Superman Returns (360)
:


I just Downloaded the Demo for Superman on XBL. Took a while being it's about 100 shy of a Gig. Not the greatest but being able to roam and fly around is awesome. The thing I really enjoyed was the Warp Speed Flying, landing on the ground from after flying is pretty cool . Graphics could be a little bit better.

i may rent it when it comes out. the gameplay itself is decent and i see alot of potential for a free roam enviroment where you can also fly and use super powers, but in my opinion the lackluster graphics kinda ruin the "buyability"* of the game for me, especially at 60$ on a next gen console.

The more I play this Demo, The more I like it. It's still not worth a purchase but a Gamefly rental is indeed in order. I have to give the Designers of this game some cred, Supes is a tough one to pull off in Video Games. SUperman Returns should be well recieved for their effort.

Damn You ! Grand Theft Auto !!!!



I hope they throw Richard Pryor Somewhere in the Game.

I agree... it seems to me like there hasn't been a good Superman game ever since the Atari 2600 version was released.

Yes... I am old enough to remember that game. Sue me.

I just downloaded the game and have to say it is above average. I think it has a lot of fun in store for us gamers, but I dislike the flying controls. It is a bit tough to try and precisely fly where you want to go . Other than that, I will put this on my GameQ!

I just read the review on IGN.
No Lois Lane, No Clark Kent, And No Final Battle or battle at all with Lex Luthor ?.?.?.?
The Final Boss is a Tornado ?.?.?.?

Other than then EA nailing down the Powers of they say the game is weak. Ohh Well....I guess the Demo will provide me with some short lived entertaiment.

And sadly No Richard Pryor

Glad to hear that information, NUN... I'm also glad that I am only renting a copy of the game, too.

According to GameFly, I am on the "long wait" list.

I'll wait till I get to the respected member status of Gamefly when they allow me 3 Games out. And just like that Superman goes from # 1 to # 20 on my Game Q.

The Superman Returns demo was included on this month's OXM disc, and I have to say that I was mildly impressed with the game.

I thought the enemies were way too wimpy compared to the powers that Superman has... even Metallo was too easy to beat up... but I was more impressed with the way the developers handled the flying aspect of the game.

Makes me wonder if it's still on a "long wait" status with GameFly... it seems to me like this game would be an easy way to unlock a bunch of gamerscore points.
