X-Men Origins: Wolverine Review
I will start by saying I am a huge Wolverine fan and pretty much love anything he's in and just had to get some version of this game simply because he's in it and I didn't own it yet, lol
Many people don't like the wii version of this game, preferring instead the "uncaged" editions. I was slightly tempted to buy one of those but not being a fan of anything with tons of blood and gore decided against it.
I decided instead to get the wii version and I have to say unlike the other reviewers I am quite pleased with this game. Though I won't lie and say its the best game ever made, it is good for anyone who doesn't like a bunch of blood and gore but still want to be Wolverine.
The one thing that annoys me is there is button combination's you have to do, the last fight (I don't know if you would call it a boss fight or not?) comes to mind. I would get so far in this long string of button combination's (there's like two parts to it I think that you have to do to kill the enemy) and at the last button would instinctively press the wrong button by mistake. Which resulted in killing Wolverine and having to start all or part of the fight over (I forget which ) to get the boss to the point,where I could defeat him.
Which got very frustrating, to get so far to just barely lose and have to start over.
All and all though for me and those people just like me who want to be Wolverine for a while but skip the blood, this game is perfect. It's not excellent but its not terrible, not especially hard to beat either as I think I did it in one night, lol.
Regardless if your not sure about it either a) try to find somewhere to rent it, b) borrow from a friend or c)buy it used (that way you don't invest much or anything to try it out).
I love it, thought the storyline was very nice, graphics were really good (in my opinion,) and I plan on keeping it and would buy it again.
(I will note though that on some levels X2:wolverine's revenge is slightly better as it is more complex and requires more thinking and planing to beat it. So, you may get your "wolverine" fix better by playing that)
