This game is by no means perfect, but to be Superman and have the ability to play around in a huge virtual city is a lot of fun! Also on the 360 it is very pretty and the size of the city is amazing. It's like being a kid again and having your Mego Superman figure and playing Superman.
Loved the game and the shape it came in. The game is a very enjoyable game and I love to play it frequently. I was glad to be able to find it in such good quality.
Pros + A huge world to fly through with a few familiar faces & old enemies to fight. + A real sense of being Superman. Fly at dizzying speeds. Lift massive objects. Use unbelievable powers to save or destroy. + You can use cheat codes if you want to.
Cons - Lots of glitches, some frustrating moments running & flying, & some annoyingly hard enemies. - Missions are repetitive and can interfere with other things around the city you may want to do more. - No real depth after you get past flying through Metropolis as Superman. Not enough interaction with the city. - Graphics are smoother but not really an improvement over the Xbox except for being shinier.
Comments Fans have waited for a great Superman game for awhile. Superman Returns delivers an enjoyable ride as Superman that is not as frustrating as the games that have came before it but still lacks deliveriing the most complete experience. Some of the cutscenes look quite nice but most of the dialogue is cheesier than the movie. Any fan of Superman should love this game though.
Verdict A must have for any hardcore Superman fan but probably only a rental for the rest of the world. 3.5/5
One of the best games of the year!!! You can fly all over any part of the city and you have use of Superman's full arsenal of weapons. Finally a good movie comes to the video game.
i finally can live out my destiny ( dreams). i would recommend this to old comic book fans to young 'whipper-snappers' alike. just don't expect any chores to get done ( the world needs saving first).
If you haven't read my comments before I briefly said I was waiting for the game. Two weeks ago I finally received it. So far I like the challenges I am facing. The opening graphics are okay, I wished the title was a bit more enticing. The opening scene has Superman seeing a meteor shower aimed straight for earth. Jor El (superman) father tells him about his powers namely flying. Work on flying better and using your heat vision and cold breath effective if you want to advance further in the game. I am still trying to over come the meteor shower. Wish me luck. In short it is a challenging game with interesting twist and surprises. I will tell you more later if you are still interested.
