I should have clarified. They gave up developing and publishing games on their own. I can't remember where I read it, but they said it's the one industry they've never been able to get a good foothold in. Their just going to license from now on.

There is something comforting to me that Disney has admitted defeat in the video game space.
It's because they likely:
A) lock down too much poo poo because it doesn't accurately reflect their vision/characters/etc

Or

B) have unrealistic expectations and just prefer to cut and run when the winds change slightly.

A) is funny because the very Excellent Capcom NES games were sometimes a little loose with the characters. And B? Well, just license the games to good devs and let the rest take care of itself.

bleh, Marvel Heroes was a significantly worse gameplay experience on top of the usual lovely MMO baggage. Like I started it exactly because I wanted an arcade super hero beat em up like the previous Ultimate Alliance and X-Men Legacy titles and felt like I could deal with the usual MMO crap, but it did not deliver on part 1 of the premise. If they can bring it back to the feel of the earlier entries it'll be good, and if anyone can do that it's Team Ninja

Fun fact, in the comic, Bruce can see Clark trying to talk to him, but he can't hear it, because his metal cowl is sound proofed to protect him from the sound blast.

What no it doesn't. It's a game made entirely of bad and too long cutscenes (the fighting is also based on winning by interactive cutscene). The only "good" parts are watching scenes from Disney movies over again.

Bioware Austin already made Old Republic, and even the expansions for it aren't great.

Also they've got a new game coming (probably?) out this year from Respawn.

They did a What If issue about Osborn getting the Infinity Gauntlet and it was amazing. At first he uses it for world domination and to torture Spider-Man. Then he pulls his abusive father out of the past to show off how much of a success he is. His dad is understandably freaked out and calls him a monster. Osborn reacts by making him love him via the Gauntlet.

Thanos shows up to fight Osborn for the Gauntlet and fails, but brings up how forcing someone to love you is bullshit and isn't real love. Realizing that his father will never truly love him, he vanishes his dad from history out of frustration.

Then he suddenly realizes, OH WAIT, and ceases to exist, leaving the Gauntlet to float around space.
