I think the problem is not so much Super Hero or comic book games, but Movie tie-in games. It seems like making the games fit in with the style of the move is the first priority and game play is secondary. The comic to video game properties that are successes tend to be the one were the developers don’t have to worry about continuity and can focus on making a good game. Mortal Kombat Vs DC, Spider-Man Web or Shadows, and Batman Arkham Asylum didn’t have movie producers to impress during the production.
yeah you bring up a good point,but the Wolverine Origins game was awesome for example,course really it didn’t have much to do with the movie maybe that’s why.

I didn’t rent the Wolverine game since I had already been burned by so many movie tie-ins and there were other games I wanted at the time it came out.
