THE GOOD: + Wolverine + Music & the story + Perfect for X-Men/Marvel fansTHE BAD: - Not the most original genre for a game based from a comic - Graphics aren't so good SUMMARY: Like Enter the Matrix, X2 Wolverine's Revenge, to be fair, was created to tie in with the movie. Unlike Enter the Matrix, it's actually good and includes characters you can relate to.
The story follows back into Wolverine's (aka Logan) past (in the film, he occasionally has flash-backs to this), where William Stryker had created him back at Alkali Lake. Included in the game are some of Wolverine's biggest arch-rivals, Sabertooth, Juggernaut & Magneto, which you all get to fight in the game. But one cool touch is how you can activate Logan's mutant senses to find enemies lurking around, thus killing them with a 'Stealth Strike'.
The music in the game is pretty atmospheric, and it's neat how the game is with the movie. Unfortantly the graphics are a bit dull at times which lets this game down slightly. Another bad is that when you compare it to other Marvel games, it's not that different. I like this game a lot, and I'm sure X2 fans & action game fans will love it too.
Rating: 4.2/5 |
