I’m still playing the game, I’m only about 3 hours into the thing and somewhere around 80% completed according to the game, and I’m not having fun any more, and this really bothers me. I just shelled out $60 something and I can’t say I’ve ever had a feeling during this that I was doing anything meaningful other than saving a block of Metropolis idiots (they run into you while you’re punching your opponents and are sent flying).
I’m trying to do one of the side missions where I fly around and collect things, but Metropolis gets attacked every 10 seconds by a band of flying ice dragons and their companions the fire dragons. Or I’ll get wrapped up in a fight with the guy who multiplies over and over again yet only manages to have 3 or 4 lines and they’re so freaking corny it hurts.
I really wanted to like this game… honestly, I got sucked in because of the demo being so short… I thought “there has to be more to this game, and it’s probably frickin’ awesome”… I’m really not finding the frickin’ awesome.
There’s a large beautiful city here every 3rd building seems to have the same texture, in the distance you can see a giant dam which looks like it would be fun to fly over to, but forget about that. Metropolis is a huge series of islands with an unreachable mainland and no possible way the citizens could reach it. No airports, appears to be a sea-based town only. The mainland, if I am guessing right, has a cliff facing Metropolis that is roughly 25 miles high, which is about the same height as the unreachable dam that you also can’t visit.
And there’re numerous problematic dichotomies – one example is you are charged with taking care of the city, keeping things from getting damaged, and yet you get achievement points for things such as ripping the globe off of the Daily Planet and throwing it down the streets. Another is you go to take a challenge and turn into Bizaro and have to destroy as much of the city as you can to advance.
And for the Man of Steel, I feel more like I’m playing the man of pretty darn strong rubber. I can lift 60,000 pounds in this game, and throw it, and it bounces off any buildings it hits. I can hit a pedestrian while in a fight and they get right back up but if one of the opponents hits them, they go down instantly. I try and pick up the injured person to take them to the ambulance (where I then drop them 20 feet to their rescue) and will manage to pick up the wandering pedestrian who is walking through a burning car to get in my way.
Metropolis takes a little too much damage and Superman drops to his knees and looks like he’s crying. It takes the same amount of damage in two back to back fights and, well, for some reason it’s fine.
While playing I also learned that when the game spawns 15 flying enemies in certain areas the game will lock up for a while. Friend of mine was watching and said my XBOX had shut down due to overheating and I pointed out that you could still go the menu and to wait for a bit, and then it did whatever it was doing and started speeding up, and that it was always when there were that many flying enemies. Duplicated the problem a few times.
I don’t know what I did exactly, but I blew one of the bosses into orbit for a while, and when he came down he landed in the ocean. He did not move, nor could I swim or fly underwater. I tried using my heat vision to hit him but noticed all I was doing was damaging Metropolis. I was fighting Bizaro at one point and I knocked him into the one highway that exists… could not get to him. Both these incidents I had to reload the last save.
I’ve gotten to the point where I save every single event due to bugs like these.
I wish I had my money back, or the game I expected
There is a a good foundation in this program for a really great game. It is unfortunate that the developers obviously ran out of time to put any of the game elements in. If you were to refer to this as a “Sandbox” game then “Grand theft auto, Saint’s row and Bully” would be the playground that, that sand box was in. To give you a rough idea of my game experience with “Superman Returns”; approximatly 2 hrs 27 mins and 16 seconds into the game (according to the game clock) I had 65% of the game complete… and 95 % two hours later… Worth Sixty to you? Only if you go into this expecting a Simulator and not a game. The only gameplay elements i.e. fights and boss battles are more annoying than challenging… Electronic Arts obviously knew thay had a short game here so rather than adding more gameplay they opted to make Superman weak and boss fights tedious to the brink of making you want to throw your controller. I did buy this the day it came out and I will probably keep it if only to get a feel of what it would be like if I really could fly around metropolis. I highly recommend renting this before making a purchase. There is alot of potential with this engine, let’s hope that EA/TIBURON makes use of it and expands on this.
Where to begin? Let me start by saying that ever since we were treated to ET on Atari, with rare exception, movie-based games have generally been pretty awful. The reason for that is simple, a developer knows that a product’s name will entitle it to a certain number of sales just because of the name. There’s no “extra-incentive” for you to inflate the budget of a product if you don’t expect to recoup that dollar amount in sales. ‘Superman Returns’, I really thought, wasn’t going to fall into that developer trend.
