Alan Butterworth reports:
''I've been disappointed before, but maybe nothing on this magnitude. Having just watched "Iron Man" on the big screen, I was genuinely pumped to play this game and get the chance to feel the raw, unadulterated power of that suit at my fingertips. Somewhere between the repetitive, uninspiring gameplay and the abysmal presentation, my excitement turned to the kind of frustration that makes me want to punt small, defenseless animals. You'll be glad to know I spared my cat and wrote this review instead.
Iron Man for PC is loosely based on Marvel's box office hit, which follows the story of weapons genius Tony Stark, who creates the ultimate weapon in a high-tech battle suit. The game takes liberties with the plot and throws in some characters and villains you won't see in the film, but sadly, it has all the dramatic impact of a soggy firecracker. Even with Robert Downey, Jr., and others lending their vocal talents to the game, the poorly structured cut scenes and FMVs are not just confusing to anyone who hasn't watched the movie, but they also fail to make you connect with and care for any of the characters. The poorly timed lip-synching made me feel like I was watching a badly dubbed foreign movie and the blurry, low-resolution graphics gave me a headache.''
Swing through this list of the best Marvel games on the PS3. From Spider-Man to X-Men Origins and Captain America there is enough to enjoy.
EA Motive's Iron Man game will feature writing from Ryan North, the Canadian author behind The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl.
wtf? He has also written in a ton of Marvel comic books, and you quote Squirrel Girl? Click bait at its best.
I honestly don't know since I'm only a casual Marvel fan, do people like Squirrel Girl?
Motive Studio, which released this year's Dead Space remake, announced this Iron Man game in September of last year.
Wait for gameplay first. Why do people blindly hype games without any solid video evidence?
like exomecha, game looked amazing, they even showed unreal engine 5 updates, meanwhile its year and half later, company is gone, website is for sale and the company is gone
Wow.. Where have I been to completely miss this.. haha
Glad to see EA Motive getting more responsibility after the good work they seemed to have done with the Dead Space remake. A well-done Iron Man game has the potential to be REALLY good fun!
Wouldn't be an entirely bad thing if we're talking about using the flight from Anthem. The up and go/flight was pretty solid. It was the shooting and other aspects that made Anthem subpar imo. So if we're talking combat then they need to do some work. Granted, even if they opted to use flight from Anthem some work would probably still need to be done regarding fast paced aerial combat. 2 cents
I agree. Anthem’s flight mechanics were smooth and responsive. This Ironman game needs to take that and improve upon it further.
In my opinion, "Worthplaying" should only review...well I don't know...GOOD TITLES. It seems 95% of their reviews are about garbage titles.
