Alleged screens and video from Factor 5's canned Superman game

Will they ever make a good superman game? Parts of returns where on the right track. Wish but it will never happen.

In regards to Superman64, has anyone that worked on that game ever opened up candidly about it in relation to how widely acknowledged it is throughout the industry as being one of the worst games ever? I'm curious to know their thoughts in hindsight.

Ah, Superman64. The only game I've ever played that accurately simulated being retarded.

having never played the game...and having heard all the internet griping about just how retarded superman 64 was has really only served to peek my intrests on just how miserable of a game it could be...im sure ill never get the chance without actualy going out of my way....but i am intrested none the less.

So was it a Superman game with Lair controls?

This is very important, because this is the first thing to come out of Factor 5 since that concept shot of Pit, and even the validity of that was highly questionable (due to its low quality. A concept is equal to the quality seen here)

It just deepens the mystery about Factor 5's apparent demise

i love how superman 64 is still the go to game for terribleness. i just wonder how many people actually have played the game vs how many people just go with what other people say.
me, i got that game when it first game out, no online reviews, or demos, so i bought it (well, my mother did). i still have it in a box, and whenever people say some game is bad, i invite them over and make them play superman 64.

Superman is just one of those properties that you really can't turn into a proper video game in all honesty. You can't have him taking damage from any human objects - bullets bounce off him, and rockets/explosives would only push/bounce him around until he gets smart and starts punching them or using heat vision. And you can't have EVERYONE in the game running around with kryptonite weapons. Scenarios like "Save people (especially Lois) from falling off building/getting crushed/dying/etc" haven't ever really been done well in video games, and would probably be too frustrating if too complex. Just give me a Superman game that's like Shadow of the Colossus...nothing but bosses/characters who have actually been able to damage him in the comics.

Either that or make it some kind of whacky dating game where you date Lois as Clark, and everytime she goes to the restroom/copyroom/etc, you fly off to save X number of people, then fly back in enough time to enjoy the rest of your date.

Game needs more rings and fog.

That music's barely apropiate for Superman. Still, it might have been good, but it's hard to say.

Hmm, they could spice it up a bit, give him a mobile so that when you're not saving the world, you can date chicks :D

man that sucks. stupid economy. Superman should be able to be in a good game. They just haven't put in effort to make an actually good game. batman's history isn't that great either, but that new one looks awesome.

Superman deserves a good game, hell he deserves a good modern movie too.

All we have of him is some shitty teen WB drama and one of the crappiest games in history.
