Under the deal Disney will now control and own 5,000 Marvel characters, including Iron Man and Spider-Man . If Marvel shareholders approve the deal, they will receive $30 per share and will also receive .745 Disney shares for each Marvel share they own. Both the Disney and Marvel board of directors have approved the deal, but it still has to go through an anti-trust review. I don't see there being any problem with the anti-trust review nor do I see the marvel shareholders turning up their noses to such a fantastic offer. Most likely, later this week, we should see final word on the resolution of this agreem

As a pinball game, Marvel Pinball is as solid as they come. The physics featured in this game are identical to pinball machines you would find at your local arcade. Plus, you get to enter and record your high scores, compare them up against the world, compare them against your friends, and even the vibration feedback makes you feel that much closer to the real thing. You also have all the standards that come with a pinball table, including bumpers, rails, stand-up targets, etc. I especially like the fact that the game has the courtesy to move the Xbox Live notifications to the middle of the screen instead of at the bottom, because, if you know anything about pinball, you know that covering any part of the bottom of the screen could result in the loss of a ball. You lose three balls, and you're out. Game o

For being a fantasy, demon-focused series centered around a coquettish witch wielding guns and shoes strapped with guns for heels, most people would never have imagined a franchise such as Bayonetta ever taking place during Christ

OK, so just a few minutes ago Twitter literally exploded with news of a major financial announcement: according to The Associated Press, The Walt Disney Co. will acquire Marvel Entertainment Inc., for $4 billion in cash and st

Con - We could find ourselves over-saturated with watered down superheroes, quickly written scripts and under produced adaptation that are Disney is just looking to make a quick buck with. They are, after all, trying to re-coup $4 billion dollars of investment. It is distinctly possible that quality could suffer. Hopefully that won't be the case, because whether Disney knows it or not, they are now under intense scrutiny from one of these largest, if not the largest, fan base in the wo

"In my opinion, the biggest afflictions affecting movie-licensed games is the amount of development time and a strict adherence to retelling the story of the film in the form of a game. The former is easy to understand -- less development time means less time to design, produce and polish the game, resulting in a poor or lesser-quality experien

Dent’s smug line reveals his belief that he can bend the world to his will . It’s a belief that shatters after the explosion that scars him. Overshadowed by his famous "You either die a hero…" quote, this moment quietly sets up Dent’s fall from idealist to vengeful arbiter of cha

As you can see there are a lot of different dimensions and incarnations of Spider-Man. I didn't even touch on some of the more bizarre ones yet! I think Shattered Dimensions was a great idea and performed well enough to merit a sequel. Any number of these would make a great addition to the game, even as an alternate costume or an achievement nod for some of the more bizarre ones.

Baman & Piderman is a fantastic web series by Mondo, and I can't think of a single incarnation of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 DLC|https://spiderman2mix.com/ that would be more incredible than if they managed to include this one. Pider-Man uses his web powers to lazily slop from destination to destination, and is best friends with Baman, a Pumpkin and a Tuba. If you haven't seen this web series, please do yourself a favor and do so now .

A major contributor to this problem in recent years is Marvel and their partnership with Sega to released video games for all of the Marvel Studios films to date. Every single one of them was ugly, dated and downright bad . For fans, the good news is that Sega seems to be out of the mix but we don't know yet if there will be a full-fledged retail release for The Avenge

If you ask comic book fans which Spider-Man universe was most criminally neglected in Shattered Dimensions , their answer is almost universally going to be the Marvel Zombies version. A zombie virus has infected the Marvel world, and while it is affecting everybody mutant and human alike, the mutants obviously have certain advantages over the rest of the people and become the dominant zombies.

2013's Batman: Arkham Origins is the black sheep in the Arkham series in many ways, including it being the only Arkham game developed by WB Games Montreal, being a prequel, and not featuring Kevin Conroy or Mark Ham

Some of Batman's best stories are set during the Christmas and winter seasons, such as Batman: The Long Halloween , Batman: White Knight , and Batman: The Animated Series ' Heart of Ice, and Origins is no except
