5.0 out of 5 stars Better than the first (if possible), October 5, 2005
By David M. Richardson "Slappendufus" (Phoenix, AZ United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
X-Men 2 takes everything the first one did wrong and either fixes or scraps it, and then takes everything the first one did right and makes it better! Now, I'm a huge fan of the first one, so I didn't really think there was much wrong with it, but X-Men 2 is so much better!

The action is very intense and fast-paced, and I also love the customization you can put into your heroes (or villains). This could have been the game's only flaw--you level up so often it becomes a distraction from the action. However the designers handle this by giving you the option of automating level-ups and power allocations, so if micro-management isn't your thing, feel free to just slug it out.

There are a great mix of characters to choose from, although in my opinion there is some imbalance to some of them, such as Scarlet Witch who has NO melee capabilities to speak of, and no way to develop them, or Nightcrawler, who while a cool character is very energy dependant but very slow to regenerate said energy. These are minor quibbles, however. Chances are you'll find a few favorites and stick with them. This is rewarded in fact, because if you switch characters too often, they won't level up very fast and you will doubtless find yourself outclassed at a key moment (unless you spend some time training them up in the Danger Room).

Another nice feature is the unlockable characters. Xavier, Deadpool, and best yet--the uber-hero IRON MAN (why uber, you ask? He has the best elements of all the characters--flying, tanking, melee, and blasting)!!! The PC version contains a couple of additional characters--Sabretooth and Pyro, however these are basically just re-skinned versions of Wolvering and Sunfire. I would recommend sticking with the console versions since the PC version is said to be buggy and controls are a little more difficult. The X-Box version has the cleanest graphics (naturally).

The single-player campaign is a bit short--probably about 25-30 hours to complete, but the replayability factor is huge. You'll want to hurry up and finish the game just so you can go back and replay it with a different set of characters. Also, the multiplayer is a nice touch to increase replayability, with a 4-person online co-op mode.

Overall, this a a fantastic game, and well worth the money for anyone who enjoys fast-paced action, RPG elements, and Marvel.

5.0 out of 5 stars VERY FUN GAME!, September 21, 2005
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This game is just awesome! I played and loved the first X-Men:Legends, and Rise of Apocalypse is even BETTER! The graphics are very cool. They really nailed the lighting in this game. So many more characters with even more awesome powers, and you get to play the villains!!

Just like X-Men:Legends, the multiplayer is very good because my friends can join and leave the game at any time. This is a great feature! In other games, once you start a multiplayer game, your friends must stick around all the time. I have not yet tried the new online multiplayer, but I imagine it is pretty good.

Another improvement is there are now difficulty levels.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS GAME.

4.0 out of 5 stars Awesome game, but the glitch is a *, October 24, 2005
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This is a great game, but the glitch is annoying! It tends to freeze up while in the Danger room and while changing characters. So save often!!!!!!!! I first wrote that it was the Xbox version that had the glitch, but I found out that it happens on all platforms. I also found out that if you keep your inventory low (Hero and item stash) then you can minimize the freeze-ups. (The key word here is minimize, it will still freeze.) Also, it's good to keep a back up saved game, just alternate saves. This way you won't get stuck losing hours of game play like I did. I was just starting Act 5 (the last act) when my game wouldn't load... and I had to start over... not happy. So save yourself some time and frustration by following this advice.
