I thought that this was a pretty good Marvel game. That said, it is not unlike the previous Marvel "dungeon crawls". It is very good at allowing you to select your own team, and very forgiving when you are about to die, you can use the portal system to warp out and select some new team members. This makes the game a little easier than it could or should have been, but it was fun. The achievements were definitely the reason that I finished the game though. The story was good, but not compelling enough to finish without the points. The graphics were good, but nothing awesome. One of the worst things about the game was that when you mapped new powers to a button, it did not keep it. I was forever going back to re-map, thinking that I had one power when I did not.
This is a good game, but get it used or rent it.
