Bottom Line
A few glitches mar what is otherwise the best adaptation of Wolverine's powers. |
"Wolverine gets the God of War treatment, along with some of the RPG elements we associate with X-Men Legends or Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Sounds pretty good? It is, especially the Uncaged Edition, which is one of the most violent games I've ever played. It would be better if it didn't suffer some graphical slowdown and glitching--telltale signs of rushing to get the game out. However, this game will make you feel like an unrestrained Wolverine. There's something really satisfying at leaping across a room and pinning someone to the floor, ramming your calls through someone's skull, or slashing someone's leg off and watching the twist in agony on the floor... Uh, maybe I ought to see my therapist."
