Turns out some company called THQ Brisbane was working on an Avengers video game before they got shut down. The website Kotaku got their hands on some actual gameplay footage, showing a first-person shooter style of game, only you get to play as Avengers characters. The videos are pretty wild, with the Hulk and Iron Man and Thor so far shown. You fly and smash and throw the hammer, and it looks kind of cool. I can’t imagine it being very good, since comic book video games aren’t very good. But wow, imagine what we could have had.

Both the Thor and Captain America movies had video game adaptations. Alyssa said the Cap game was alright, but nothing special. I don’t imagine Thor was anything special either. Movie tie-in games just aren’t anything special anymore. Not since Spider-Man 2.

Still, check out these videos!

And then a second one.

What do you think? Does it look like a fun game? Would it have been cool to play as superheroes in the first person?
