My First X Box Game [Posted on 2006-11-06]
This XBOX 360 is yet another update on the b bit Nintendo. The graphics are great compared to Nintendo, Sega, N64 and better than the now obsolete old X Box. You get to play 3 X Men characters at the beginning- Wolverine, Iceman and Nightcrawler. Wolverine's claws make him good at combat and he can also regenerate. So as far as the characters go, this is pretty decent representations of the X men and their different powers. Nightcrawler is worse at combat but can teleport, which makes finding things on his more difficult missions easier. Iceman can shoot ice. The main problem is, the game while challenging, is too easy the first few levels. While it may take 2, 3, 4 or even 5 tries, I just put in the game yesterday and already beat 4 levels on it. I needed to go online and get a wallthrough for this I was lost on one of the Nightcrawler missions so, yes it is challenging, but a bit too easy for experienced gamers who grew up with Sega and Nintendo, etc. I was using Castlevania and Morrowind as my standard for judging more recent games and compared to those it is about the same. It is simply too easy for veteran gamers like myself to pick it right up and beat earkly levels on what should be an extremely difficult game, based on the daus of Arcade games. On arcade games it would take a good 20 bucks worth of quarters a pop to beat these X Men or Mortal Kombat type fighting games- this is just too easy. I'll bet I'll beat the game in one month, tops. But it is fun to play as different X Men characters and to use their powers in a role playing like session, making it more convenient to hack away in a mission oriented fighting game. While the enemies of the X Men on this game have put me down to really low healh, with the regenerate feature you just take cover and you're back to full health. Again, it's too easy to just jump right in on this new hi tech system and beat early levels. As a whole the new X box is just like the previous version just better graphics and more expensive. It should only be a few months before regular X box falls by the wayside just like Nintendo and Sega Genesis.

Big Disappointment [Posted on 2006-11-23]
I love the X-Men but this game was a big let-down. God forbid you should begin the game in one profile and then come back later to try to play as another. You're forever doomed as a guest from that point which means you can't save the game and your gamer score doesn't benefit. I'm sure there is a way around it but nothing that I find in the manual or on a couple of websites. The action is a little silly and while the artwork is nice-looking I would have liked some better movie scenes than just a few panning pieces of art.

Being able to only play 3 characters is a disappointment too. While I like Nightcrawler and Wolverine I still would have preferred more characters than these two and Iceman. I wouldn't recommend this game.

X-men: The Official Game [Posted on 2007-01-10]
Game play is pretty good but the dialogue screens leaves much to be desired

X-Men Ho! [Posted on 2008-05-02]
I am one of the few who actually loved the game. i first got it on xbox before i upgraded to the 360 and then i bought it again. sweet game and i love the upgrades after each mission. can get very frustrating at some points but over all a great game.

Wat i think  [Posted on 2008-06-24]
Great game but to short i think it took me about 24 hours on the hardest difficulty
