Honestly, I think that movie probably started life as a decent superpower-revenge movie, and then someone realized that there was some cat-tieins and with some mangling they could use a much more famous name as the main character. So they mangled away and released what we got, disrespecting both the movie and Catwoman at the same time.

Only two of the games on this list I heard of, the others are just...wow. 3: I share the same confusion in how one manages to mess up a tie-in game this many years later coming off one of the most overwhelmingly popular depictions of Thor in recent times. While I highly doubt that voice in any way was Chris Hemsworth reading lines THAT badly, I find myself trying to figure out if Tom Hiddleston WAS the one held at gunpoint doing Loki's lines or was that someone doing their impression of Tom Hiddleston WHILE doing Loki's lines at gunpoint. Alot to ask if its the latter. 4: This I had no idea even existed and well...now I wish it stayed that way. It looks as if it plays like a terribly adapted Iguana west Wrestling game and it somehow manages to make pulling a guy's arm off look boring and tame even in that era (Meanwhile, a certain fighting game franchise made that look shocking in 2D a few years earlier) 5: Good god, the name alone is just...why? As for the game itself, a luckluster depiction of the source material AND useless puzzles in the middle of fighting AND a Time Limit? Its like they wanted to make a godawful game regardless of what system it was on (Although I think the ZX Spectrum players got the worst end of the tainted shaft) 6: Is it bad that I like the sax-heavy song in Mr Fantastic's intro? Its literally the only thing pleasing audibly or otherwise in this...game (Abit like the soundtrack in that one Sonic game. Can you feel the sunshine?) 7: *Sigh* This falls right in that same category of "I don't know what's worse" as the Catwoman Movie and Tie-in game. Both are terrible, questionable, barely resemble the source material and are only good if all you wanted to see was a celebrity in leather (Although in that last bit, the Movie is by far the better alternative with both so the game is worse).

I’ve seriously never even heard of these games. Jeez.

[@oxfanblink4115]

You’re lucky the Batman Arkham series and both Spider-Man and Spider-Man Miles Morales are the only recent must plays for comic book fans/gamers. Guardians Of The Galaxy is far better than Avengers for it’s story but still not quite up there with Arkham or either Spider-Man

"The Rude Lube of Dr. Megaman" has got to be one of the best lines I've heard today. And it's been a day full of awesome lines.

6. So it's a Fantastic Bore? That's Grimm. Lame on!

[@paulellington1505]

Hey Luke She-Hulk was in the Fantastic Four video game because in the comic she joined the team after Sue/Invisible Woman had a mental breakdown and she had helped the team previously as their lawyer. Just a little info from a huge fan of Outside Xbox and Outside Xtra and Oxventure Guild as well as a comic reader for most of my life. Keep it up👍

[@Legion_Immortal]

Captain America: Super Soldier wasn't that bad

[@CyarSkirata]

Okay, now I have an idea: hear me out. A Daredevil game where you always start out each new area with a black screen save for Murdoch himself, and the world is filled in visually by every applicable sensory input that reaches him. Daredevil makes any kind of noise, his immediate surroundings get permanently filled in via echolocation, along with NPCs and the like being shown for the duration of the noise. A character walks, you can see them constantly thanks to the sound and floor-vibrations of their footsteps. They try to sneak, you can still see them but they're nearly transparent because they're quieter. You can basically use the same system Stealth games use for guards hearing you to govern how sound travels - make the environment somewhat transparent so if the sound of footsteps makes it to you around a corner, you can faintly see the walking NPC through the wall. Given the lack of conventional visuals, the biggest game design hurdle would probably be in making the game comfortable and interesting to look at.

I have never seen a video game romance with more chemistry then Mr Fantastic and those Skrulls.

[@urchinscurvy2049]

New avengers game, just a bit bland

[@someonescupoftea7386]

I got the sense the Daredevil sequence was written by Andy before Pheonix Wright was mentioned. Then Ellen started talking about the eyes on the costume xD

[@lordreptilestormblade1749]

"its settled, the Fantastic Four suck, go She-Hulk!" *she dies almost immediately*

[@totz_the_plaid9625]

She-Hulk was one of numerous substitute members of the Fantastic Four, filling in for quite a while after Thing stuck around in outer space after the '80s "Secret Wars" event. She might have been the longest-serving substitute as well, I'm not sure. Other subs include Medusa & Crystal of the Inhumans, the forgotten Ms. Marvel (Sharon Ventura, who was turned into a She-Thing at one point), and far more recently Spider-Man during the early Future Foundation era while Human Torch was briefly dead.

[@starscreamsniper926]

To answer why she Hulk was in that fantastic four game is because in a lot of comics she has either been a love interest or replacement muscle for the thing whenever the thing didn't have powers. Sometimes it's both

[@CantankerousDave]

Mamoa's Aquaman is also buds with a kraken the size of a mountain that's voiced by Julie Andrews, so he's got that going for him. Which is nice.

[@alexroy5854]

It's funny because the GameCube Fantastic Four game based on the fun 2000's movie with Sum 41 in the soundtrack was a great game. It had tons of things to unlock, you could play as the whole crew and play 2 player couch co-op, and Taking Back Sunday did Mr. Fantastic's theme song! :D

[@nicholascross3557]

To be honest, the Boob Tube of Dr. Megalodon sounds like a lot of 80's workout videos. The 80's were weird...

[@deminumenera1758]

Was looking for this quote while i was laughing too hard to watch the rest of the video

[@stevenlarson5734]

I played Aquaman when I was a kid. It was the first game I played that taught me games could be bad. Thanks...I guess.

[@rayneclouds223]

The thing about the aqua man game not having actual cutscenes is not only in that game. I used to have the ORIGINAL lego Batman on my DS, and the levels didn’t have cutscenes, just comic panels with no words trying to explain the story through only pictures.

[@catgirllover5859]

The aquaman game is a guilty pleasure of mine it's bad but I loved it as a kid

[@simpleexplodingmaybe]

I had that Fantastic Four game. You really didn’t make enough of just how jazzy all the music is

[@cloudstrife532220]

Your concept for a Daredevil game sounds pretty neat actually, Ace Attorney/Assassin's Creed lovechild.

[@rorybryant3282]

Ellen earned the like with the "God of War" joke.

[@amaronith]

Fun Fact: She-Hulk has actually been on the Fantastic Four! She replaced The Thing for a short time when Ben Grimm stayed on Battleworld after the Secret Wars story arc.

[@bigpmp883]

I wasn't expecting the Avengers Alliance reference. That game got shut down in 2016, and I'm still not over it. It was the only game on Facebook worth spending actual money on and I still miss it.

[@SonicFrake]

Trapped in 2020 for all eternity? Most evil supervillain ever confirmed.
