  1. More of these please! Or does anyone know where I can find anything similar?

    This thread has been superb for finding runs that I wouldn't usually have heard about. Whenever I try to research what to read next, I just get sent down the most obvious paths or directed to stuff that I've already read. 

  2. I've had this debate with friends a few times: my perspective is that I don't mind as long as race isn't a central part of the character. Like with James Bond, him being a white Englishman with imperialistic overtones is one reason I wouldn't want to see a black Bond. Whereas as far as I can see, Peter Parker's race wouldn't really matter if it changed: the character wouldn't really alter.

    I always thought Danny Rand as a mystical martial arts white guy was always part of the innate ridiculousness of the character, especially when it's kind of done "tongue in cheek" like in Matt Fraction's run. 

  3. Just finished Grant Morrisons run on New X-Men and loved it. It goes without saying that you'll either love Morrison's style or find it pretentious and self indulgent, but it's well worth a shot. 

     

    Anyone have any any recommednations as to where I should go next? I was thinking a Spider-Man series, but not sure where to start. Any suggestions?

  4. Basically goes over the changes to creation suite, for arenas you can mix and match parts from different arenas to build your own rather than using it as a base and changing just the logos and colours. For superstars the import image overlay for faces allows you to align parts of the face model to the face image such as eyes and mouth, also the hair dye feature is not limited to one colour so you can go full rainbow. You can pick a fighting style (Aerial, Brawler, Giant, Power, Showboat, Striker, Technician) as well as personality traits that are thinks that can be built through MyCareer. The rest goes on about the career mode and says that Universe is pretty much unchanged.

    Thank you! That all sounds pretty good. I wonder if changing the fighting style affects anything serious about the game play or whether it'll be minor differences. All sounds pretty good!

  5. Can someone please watch this and list the new information? I hate these YouTube videos. What's wrong with writing? I'll be over here with my pipe and slippers. 

    Being from Newcastle, I'd have thought you're the only person here that could understand and translate.

    I speak Geordie, not fuckwit. I can't take more than 10 seconds of those videos. 

  6. So this version of the game feels like a real improvement. What do you think the next game needs to be even better?

    I'd love it if they played with the stamina system a bit more. Instead of chinlocks etc being submission moves they should trigger a mini-game where if you're successful you can drain a portion of your opponents stamina bar. It's already a great system, so I think that addition would help a lot.

  7. Even if there aren't ladder matches (I thought the videos were current gen, but I could be wrong, I'll need to double check) there's still TLC matches. Basically the same thing.

    It's not ideal that they're gone, but if it means a ladder match that works next year, I'm fine with that.

  8. Basically, he's kind of too similar to The Joker, right? In the sense that the threat he would pose to Batman would be similar and not as severe. I guess they could have gone Riddler for the 2nd film and Joker for the 3rd but I think they got this spot on.

    Also, did anyone mark for the

    Killer Croc hint/throwaway line?

    I missed that, what was it?
