To begin this is kind of just a yap session so if that's not your kind of stuff this is your cue to leave.
First of all the episode is all kinds of crazy but the parts that were my favourite were every single time Gladiator appeared on screen.
I never watched the original series, but seeing him here really gave me a feel for what kind of character he is.
And I have to say I did not know his ingame playstyle is so in character for him lol.

The scene where the Princess's sister attacks her and a fight breaks out is one of the fun ones. The guards are attacking him with everything they've got and he's just tanking all the lasers and stuff and being so nonchalant about it. The one moment when he just charges into a bunch of the guards like a damn bowling ball is so funny. Also the scene before this one where he's talking with the professor is a good one too, gives you a look into his character.
Overall a great episode, and this is my very first time seeing the character in literally anything but I like him already.
This show has made me love the character of cyclops and gambit more than I imagined and it's the same thing with gladiator now, although I think this will be the only time we see him this season since the professor is returning to earth in the next episode.

    Kinda wish we'd seen more of the other Imperial Guards though.

    Really want Spider-Man '98 though...

    Enjoying Gladiator more in this single episode of '97 than I did in his apperances in the Dark Phoenix saga in the original. His design and fighting is so much cooler here it actually made me a fan of him.

    Now BRING ON MORE DEATHBIRD! And put her in the game too!!!

    1) glad prof x is alive & storm got her powers back.. her new looks similar to storm-x in the game.
    2) I really hope cable time travel & rewrite what happens at genosha( love to eee magneto & prof x conversation)
    3) that gladiator attack ( breathe attack) looked like hyperion sp1 in this game.
    4) hopefully we see the union of summer brothers ( cyclops, vulcan & havoc)

    1. if you watched the old show, you'd know he was alive. He left and went into space with Lilandra then.
    4. Havok appeared in the old show in the Iceman episode where X-Factor were introduced and neither of Cyclops and Havok knew one another. Although, they do seem to be retconning stuff about the team's history given that o5 pic they keep showing and yet the team didn't know Archangel/Warren when he appeared the first time.

    Wait, saying that, I think they did a flash back of the o5 in that Iceman episode, so they retconned that back then...
