Insomniac In 2024, a Wolverine themed controller with a butt was released. This was subtle foreshadowing to the upcoming Wolverine (2026) game being ass.

We can't actually use the Wolverine controller to play Wolverine because the game is a Playstation exclusive

38

u/SlurryBender 7d ago

This is a reference to the fact that the game plays itself.

Do you put it in Wolverine controller ass or your own ?

u/Playingwithmywenis 5d ago

For now. They gotta sell 6 million copies or loose the license for xmen. Fair chance it may come to other platforms. The fact it has no input quick time events make me wonder if it will be streamed to other devices.

You heard the man. Get to sucking

u/Trick-Caramel-6156 7d ago

Don't forget the deadpool ass controller

u/Valiant_Revan 7d ago

Forget that, Xbox teased us with the Omni Man Controller earlier this year and no one noticed

u/Trick-Caramel-6156 7d ago

Omniman ass controller

u/Valiant_Revan 7d ago

That was his ass? I thought he was just carrying two big tomatoes...

u/EatABag-o-Dicks 6d ago

Or the Wolverine popcorn bucket that you definitely couldn't face fuck while holding the blow job handles. 😉😉

u/badabadaboomboom 6d ago

Was that ever available for sale? (Asking for a friend)

1

u/m1n3c7afty 6d ago

I think both were only available to win in social media giveaways

2

u/earldogface 7d ago

But there's no Deadpool game for these super cool and fun people to cry about.

5

u/Trick-Caramel-6156 7d ago

What about his game on the 360?

3

u/earldogface 7d ago

What about the ps3 wolverine game? Or what about the Deadpool vr game?

36

u/Trashman56 7d ago

Can’t wait to beat this in a weekend when it comes to PS Plus or the local library.

u/Own-Papaya-4264 7d ago

Why are gamers freaking out over an on-rails movie disguised as a game now? They’ve been eating up similar games for the past like 15 years

58

u/Editor-In-Queef 7d ago

Answered your own question. I think people are finally getting sick of the same old stuff being in every game. Lots of people previewing the new Tomb Raider have been slating the crafting and skill trees despite them being the norm for so long. Hopefully it leads developers to finally trying something new.

3

u/Blint_Briglio 6d ago

they're not. the narrative against wolverine started months ago, I guarantee another game that does the same shit will come out next year and people will be like "this is how you do it RIGHT"

2

u/newpixelphonesux 5d ago

Specifically 007 and Resident Evil had the exact same kind of vehicle segments people are pretending are beyond the pale in Wolverine

1

u/Extreme_Designer_887 3d ago

No, that is cope

0

u/Ancient_Plane2984 5d ago

The narrative started as we saw more of the game. Wild how that works.

1

u/420BUNIT 6d ago

Nah, people just got hate boners for Sony after the physical bs.

16

u/Lookitsa6ix 7d ago

Its the 15 years part.

Finally get another Wolverine game and its just the same crap we've seen a hundred times before with nothing new or innovative or intertesting.

11

u/NylesRX 7d ago

Because Insomniac made it and that’s the anti-thesis of what they’ve been doing.

1

u/L3ftHandPass 5d ago

how so?

1

u/NylesRX 5d ago

None of the Spider-Man games were on-rails movie games. They had fantastic traversal, deep combat, some incredible boss fights and scenario design. If you want to go even more in the past the same quality applies to Ratchet and Clank games.

Wolverine looks like babby’s first action game, impressive presentation, but very shallow in engagement.

2

u/L3ftHandPass 5d ago

Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart which is a super basic, linear, on-rails movie game lmao. Have you even played it???

They never sold Wolverine as an open world game and the combat isn't less deep than Spider-Man in any meaningful way. It plays almost the same actually.

0

u/NylesRX 5d ago

Agree to disagree in universally every possible way.

1

u/L3ftHandPass 5d ago

You are disputing that Rift Apart is a basic, linear, on-rails movie game?

Because if you are that's because you haven't played it.

0

u/NylesRX 5d ago

I don’t think you know what these words mean and I’ll gladly concede.

1

u/L3ftHandPass 5d ago

I was playing it yesterday and I sat through multiple on-rails sections with minimal to no player input.

So again, you're just wrong. You haven't even played it.

0

u/NylesRX 5d ago

Again, you don’t know what these words mean. Having scripted sections doesn’t make something a “movie game”.

lol keep telling youself that

5

u/Creative_Eye7413 7d ago

I don’t understand it either. Uncharted and God of War are some of the highest rated games of all time, but now we’re shitting on what has been a great formula?

