The X Men Retrospective is LIVE!
Added 2024-10-06 17:01:03 +0000 UTCAfter what might have been the worst four months of my life - the fruits of my labour are finally out there.
The X Men Retrospective is LIVE over on YouTube
It really is quite a crazy video and I'm not sure it would have turned out like this had I not spent so long recovering from various surgeries - but this is what tumbled out of my brain so it's what I'm putting out there!
It of course touches on virtually every corner of the franchise from movies to cartoons to comics - but really this video is about the history of the licensed game itself. Why did companies start using their IP like this and how has the practise grown as the industry changed?
I think it's likely my most information dense video yet so hopefully it holds up to a few re-watches and turns people onto some of the hidden gems this series has been hiding away.
I hope you all enjoy it and it lives up to the long wait!
Much love,
Matt

I was really happy to discover Deadpool was more of an animated movie split up by gameplay - it was a perfectly tonic to all the nonsense that came before it! Hope you enjoyed the watch!

2024-10-13 00:16:45 +0000 UTCThis has been amazing mate! Love that a slightly odd Deadpool game takes the edge off playing so many of the games, take it easy and bask in the glory so many people are now stuck with the cartoon theme rolling around in their heads :)

2024-10-07 13:25:49 +0000 UTCThat's really awesome to hear. I kinda went a bit mad with the industry/developer context in this one but I just kept finding interesting little tidbits. Hopefully people enjoy it!
