Spiderman Joins Microsoft
News today that Microsoft has licensed all of Marvel's 5000 characters for online gaming. You think your boss is bad, try working with the X-Men for a while: that brainy-head thing has got to hurt!
This is Marvel's one and only entry into the Massively Multiplayer Online (MMO) arena, and they are not expecting a title out until 2008. By teaming with the big boys, Marvel has placed a safe bet. Microsoft also -- this strikes me as a much better deal than the Disney/cell phone deal we covered earlier this week.
It will be interesting to watch.