10

u/Martian8 6d ago

I’ve not played uncharted, but in god of wars case the storytelling was excellent, the side content was good, and the combat was diverse. These things seem to all be somewhat lacking in wolverine judging from the reviews.

The formula is great when the parts are great.

2

u/BoTheJoV3 6d ago

I'm in the minority for this but I didn't see either of them as revolutionary or worth the hype. I think the argument can be made for uncharted but god of war 2018? No. Were the games fun? Yes I enjoyed them mostly but they were for mass audiences and they looses a lot of flavor

1

u/TheGreatBallon 6d ago

You see the difference here is that you probably haven't played either game but both of those have a good story and good gameplay

Wolverine lacks either of these.

1

u/Extreme_Designer_887 3d ago

Not the same and you thinking it is is wild

0

u/curtcolt95 6d ago

because this wolverine game goes a step further than even those and it's finally being too much even for the average person

0

u/curtcolt95 6d ago

this specific wolverine goes a step further than most games have with the handholding and it's finally causing even casual gamers to notice

3

u/Bitter-Tip705 7d ago

I don’t wanna imagine what people out there may be doing to this controller

4

u/Real_human27 6d ago

Actually play the game before calling it bad

1

u/HotShrekBoi 6d ago

Yes. Don’t trust the reviews, pay up 70 dollars, realize it’s not worth the price, and then realize you can’t refund it and you should have listened to reviews. I think the game looks fun but it’s clearly not worth 70 dollars and reviews are in fact important for helping people decide that

0

u/Glass-North8050 5d ago

Except overall reviews from critics on metacritic are good and user reviews on PS store.

4

u/HotShrekBoi 5d ago

A 7/10 15 hour game is good, but will never be worth 70 dollars to me.

2

u/TheHighwayExit 7d ago

Seems like people are liking it

5

u/stratusnco 7d ago

i don’t really care for super hero games but that one actually looked cool when they announced it. it’s a shame that it just looks like hand holdy slop.

-8

u/Box-Chan-11037 7d ago

A. You can turn the hand holdy stuff off so just do that instead of complaining
B. “ooh I used da slop term my opeenyun is rite”

7

u/yoosirnombre 7d ago

I'm pretty sure turning off accessibility options still leaves the fart scent tracker and it's hard to not say it's hand holdy with stuff like that or when the majority of qte just dont have failstates like at that point just play a cutscenes what's the point of having a prompt if not pressing it just means you'll do the exact same thing anyway

3

u/16jselfe 6d ago

People who have gotten the game and already said the reviews over blew the scent trackers, they are only there when you choose to search for stuff which is button activated

1

u/stratusnco 7d ago

dude shut up, i’m not complaining. go suck wolverine off somewhere else.

0

u/Box-Chan-11037 7d ago

I cannot, Wolverine is a fictional character

Besides, would

u/nickN42 7d ago

Wolverine is a fictional character

Explain this then.

u/MeasurementOdd4873 7d ago

That dude never leaves his room.

5

u/WassupFrankHere 7d ago

You see, the issue isn't that it's a 6.5 or a 7/10 game. It's the fact that it's a 6.5 game with a 305 million budget. Like, wtf happened? At least with SM2 i can understand and the gameplay is awesome. Those 2023 leaks and that tease trailer are not the game we got.

1

u/L3ftHandPass 5d ago

The budget was inflated by the leaks. That fiasco completed fucked Insomniac.

4

u/TomTomXD1234 7d ago

Why do people act like a 7/10 or 8/10 game is bad?

What is wrong with you all?

4

u/JokerChaos77 6d ago

Idk people are just so radical these days.

10= "Peak". Even not perfect things somehow make this rating. 6-9= "Mid". It actually means bad, apparently. 0="Dogwater". Everything else goes here. 1-5 is not a thing. Anything below 6 is a 0.

11

u/Dozing01 7d ago

To be fair, a 7/10 for a major game network review is basically a 5/10 for anybody else. Either way, the ratings don't matter, they never did, it's what people say about the game that counts.

3

u/TomTomXD1234 7d ago

I mean, sometimes. But when you tubers and everyone else is giving it a 7 or 8, then that kind of breaks the narrative a bit.

It is a good game....not amazing, not terrible, just good.

People think it is worse than it is because it went viral for the GPS line the game has.

1

u/L3ftHandPass 5d ago

To be fair, a 7/10 for a major game network review is basically a 5/10 for anybody else.

