PlayTM: Iron Man Review

PlayTM writes: "On removing Iron Man from its cellophane wrapper, any typical gamer is likely to have their fingers crossed, praying to the powers-that-be that it will serve as the veritable agent provocateur of superhero movie tie-ins, transforming the genre into something vibrant, fun and engaging.

It's hard to find where criticism of Iron Man should begin. After effortlessly eroding the giddy heights of joy the movie managed to elicit, Iron Man: The Official Videogame of the Movie is somehow able to ruin itself by being needlessly complicated and simultaneously rudimentarily simplistic. On a difficulty mode higher than easy, you'll find yourself being shot out of the sky far more often than you'd prefer. Missiles are flung at you in such quantities that successfully dodging them all is, quite frankly, impossible. You're forced to sit and wait under cover for your energy bar to fill back up, and whilst this sensation creates an intense evocation of danger and dread in Call of Duty 4, does nothing more than cause an immense excruciating anger in Iron Man."
