Thanks to Newsarama for the following information which was taken from their live report at the New York Comic Con!

Iron Man 2

The panel acknowledged the Iron Man games "weren't very good" and they're working hard to buck that trend with Cap and Thor.

Captain America: Super Soldier

Captain America: Super Soldier was shown with a new trailer. The game features Cap exploring a huge military complex housing Red Skull and his army. A huge pop for the trailer.

"Combat was the focus" when they started making the game. The Shield is used for close range and long range offense and defense. You can even deflect bullets back at opponents with it. The shield in Captain America will be used to interact with the environment.

Christos Gage, writer of the game, mentions this Cap is younger, and "on his way to becoming that living legend."

He promised villains galore, mentioned that there are other guest stars, too, including another hero and a guest star who is "neither hero nor villain."

"There will be ally characters" but Cap is the only playable for the game.


Thor

A trailer for Thor teasing the game was shown next.

Surtur, Ulik, Ymir, and more plus all 9 worlds are promised for the Thor game, which takes place in the movie universe but stands alone.