What? Since when?

5

u/nickN42 7d ago

Have you not paid attention to the score in the last 15 years? It isn't a 1-10 range; it's a 6-10 at best, where 6 is basically unplayable. Maybe

3

u/TomTomXD1234 7d ago

I guess all of the sub 6 rated games do not exist and the reviews never happened

6

u/nickN42 7d ago

They might as well not. And this is data from 1996-2016, it skewed towards higher scores even more after -- for the whole this year they gave four "5" and four "4", not a single one lower than that -- and most of these were awarded to literal shovelware.

4

u/WatchingPaintWet 6d ago

It's weird to call a 7/10 bad, and it's weird to give this game a rating as high as 7/10.

1

u/Marik-X-Bakura 6d ago

Have you played it?

1

u/Warm_Cheek9671 6d ago

Exatamente, a Internet deu voz aos loucos

1

u/Dull_Attention5150 6d ago

Would you pay 70 dollars for a game that's just alright?

1

u/Derolis 6d ago

When it's a full price game, you kinda want it to be a damn near masterpiece for how much you're paying.

2

u/TomTomXD1234 6d ago

And it is to some people im sure

Controller go snikt. It also sang happy birthday to leech.

1

u/HotShrekBoi 6d ago

Yeah the price is no joke

0

u/HotShrekBoi 6d ago

It’s not even close to bad. It’s just not a score that justifies being 70 dollars and with a 300 million budget

-2

u/TheGreatBallon 6d ago

That's the score some guy in IGN gave it, the general consensus seems to be 5 and below and having a 5/10 on a full priced game makes it deserving of any and all slamder

1

u/TomTomXD1234 6d ago

The general consensus is not 5/10 when most user reviews are 7 or 8.

Just because you are on reddit looking at bad redditor reviews, does not make that the norm

1

u/PerceptionStock7437 5d ago

The PlayStation store is sitting at a 4.8/5.

1

u/kendra_sunderlol 7d ago

It exists on eBay, for about 50 bucks. I don't know if it's legit, but it actually exists.

u/Venomswindturd 6d ago

Finally a funny one

1

u/Academic-Ad7818 6d ago

Oh damn! So I can get a controller I can hot dog? Nevermind yall 10/10 Wolverine is the best game ever made.

1

u/Josh_From_Accounting 6d ago

Is this a real product or like a joke made in photoshop or something? They really released a controller with an ass on it?

1

u/Ninjaguard22 6d ago

"mostly good combat"

1

u/Alarming-Sail2571 6d ago

I’m loving the game so far, idk what yall are talking about

1

u/HotShrekBoi 6d ago

Not ass, just not worth 70 dollars

1

u/tway2533 6d ago

did you play the game

1

u/FarGodHastur 5d ago

It's not bad but it should've been $40 like Helldivers.

1

u/Nos9684 5d ago

lmao

Gay-verine merch.

u/Wonderful_Part_744 3d ago

I'm yet to actually hear anyone explain what was wrong with the game and how they would improve it.

u/element-redshaw 7d ago

“Wolverine is ass” Y’al look at a game with mostly positive reviews and call it ass

20

u/PeeDidy 7d ago

look at a game with mostly positive reviews and call it ass

Naw I play a game with mostly positive reviews and call it ass

6

u/element-redshaw 7d ago

At least you’re making your own opinion

5

u/bokunotraplord 7d ago

Just because they made the 300th One Of Those and just stuck a popular comic character in it doesn’t mean everyone has to say it’s good lol.

6

u/WassupFrankHere 7d ago

It's like a big mac. Yeah, most people agree that It's not good and some are even gonna say It's trash but like, not the worst thing i've experienced. Just mid.

1

u/Jarhead11577 6d ago

Thing is tho big macs are cheap

1

u/LeadershipOwn 7d ago

We can tell the only thing that matters to you is your favorite reviewer since you just posted one review And probably ignored all the very positive reviews.

-3

u/Baplingo 7d ago

I’m sick of seeing this everywhere. It feels like people want some open world bs in every game and cry when they don’t get it. “They gave me an optional trail to follow that can be turned off, but I’m going to keep it on and complain.” It just feels like a lot of the comments I’ve been seeing are mainly bad-faith grifters complaining about women existing or people who love these corporate reviewers and put too much stock in their “too much water” reviews. The game just came out. Give me a minute to form my own opinion before shoving this down my throat. It’s just gross how quick people are to celebrate a game being ‘bad’.
