Iāve always wanted to be an Avenger. But Iād generally pictured being one of Earthās Mightiest Heroes as being a bit more dignified than what I experienced yesterday.
Up top is video from my first experience yesterday with Avengers: Battle for Earth, a motion-controlled tie-in being published by Ubisoft. The game happens during Marvel Comicsā recent Secret Invasion event, where shape-changing Skrull aliens masqueraded as powerful Marvel heroes. That explains why heroes would be fighting each other, I guess.
Iāll admit that my very quick initial attempts at playing Batttle for Earth on a Kinect-enabled Xbox 360 look fumbly and awkward, but Iām guessing that more time with the game would yield better results. That notwithstanding, Battle for Earth should be a pre-teen Avengers fanās dream come trueāespecially since itās got a split-screen versus multiplayerāwhen it hits sometime this fall.
