Does Wolverine even have formal hand-to-hand-combat training? I know he was a soldier or whatever in WW2. Batman knows like every martial art ever, so I would think he'd have the edge there.

Only thing that might prove trouble for Batman is his regenerative powers.

What are you, 10 years old? Wolverine spent years training in Japan learning to be an assassin before joining a Canadian black ops program. Of course he has formal hand-to-hand combat.

Momo · « **Reply #20762 on:** May 07, 2012, 04:02:01 AM »

They both suffer from fan expectation bullshit. Wolverine needed to stay himself not the bullshit cant die, not afraid to take on Hulk and Skaar stupid shit he is saddled in. Batman I would be able to take as just a leader/shot caller at the Justice satellite. Going out to meet and face world killing villains is just bullshit. The Darkseid - Batman exchange was at least handled well, the rest is all bullshit. Batman and Wolverine need to stay street/city level heroes.

What Spider-Man (and the whole Marvel universe) has been going through in the last ten or so years is DC-ification by an EiC who didn't even like Marvel as a fan. Joe Q was (outside of Daredevil) a DC fanboy through and through and he's done his god-damned best to try to turn Marvel into DC.

And Wolverine would kill the shit out of Batman. a) Wolverine really can't be killed. b) Wolverine is willing to kill. c) Batman can be killed pretty easily. d) Batman refuses to kill.

Not saying it wouldn't be an interesting fight, but in the end, a non-powered human being with a moral code against killing isn't going to stand a chance against Wolverine. Wolverine is a giant pile of bullshit. So is Batman, but Batman is empowered by the magic of the writer, while Wolverine's got his bullshit written into his fucking powers.

Pretty much. I like Wolverine as much as the next guy, but I can at least admit he's a mary sue for Marvel.

And the X-men is about the only series that I can stomach at Marvel. DC? Batman and that's about it. So I really don't have a dog in this ponyshow, but there you go: As a non-comic reader these are the two universes/characters that are actually interesting to me. Ironman's movie(s) were good, but it's basically "Oh, Tony is killing himself with thing that's saving him. Oh and he's a playboy! Look at all these women he fucks!" $:-\$ I mean I know that's the comic as well but geez. $:-\$

Andy's too young to remember real Marvel (Shooter years were the crescendo, it wound down slowly after him with DeFalco, then really hit the shit under Harras, then started DCifying with the Bill and Joe Show). Hilariously, I think JoeQ has completely torched his bridges at DC, so he'll probably ride out the Marvel gig til he's removed, which I doubt will ever happen.

well Joe Quessada isn't the EiC anymore but it still seems like his influence is still there.

Batman can beat Wolverine with a magnet. Until Wolverine somehow loses his magically strong metal frame and becomes more powerful because that magic metal was secretly poison or something.

if you were a multiplat gamer, the gamecube was probably worse than the n64. nintendo's titles were pretty weak on the cube, and there weren't very many decent third party exclusives at all.

Definitely the other way around for me. N64 atrocious, Gamecube A-OK

The Sceneman · « **Reply #20794 on:** May 08, 2012, 06:16:52 AM »

GC has the major edge over N64 for me, because some of my all time faves were GC games. Definitive versions of Killer 7 and RE4, Baten Kaitos and Origins are my favourite jrpgs of all time. Zelda Wind Waker is the best Zelda, and Pikmin 2 is one of the best Nintendo games ever. F-Zero GX is one of the finest racers. GC's highs beat out N64's highs by a country mile

Goku.

-Senzu beans

How?
-Exploit the fuck out of Supermans Kryptonite weakness
-Doesnt have a silly weakness like Kryptonite for Superman to exploit

If we are talking Superman prime the guy who no-sells Kryptonite and sneezes solar systems half way across the galaxy, then Superman though.

I can't fucking stand the way Rare designs games. The formula clearly works for a lot of people, but I hate it personally. I don't like Goldeneye, either, I should clarify. Just acknowledge that it's a great game even if it's not to my tastes.

I largely agree, but I'm with Barry on Blast Corps. I love that game. I mean, I've got a soft spot for Goldeneye, but will readily concede that it doesn't hold up well and is revered for memories of split-screen deathmatch. But Blast Corps? I still play that game occasionally.

The great thing about Nintendo these days is they can't possibly put out a machine as absolutely fucking shockingly shit as the N64.

Agreed. That era was the lowpoint for Nintendo and I have never liked their systems as much as a I did the NES and SNES since. Virtual Boy, N64, and Gameboy Color were all huge letdowns to me. I loved the Game Cube and GBA, but then came the DS and Wii and I lost most of my interest in Nintendo again.

Quote

Loved Goldeneye, ISS soccer, Mario, Mario tennis, Mario Golf, Sin and Punishment - but that was about it. Weakest line up of any console in living memory.

Pretty much just liked Goldeneye (for the multi), Conker's Bad Fur Day, and Smash Bros. S&P seemed cool but I never did play much of it. Had some fun with Beetle Adventure Racing and Killer Instinct Gold too.

Quote

And hey, i had a raging bone for it when i got it - i was sitting my finals/doing my final year project at Uni -and- desperately trying to 100% clear Mario 64. I honestly though "hmmm... this about wraps it up for the PS1!" ... lol... though the big give away should have been the hilarious 64.99 quid games

When the N64 came out, it was the opposite for me. I was excited about it when the game store I was working at got Japanese N64s in the summer of 1996. Then I saw Mario 64 and was instantly turned off by it. I hated the direction they went in and ended up having way more 3D platforming fun with Jumping Flash! 2.

The N64 is the only Nintendo system I never bought...I even bought the Virtual Boy (when EB slashed the price to $30 new), although I did end up with one. The Zelda OOT hype was so huge that my grandfather bought the system and the game for me. I wasn't a fan of Zelda either and sold it off for Goldeneye. The system sat gathering dust most of the time. I still have it and most of the few games I got sitting somewhere in my parents' house.
