    We've heard a little about the upcoming 'Marvel Heroes,' the free-to-play online game from Gazillion Entertainment. I was invited to join GameSpot when the developers came in to show off what they have so far.

    The game is written by Brian Michael Bendis and the release date is still to be determined. Check out the video below and let us know what you think.

    Looks like it could be pretty fun and since it's free-to-play there really isn't any good reason to not give it a chance.

    You should have mentioned that David Brevik is also creating the game.

    The fact though that they aren't planning to put it on console is a bad business decision

    I dislike that this won't be on console, or otherwise ported to Mac OS. 
     
    Not sure if I'll ever get to play it.
     
    So want to check out how costumes work. 
    Mohawk Storm would make me so happy.

    @SupremeHyperion: No it's not. The PC market is in a stronger position than console market that the moment. With this generation of consoles soon(Next 2 years) getting replaced coding a game for those systems while trying to make it PC friendly and preparing for the next generation of consoles is cost prohibitive.

    @cmaprice: It is getting a Mac port soon after release

    Still not sold on this game. Superhero games should aim for as much immersion as possible. 20 wolverines running around kind of ruins that for me.

    This game seems to have the same problem I had with MUA 1 and 2, That i don't feel like i'm playing as my favorite iconic superhero, but the Superhero community in general. I like Spider-man, but this game won't have any moments tailored to him. There wont be any moments in the plot that revolve around Tony Stark's intelligence, Captain America's leadership, Or Wolverine's resistance.

    It seems like Gazillion is disregarding the individual heroes personalities in favor of a pure combat experience. If that's the case it would of been better if they had gone with the create-a-character route.

    the stop and start gameplay looks a little dated. You should be able to run and shoot etc.

    if you know of DCUO then you see that a console MMO works and can be done at a somewhat high level. and with the number of comic fans alone who play console games it's a guarantee to make money. I understand how PC gamers are special (in their minds) and want everything for themselves but to think it can't be done and that it won't bring in a large amount of money is silly

    @SupremeHyperion: DCUO is shit. They can't patch properly. They can't protect credit card information properly. The story is lost currently at a loss and the PC port was absolute watery crap.

    World of Warcraft disagree about bring large amounts of money.

    League of Legends also disagrees.

    Lord of the Rings Online is laughing pretty hard about "pc can't bring in a large amount of money"

    Console MMO can work. So long as it's not ported to PC. Consoles are the weaker system both in tech specs and a market.

    At first I was disappointed this wasn't coming to console. After seeing that, I'm not the slightest bit upset anymore. It looks pretty bad.

    Not sure what you are really ranting about here but great job..... Pretty sure I just said that if Marvel wanted to make more money and make happy a far larger fan base they would make it console able as well.

    @SupremeHyperion: Which is partly what killed DCUO and forced into F2P. Porting to Console while easier is not optimal. This game is currently too powerful to play on the X-box 360.

    Not enough ram by a huge margin.

    Only thing I wish is that it was like super hero squad online where if you join a quest with others you are limited to characters not already picked by others in your quest. It's kind of weird seeing the same characters onscreen.

    This looks pretty awesome exactly. Be awesome to be playing as Captain America, then run into an Iron Man, Spider-Man, Thor, and Ms. Marvel and shout "AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!"
     
    I would TOTALLY do that every time. xD
