"Deadpool" is an upcoming third person action game based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name. The game is being developed by High Moon Studios, and is slated for release this Summer on the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360. Former "Deadpool" comic writer Daniel Way is working on the script and Nolan North is voicing the character.
It doesn't appear that the developers are watering down anything, with Deadpool's signature guns and swords still intact as well as a giant hammer and laser guns. Along with news of the release date—June 25— came the usual deluge of pre-order bonuses from various retailers. Here's a rundown:
