Developer: Crystal Dynamics Publisher:Square Enix Marvel’s Avengers should really be a lot higher on this list, at least not right at the bottom. While, yes, it does a few good moments across its single-player campaign, it quickly becomes bogged down in live service tripe and one heck of a grind that feels completely pointless. Despite the qualms m...
Developer: Radical Entertainment Publisher:Vivendi Universal Games[ The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction is one of the most underrated superhero games ever made, despite its clearly low budget. Released at a time when Hollywood just couldn’t quite get the Hulk, Ultimate Destruction immediately understood the appeal of the character: Smash. An ...
Developer: Rocksteady Publisher:WB Games An early game released during the boom of the updated tech, Batman: Arkham VR still stands up as one of the best virtual reality games going. There’s nothing quite like donning a headset and feeling like you’re instead donning the famous cowl — Arkham VR does a fantastic job of helping you become the Bat. So...
Developer: Pentadimensional Games Publisher:Pentadimensional Games You’re going to need a VR headset (and maybe some ginger) to get the most out of Megaton Rainfall: an FPS of sorts that pits you as an all-powerful entity who must stop an alien invasion. You fly around the world at breakneck speed and take the fight to the bad guys in this limited ...
Developer: Radical Entertainment Publisher:Activision Often compared somewhat unfavourably to an entry you’ll find later on in this list, Prototype is perhaps too edgy for its own good but still packs one hell of punch. You play as Alex Mercer, who is “gifted” with powers that allow you him to shapeshift and create massive bloody swords from his ar...
Developer: Raven Software Publisher:Activision A game we overlooked on our first draft of this list probably because of its association with the terrible, terrible movie of the same name, X-Men Origins: Wolverine goes to places that the movies never could. Namely chopping your enemies into little pieces with Logan’s adamantium claws. More graphic t...
Developer: Traveller’s Tales Publisher:Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment If you want a challenging and gritty superhero game, Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2 ain’t it. If you want one that you can absent-mindedly play with the young ones and titter along to some pretty cheesy laughs, it’s one of your best options. Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2 doesn’t...
Developer: Telltale Games Publisher:Telltale Games You might be surprised to know that Batman: The Telltale Series actually has a lot of action in it for a Telltale experience. It’s not quite as immersive as The Walking Dead: The Final Season, but it should be viewed as the first sign that Telltale were trying to move away from their simplistic but...
Developer: Volition Publisher:Deep Silver Technically, this isn’t a true superhero game. For one, the game never definitively calls you a superhero and also you never saw Captain America clobbering people with a purple dildo, though that may have improved The First Avenger. If you wanted The Avengers meets Adult Swim, however, Saints Row 4 should b...
Developer: Ubisoft San Francisco Publisher:Ubisoft Much like Saints Row 4, South Park: The Fractured But Whole doesn’t feature characters that would be adorned on posters as national heroes. Instead, you play as the titular town’s infamous kids as they daydream about being superheroes. And farting on everything in sight. An RPG-lite, The Fractured ...
