With the Marvel Cinematic Universe in full swing of course a video game would be made for the Avengers, Marvel’s premiere superhero team. The problem is that only the first Iron Man had come out so they didn’t have an MCU template. So they went with the comics…sadly choosing The Ultimates rather than the regular universe Avengers and the Ultimate universe version is a bit more on the bloody side. That was not the problem, however, as THQ’s Australian branch hit numerous issues trying to get the game made and ultimately (heh) it never would be. CNet’s Mark Serrels goes through the history of this first-person Avengers game, and I’m not sure that would have worked unless it was in VR, that found too many walls impeding its creation.
