| By Da Ill One - 10-09-2010, 10:48 AM - Boxden > BX GameSpot ![]() During a panel at New York Comic-Con this morning, Marvel executives announced that a deal had been met with Konami to rerelease a certain beat-em-up of old. Simply titled X-Men, it was a sidescrolling action affair fondly remembered for it's six-player co-op and campy charm. The intent is to stay as faithful to the original machine as possible, with both offline and online multiplayer. Online play will allow for up to six players, who may freely drop in and out at any point during gameplay. Even the so-called "cheese" will return, with players both new and old facing Magneto, the master of magnet. There was a trailer shown during the panel, which will be added to this article as soon as it hits the Internet. Until then, you can go ahead and YouTube footage from the original game... and welcome to die. Konami's Classic X-Men Arcade game finding new life on XBLA and PSN - Xugo Gaming |
