Deadpool
 

It's a classic brawler/slash/beatumup and the crassness is funny. I can do without all the cursing but the katanas and sai weapon combos looks like they took after Leo and Raph fighting styles. Not to mention the plethora of Ninja Turtles injokes in the sewers levels including the sai logo on a pizza box. I had fun with it for a week and got 71 percent of the trophies but was not hardcore enough to get the 100 percent buy it was a fun distraction for a while.

Yeah... I'll wait until I can find this game for 20 dollars.

That's still a bit much.

Try 5 dollars at a Best Buy used bin.


I'd give it a week or two.

Already saw it for $39.99 at Best Buy yesterday. I'm assuming there aren't a ton of people diving head first into a mediocre, unfunny character action game at $60. It'll be bargain bin by the end of the year.

That was price on the day of release, I believe.

This is serving as a decent palette cleanser between giant stacks of fighting games. I don't play the genre often so a lot is new to me. Some of the humor is forced pretty hard (the entire "Play with Deadpool's junk" optional mission - not the interactions themselves, which are amusing individually, but 14 in a row is too much), but I'm liking most of it on the whole. Plus I got two trophies for getting out of a chair. That's two more than I had the intention of trying for!

I got it on sale at Toys R Us for a preorder for 25. I played for five minutes.

BUYERS REMORSE.

EDIT: To be clear, that was $25 without trading anything. Should have been a dead give away.

Was pretty suprised he got his own game, i know he's became somewhat of a cult favorite but hes no where close to an Avenger or X-Man,Spider man etc..

I thought about picking this up.. But I wasn't impressed by the graphics and it didn't look that great to be honest.. I'll pick it up eventually.. Just have to wait for the price to come way down.

Well, he was an X-force member, but he was never an official X-Men member. So I guess that counts.

He's become VERY popular recently for some reason.. He has appeared in so many cross overs its ridiculous. Daniel Way is probably part of the reason he has gotten so popular. He has kind of become the new Wolverine in many ways. I was a little surprised but.. with the movie in the works, I think they were still trying to keep him relevant til they work out the kinks.

Are they STILL trying to make a Deadpool movie?

The time for that was MAYBE 2010 when it was sort of cute and the internet was in love with it and chocolate rain but the character has been so overexposed and played out at this point.

Yep.. Ryan Reynolds talked about it recently.. Thats how these comic book movies work.. Some of them anyway.. They get a big push and then they go into hiatus for awhile. Wolverine is WAY overexposed and he still gets a lot of play so don't be so surprised.

Yeah but Wolverine is a character that can be written well and can tell great stories.

Deadpool....even at his best is a slightly better version of an internet meme. Kinda surprising they're still trying to get it done since his popularity and public awareness has dropped from it's peak in 2009-10.

Eh.. Have you only read the Daniel Way stuff? I'm only asking because I feel like he did that with the character.. Deadpool was my absolute favorite character until he took over and made him uber popular.. The best stuff, in my opinion was the early runs by Jeph Loeb and Gail Simone.. In that series he had a real story to tell.. I hope they use those stories for the basis of the film. Currently they are supposed to get more into the dark side of Deadpool.. There is a lot there to explore.

Downloading this game on psn. Looks very fun. :D

I saw the game at full retail price here in Norway 500 NOK or $82.4.

Think I'll wait 'til it ends up like Duke Nukem Forever, down in the bargain bin of 50 NOK

Yep, waiting 'til it's $5 or less on Steam... Too many other games on the go as it is. And while I like the character, I have to agree with Stryker, they didn't jump on the bandwagon when they should have.
