After Five Crummy Games, Marvel Wants No More Of Sega


“No current plans” is politespeak for “this ballgame is over.” And that was the reply given by Marvel’s senior executive responsible for video games production, when asked what the future holds for the publishing label and Sega.

“There are no current plans for additional Marvel games to be published by Sega,” T.Q. Jefferson told The Hollywood Reporter. Sega was behind the last two Iron Man games (Metacritic 42),Thor (39) Incredible Hulk) (55), and Captain America (rebounding to a 60).

“The biggest afflictions affecting movie-licensed games is the amount of development time and a strict adherence to retelling the story of the film in the form of a game,” Jefferson said. That’s probably why Marvel is looking more to Facebook and free-to-play MMOs to adapt its video games. Oh, and, Activision, too.
