Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Don't use a 2 player co-op unless both of you are equals!!
This game is a greater improvement compared to the previous title. Your characters move much quicker, your mutant powers are unlimited, the graphics are a little better, and the difficulty is fair with the gameplay. This game definitley stood the test of time and is also better than Mutant Apocalypse for Super NES. You go through several levels fighting your way through armed ninjas, Acolyte soldiers, pre-historic reptiles, savage land mutants, phalanx robots and clones and the difficulty rises as you move on, so if you made it that far, you've been dared to face pure torture so plan wisely. Whatever you do, do not use a 2 player co-op unless your partner is as skilled and as fast paced as you because not only the overall gameplay slows down, but getting ahead will be difficult if he/she sucks. Like the previous game, the many obsticles you must face is not designed for a two player co-op. This isn't Ninja Turtles or Contra, so you can't mess up if you dare to use the 2 player co-op.

You have the original lineup: Cyclops, Wolverine, Nightcrawler, and Gambit. Gambit and Cyclops' mutant powers are weak and so are their jumping, but their speed is up to par. Wolverine and Nightcrawler stand out from all the characters because they can climb and crawl on walls and ceilings, can jump high, and are the quickest characters, not to mention Wolverine's strong mutant attack and healing factor (if you wait a few minutes when your health is running low). There are three new mutants in the roster. Psylocke has the highest jump, best ranged attack, and strongest mutant power attack(unfortunatley robots are immune to her psychic knife). Beast's regular attacks and mutant attacks are the strongest, but his speed is not up to par. Both Psylocke and Beast can stick onto walls, but can't crawl like Wolverine and Nightcrawler. As for Magneto, if you think it is easy street to finally control one of the most powerful mutants in the world, think again. To balance out the rest of the characters, Magneto was designed to be the slowest character in the game of which he has only two weak attacks (projectles only), but he can float on command. As I recall, he's only useful for one level (which is the Apocalypse level for obvious reasons).

This game is worth adding to your genesis collection and so far one of the best Marvel Comics licensed games for a 16-bit system. Just becareful and take this game seriously cause its hhhhaaaaaarrrrrrrrrdddddddddd, but fun!!!


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A bit cartoony but a really awesome video game!
The first X-Men game is a classic but I also say the same for the Clone Wars video game.

The levels are even more complex than those on the first one and the music is even better as well.

My favorite level is the final one with the spinning discs that detach from the ceiling and explode on impact. The other favorite is one where the guy has to fight bad guys and then open up the floor opening to advance. What was really hilarious is when you pull the switch when there are still bad guys, the bad guys just simply blow up! So funny! The graphics are slightly cartoony but are really great too.

This game has a special place in my memory and hope that they re-release this on computer someday to play.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - One of, if not the, best comic licensed 16-bit game ever
When one looks through the history of 16-bit video games, they will notice the unbelieveable number of comic-licensed side scrolling beat 'em ups (Spider-Man, Batman, Spawn, and the X-Men among others; funny because most of them were from Acclaim), most of which all played the same and really didn't offer much in the terms of fun and replayability. Sega's original X-Men game was an exception that captured some of the intensity of the comic and Fox cartoon, and its' sequel X-Men 2: The Clone Wars also excells above most of the other comic licensed games. You can choose to play as Beast, Cyclops, Gambit, Nightcrawler, Psylocke, and Wolverine, and after defeating Magneto on Asteroid M you get to play as him as well (and he is the best character in the game). The levels are huge and expansive and include Siberia, Asteroid M, the Amazon jungle, and the Phalanx clone laboritories. The bosses are tough and range from Apocalypse, Brainchild, Tusk, a Sentinel brain, clones of the X-Men, and the huge rampaging Brood beast that chases after you in the final level. The characters are nicely animated and are large, pixelated, and colorful and resemble they're comic counterparts. The control scheme is simple, and the background music is actually great (and that is saying something considering the Genesis didn't have the best sound chip in the world) and the difficulty will make you come back and play it again and again. All in all, if you still have your Genesis and are an X-Men fan then find this game quick, or if you still have this hold on to it.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - OFF THE HOOK GAME
lOVE this game simple you like X-men then .....get this game you gotta get it ......man the Graphics are nice too


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A great game
This game is cool so much better than the first one. You go through all these levels.( I hate the level where everything is blowing up around you and you have to get out before time runs out) The best thing about this game is that you get Magneto
(the strongest mutant in the known world) on your side, and it's really easy to beat him too, but once you get him you'll have no problem beating this game. A great sequel to an even greater series.
