How will Disney's purchase of Marvel affect gaming?

[manaman]

Hey all,

It's interesting to me that Disney just bought Marvel. Obviously it will impact Marvel movies--how can it not?--but what about games?

Traditionally Disney games have been some of the best of licensed games with companies like Capcom and Virgin supporting them. Also, Marvel is no slouch in terms of the variety of companies supporting them and the quality of some of their games. Maybe this purchase is a good thing or maybe a bad thing for gaming. I can't really tell. Assuming one or the other will begin to use its resources for pumping out both companies' licensed games, what way would you hope it goes? I think I'll go with Marvel's resources helping Disney.

Peace,

manaman

well there goes any blood in marvel games.

Marvel VS Capcom series were great fighter's.

I guess best we can hop for now is marvel vs micky mouse. but it would be fun to see wolverine or sabertooth rip apart micky and donald or goofy and pluto. maybe have hulk smash a few disney dorks.

Better yet spiderman can hook up with the disney princesses in the next movie.

so in conclusion i fill it is a bad ideal in general, but i don't like disney and that affect my opinion.

ARGH! YOU STU...Nah, just kidding. I just found out today by watching a show that runs on the gamespot review site and I was quite shocked. Seriously, nothing good can come out of this and I mean NOTHING!

Yeah, it's always rather unfortunate when companies buy other companies.
