Superman Returns: The Videogame

Superman Returns: The Videogame - Xbox 360

Hopes were SUPER Crushed

I am a BIG Superman fan. I waited for months fot this game. I even bought a 360 because I wanted to play this game with the best possible quality. Needless to say I was very dissapointed that I even waisted my time with this game. What frustrates me is that they had such a good thing going but they got lazy. The Flying controls were outstanding and the soundtrack was pretty good. The graphics could have been better but they were ok. Now for the problems.... First and formost has to be the monotonus gameplay. A lot like the issues that plauged Spider-man 2, you just get tired of the same ol' crap. The only thing that saved Spider-man 2 was the free roaming enviroment that alowed you to enjoy being spidey for hours without having to save or fight anyone. That's where Superman goes horribly wrong. I can deal with monotonus fighting but at least give be a choice. If you fly anywhere near the city you a bound to run into some sort of problem (ala Final Fantasy). The Small saving grace in this was the ability to play as Bizzaro. This was a fun addition to the game and get even better when you use the cheat to use him for an unlimited time. Although a fun addition this to gets very old. The camera angles were a bit frustrating at times and made me wonder if the were going for the epileptic monkey with a camera feel. And the targeting system gave Superman the attention span of my A.D.D five year old. Do waste your time with this game if you value your sanity. I am deffinetly not the same after playing this abomination of a game. The Superman fan inside died a little. And now I have the courage to get that Lazer removal of the Superman symbol on my arm.
