Xmen Origins Wolverine

Well The game its self is great it has all the things you want in a game. bloody, violent, and brutally. The are even achievements and trophies for certain number of dismemberments, there are quick-kills designed specifically to take off heads, and there are finishers that just plain look painful. This is a savage beast who is barely in control, and it shows all the way through. Covering his pre-hero days, it allows for a bit more leeway in his brutality without taking anything away from the character. As you fight the basic soldiers and more advanced enemies, you learn “combat reflexes” that make Wolverine more effective against that type of unit, so as they get more difficult, you get stronger against them to balance it out.

Aside from claw fodder, there are of course boss battles, but there are also several mini-bosses. These are much stronger and larger enemies that Wolverine has to take on, usually by dodging and lunging onto their backs. These fights get a little formulaic at times, but overall they’re satisfying enough, especially the first couple of times for each enemy type. It also breaks up the hack and slash of the basic enemies. The boss battles are where this game really shines. The major battles from the movie are recreated here, but there are also some major ones you won’t see on the big screen.

THIS GAME IS A PERFECT 10
