X-Men Destiny Review (FMV Magazine)

Jonathan Szafran writes: "X-Men Destiny is one of the worst games I have played in a very long time. Everything in the game made me cringe from the moment I hit the start button. It is a shame and blemish on the beloved comic franchise, and Jack Kirby would be turning in his grave if he saw it."

I played through it, after buying it for my daughter. It's not horrible, just kinda ugly & mediocre. A coupla neat parts for X-Men fans. I'd give it a C-.

I'm mad that in this day and age people are still doing crappy games
is not like gaming is anything new its old so they should have somewhat of a idea what people want or don't want

for games like this , it's almost as if they try hard to make it fail .

You frickin' have everything handed down to you . The books already lay out the designs for you to ape , with various great artstyle to follow .

The plots and dialogues are already written for you .

The epic saga are already done for you ..

And yet activision always manage to make a turd or meh game from the marvel games , especially the xmen ones .

Something as average as Xmen legends (loads of characters and decent use of stories , but hardly pretty , and a mediocre beat them all with mediocre rpg elements) shouldnt be your absolute best effort .

How can you fail for over a decade at something some old arcade beat them all from the 16 bits era got right ?

i know dude there hasn't been many good hero games in a long time besides the last batman games arkham asylum and hopefully arkham city but before that no super hero games were good

When you consider the potential, this only serves to be even more harrowing.

The Best and Worst of Superhero Games

Mrs Nesbitt from BBG writes: "The superhero genre is massive in the movie industry with MCU dominating the scene with several Avengers movies and other subsequent titles. So, what about video games? Similar to the game to movie transition, movies have not always transitioned very well. (Dare I mention Charlie’s Angels for GameCube?) Luckily for us, we have had some spectacular superhero games, and equally, some downright “what were they thinking” titles."

PS1 Spider-Man Wins it for me because Stan Lee narrated it all, his opening speech alone gets you pumped, also Worst: Spider-Man: Web of Shadows...ew

darthv722062d ago

I agree with the 1st spiderman. I have it on DC though. Hulk UD is a fun game as well.

Stalmaster2062d ago

Probably in the minority but I really enjoyed Batman Begins before the Arkham series came along.

MrsNesbitt2062d ago

Actually really enjoyed that too! But had to opt for Batman Returns on the SNES

hanko142062d ago

spider-man ten pin bowling was the best

AK912062d ago (Edited 2062d ago )

Deadpool was trash though, it's surprising to me that Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker isn't on the list but then again that's probably a good thing.

Ah yes and Spider-Man (2000) man that game was my childhood but the sequel Enter Electro was so underwhelming.

X-Men: Destiny Review - Neocrisis

Neocrisis - Does the emphasis on "choice," as opposed to a more traditional linearity, make Destiny stand out from the rest? Or does Destiny fall short of its potential?
