The only thing that could come out of this Gates of Hell brouhaha is the appearance of an overly-sensitive Filipino in the next Brown novel.

We could always use more Dazzler
Thor: GOT is very good.
Cable and X-force is a bit meh. Uncanny X-Force is better IMHO
Look into X-Men #1 coming out this week.
Consider: Daredevil, Captain Marvel, Young Avengers
I was a bit bored so I did some counting. Of the games on this list:
xbox360 - 36 games, 2 exclusives
xbox one - 7 games, 1 exclusive
ps3 - 44 games, 8 exclusives
ps4 - 10 games, 3 exclusives
vita - 6 games, 2 exclusives (this makes me sad)
wiiu - 22 games, 9 exclusives
3ds - 15 games, 8 exclusives
pc - 50 games, 20 exclusives
The characters are all owned by Marvel. Marvel is owned by Disney.
Sony doesnt “own” the Spider-man franchise. Sony has an exclusive license from Marvel to use Spider-man in movies; that means only they can produce Spider-man movies. The license is from before Marvel had their own movie studio.
Fox also has a similar license for the X-Men/Fantastic Four.
For any characters where Marvel hasn’t given anyone else an exclusive movie license, they can use those characters in their own movies.

Love that AoA Madureira cover
…and you’re tasked with writing the script for a movie that will fold them into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. What would the story look like?
I sunk some 2-300 hours into Crusaders of the Dark Savant back in the day, but never managed to finish it, although I think I got rather close. I remember that it was always troublesome to find those maps off the randomly wandering NPCs.
I don’t think I’d have time to play it again though :p

You dont need the new Xbox to be nostalgic for old-school gaming
You can get what is currently free. As long as you have “purchased” a free game, it stays in your download list and you can redownload it any time as long as your subscription is active, even after it rotates from the IGC.
This should be in the sidebar, it gets asked all the time.

They are very different types of games, though they do share the universe/lore.
Physical purchases (vita cartridges/ps3 discs) are not region locked, you can play games you bought from any physical store anywhere.
For PS+, you’ll need a Sony Entertainment Network (SEN) account. Your account will have a country associated with it at creation time and this cannot be changed later.
Online purchases made through the PSN store are tied to your SEN account and the Vita can only have one account active. If you will be in Canada long-term, I suggest that you get a North American PS+ code with your Vita and create a North American (Canada or US) account. However, I don’t know if the NA Plus offerings are better than whatever Australian accounts get.
Additionally, I think the PSN stores will only accept credit cards from the same region (this is true for the US store), so it if you plan to make online purchases, take this into account.
DLC for some games is region-locked. For example: a region 1 (North America) copy of Street Fighter x Tekken will only work with DLC downloaded/purchased from a US or Canada PSN store.
