X-MEN: LEGENDS GOES BACK INTO ACTION

Activision announces a sequel to the superhero RPG

16:13 Activision has revealed in a brief press statement that work is already underway on a sequel to superhero RPG X-Men: Legends, Raven Software once again at the development helm.
The decision to deliver a sequel has been made based on the " strong consumer response" to the original game, says Activision. Format destinations for X-Men: Legends 2 have yet to be confirmed - as has a release date.

Anyway, word from Ron Doornink, CEO of Activision, on X-Men and X-Men: Legends is: " For 40 years Marvel' s X-Men have captivated consumers worldwide and today the brand is stronger than ever... X-Men Legends is already on track to be the best selling game in the franchise' s history."

Ames Kirshen, director of videogame development at Marvel, meanwhile, has said: " We are thrilled with the critical and consumer response to X-Men Legends. Marvel and Activision are committed to ensuring that the X-Men Legends series will continue to be a top notch game franchise for years to come."

" Strong Consumer Response" ?Bull. the end of the said that there will be a sequel. so that whole SCR is bull. just keep it real, amd say " We are going to make a WHOLE lot of games with this and run with it." It is a really good game and i beat it. The 2nd part it ONLY going to be better. i can not wait and thanks DaRoosh for the heads up on the info.

I agree and just wondering if the games would have carry over like Norrath, Baldurs, etc.

ME i never was a fan of the Xmen. but the game changed that, alls i can say is that the games okay.

i agree with IORI............ when the game ends ............. the finishing scene clearly shows that a sequal was on the way so that' s no big surprise at my end............ wat kinda of idiot any would beat the game..............see the end and don' t expect a sequal................

thats going to be cool i cant wait

Awesome! I loved this game. It' s just like Hunter, or Baulder' s Gate, or Gauntlet, but with the X-men. Being a long time fan, I can say that nothing is as fun as runnign around teleporting with Nightcrawler, or charging up a table as Gambit. Can' t wait for teh sequel.

well thats pretty awesome....i was honestly surprised at how nice xml was, so I' ll be looking forward to seeing this new one. great news!

The more quality x-men games in the market the better. I' ve yet to play legends so I don' t have my own opinion on it, but friends say it' s great, and if you can play as iceman, then you' re ok in my books.
