I enjoyed the first X-Men legends game quite a bit, and wasn't sure if I wanted to try the second one, thinking it might be a "same old thing stuffed in a new package" thing. No. This game is awesome. Your character's powers just feel a lot heavier, and you have some really cool ones, like Juggernaut's rush attack and his hit attack where he just get bigger and faster as you smack on your enemy. I loved Scarlet Witch's power to turn enemies into crates. I just had a great time switching between characters, using mutant powers all over the place, and just generally putting the smack down on everybody. Also, this game was a bit tougher than the last one, it was actually challenging in most placed, which is what makes this type of a game. The unlockable characters are cool, it adds alot of replay value, and of course your characters can keep leveling far beyond your first playthrough of the game. If you enjoy RPG's and beat-em-ups, this is a no brainer to buy.
