User Rating: 7.5 | X-Men: The Official Game PS2

This game isn't as bad as the review makes it out o be. I enjoy it for what it's worth. The storyline is intended to fit between the second and upcoming third movie, and when you look at it that way, it kinda make sense when you play it, but the storyline is very thin.
There is no explanation of how and why Jason Stryker and Deathstrike make reappearances after they died...what a miss..
And it would have been so much greater with a better combo system for Wolvie and Nightcrawler.And if you’ve played either of the X-Men Legends games, you may be disappointed when you play this game, but it can be very enjoyable, especially when you play as Nightcrawler , he has some very special moves and it is great , and after you beat it, you will see why Nightcrawler is not in the third movie.
But all in all it is a okay game and it is worth a try , but do rent it first.

  X Men 3 is a letdown of a game which had the potential to become a great game.

  This game does not do anything for the gaming world except giving gamers aching hands from nonstop button mashing. There aren't any special moves or good combos you can do or anything. The only thing that makes this game... Read Full Review
