The problem is that Disney and Marvel don't have any great game developers under their names. Warner Bros has Rocksteady Studio and NetherRealm under their wings and those two have made some glorious DC games for them. What Disney/Marvel needs to do is follow Warner Bros Interactive Entertainments steps and acquire some studios/developers and have them start working on some Marvel games.

Either that are start their own in-house game studio and hire a bunch of talented video game developers. It honestly boggles my mind that we haven't received any big games from these guys. Seriously where are the Spider-Man, X-Men and Hulk games at?!

Didn't your mama ever tell you to Center HTML the narrower images?!? Better yet, you could click on the 'Align Left' or 'Align Right' buttons, which will not only reassign the picture to either side, but it automatically displaces all the text from below the picture, and puts it next to the picture. Technical pet peeves aside, you're absolutely right how Marvel's games have simply fallen off the map, lack of quality control and rushed release dates have resulted in some atrocious outings. Particularly with Sony in 2014, I think they should take the Spider-Man game rights away from Beenox and give them to Sucker Punch studios so we can get a spectacular Sinister Six video game, with Cole McGrath-type electro powers, and realistic wall-climbing. Spider-Man 2 and The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction were their swan songs when it came to gaming, and with Hulk I always thought they could take that gameplay engine and transmogrify it into a great Iron Man game, just replace the free-running with flying. In 2008 it did seem like those properties' movies were about to cross-pollinate, didn't pan out that way, but still! IH:UD was the last great Marvel game, and I think if they'd continued making games like that, worked on the flying mechanics for Iron Man, Thor, Falcon, and grounded the brawler mechanics for Cap, Hawkeye, Widow, that The Avengers tie-in game wouldn't have been cancelled. Of course there's a rights dispute preventing all these characters from sharing one console, I'm just speaking hypoallergenically.

@MrNiklander yeah it's pretty shocking. It's not like there isn't talent out there.

Hehe...Star Wars trailer huh? Lol, great write up though! Marvel has been pretty bad with their games thus far, and with all the money they make from their movies you'd think they'd have a decent game to follow up. I'd love to see an Avengers: Age of Ultron tie-in video game, but only if Marvel were able to do it the right way! Nice job!

@MrNiklander I would take out Ubisoft of the list, they aren't the best at making top quality, good quality(even if in my mind i'm thinking more of meh quality). But If Santa Monica Studios makes a Marvel game, my pants will drop out of hope for a great Marvel Game... That i hope that it isn't a Spider-Man game... Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Hulk, Ant-Man, DareDevil, Black Panther, etc. All deserve to get a great game that it isn't a free to play, heck an Avengers game made by Santa Monica Studios would get me naked at the moment i get the news

Man, that first person Avengers game looked really good. Sucks that it didn't make the cut.

It's a shame, I was really excited seeing that, despite being very early in development, it showed a lot of promise!

The problem is that every Phase 1 movie got a tie-in game, and they were nearly all godawful. Incredible Hulk was alright for it's time but very repetitive, Iron Man 1 & 2 were mediocre, Thor was damn near unplayable, Captain America was the only game that was any good, and even then it was no better than "decent". The track record isn't there for Marvel to spend more money on a tie-in. I hope we get a game set in the MCU eventually, but not one rushed to meet the deadline of a movie release.

Definitely glad you aren't the one making the decisions on these games. Seriously those are just atrocious.

Great article though @stick! I absolutely agree, and I think it's just going to be the NEXT platform Marvel's gonna conquer. It might take a year or three, but I really think we'll get there.
