME GUNS SWORDS IT MAKE THINGS INTERESTING AND MAKE SURE THAT DAMAGE IS REALISTIC I MEAN WHAT CHANCE HAS DAREDVIL AGAINST THE THING IF HE HAD A BAZOOKA HE COULD BLOW HIM INTO THE WALL BUT IT WOULD BE HARD CONSIDERING THE OBJECTS TO HIDE BEHIND LIMITED AMMO AND SUCH AS AND MAKE SURE THAT OBJECTS DO MYSTERIOUSLY REAPPER. I HAVE SAID ALL I CAN THINK OF ON TOP OF MY HEAD I HAVE LOADS OF OTHER BRILLIANT IDEAS

“CHARACTERS”
Posted by: DOCK OCK - Nov 29, 3:26pm

Hey comic book guy get straight to the point dont write your whole life stry do what normal people do. The characters in the game should over power each other such as venom vs electra in nemises he can kill her in less than a minute give the characters all their powers electra is close enough to being a master in kimaguri she can stop time for a little while see ahead of the future 30 seconds can kick *** she has fighting skills in hand to hand she should beat venom now matter how string he is she can deflect counter dodge maybe you should give her some automatic countering that would be better but if you are going for acdanced play and not baby stuff go full on counteing and there should not be an energy bar on limiting your powers it is okay for life but every characters life should be different like the thing will not take as much damge as magneto who is old and weak if hit by a giant piece of wood by the thing he should die and electra should be able to take more damage than him. Anyway talking about character you should have a bigger roaster not ****py looking made up mosters and especially ones that have other superheroes abiliutes like hazmat who has spidermans powers stick some well know characters in as well as unknown why not stick in the hulk make it possibel and the punisher it would be quite fun to beat him sensless while he is shooting the hulk make it possible and have some bad guys like DR DOOM he would kick *** with his power drain the street light giove him more energy but put him in a desert and he is useless he draws his powers from electric objects so it would be cool answer our nerdy dreams pretty please

i agree with most of the above comments, im looking for realistic graphics, a larger roster, and realalistic power usage, but another thing id like is larger maps to accomidate the flying characters or web slingers also this would give range characters to more room to do their thing. Then one would say, if u make the maps too big u wont find the enemy. So i say make it a 4 plyer game w/ two to a team or 3 vs 1 with three weaker characters (i.e. Electra or Cyclops) vs characters like the Hulk, Thor, or Silver Surfer (who i would love to see in the game).Also with the use of Xbox LIVE maybe even more players.

seriously, elektras not THAT good but really wolverine would have to regenerate but it would be hard to make this game realistic cuz some characters could dominate others cuz Wolverine cant really die unless hes turned to ash n hulk would crush pretty much anyone and punisher would be defensless against collossus storm could really just electrocute anyone blade would be cool to be and lron man and surfer and ghost rider do ur best makin it n make storm look hot!
