Stan "The Man" Lee was present for a while to give his views on how the games are unleashing his beloved characters onto the fans in new, interesting & innovative ways. With him (to talk about X-Men Destiny), were Project Director of Silicon Knights, Jullian Spillane, Marvel VP of Games, TQ Jeffereson & GameSpot's Ricardo Torres. And to give their 2 cents were Jamie Chung (voicing Aimi) & Scott Porter (as Adrian- pictured above with Marvel correspondent Janna O'Shea). Milo Ventimiglia (Grant) couldn't make it.

The following are the main points discussed about the game:
*As you saw in the Choice trailer, the game revolves around the choices you make & allows you to join the X-Men (& be guided by Cyclops) or the Brotherhood (with Nightcrawler as your guide). You can change your choice during the game as well!
*According to Lee, the best part about the game is that "you get to choose if you want to be a good guy or a bad guy." (He was SO impressed with the game, that he stated "EAT YOUR HEART OUT BATMAN"! LOL)
*You get to pick your character & core powers. Then choose your mentors & combine their powers with yours. You can also mix & match powers. Throughout the game you unlock new powers. X-genes- mutant drugs that help augment your abilities, offensive, defensive & utility- also make the game more interesting!
*X-Men & X-Men: Legacy scribe Mike Carey worked with Spillane & his team to figure out the roster & continuity. They didn't just want to use top level characters but rather characters like Pixie, that "were representative of the world at that time."
X-Men Destiny is destined for a Sept 27 release this year. Catch ALL the panel details via this liveblog- especially if you want the low-down on the Spider-Man: Edge of Time game with soundbites from the cast & crew of both games!
