The characters in the "game" aren't the guys in the comic. Ok for those who like a superficial bash-em-up, but that game doesn't look right at all. I understand that "power/rage" meters help dish out extra damage, but it looks so damned silly. That backward spread-eagled reach followed by that oomph. Hehe. Help!

/slaps forehead.


Yeah, that was pretty stupid. And look at this:

Whatever happened to the complete absence of ridiculous fighting (in the comic)...

At first I wasn't too impressed with this game, but I'm really starting to like what I see.

Could someone please go into detail about the X-play footage that was shown?

Kotaku is a video game news site with some of the highest credibility around. If they say March 6th, it's March 6th. As for their hands-on reports, they're really not known for those, and their bloggers all have very different tastes.

And what Dark Knight? What are you talking about? When did Kotaku go hands-on with that?

hopefully in some episode they will let you play as either The Comedian or Dr Manhattan in Vietnam,
did they say that this mostly about Nite Owl and Rorshach?

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that you will be able to play as almost every character. My main reasoning is that when they asked one of the makers of the game what voice talent was in the game, he said he couldn't say.

God I hope those release dates are valid for Europe too. I just can't wait anymore. I have to wait until March 13 to see the movie but hopefully I'll only have to wait until March 4 to play the game.


Btw, have they revealed the price yet? I've only heard them say that it'll be more than ten bucks. Will a normal microsoft point card suffice?

They haven't announced the price yet, no. But Microsoft Points will be definitely work, provided you're using not trying to use them on a PS3 . . .

Haha yeah I understand that, but what I meant was, will a normal Microsoft Point Card that you buy in the stores have enough points on it to buy the game? It should right?

Well, Jackie Earle Haley and Patrick Wilson were confirmed since the beginning, weren't they?
