| Review | Rating | Last Updated | The Truth about X-Men Legends...
Ok first of all I think this game hit all the important spots that a gamer/comic-book fan could have ever wanted. It was appealing to both people who knew about this crazy X-Men stuff and people who didn't. On with the review...
<br />
<br />I found the sound and gameplay to be easy and simple nothing out of the ordinary and nothing to difficult to understand. The storyline was even better and I realized this was the games strongest point. Mixing adventure/action with an RPG style worked very well in this title. Also being able to use and see so many different mutants was a nice touch.
<br />
<br />With X-Men Next Dimension I found it hard to catch combos and twirl my powers in any real effective way. X-Men Legends traded my anger for Next Dimension with joy for X-Men Legends... bottom line folks... buy it if you love the X-Men... rent it if you find them luke-warm in your heart. :) | 4 | 774 days ago | X-Men Legends was going in the right direction...
X-Men Legends was going in the right direction. It has cool playable characters, fun superpowers, and a spectacular storyline, but the gameplay is just way too flat and repetitive. All you do is walk into a room, kill people, break stuff, and sometimes use your powers to solve a "puzzle" (making a bridge, welding metal). There are no interactive mini-games of any sort and levels/events take place in the same locations over and over. The gameplay is exactly the same from beginning to end.
<br /> The graphics are the worst part of the game. They look hand-drawn and stiff. If you break an object, it simply disappears and a small cheap "shattering" effect happens. The sound is okay on some parts of the game, but ridiculous on others, like with my fav character Storm, whos lightning strike sounds like a low-volumed spark. And I hate how her tornadoes suck. All they do is lift things up. They rarely destroy or kill. Plus it's hard to attack people with them because anything makes them dissipate.
<br /> The camera is the worst part of the game. You see everthing from a diagonal angle, almost as if you're watching everthing from a ceiling. Speaking of which, most levels do not have ceilings. So all you see is the floor and the walls. The camera angle is very frustrating to play with.
<br /> Also, to pass the whole game, it takes 20 hours. I they the developers should have cut down on the hours and used that extra memory on better graphics, sound effects, and interactive levels.
<br /> I hope Avtivision makes X-Men Legends 3, but with state-of-the-art graphics, sound, music, and interactivity, including mini-games instead of flashbacks. | 4 | 774 days ago | a review from someoe who hasent played the game
looks cool i wish i had it,whos the best charecter?is there blood? | 5 | 774 days ago | Somthing To Look Foward to Alot During School
I loved this game and I only got it seven days ago! The controls are really easy, but have a lot of good combos. You choose a team of four X-men before every mission, and if one gets killed, and you have enough backups, you can switch it out for another X-Men. The leveling system is amazing, tons of abilities and stratigies. Also, when you get a kill for with one character, everyone (not just your current team) gets expeirince. Also, it warns you when a character is about to die, so you can heal him/her before he/she dies. That prevents the questions like: WTF? I thought I just healed him? When you really didn't. Well lets wrap it up.
<br />
<br />PROS:
<br />Amazing Level up system
<br />Really good and easy controls
<br />Great Co-Op system that lets someone joing right in without stopping the game
<br />Over Fifteen choosable mutants with all different things to say and do
<br />Tons of levels and secrets, but not those "impossible" secrets
<br />Good plotline
<br />Tons of purchasable abilities and Statistics
<br />
<br />CONS:
<br />Camera is difficult
<br />Cannot save whenever you want (Makes the game more challenging, and it also fits the gameplay style)
<br />Comic-Style Graphics (I liked them but some people might not, but it allows for those wham - wham lines when you beat the living daylights out of someone)
<br />Just too many cool X-Men, I had trouble choosing :) | 5 | 774 days ago | Stupid, stupid, stupid
What are you people, on crack. This was the worst piece of crap game I have ever played.The menus go 800 miles an hour making it impossible to do what you want. The graphics suck and when I die with no X-Men and I havent saved the game I have to start from the beginning. Mark my words, It SUCKS | 1 | 774 days ago |
