As fans look back on the two recent Spider-Man titles with vivid fondness, and look forward to Insomniac Games’ Wolverine on the horizon, it can be hard to remember how difficult it was to find these stellar superhero experiences in decades past. From Spawn: Armageddon to Ghost Rider, the 2000’s were riddled with often mediocre titles for caped crusaders.
However, if fans look further, there were quite a few titles to scratch the superhero itch, long before the Marvel Cinematic Universe lent itself to movie tie-in games with mixed results. Sometimes, these titles even made their own legacy, proving that originality was best when creating games that featured high-flying, cape-endowed heroes.
From Marvel mainstays like Venom and Spider-Man, to more obscure heroes like the now Disney popularized Moon Knight and Captain Marvel, this game brought something to the table for the first time Marvel fans and comic book veterans alike. The now iconic top-down beat-em up enabled fans to live their superhero fantasies to the fullest, utilizing the powers of their favorite heroes to take down villains like Doctor Doom and Loki. Before iconic MCU performances, mainstays of voice acting Quinton Flynn and Steve Blum voiced Spider-Man and Wolverine respectively.
