Between starting to watch a Batman documentary (Legends of the Dark Knight) and randomly stumbling onto some Silver Age Batman covers (one of which had Penguin rather badly disguised as Batman and, while trying to get a look at a cleaner version of the cover, I saw a lot of vintage Penguin covers and was reminded of his old character style -- been forever since I've seen it), so at some point I'll go on a Silver Age Batman kick.

Oh, and I finally saw the character roster for Primal Rage II. Small wonder it never got off the ground. Not only did they move away from using monsters/dinos, the human character designs were nothing special. That said, if I'm ever near Brookfield, Illinois, I'll have to stop into that arcade.

It's not as bad as some people make it out to be, but it's not really all that robust. If you're in the mood for a casual button-mashing hack-and-slash sort of game with a very loose grip on X-Men continuity it can be fun enough.

I liked it enough to 100% it, so it can't be THAT terrible.

I don't expect artistry with most licensed games. However, XML1 was great, Capcom's X-Men & Marvel fighting games were great, I loved Wolverine's Revenge, etc. Then there were a lot of serviceable games as well. Can't say I've heard much about Destiny one way or another, but I'm sure it's not too far off from a lot of other X-Men titles in that genre.

That said, it's not super-high on the queue and I picked up Spider-Man: Edge of Time iirc that same Black Friday which, given that it has 2099, would take priority. And even though I have a monstrously large queue, whenever I do start using my ps3 again I kinda suspect I'll just do a SR2 replay first. Watched the cutscenes again the other month which, instead of satiating my SR2 craving, just made me want to replay it even more. (Then there's some chance I'll replay SR3 and SR4 after, although I've never liked SR3 as much.)
