Iron Man
In the comics - he was the most interesting of all the Marvel heroes.
In the movie - Robert Downey Jr. has imbued him with a sexy and storm-tossed soul.
In the game - you have a man, who is mostly shaped like a projectile, hurling about,
shooting, flying, lumbering about, and only a few cut scenes of Tony Stark
to create a hero that your care about. Without that, you just have a fighting machine.
If one settled for that - the battles are unimaginative and repetitive.
You vanquish an enemy - and more are spawned, eliminate them again - more are
re-spawned - and on and on to fill up the time.
This is exactly what girl gamers hate.
Why is it necessary to kill something and kill it again and again - once should be good enough.
Ok - so he likes to dress up - but why do we have to "earn" the other suits - I
mean, Tony is a billionaire - what's a few suits between gamers?
As for the flying experience, the feeling was better in NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams.
So after the rockets, grapple, and uni-beam and transferring power from his heart,
there is no compelling reason to play this game unless it is to relive the movie.
Question: If this were a stand alone game - would you play it?
Maybe that’s how we should evaluate these games.
