Played through the first two stages today, this is definitely the X-Men game I remember. Nice port

I loved this game in the arcade as a kid. But it's not worth 1200 Microsoft Points. It's your basic, late-80s, beat-em up. Nothing special about it except the X-Men license. Other similar games are dirt cheap. I'm waiting for this game to go down in value, then I'm all over it.

Sweet, then it went down in value. It was 1200.

Now they may have my interest, but I still need to purchase super meat boy first.

Objectively speaking, games like Castle Crashers, Shank and Dishwasher Samurai are WAY better. However, the beat'em up fanboy in me is happy to see this release as it opens up a potential gateway for other arcade classics to be released. Though I'm still pissed no one released Simpsons Arcade to coincide with the movie that came out

That makes logical sense to me. I think that game would do very well with online co-op

I don't think it was ever 1200. I bought it day one at 800. I don't know why the price would fluctuate that early.
