Oh, hey. My first post did show up. Thought something was wrong, 'cause refreshing the page did nothing.

I second this idea. It would be a nice change of pace, and I'd like to see him in the spotlight more.

I seem to recall playing a Tick game for the Genesis, though it wasn't exactly great.

Well, since I don't think that Swamp Thing would translate well into a game, or that at the very least in order to translate it into a game it'd probably have to lose a lot of what made it so damn good in the first place, I'm going to go ahead and say that a well done Hellboy game would kick major ass. Hellboy has both the opportunity for some really cool enemies, both normal minions as well as bosses, and combat as Hellboy could definitely be satisfying. Plus, I think that the Hellboy stories could easily translate into a format in which you told story in cutscenes, and had combat for the game. Unlike Swamp Thing which, in order to properly translate into a game, would probably require some sort of weird ass Rez HD type game play... which would be awesome, but probably just kind of confusing to anyone who hadn't read the comic.

There was a The Tick game? Eh, my Sega Genesis library was Ghostbusters, Dr.Robotnic's Crazy Bean Machine and an X-Men game.

The Joker, give him a brutal M rated game and, it would be an awesome, terrifying, genre bending good time.

Venom; I think Venom's cool, he needs a game.

Venom kinda has his own game, it's shared with Spidey but if you beat it he's all yours. He is very fun to play as. See Ultimate Spiderman.

Ot: I really think the Riddler desearves(wow I am really at a lose as to how to spell this atm) his own game.
You mean a game where you play as the Riddler? I just don't see that working out. Now, I think a game where you're Batman, and the riddler is your main opponent would be awesome. One of my favorite parts of Arkham Asylum was solving all of the Riddler puzzles, and I'd love to have a whole game that delved even deeper into those puzzle elements. That said, a game where you played as The Riddler would be awful. Riddler sets up puzzles and traps, and I just don't think that'd translate well into a game. Puzzles and traps are fun to solve in a game, but without a remarkably intelligent AI they'd be no fun to set up. Setting up puzzles and traps for an AI would either be too hard, because you'd have to work with the limited options the dev gave you, or too easy because it'd be too simple to outsmart any current AI. And since the Riddler isn't exactly a combat based villain, the game wouldn't have any good gameplay to stand on.

As unoriginal as this will sound, Deadpool.

He can be a villain or a hero and everything he does he'll think is what needs to be done. It would be the ultimate choice system in that there is no "good" or "evil" choice but simply "I'll do this because I can!".

Also, it'll give Deadpool fans something more to complain about.

I think a Deadpool game would be an absolute blast, as as it was both hilarious and gory.
And it would also be cool to play as Thanos during that whole Infinity War business... you could just run around controlling the cosmos and thrashing every super hero and it would be an awesome time, and the better you do, the harder the game is at the end when suddenly... OMG... you take control of the heroes and have to defeat Thanos! That would be fun.

You have a very good point, although there is a game called Trapt that was quite fun. I guess what I meant was a game that was just Riddler puzzles like AA. I won't explain it because you have already said it better than I can/could.

Mad March. Kind of a graphic novel I'm working on, actually, it would be a crap game because its mostly story driven and would probably bore most people who started playing games after 2003 (no offence, just observations)and it would pretty much be Hitman, but kooky
