What we said about it:

Ultimate Spider-Man does a lot of things properly. As a fan of the character from back in the day, I enjoyed the writing most of all. Brian Michael Bendis, the writer of the Ultimate Spider-Man comic book, was brought in to script all the dialogue and help guide the overarching story of the game. Spider-Man's quips have never sounded better. The story, while deadly serious during some segments, never stops being fun. This helps the game feel more like a breezy joyride than an angst-filled, dark, gritty horror of a title.

What we said about it:

Pretty much everything the Hulk has been known for his entire comic-book life is on display here. Players can run at high speeds, bound across a city, and smash just about anything they can see.

This game is what most superhero games should be. There are many comic-book related items to unlock during the course of the gameplay, and this works very well as a reward for which the fans can strive. Whether you are a true fan of the Hulk or just feel that a game in which you can kill/smash/destroy everything in sight would be a great cathartic experience, you will have a great time with Dr. Bruce Banner's alter ego.

What we said about it:

X-Men Legends II is definitely a title worth players’ time, even with the minor annoyances. There is a great deal of fun to be had controlling the X-Men in such detail with your best bud, and configuring your parties with different characters really adds to the “longer lasting” flavor of the game as a whole. If Raven and Activision decide to continue the franchise, they should be able to iron out some of the game’s minor problems and really deliver a repulser-ray power blast of a game on the next-gen hardware. In the meantime, however, X-Men Legends II more than pays for its fifty-dollar price tag by delivering hours of mutant melee mania.
