I must say one thing, I love this game, but then again, I love Wolverine as well. One thing this game does well is translate the whole comic book atmosphere. Boss battles are as epic as you'd imagine, with all sorts of ferral attacks being unleashed according to specific situations. It really captures Wolverine's essence without flaw. The voice acting is spot on and the story is well... a Wolverine story through and through. But just as I love this game for all it does well, I can also see how some people may be turned off. Perhaps there is a little too much skulking around when you are expecting all out violence. also, while the fighting engine perfectly depicts Wolverine's savage nature, most of the most brutal attacks are activated as mini cutscenes, sort of a finishing move type of deal, While this is cool and the animations are sometimes spectacular, you often wish you could personally carry the onslaught manually. Taking everything into account, if you are a Wolverine fan, don't hesitate to pick this baby up. On the other hand, if you like action games you should wait at least until the price goes down a bit.
