The Merc-with-a-Mouth, Deadpool, Finally Gets His Own Video Game
If you’re a fan of comic books then chances are good that you’ve at least come across Deadpool once or twice. As a character, he’s famous for his quick wit and clever one-liners, as well as regularly breaking the fourth wall (which means he talks directly to the reader or, in this case, the player). He’s been seen before in video games, such as his hilarious appearance in Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions, but the Merc-with-a-Mouth is finally getting his own game courtesy of High Moon Studios.
If you’re one of the few people who aren’t familiar with the Deadpool character, the announcement trailer for the upcoming game does a good job at summing him up; as well as getting a good number of people, including me, hugely excited.

Deadpool is being developed by High Moon Studios and published by Activision, the guys behind the recently released Transformers: Fall of Cybertron. There hasn’t been a release date set yet but as soon as we know, so will you.

By day I play video games, test video games or just simply write about them. By night I fight crime on the streets of London as a masked vigilante known only to a select few ... damn SECRET identity. Could never get the hang of that.
I've been writing about video games for about 10 years now, and playing them for even longer, starting off with a Spectrum ZX passed down to me in about 1988. Yes, I used to play games that came on cassettes. Yes, they were AWESOME!
I've been writing for God is a Geek since October 2010 and loving every minute of it, aside from that I write for my own website and work as a video game tester for Testology. So, yeah, I'm pretty much living the life of a gamer, and I don't intend stopping anytime soon thank you very much.
Unless I run out of money, then we might have a problem.
