the X-Men not even existing and he's in a relationship with jean

Story wise I am genuinely not going to care. It just comes down to if the gameplay is fun enough to carry 20 hours. With leaks showing playable sections as Jean. Very odd character designs. X Men not existing removes many potential cameos. I need a boss fight against Magneto at least. I guess I have a bit of Wolverine Fatigue. Also wouldnt be surprised if Marvel Disney was like "let us introduce the x men you can focus on the characters they saw in old movies".

I don't mind Insomniac doing their own spins on the Marvel storylines/characters is interesting to me. It's not like there's a shortage of Scott/Jean stuff out there.

The X Men existing would give them a lot more story to work with and potential locations even if you still solely played as Wolverine. The X Men not existing really limits the variety they can give over a 20 hour story. I could care less about romance with cyclops or Jean. I am just talking about what we generally do in the game

"one of the worst sequels of all time"

worst sequels of all time is a bit much but it was disappointing for sure

Yep and gotcha... Yeah I want some honest opinions about it for sure.

Well they said last time aka back in June 2026 that it would only be about Phantom Blade 0 and well there's a rumored State of Play happening in early-mid September 2026 that might maybe show us something before Wolverine is out

Kind of shocked no Wolverine demo to be honest but i guess insomniac never huge on demos so I get it

Ain't no way Spiderman 2 that bad man the hyperbole on here go crazy lol

Yeah they don't really do demos so we'll have to wait until the game is out which is fine tbh

Video game combat on melee games is in such an odd spot where it feels like they have stagnated to eventually or often very quickly get tedious and repetitive. Both in regular enemies, higher tier enemies and boss fights for me. Yes in some ways its always been this way but once everyone just started lightly iterating on what worked in Arkham and Creed rarely adding that much new themselves that fully changed things it feels like people got stuck.

Phantom Blade Zero, Onimusha and this really can possibly restore the feeling.

Yeah these 3 games you mentioned do something kind of different at least and do give us some hope for sure.

But lol well for me so is it only Wolverine and GTA VI that I am getting this year... But 2027 should at least have a couple of must haves for me hopefully.

Definitely pre ordering the Pro plates

Phantom Blade Zero
Control Resonant ( Maybe)
Gears E Day ( Gamepass)
GTA if I borrow friends PS5

Early next year
Fable ( gamepass)
Stranger than Heaven

all final fantasy remakes, all resident evils , octopath series, yakuza series, hitman series

They honestly should have delayed some of the games they are stuffing to hit before GTA into next year

Lol don't remind me of my backlog fam... But yeah there's a lot of stuff to play and look forward to for sure.

And well yeah I hope all of the games I want do come at the right time tbh as I don't want to have them come close to each other for sure whether it's because of Grand Theft Auto VI or not.

1000%. You already know what you’re getting with a Sony exclusive. It’s going to be a solid first entry and then the sequel will have gameplay QOL with a worse story. This happens every time

I’m being hyperbolic but you know I gotta find a reason to s*** on SM2 whenever I can

See above post

Yea I know

floating asset dream sections! Thank you insomniac. Classic otw!

Over/Under 3 exposition dump walking sections

I’m saying over

Getting to play as Jean but all you do is walk around a room and interact with stuff
