1 out of 5 stars Microsoft does it again!   September 17, 2008
A. J. DeRoehn (Vermont)
Microsoft strikes again! Amazon had this game for $20 cheaper for X-Box than PS2... so I bought the X-Box version. What idiot wouldn't? Well as it turns out I'm the idiot! Microsoft has struck again, as this game is NOT and I repeat NOT supported on X-Box 360, which is probably why it's so much cheaper than the PS2 version on this fine site. My 360 informed me to check Microsoft's site for an update list of playable X-Box games... which hasn't been updated since November 2007.

Bill Gates... you owe me $8.

Lots of fun. Lots of Menu time but lots of fun. I would say this is more fun than the first X-Men.

4 out of 5 stars replayability   November 6, 2006
M. P. Valley (Fitchburg, WI USA)
My wife and I played the first game, and then immediately bought this one. We're doing the easy difficulty first. Once we're done, we'll probably go back to the first game and do it again with a higher difficulty. The only negative with the games is that sometimes characters get jammed into tight places (eg a stairwell) when they get too spaced out and you have to bring everybody back to the same spot to "rescue" the one character. Yeah Wolverine!


4 out of 5 stars Great game to spend a weekend with friends   July 31, 2006

This is a great multiplayer game. 4-p coop games are hard to find and this game really made the weekend gathering with my gaming buddies a lot of fun! There are a few little flaws but they are just minor annoyances, do little to take away from the fun.

Pros:
- easy to get into
- good graphics and very good music
- lots of playable and customizable characters

Cons:
- unintuitive menu system when it comes to multiplayer. some controller can be disabled, some can't. sometimes everyone can control the menu options, sometimes can't. etc.
- auto equip re-equips EVERYONE with the "best" equipments, as determined by the AI. if one player has auto equip option turned on, when he/she picks up an item, everyone was affected.
- gameplay is repetitive after a while.
- but repetitive gameplay is not a big factor because game is short, we beat the game in 1 full day+night.
