THE GOOD:
-great graphics
-lots of x-men to choose from

THE BAD:
-bosses are too easy
-gets very tedious after aout 20 minutes or less
-not enough levels

SUMMARY:
This is is good while it lasts(about 20 minutes)worth a rental for x-men fans.but it just gets very boring after a while and you often have to wait for enimies to get into the screen.And the bosses are way too ez all you have to do is hit them multipile times until you max out the mutant power bar then unleaash your power

THE GOOD:
Excellent graphics and sound.
Includes loads of characters from the series - always
a bonus for the obsessed x-men fan!

THE BAD:
inadequate control, gameplay seems just a bit too tedious with limited moves for each player.
As an avid X-men fan i am truly disappointed!

SUMMARY:
The one added bonus I found with this game was when I used a cheat cartridge(available at about Ł20/25)
with the cartridge I was able to play as Gambit! - easily the best character in the game as his moves had a bit more pizzaz!!

Summary:
Dont buy this for the gameplay which isnt bad but it aint worth forkin out the Pounds/euros for.
(Check out jackie Chan for an extra dimension in gameplay!)

Do buy this if u really like the x-men and dont give a monkeys about the gameplay.

THE GOOD:
It gave hours of fun and entertainment. Heck Im still trying to beat it with the other people besides Wolverine.

THE BAD:
Some what frustraiting at parts but hey then it woudnt be fun without a challenge.

SUMMARY:
Graphics are pretty good. Game play aint to bad either. Addictive or maybee thats because I like X-Men.

But All-and-All its a game worth your money and time.

I have already beat it with Wolverine and am this close to beating it with Cyclops. [-]
Again it is defanetly worth your money.

GBA  X-Men: GameBoyAdvance On! 4.0

THE GOOD:
Hey it's the X-Men! What more could you ask for? Excellent and unbelievably smooth animations, good control, and I hear over 40 of our favorite mutants.

THE BAD:
Somehow doesn't grab me. I used to enjoy games like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in the arcade, and it could be that I'm just getting to old and stodgey to enjoy hack and slash.

SUMMARY:
Gameplay, control, graphics and even storyline are pretty good in this one. I have played some of the X-bombs in the past and this one is deffinately worth a look. Unfortunately for me, hopefully not you, I was unable to really get into this game.

It plays almost exactly like the old arcade teenage mutant ninja turtles game used to play. And I can tell you that machine ate a lot of my quarters. However this game hasn't been as enjoyable for me. Perhaps it's the lack of other players to play with on the GBA. NOTE: YOU CAN PLAY STORY MODE WITH 4 PLAYERS.

That has to be one of the coolest things about this game, in fact I was thinking 3.5 for the score but I'm going to bump it up to 4.0 because of that. I bet with a bunch of your pals and a link cable (unforutnately eveyone needs their own copy of the game) that this game would be a blast.

In addition there are other multiplayer modes such as a VS mode where you take your character and fight your friends (sorry this one doesn't have a vs. computer mode it has to be human vs. human).

To answer a questioned posed earlier, you do have the option of choosing your x-man at the beginning from Wolverine, Cyclops, Storm and Rogue. Later on I believe other options will be unlocked.

All in all this is a pretty fun title that because of the reviewers own creeping years problem (old age syndrom) doesn't play like it might have a few moons ago.

Go out and check this one out for yourself!
