Really enjoyed the game. Better than the first installment, hop there will be one for the PS3.
Rating: - Video Game
I don't play many video games, especially roll-playing games. This one was fun and I did get hooked. I had to finish the game. There are several characters to choose from and up to four players can play at once. The storyline was interesting. Also with cheat codes, you have more power.
Rating: - EXELLENT GAME
This is one of the greatest games of all time, and is a HUGE improvement on the first game if you ask me! I mean here you find health packs every 5 seconds I think they maybe even made this game TOO fun! I have beat it about three timesand I still think it rocks! Definitely worth 20 bucks!
this game totally rocks!!!!!
Rating: - game defective
I returned this product due to it being defective. overall the game is great, i purchased it from amazon due to what i thought was an error in my existing game. after purchasing a new copy from amazon, there is a game gliche in it which causes the game to freeze up @ a certain point. I spoke to cindy @ customer service who took me through the appropriate steps in returning a defective product. the game was mailed on 9/19 & should be received by you soon.
Rating: - Better than the alliance
In my humble opinion, the X-Men doesn't need an alliance with other marvel characters to defeat any enemy, why? if you've played Ultimate alliance i think that you've used wolverine, or at least you've it in your actual party of marvel ultimate alliance.
I used to read the X-Men a lot when i was a teenager and when i went to college, well, this is game has it, the same feeling when you read the comic book, it is as good as Wolverine's revenge and i can assure you it has a lot better plot than Ultimate Alliance.
The game is like Champions but with amazing cell shading graphics. The game is based on the comic books and not the movies and is a great addition to anybody's superhero game library. The game can be played in 1, 2, 3 or 4 players, and if you're playing your game alone and somebody comes in and wants to join, you can simply do it pausing the game and adding the control to the second, third or fouth player immediately and if that friend or family member has to go or simpley doesn't want to play anymore, you can pause the game and simply turn off the control to the player.
The game is long enough to keep you busy and fun enough to keep you playing.
Compared to the first game this has better graphics, better sound but equally good storyline, my game didn't freeze as the other people in this page and it works perfectly.
The good thing of this game is that you can switch from one character to another depending the situation, and you can use celebrities of the X-Men comic books, like Magneto or Toad.
If you like the X-Men or the marvel universe and action RPG games this is your kind of game.
If you've had a dissapointment as i did with marvel ultimate alliance and you think the game is over rated but you're afraid that this game will be a big dissapointment also, think again, this game is a lot better that the alliance, i can assure you that.
