SNIKT! SHKOW! BOOM! BAMF!
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.
I'm a HUGE X-Men fan and found this game to be very exciting and enjoyable. The storyline definitely gets props from me. Usually you get a mediocre story coming with a video game, but not this story!! Loved seeing the Brotherhood team-up with the X-men versus Apocalypse, Mr. Sinister, and his army. The cameos were awesome, with some including Pyro, Kitty Pryde, Destiny, Sebastian Shaw, Emma Frost, Stepford Cuckoos, Alpha Flight (James Hudson MacDonald), Ka-Zar, Sauron, Beast, Lady Deathstrike, Blob, Forge, and many others!
The gameplay is the funnest part of the game. I had fun using Cyclops's optic blasts, teleporting Nightcrawler and hearing BAMF!, kinetically charging playing cards, hearing Wolverine go SNIKT!, and smashing Sentinels with Juggernaut and Colossus. This game acts and feels like an RPG too. You can level up, buy/sell X-items, talk to NPCs, and more. The sound was also very enjoyable: Most of the voices matched the character, Patrick Stewart's voice is Professor Xavier, and hearing each character's power sounds clash sounded great.
There are tons of areas with Xtraction points to save your progress. The downside to the game, however, is the slow load times. But the good thing is that each area is fairly large, so you won't have to constantly move to one area to the next waiting for it to load. A nice extra is the online play. So if you know a friend who has this game, call them up and ask them to practice in the Danger Room with you!
This game really grabbed my attention, and I enjoyed it very much.
Highly recommended. 5/5
