Pit the most legendary Marvel characters against The Imperfects, a group of Super Heroes created collaboratively by Marvel, EA, and top comic book industry talent, in all-out duels to determine who among them is the most powerful of all. Control a number of characters from Marvel's library of Super Hero families including Spider-Man, Wolverine, and Iron Man. Pummel and ultimately crush adversaries in fully interactive and highly destructible arenas and experience what it's like to fully posses each Hero's super powers.

Well, here’s the deal. The gameplay, so far, is 3D (get back here, purists), and looks to be reminiscent of games like Super Smash Bros. Melee, X-Men: Mutant Academy, and even the old Power Stone titles. You’ve got two or more fighters in a closed arena, chock full of objects to hurl at one another and ways to blow things up. The environments are destructible, and not just that “there are some conveniently placed barrels that blow up when you touch them because they’re supposed to” sort of destructible. We’re talking walls getting dented, giant billboards getting torn down (or used as incidental electrical weaponry), the whole shebang.Check the full Marvel Nemesis: Rise of the Imperfects preview (http://www.worthplaying.com/article.php?sid=25833) over at WorthPlaying.

Im really suprised EA hasnt started some sort of publicity campaign in order to persuade you to change your mind about them...they should have charity auctions and pictures of their programers lounging around watercoolers slacking off and bitching about how hard their job is, between bites of that company supplied danish.

While I would have preferred to see a Marvel vs. Capcom 3, the trailer looked pretty interesting. I mean, being able to throw cars at people is never a bad thing.

Spider-Man sure has a nice ass, as seen in this screenshot: http://www.worthplaying.com/preview/e32005/Marvel_Nemesis_E3_Image_5.jpg

I pronounce a new name: Spider-Ass.

Hmm. I predict this game will be really poorly balanced.

Interested, but if the controls are as spongy as Def Jam, I'll pass..
