Marvel Universe Online on shaky ground

If you were looking forward to the release of Marvel Universe Online, sit down and grab a box of tissues because we have something to tell you. It looks like it’s not going to make it to release - to quote a source it has been “in the shitter for a LOOOONG time.”

We are hearing stories of looking like “Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, Running at 5 fps” and the design team fractionating over the fighting system and other gameplay elements. Perhaps one of the oddest pieces of information is that the Xbox 360’s keyboard attachment was designed for Marvel Universe Online. Microsoft decided to launch it to recoup some of the losses incurred by the game.

Inside sources say that the demise of the game should be announced within weeks.
