If you every read a marvel comic or seen a movie by marvel, this game is a must have. This is action packed game that looks like it came right out a comic book, it has a huge roster of Heroes and Villian (mostly npc) but they still make an appearance. You start out playing as 1of 4 characters (Captain America, Spider-Man, Thor, or Wolverine - can swap during gameplay). Other characters are available to you when you get to a save point and switch roster. Total playable roster is 24 I believe 20 to start and 4 characters to unlock. Each character has its own unique power to choose from, 4 being the limit to use, you pick you choose.
The graphics and sound are very impressive, with the common hero repeating there slogans. But I don't think they had any marvel writers on this game cause the storyline is alittle short and weak (not a biggie) . A big plus that I enjoyed was that the heroes where able to unable to unlock outfits they wore in there history.
I would recommand buying this game, story is alittle short but theres tons of stuff to unlock.
