Disappointing follow-up to Rise of Apocalypse [Posted on 2006-05-22]
The game is boring and somewhat difficult to navigate. The characters don't even move their lips when they talk (how 15 years ago is that?),there are really no items to collect along the way, and the missions seem kind of pointless. It is by no means as engaging as Rise of Apocalypse, the story is kind of stupid too. The characters don't have that many powers, and there are very few features to the game. I LOVE X-MEN in general, movies, comics, the whole bit, and I hope they come up with another game in the near future that is way better than this one.
I don't get how this could have happened, the game was made by the same company that made the X-men 2.
Now if the movie sucks too, I'll have wasted the past 6 months waiting for both the game and the movie. Oh well.

This game STINKS! [Posted on 2006-06-01]
Boy, I'm glad I didn't buy it. I played it at a friends house and that is all I needed. This is probably one of the worst games I've ever played. You can only be Wolverine, Nightcrawler, which are the best characters, and then there is Iceman(?). The gameplay is messed up, the controls are messed up, and just the whole game in general sucks! Don't waste your money on this horrible game like my poor friend did. Get X-Men Legends 2 instead.

Don't waste your $40 [Posted on 2006-06-08]
I bought this game after seeing X3 mainly because I was curious as to what happened to Kurt in the third movie. Well, I did learn what happened to him, but wasted $40 doing it. The graphics are terrible--like anime cartoons from the 80s, only worse (in that the movement/speaking is just lacking). My boyfriend and I beat this game in 3 days, with less than 20 hours of total gameplay. I might like it more if I could play ONLY as Nightcrawler, and not have to switch characters, since he has the best moves IMO, but that's not the case. I did enjoy it while I played it, which is why I gave it 3 stars for fun. But it was over way too quickly, and I feel it was a waste of money, so it gets 2 stars overall.
