X-Men Origins: Wolverine
Movie games usually get bad reviews as they generally aren’t up to par with what gamers are expecting. Another issue is their price tag, $60 for a game that offers 1/4 of what something like GoW 2 would offer at the same price instead? I don’t think so…
Anyway, I previously talked about Wanted which wasn’t too bad of a movie game based on what I saw in the demo. Another movie game that I feel is worth mentioning is X-Men Origins: Wolverine. It actually looks like a potentially good X-Men game. I saw some rather brief but impressive gameplay of it not too long ago. It showed Wolverine taking down a helicopter and it looked both fun/challenging. This is definitely a title I’ll be keeping my eye on and hopefully a demo will be released. Until then, all I can do is speculate that it might be one of the few decent movie games that have come out recently. At the same time, I’m not expecting it to be an amazing game or some sort of “Bioshock killer”as I highly doubt it will be that but as previously stated, it might be the redemption of movie games if it’s actually worth the MSRP…
As for the movie, it looks good as well but this isn’t a movie blog so it ends there…
