X-Men Origins: Wolverine Pre-Order Details (+Trailer)
Written Tuesday, March 10, 2009 By Alan Pettit

If you pre-order X-Men Origins: Wolverine from Gamestop, you'll snag a DLC code for the following content:

  • The Dismemberment Room: "Using a control panel, this room lets players select various limbs and body parts on a holographic soldier. Once the selections are locked in, the soldier appears in a tiled room viewed through a glass wall. The selected limbs are severed with spectacular results."
  • The Environmental Kill Room: "This large room features small set-ups of each of the various environments found within the main game. All of these environments contain sharp objects on which Wolverine can impale his enemies. By pushing a red button, players can teleport in a group of soldiers and hurl them against the sharp objects to see them creatively skewered."
  • The Ladder Challenge Room: "Pushing a red button will cause a group of enemies to beam into the room. Each time the red button is pushed, the enemies get tougher and more numerous, laddering up the challenge for Wolverine."
  • The Custom Combat Arena: "This huge space lets players select any combination of enemies from within the game, beam them into the arena, and attempt to defeat them. Face ten hulking Leviathans or a blend of towering W.E.N.D.I.G.O. Prototypes, Machete Champions, and Machine gunners."

And here is the game's official trailer:

 

After all the disappointments with video games based off movies based off comic books, I'm really trying to not get excited anymore, but this does look promising...

I can't be excited about this game because the movie itself is going to piss me off!

It doesnt look that bad, the bit on the rope bridge was quite cool, hopefully it will be better than Iron Man and Hulk games.

Agreed - it looks like it has promise... but then so do so many games... that coupled with the fact its a movie tie-in and therefore immidiately hindered - im not getting too exicted until i hear more.

History is against titles such as these. But, there are a few things that caught my attention as "different" from previous movie titles. He seems to be using a Gears styled cover system at a couple of points, as well as a human shield. This could be good.

It's pre-order bonus. Kinda like the Red Hulk for that game but this isn't on the disc.
I hope this game is good though. I want to use deadpool.

lol @ Zenquen (#29). Good save!

I'm gonna rent this, most def. I'm a sucker for X-Men or Wolverine stuff (or Spider-Man). I enjoyed the last Wolvie-specific game, even though it had it's "I HATE YOU!!!" moments. We'll see though.

Yeesh, you're probably right. We're gonna get something wacky like X-Men Origins: Psyloche, played by...Pamela Anderson?! NOOOOOO!!! Well...maybe if it's better than Barb Wire. >_

Yeah I'll play it cause I love Wolverine... and it looks like it has promise, but like everyone else, I'm going to go in with low expectations and hopefully be surprised. For some reason, I kept getting flashbacks of the Conan game.

well if u want more info read the ign articles on the combat, the healing system and the high level of violence, this game is gonna be rated M. Sweet. Honestly this is the first movie comic book tie in game that actually shows promise.

until I see a game play trailer I'll stay undecided but I'm sure ill end up renting it anyways, hope its as good as Web of Shadows(great Marvel based game) but then again, that wasn't based on a movie.

I bet everything in the trailer is part of a once in a game quick time event or a cutscene.
