X-Men Destiny trailer

With the exception of the Saturday morning cartoons, X-Men was never a big part of my childhood. A large part of that was that I didn't read comic books, so my interaction with the series was limited to once a week at most.

Despite that lack of intimacy, X-Men is one of my favorite superhero series. The characters are diverse and interesting, the plot (from what I know of it) is fun, and the three movies were very entertaining (despite my crushing disappointment that Gambit was not in them). So when this new trailer for X-Men Destiny hit the web today, I was intrigued.

From the looks of the trailer, the game will allow you to create your own mutant and insert him or her into the X-Men world. If that ends up being the case, this game jumps to the top of most anticipated games.

I've seen some concerns that Destiny will be an MMO, but with Marvel Universe Online around the corner, I think we can safely put those fears to rest.
