The Bottom Line:
"Revolutionary"
I'm going to start off saying, pure amazement. I am at a lost for words when it comes to describing this game. First thing that comes to mine when you think of Wolverine is KICKA** and BLOOD. Up untill now, I didn't know of any game based off of a comic book or a movie that really delivered like everyone wanted. When they make a game based off of a movie its usually just for a quick buck. Also, they like to make it kid friendly. Well, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, is the exact opposite. You can tell by the way it looks and plays it wasn't made in a short amount of time for the movie release and it is most definitely not kid friendly. This game is blood, blood, and more blood. It is absolutely great!!!! I loved this game. The story line is somewhat but not really based off of the movie. It has parts of the movie in it but in their own way. If you didn't like the movie's story line then you will probably like the game's story. The gameplay is like a hack-and-slash, adventure type, kind of thing going on and its pure fun!!! The graphics are also good. Lets also, not forget the voice acting. They got Hugh Jackman to do Wolverine's voice, which makes it all even better, he does a great job at it too. This by far, is the best movie or comic based game ever. The campaign of the game is not too short but not too long. Their is no multiplayer, which is no surprise really. It seems like it could have been co-op, but the game is about Wolverine, and that would of taken away from the story. Their is replay value in it, just because it is so d*mn fun and addictive. The game is also, a must rent if you are just wanting to try it out. The achievement points aren't too hard but they may take more than a week to get, unless you just play the game 24/7. Overall, try this game out. Buy, rent it, barrow, it doesn't matter, play it. You will have fun playing this game.

    Basically this game takes a lot of ideas from God of War and uses them to great effect in the Wolverine universe. continue »
