Sticky Review - X-Men (Arcade)

WELCOME TO DIE!

[Luffymon88]

what was that arcade game were you get to play as captain america, Iron man, some gold clothed guy or some bow and arrow person?

[lukester20]

@Luffymon88 That game would be Captain America and the Avengers! what a quality game! you can get it on the Sega Mega Drive (Genesis) or Super Nintendo.

The Sega version is much better though. Probably played it more than any other game.

I never got to play the arcade version but from what i've seen the graphics are better than the console versions.

The arcade I usually go to, welcome to DIE!

They used to have this in 6-player and other classics, but now whenever anything breaks for any reason other than a controller problem (even on fairly modern games), they are replaced by a redemption (ticket) game. That said, they keep all the bad games nobody plays and kick out all the heavily played classics. They used to have loads of great games, now it's all crappy games (eg. arctic thunder) and redemption. At least their Sega games still hold up.

Actually, according to Konami the arcade classic will come to consoles (PS3 and XBLA) in the form of an emulated ROM, which will feature jazzed-up graphics and new voice overs.

Konami has not specified an exact release date yet, but the game will be set for a next-gen premiere sometime this winter.

"Welcome to die" will still be in the game, just voiced by a new actor. And you can play either the Japanese version of the game, which generously features power-ups, or the American version.

[supersf2Ken]

its coming to PSN and XBLA soon.

[FunkMastaMegaFlex]

This game was the best! To bad they never ported it, but I guess that's why they have emulators!

[WWEDivaFan1986]

Best X-Men Game Ever, Followed by The Sega Genesis games!

[pguest1080]

why did you post your script ? are you like, an author, or something?

[StickySweater]

@pguest1080 Consistency.

[pguest1080]

@StickySweater you use the special moves too often... you need to be more careful because it saps your strength when you use it.

[pguest1080]

@StickySweater did you take all your information from Wiki, or something?

[StickySweater]

@pguest1080 Maybe a little. Most of it's from my own personal experience with the game years ago.

[toadman842]

They knew back then that wolverine would be a Australian man lol. It's menacing at :10 when it shows magneto's face and it says X MEN.

[gedaman]

0:50 Ausralian Wolverine!!! LMAO I must see more of that!

X-Men was great in the arcades back in the day. I remember just walking off the cliff a few times for fun on the 3rd level.

[NFamous45]

this game was ahead of its time

[theluiginater]

Thank you for introducing to something I can't believe I forgot.

[jons44]

Actually, this arcade game came out in April of 1992, I believe and I know that the cartoon started in October 1992 so Konami missed it be a few months.

[Shiru77]

I am Magneto, master of MAGNET

[Shiru77]

This game kick ass

[ModelJames13]

Anyone who doesn't like this game......WELCOME TO DIE!!!

[Awesomermac]

I remember this arcade game from when I was a kid, I have it on the MAME emulator. (Which is most likely where you got it to do this video)

[EvasionStudios]

One of my favorite games as a kid to waste quarters on. Thankfully through some online searching for a few hours I found this game modded for use on a computer. I have it running on both my computers. It's great to relieve this.

[kekekeiskorean]

tsk, tsk. you forgot to mention colossus. he had one of the most recognizable mutant powers in the game. he just yelled & killed everything around him. brutal. "nothing can stop the blob!"

[bjstinger18]

nothing can move the blob.

[Disthron]

This actually looks pretty cool. Maybe magneto was going to go into one of those long winded villain speeches prepared but then thought screw it, I'll just try to kill you. So it cam out as.

"Welcome to....Die!"

[benderchump]

hugh jackman is australian,funny.

[stephensamperi]

i loved this in the arcade. but i played one where the screen was extra wide, or it looked wider...i dunno, it was cool

[Dopefish69]

yeah, at the arcade it was 2 screens sticking togheter. old "widescreen" huh

[thankgodimatheist]

so if tthis was never ported to home consoles

your in a arcade filming yourself?

or virtual console?

[masterz28]

I remember playing this with my brother I was 5 then and we almost beat magneto, just the two of us.

[FlameAdder]

I agree wholeheartedly with everything you said. You need to work on your charisma a bit, though, you sound kind of bored.

[juanetejuan1]

Magneto was singin Welcome to dying, of blind guardian!! he just make a mystake with the letter. Magneto rocks!!!

[acidglow]

Great game to play online with 4 players.

[boltox]
