Superman Returns (Xbox 360)

With the introduction of a new blockbuster costing more than a small country, a movie-game isn't far around the corner and here it is - Superman reurns. This game tells the story of the renound metropolis saviour as he fights enemieds that include a giant tornado ( he fights weather now?). This game is the standard free-roam superhero game ala incredible hulk, spiderman 2 etc. The controls are easy to master and the button bashing combat will appeal to most gamers. The game is very lengthy and the graphics surpassed my expectations. The sound and dialogue is well handled although with not much originality or live support, it doesn't go down in the history books as a ...  Read the complete review

Superman! A couple of years ago, everybody's favourite Super-duperhero flew into our cinemas with his cape a-flowing with a brand new blockbuster, then flew away again without anyone really noticing. And he left behind a present in the form of a game for just about every console and computer under the sun. So how does it fare?Well, take a guess. Yeah... this half baked attempt at video gaming is almost completely rubbish. I'll start with the positives, then I'll go on to the... err... odd niggle that stops this game from being just about as far away from perfect as is possible. Fundamentally, Superman Returns is a sound concept for a ...  Read the complete review

Superman has been with us for nearly 70 years, starting off in Action Comics and then flying onto all other available entertainment formats. However the track record for old Supes on the computer game format has been ropey at best. With the release of Superman Returns on DVD, EA have taken on the challenge of making Superman great again on the Xbox 360. I will start by saying that this is "Superman Returns: The Video Game" in name alone. The real backbone of the game has nothing to do with the movie, only cut scenes and character voices have been used from the movie. You can take this in two ways, bad as people will be purchasing this as a film ...  Read the complete review

Based in the Superman Universe and loosely based on the film of the same name Superman Returns is action game for the Xbox360 . It was made by Electronic arts and was released in November 2006. As you would guess you play as Superman and you have to try and save Metropolis from villains and criminals. The game is set in over 80 square miles of city for you to explore and the game has several missions like fighting crime and rescuing people. There is also mini missions and puzzles in the game. You have plenty of supernatural skills as you would expect like flying, strength and speed. The game itself is fun to play although at times can be ...  Read the complete review

Superman returns is a movie based videogame for the Microsoft Xbox 360 console. The game doesn't really follow the plot of the film but let's face it there was hardly any action in the movie, if it was it would be very dialogue heavy! It is a free roaming game, you can fly around the city of Metropolis, this is great fun, the flying is what this game does best. Being a superman game there is obviously going to be combat, unfortunately it is not really skill based and you can just mash buttons to get the job done. You can also use superman's powers, ice breath, heat vision and super breath. Superman does not have a health metre, instead ...  Read the complete review
