5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific!, June 2, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: X2 Wolverine's Revenge Game Boy Advance (Video Game)

This game is great! The graphics are pretty well defined, for GBA and Wolverine's movements are really fluid and, well, cool-looking ;-).

The story begins in Canada, with Wolverine searching for clues about his past. As the plot thickens and danger threatens the X-Men, he continues his quest/battle in other settings, such as Japan, underground bases, a mysterious island and Magneto's secret fortress. He encounters enemies such as Sabertooth, Pyro, Omega Red and Shiva robots, along with standard ninjas and guards. It's quite challenging, but not frustratingly impossible.

What I really love about this game is the way Wolverine moves. He slashes up his enemies in many different ways, from every direction. As he progresses, he becomes capable of somersaulting in mid-air, climbing up the walls, clinging to the ceiling, sliding and attacking from mid-air at super-speed. He can also regenerate (but only when his claws are sheathed) and, if he lashes out several times in a row, he can work himself into a bestial rage, thereby enhancing his attacks. So Wolverine's moves are pretty sophisticated and developped.

All in all, it's a great game, with a lot of action.

Released around the time X2: X-Men United hit theaters, X2: Wolverine's Revenge focuses on the adamantium clawed mutant berserker as he makes a trek across Canada to learn more of his forgotten past. With telepathic help from Professor Xavier, you guide Wolvie through a horde of enemy ninjas and guards before taking on level bosses like Pyro, Shiva, Deathstrike, and of course, Sabretooth and Magneto. The graphics are typical side scroller fare, but everything is animated nicely, while the sound effects are decent as well. The control handles easily for the most part, and Wolverine's moves are nicely translated from the comics to the game, and his regeneration ability is nicely utilized as well. There's nothing wrong with X2: Wolverine's Revenge for the GBA as this version is better than it's home console bretheren, but once you beat it, there's nothing else left to do. If you're a Wolverine fan, comics or movies, and you can find this cheap then pick it up, just don't expect much more replayability out of it once you beat it.

it's a bit too hard even if you put it on Easy mode. However, the game do have features that makes it stand out. The designs of the environments are nice and clean. The way wolverine slashes and cling to the wall makes you think of the X-men movie that's because that's exactly how wolverine moves! I think this would've been a perfect game if it wasn't too hard and if only you don't hear those alarm sounds that come off on almost each stage of the game, it gets really annoying at times.
