New Marvel game to be announced at SDCC!

The title says it all.  Gamerant has an article up that says High Moon Studios and Activision will be at Marvel's video game panel to make an announcement.  Could it finally be  MUA3 or just another Spidey game?

    High Moon?  They made Transformers: War for Cybertron, and they're finishing up Fall of Cybertron right now.  Far as I know, third-person shooters are their area of expertise, so a Marvel game doesn't make a lot of sense for them unless it's like a Punisher game or something.  And either a MUA3 or another Spidey game really doesn't fit them.

    I guess it's always possible, though I'm not so sure I really want High Moon working on this game.  They did good with War for Cybertron, but it'd be nice if they'd give it to a company that has some experience working on that type of game.  Course, this is Activision we're talking about.  I guess I got no idea what to expect, though.  Except that I really wouldn't expect it to be another Spider-Man game, since they've said that Beenox is gonna develop all their Spider-Man games, and that was only a couple years ago that they decided that, so I don't think they'd switch that so quickly.

    I don't think it'd ever be a Punisher game, either.  That's just where the studio's strengths would make sense.  And no one ever accused video game publishers of making sense!  I would expect something Avengers-related to keep raking in the cash after the movie, though they already do have that Kinect game, I guess.  You'd think a real, non-Kinect game would make more money, though.  I really don't expect a game titled MUA3, though, that's for sure.  If they do make one, they'd probably give it some kind of Avengers title, to connect it to the movie a little more.

    Never underestimate the lengths they'll go to to remind you who is in a show or game.  Look at the new EMH intro, where they feel the need to point out that Iron Man, Cap, Thor, and Hulk are all in the show.  They wanna make sure you know THIS IS THE AVENGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.  You know?  But there's a big difference between the shooters that High Moon is used to, and a game where you're punching supervillains in the face.  I feel like they would take totally different skillsets to design (though I don't exactly have any experience with it, obviously).

    Well, there's a new X-Men cartoon coming soon on Disney XD. There's also a new Iron Man cartoon and Avengers Assemble (more based on the movie than Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes).

     

    I'd say it's between X-Men, Iron Man (only if SEGA has lost the gaming license), or maybe Avengers.
