At a Comic-Con New York panel, Marvel revealed that Konami will bring X-Men, its side-scrolling arcade beat-em-up from 1992, to the Xbox 360 and PS3 as a downloadable title. [Updated with the game's Comic-Con trailer, see inside.]
Fans of the game remember that you could play as one of six X-Men: Cyclops, Colossus, Wolverine, Storm, Nightcrawler, or Dazzler. After blasting through Sentinels and boss characters from the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, it was off to Magneto's Asteroid M to save Professor X and Kitty Pryde.
