Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - This is not my favorite game.
I got this game after the Iron Man movie, I thought it would be like 20 missions. I was able to finish it in two days though. If you get a new iron man suit it is the same as the other suits. There's no check points. There's no free play. And you cant get the villain suits like iron monger.

I wouldn't recommend this game because of low replayability.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Another lame cash-in attempt
Whenever there's a big budget movie on the horizon, especially one adapted from a comic book, you can almost always bet on a video game tie-in being somewhere in the distance as well. Well, here's Iron Man, and yes, it is nothing else but another lame cash-in attempt that fails to do its comic and movie counterparts any kind of justice. Playing as 'ol shellhead, you take down wave after wave of baddies, with an occasional boss battle thrown in now and then for good measure. Naturally, what kills Iron Man is the fact that the game as a whole is a tedious bore. You have objectives, you take down the bad guys, etc, etc. The whole game is just so repetitive that it pretty much kills anything good about it. Combine this with some frustrating controls and disappointing graphics (and some just plain awful cut-scenes), and you get what we have here. There are some good points to be found, including the fact that the moments of flying around are pretty okay, there's unlockable extra armors, and film stars Robert Downey Jr. and Terrance Howard provide their own voices as well. All in all, whether you are a fan of the comic or the film, the Iron Man video game may be worth a look, but in the end, the game is best left on the shelf.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - great game!!!
Like i said it is a great game but there is alot of swearing and i dont like that. Other wise it is a great game the graphics arent bad but there not amazing either. I agree on the freedom thing you really dont get that much freedom but i can deal with that.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good solid gameplay - could have cleaned up the language
Bought this for my son for his birthday - here's the pros and cons:
PROS
* Solid gameplay, with great graphics and sound
* Flight controls take some getting used to (really a two hand exercise) but doubt any kid who spends much time on the Wii will have trouble adapting
* Gives a real sense of being in the movie and being Iron Man

CONS
* The language gets a bit rough for the "mild" language rating - always a rough point for me with games with an obvious kid audience - would have been soooo simple to eliminate the numerous questionable language moments from the heroes and villians in the game... For this point alone I am selling it back on ebay. Let's be real - we don't need "realistic" swearing in comic book games.
* limited ability to fly around - part of the fun of being a hero in these games is just flying around and being "super"
* controls could have a been a bit simlified - but maybe this was to appeal to the older crowd so it wasn't too simple... Certainly livable.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Fun, but upset from lack of freadom when flying around.
this game is a game that is not to easy and not to hard (when on medium) the game play is challenging but not to challenging. one thing that is very disipointing though is that you have a lack of freedom in the levels unlike the x-box 360 virsion where you get alot of freedom.

it is also sort of disipionting that there is a little bit more swearing than i would have liked to hear. basically if you churn the volume down and skip the clips than you should be fine.

in all this game is fun but it is disipointing about the freedom limits and the swearing problem.

(P.S. the advanced displyes are not as nice as the other systems.)
