Very surprised that you dislike the Legends and Ultimate Alliance games. Considering the vast amount of Easter eggs, playable characters and missions you go on in each game, I would have thought it would tickle your fancy. I get that they are button mashers at times but it was cool crafting four member teams where each character could utilize their own strengths (flight, super strength, team buffs, long range attacks, or if you’re Moon Knight, Insta-kill da boss). I’m not upset though and if you didn’t care for them personally or found them too boring, I understand that.

3:06 I'm having a problem understanding this logic. In your Godzilla ps4 review you were complaining the game was too close to the source material. But in the X-Men legends and MUA games you have a problem with power scaling and should have been closer to the source material. I feel there some contradictions here.
@youtube-kit94504 жыл бұрын
My guess is that it isn't some dichotomy in which either completely adhering to source material or completely being away from the source material is the way to go, but it's a sweet spot you have to hit for every franchise in which playability and fun are the most important. Iirc, in Godzilla e.g. it was the problem that Godzilla being slow as molasses and lumbering around is how Godzilla was in the movie, but that translated into super sluggish bad gameplay. In the case of superheroes, nerfing superheroes down into oblivion to make them as strong as realistically way weaker superheroes also negatively impact playability and fun because you feel neutered af instead of feeling as powerful as a superhero in the comics. Basically, two cases of which going into either direction too far negatively impacted the gameplay and fun.

Legends 2 had a really good story and gorgeous cutscenes, but I remember two things about the gameplay: swapping out a dead Cyclops for Sunfire in the first stage and then never ever changing out team members the entire rest of the campaign; and I remember the combat (which is about 95% of the very long game) being so, so repetitive. I also remember not knowing who Deadpool was at the time.

It wasn't shallow though. For when it was released it had a lot of depth. More than most games nowadays have, certainly more than Ultimate Alliance, the next game in the series. It had a large roster of characters whom could be combined into teams for bonuses, each character had a long list of active and passive skills to allow for multiple builds that could be backed up by attributes and items, items which in the late game could make or break a build. The game wasn't a button masher either. You had a list of combos, there were quite a few different ones to choose from that had different effects at the end of the combos and you had a list of special moves you could swap between on the fly. Like I say, for it's time it was an insanely deep game with a laundry list of secrets and unlockables to add to the gameplay and to this day remains my second favourite game ever.

@PMbarbieri7 ай бұрын
Frozone from The Incredibles offers a good explanation to how his powers work, and he's basically the same as Iceman: he creates ice using the water molecules in the air and in his body, which means that if he's dehydrated or there's too much heat, like in a flaming building, he can't use his powers. Iceman works in a similar way, or at least sometimes does I believe, but in the game it's extremely exaggerated for the sake of gameplay.

Great review! You just earned yourself a new subscriber! I always liked this game. I’m glad you liked it for the most part (mind you, I’m referring to the console version of this game, not the god-awful hand-held version). Very underrated. I have it for my Xbox 360 and I have beaten it a bunch of times and unlocked every single achievement and collected every single Cerebro file. Wolverine was actually my favorite character to play cause he was just so much fun to play, but Nightcrawler came at a very close second. Iceman was easily my least favorite one to play cause for a long time I found his controls too confusing and his mission objectives too frustratingly difficult, but I eventually mastered playing him and got the hang of him. The story was fairly good and I love how it expanded upon the X-Men Cinematic Universe.

Nightcrawler's gameplay looks like what Jumper: Griffin's Story could have been if it were made by developers that gave a shit. If you ever need an easy target for a review check out Jumper Griffin's Story. It's based on that god awful movie from 2008 and it's one of the shallowest games I've ever played. I beat it in like 3 hours on the 360 and I got most of the achievements in the process. Considering the corners that get cut on some Wii ports I can only imagine how much worse that version might be, but considering how poorly made it was it might actually be similarly terrible.
