A God of War clone very much fitting for the brutal Wolverine.

The game is straight foward: we move ahead as we brutalize our enemies with all kind of deadly moves, throws and fatalities. There is a great enemy variety and bosses. Problem is levels are way longer than they should sometimes, and there are some few puzzles that are very pointless.

But then again, it's a good beat'em up starring Wolverino, so it's a safe bet.

Um joguinho muito divertido, visceral como Wolverine deve ser, tem uma boa diferença do filme, embora ele ainda o use como base para sua história, aliás, eu sou uma das pessoas que gostam desse filme mesmo sabendo que ele é ruim. Os combos são precisos, o parry é gostoso se aplicar, os puzzles são divertidos e a progressão é bacana, intercalando passado e presente. Uma pena haver muita repetição de inimigos, poderia ter um pouco mais de variedade, mas enquanto estamos dilacerando isso até que passa despercebido, o final também é um pouco corrido, quase que um boss rush, mas ainda sim tem uma pausa para exploração na missão de caçar o Gambit e o resto da missão do passado. Eu já havia jogado esse jogo em 2009 no X-Box 360 e recentemente bateu aquela vontade de jogar novamente, fico feliz que minha diversão com ele a 15 anos atrás continuo a mesma de agora.

They absolutely nailed the visceral, violently satisfying combat - this is the ultimate Wolverine experience in a video game as of this writing in 2024.

This has the pitfalls you would expect; some repetitive levels and sub-bosses, and ho-hum objectives - especially in the first half. But there's a lot of fun set pieces in the second half and overall you can tell they really tried to make this a rip-roaring campaign despite time and money constraints; with mostly great results!

[Steam Deck notes: some hoops need to be jumped through, but once up and running this is an excellent Deck game]

Goddamn this was a fun motherfucker. While I was playing through all those Spider-Man games, a few people in chat mentioned this game to me as a good game to play involving comicbook heroes. Yup they were right.

Combat is so satisfying. Love the dismemberment, love the impact that a lot of your moves have. It's so fucking fun just drilling and cutting and slicing into dudes. Definitely makes you feel like you're Wolverine. Lot of cool ways to kill enemies with the environment, too.

Most of the locales are cool, with the entire Senitnel area being my favorite part of the game, as a huge X-men fan. Wish there were more X-men peeps but I guess they were limited to whatever was in the movie. I haven't seen the movie, for whatever that's worth.

Some of the areas, basically all of Africa, I got so sick of by the 4th time going back there. That and the entire final chapter kinda sours my opinion of an otherwise amazing action game. A lot of the design choices are hard for me to criticize, like the final boss and Sabretooth's designs, because they were forced to tie it into the movie.

9/10. Essential action game.

Tenho saudade da era de jogos baseados em filmes. Por mais que a maioria deles fossem ruins, eventualmente apareciam pérolas como essa.

Esse jogo sem dúvidas é um dos melhores hack’n slashs do PS3 e ainda de quebra consegue ser mil vezes melhor que o filme.

Juego fino señores🗿🍷

This game has no need going as hard as it does. Its better than the movie in every aspect especially with its violence which unlike the movie its m-rated. The gameplay having lots of cool ways to dismember enemies is a lot of fun and the body horror looks awesome when Wolverine himself or enemies are damaged. Also the boss fights are really fun at first its just the same re-occurring mini bosses but towards the end u fight a bunch of actual bosses and they're all very different and enjoyable. My only real complaint is that I wish they gave more enemies health because after a while u can just kill most things easily without getting to combo them especially when u start to unlock moves and get more upgrades. Unless its like certain bosses u won't be able to do any like crazy insane DMC style combos on anything. Overall this is one of those games that is better than the movie its based off and it being a DMC and GOW style game and it actually working as well as it does. So if u really like those games and like Wolverine or Marvel id say this game is perfect for u cause outside of certain issues this is one of the best Marvel games of all time imo.

Does it have a double jump? Yes!
(New thing segment in my reviews)

After futzing about with a bunch of games, I finally realized I could play some 7th gen nostalgia with the ps3 emulator, and oh boy, was I ready for some slop. X-Men Origins: Wolverine is just the slop I needed. This game is fine and playable, just some unseasoned chicken you could eat.

Combat stays the same throughout really, although it does feel satisfying to do the same combos for a while, the game does start to get tiring towards the end. The levels aren't very entertaining because they consist of 3 government labs, an outdoor snowy section, and a bunch of ancient ruins in africa. The ancient ruins feel so trite for the 7th gen, and its no exception here because they aren't interesting. There is one more level, which is climbing a tower chasing Gambit, and its a little better, but still not very interesting.

There was one specific memory I had of this game where I got the final boss (Deadpool) caught in an infinite where he coudlnt fight back. All this mid led up to this moment

Also, the CG cutscenes look pretty good I think.

The combat is very repetitive, the bosses are middling, and the levels are mostly hallways and/or backtracking. I get to be Wolverine though and that's pretty dope.

If there was a definition of average for games it would be this. Through my friend's recommendation of checking this out its nothing to write home about. The combat is nothing you haven't did already and the only thing to separate it is the climbing and moving of platforms for you to jump on with the rare puzzle. So it can get old. The music ain't my cup of tea. The 360/PS3 look of this game allows it to hold up well with the graphics. The only other redeeming part of this game would be the story but since the audio mixing on both the PS3 and PC version I tried the cutscenes were literally impossible to hear with no subtitles might I add. So I really got half of the experience of the game although didn't seem like I was missing much.

Really good action game, one of the best movie tie-ins made cuz they just made a really damn good product. Lots of gore, a really cool damage system, really fun skills to use, environmental kills, lots of badass animations, the game has everything. Hell, it has like 3 really great rival fights, too, it's genuinely amazing. Story is basically just a way to get you to the cool parts, but it's pretty worth it. So much enemy variety, too, and they all have their own ways of fighting that make it so you have to interact with them in completely different ways, and then they come in pretty big waves with usually 3 or more enemy types to keep the encounters interesting. It's great, highly recommend it to anyone who likes enjoying themselves and doing things that make them happy (aka everyone).
