fun but the combat and enemies get repetitive quick
Only thing missing from this is a good soundtrack and a game reviewer having to fight their best friend in a Halloween Express Wolvie costume on camera.
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.
It's really too bad Raven are in and have been in the CoD mines for so long. They used to make decent to great oddities that I savor. I hadn't touched this one since it released and I played the demo. I recently saw a copy of it at a retro game store for $80 so I decided I'd go the ol' RPCS3 route. Pretty fun game! The combos and enemy variety are lacking, but the presentation is quite good and I never got tired of watching Logan's wounds heal.
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]
