The sequel to one of the best X-Men games, and it still holds up

Gameplay - There have been some improvements and changes since the first game. First of all and most apparent you can now use members of the brotherhood, however this comes at the price of missing members of the original game, such as Psylocke. Also there have been bonuses added such as secret characters, upgrades, and etc. Also a much wider variety of moves to choose from. (8)

Graphics - Hmm, still cell-shaded. While I'm not its biggest fan, It actually works well for this game, because I imagine otherwise it would become very easy to get lost in all the action, so it's a good thing they stand out. However It could have been better. Also the cut scenes are nice to look at, while some of the real time cut scenes... well... they can be strange at times... (8)

Sound - The voices are very well done, as are most of the sound affects. The only thing I guess I didn't like is all the grunting, since it becomes repetitive after some time. However some of the writing is good. "I'm bored, I'm really bored. Like the kind of bored you get when your playing golf". Also the exchange between Deadpool and Deadpool was very well done. (8)

Value - More reason to play this game longer now, also the online is a nice touch (8)

Tilt- A must for the mutant in all of us... or human juggernaut... or Iron Man... (9)
