This is an excellent game. It is loads of fun and fairly lengthy. It will satisfy any fan of Wolverine and is definitely worth playing or owning. The camera can be a little loose, but you get by. Also, some of the pacing is bad in that some levels can get very long and hard, and if you die you have to start at the beginning. It can get bothersome, but it only happens on the stealth levels: once or twice. The implementation of Wolverine's senses has been captured perfectly. When you go into sense mode, everything becomes orange, allowing Wolverine to see the green scent trails of enemies in rooms, hidden threats (landmines, laser beams), footsteps of soldiers, and points where you can pull off stealth moves on an enemy. While on the topic of stealth attacks, you can sneak up on soldiers in sense-mode, push X, and pull off a cool stealth move in order to grab the enemy's dog tags. The battle system is a bit bland, but since the controls are fairly smooth, it's still fun. Also, you can pull off melee strike attacks, with which you can down multiple enemies at once. There are several boss battles- all very fun- and a plausible story written by Marvel/Wolverine scribe Larry Hama. Several costumes are also hidden in the game, so you can play as any generation's Wolverine. The costumes include New X-Men, classic Yellow and Blue, classic Brown and Yellow, Patch, and X2 Movie. There's plenty of variety in this game, including some first person shooter elements, and plenty of cameos by other characters. I definitely reccomend it.

Initially, I had my doubts about the game. For one, the cover had Hugh Jackman on it. Not that he's not a good actor, I just feel like they could have made a better casting... beside that... the game was great. It has a plot, cool special attacks, and it's not one of the games that you breeze right through on the first shot. The stealth mode is the most interesting part of the game. Variance could be added to Wolverine's attacks but for what its worth, the attacks in the game are graphically pleasing to watch. It's a little annoying that Wolverine has short range attacks while all his enemies seem to carry some sort of rifle or gun, but that's what makes the game so difficult. The game also has a great replay value, because there is no way that you got everything in the game on the first shot, unless you cheated or used a game guide. Definitely a game worth the buy. In all honesty though, I would wait for the price to fall a little bit, but I always do that.

Wolverine's Revenge has alot of promise, the graphics are great and the stealth moves are a blast to see. Where you run into problems is gameplay, its not always clear what to do, save points are spread out unevenly (sometimes there are many, sometimes you have to do 300 things before getting to one), some of the levels are just designed way too hard, and last but not least you sometimes spend what seems like days simply waiting for Wolvie to regain his health. Worth it if you think you can overlook the flaws to play as a great character, but I would suggest X-men: Legends as the true wolvie, or any x-man, game.

This game is best on men x many things and new screens to learn how many trucks I recommend it very good game

Let me first start off by noting that this is actually a pretty fun game but some very annoying flaws bring the score down. Alright well another month another rushed movie game and while this one may be kind of old it falls under the category including unfortunatley the rushed part. The basic game is nothing mind blowing you are wolverine and you must find a cure for some poison using stealth and brute strength, nothing new. The stealth that utilized Wolverine's unique animal senses was a somewhat wasted opportunity it did what it was supposed to by highlighting invisible traps and making you less noticible, I just felt like more could have been done with it as it is kind of repetitive (Walk slowly, close in on enemy, perform leathal strike move repeat). The basic fighting is nothing noteworthy either but all the while the game is enjoyable. My biggest complaint though comes in the lack of checkpoints. I can't tell you how many times I had to restart a level because of the extremley spaced out checkpoints. You see the only place you can revive is at save points and those are never where you want them. Rather than having you save when you complete one of your objectives the game makes the great decision of making you complete all of them before without dying before you can save. Really that is this games biggest flaw aside from the above mentioned simplicity/redundancy which didn't annoy me quite as much as it might others. I would sort of reccomend this game but only if you aren't frustrated extremley easily or require extreme diversity from your games.

it is a great game filled with action you yuse stelth tactics and fight your old arch rivel sabertooth it over all is a great game i very much sugjest you rent or buy this game!

This game is awesome! It can be difficult but just take out your claws and tear throu those people. It has awsome stealth modes and is just a good game

Just like above, this game is isn't bad, graphics could be a bit better and the gameplay could be less linear.

But other than that its a good game.

Seller was out of country so I did not receive this game. Seller was quick to respond to my order to let me know he could not ship giving me plenty of time to order another gift

I think is a very good game, it has action, I'm still playing the first level, but I really like the game.
