PowerUp Heroes Trailer Is Super Absurd

This Summer Ubisoft will be giving Microsoft avatars everywhere superpower. Which begs the questions: if everyone has super powers are they really that super?

In PowerUp Heroes, players will unlock a number of super suits that grant their avatar a variety of different super powers. Flavors include a Necromancer suit, which allows players to control a skeleton army, and a Mentalist suit, which gives players the power to break into their enemy's mind – whatever that means. After facing off against each other in Kinect-controlled battles, players will be able to win other hero’s battle suits. PowerUp Heroes will be out this June.

Check out the game’s announce trailer below. Just don’t question why there is a large TV or a Kinect in this fast food restaurant’s break room.

The superpowers are all in the Suit.

The Best power has to be invisibility so you can play pranks on people and so you can sneak into the Ladies Bathroom XD

Okay, it's official. Ubisoft makes the worst commercials ever,this is worse than the whole "Your Mom Hates Dead Space" from EA.

But why is there a large T.V and a Kinect in this fast food restaurant's break room?

Heh, looks decent. For some strange reason i liked the games cover but the name is so generic.

The only way anybody would enjoy this is if you get rewarded with MS Points. So yeah... Everybody's ideal game is still not made yet. :(

Ooops. Almost forgot to mention, What the hell kind of trailer was THAT?
