I enjoyed this game. Great music, decent graphics, and neat storyline. Only real complaint is the repetition of enemies used. Some levels only feature one or two types at most, disguised as palette swaps.

The Superman arcade game is still probably the best one, especially 2 player as you get to play as a funky red colored Supes. That and the sweet tinny version of the movie theme. This game was a rental for me back then, but man, it was SO friggin' repetitive. I'd say if it was half as long as it is, it would have been a much better game. As is, I just got sick of it and never finished it. I did appreciate it having some obscure DC characters, though, like Rambeau and Clawster.

This is a tough game. But it's a pretty good game. What I find interesting is that so many haters say, "Superman is overpowered. He can just do anything. It's an easy win. The game would be over in 2 seconds." However, this game debunks those hater claims because Superman struggles to win in this entire game. The level of difficulty is high. If Superman was overpowered (as the haters claim), then playing as Superman should be an easy win. But in fact, there is no easy winning in this game.

For many years now, the real reason everyone thinks that all the Superman video-games suck is because none of them "capture the spirit of the character". Now, I'm not a programmer, but to tell you the truth, a game that captured the spirit of Superman would be really boring as hell. Here's what a real Superman game would be like: You fly around beating up everyone and not taking any damage, then Lex Luthor shows up with a load of Green Kryptonite, and you automatically lose. The End. Does that sound like a fun game? No, it doesn't. I understand that people think a game where you get to be the real Superman would be fun, but it's not possible. A video-game needs to have difficulty, and you need to be able to lose. Of course, if you *REALLY* want to feel like Superman, then get a Game Genie, Action Replay, or Game Shark, put in an invincibility code, and presto, you're the invincible, *REAL* Superman, and all the fun and challenge is gone.
