Review: Marvel Pinball: PVSWiki

Overall, I feel that this game catered more towards pinball enthusiasts than Marvel fans. Don't be fooled true believers. The novelty of having Marvel characters wears off once you realize that this is in fact a pinball game. It is not only a pinball game, but a pretty challenging one to boot. If you're a pinball fan, by all means this one is for you. If you're not too big into pinball, then chances are you won't be too impressed with this one. This is by all means not a bad game. However, I can't say the same about it not being uninspi

Marvel Pinball is exactly what you would expect from reading the title alone; it's Marvel themed, Pinball fun. You get four different tables, and each table offers something from each of the superheroes it features. Wolverine, https://spiderman2mix.com/, Iron-Man and Blade are your four superheroes with this title, and they also bring along with them some friends. Sabretooth, Silver Samurai, Dr. Octopus, Green Goblin, Mandarin (Whiplash) and Deacon Frost are some of the handful of recognizable characters that you will find on each respective table. Each table is very colorful and quite beautiful, and I'm sure hardcore Marvel fans will enjoy pointing all the little nods to its universe's enormous amount of content. So, how do these tables play, and is it worth your cash to download this title? Read on to find

When Marvel over-excitedly put out the original release schedule last May on the heels of Iron Man’s box office success, they were clearly trying to rush these movies into production. And we all know that rush =

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

As shown in the previous issue and in previous iterations of Marvel Zombies , infected superhumans are extraordinarily durable, and even more intelligent than traditional zombies. Similarly to Alfred Molina's Doctor Octopus in Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 2 , Marvel Zombies: Red Band 's Doctor Octopus creates his small star with noble intentions, though "the power of the sun" could quickly get out of control, as it's capable of incinerating anything it comes in contact w

Just as soon as the Christmas Eve parade is about to begin, centaur-like angels attack the city, causing Bayonetta to stop her holiday shopping and the fallen angel Rodin, dressed as Santa Claus, to help her by gifting her brand-new g

Technically none of these characters is Spider-Man; at least not anymore. But during the Identity Crisis mini-series, Spider-Man took up each of these four suits as he was accused of murder with a bounty on his head. Wearing his Spidey suit was out, so he tried each of these out. Each one got discarded and eventually made it into the hands of four teenagers who were inspired by him. The series didn't do very well, but I kind of liked it.

While Iron Man is locking down its character actors, they still haven't got a cast lined up for Thor . The best we have so far are the rumors of Alexander Skarsgård possibly playing Thor , and Josh Harnett playing his mischievous brother Lo

We already covered the DC Animated panel at NYCC '11 – which featured DC Universe animated features coming to DVD/Blu-ray – and yesterday, we covered the Marvel Television panel hosted by Vice President of Marvel Television, Jeph L

Jon Favreau had commented on how he doesn’t know if they can do Iron Man 2 so quickly as he felt he’d need a full two years to make the sequel just as he did the first. At the same time, Thor hadn’t even begun pre-production and it was rumored they were still sorting through script drafts – It wasn’t until September that they had found a director in Kenneth Brana

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

Doctor Octopus' entire life is a cycle of ambition and inevitable failure. Otto Octavius’ inventions are objectively revolutionary, but they're usually undermined by his self-serving personality. Even when Doc Ock tries to reform or reinvent himself , his own hubris pulls him back into self-destruct

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.