My expectations were raised, oddly enough, when the game was delayed and the demo was released. ‘Superman’ was originally supposed to come out in May of ’06 to coincide with the release of the feature film. When it was delayed, I mistakenly thought that was the staff at EA saying to itself, “OK, there’s more interest here then we thought, lets sink a little more time and effort into this one.” The game was subsequently pushed to November to match up with the film’s DVD release. Then the demo for the game hit xBox live and I was legitimately impressed. Metropolis was huge, the environment was interactive, the flight mechanics were solid; it reminded me of ‘Ultimate Spider-Man’, just with Superman. The graphics and the combat system were a little below-average, but I wrote that off as a problem they’re working on. It was just a demo after all, I expected it to be a little rough around the edges.
While nothing that I enjoyed about the game was changed, I’m disappointed to say that none of these issues I had were fixed for the game’s final release either. Not to mention, there’s very little to the game outside of the demo I played. Instead of using the extra time EA took to get ‘Superman’ released to add content, EA seemed to just seem to multiply what was there already. Just for example, there isn’t enough diversity in the enemies Superman will confront. You fight Metallo and his minions fairly early in the game. You’ll be fighting those same annoying robots the whole game. There are only about five or six actual boss fights in the game, none of whom I found particularly difficult. One of which is the same character twice! I’d have loved to have seen more of Supe’s rogues gallery.
There aren’t many side missions you have to distract yourself with either. It would have been awesome to involve more of Superman’s supporting cast to pass along side objectives. As I said before, there’s not more diversity, it’s as if they just doubled what was already there.
As far as the previous ‘Superman’ games go, this is definitely king of the hill. Some of those games were flat-out awful, this is at least playable. It’s just that I wish they took the nugget of a good thing they had going and fleshed it out a lot more. For now, it’s nothing more then a “… could of been.” Rent it if you want to check it out.
Superman Returns is based off the movie of the same name, with a little bit of added goodies. The story is basically Superman must take down Lex Luger while fighting off other villians of the Superman universe… interesting right.
Anyway, you control Superman (obviously). You can jump high into the sky and fly as high and fast as you like, but you can not just do a normal jump (lame). Moving on you can use heat vision, super breath, and freeze breath. You can throw enemies, fly, beat up more enemies, throw cars, fly….. yeah. Thats the whole premise for the game. There are these mini games with that. Mr. Xplyztk or whatever his name is… basically all it is is racing around metropolis, collecting 100 kittens (uh huh..), and playing as Bizaro for a limited amount of time to destroy Metropolis… it makes no sense, nor is it really fun.
While your fighting enemies, the city of Metropolis can take damage and lose health.. yeah, the city you are in can actually be destroyed and guess what? Once it loses all its health, your game is over and you have to start over. Thats real fun when a tree catches fire, cars are being blown up, citizens are being hurt and need to be brought to a nearby ambulance, and you have to fight about 500 enemies who seem to all have kryptonite all at once. In otherwords this games difficulty is ridiculously hard.
As you progress through S.R., you can gain experience which lets you gain levels. When you go up a level you get stronger heat vision and all that stuff.. Also you unlock different outfits which are all lackluster anyway and you probably could care less for them.
And the enemies you fight.. oh boy. First your fighting robots, then robots and dragons, then robots & dragons & some monsters. What the f…. whatever. It makes no sense… I mean, DRAGONS!? Come on.
The graphics are blarf besides the Superman character model & the city of Metropolis. Besides those two, everything else is just bad, blurry, and smudgey. Terrible for a 360 release.
Music.. is terrible and so is the voice acting. The only cool thing is when you’re flying for a bit and you break the sound barrier… thats it. Otherwise, once again, terrible for a 360 release.. even a game.
To be honest, I had higher hopes for this game but sadly it fell flat on it’s face. How can EA make such a smash hit like The Godfather, then make & release this vomit? Not even worth a rental.
…but failed to deliver! Superman is arguably one of the best comic book super heroes. I had such high hopes for Superman Returns. Unfortunately this game is by far the worst game I’ve played on Xbox 360. Viva Pinata and Lego Star Wars are better than this game. In fact I can honestly say this is the worst game I’ve EVER played. (and I have a pretty sizeable game library) I’ll start with the good, since there is so much wrong with this game.
Pros: 1) Breaking the sound barrier while flying. Hands down this is the best part of the game. If you want to experience this, download the demo on XBL.
2) Huge open ended city. This city is designed to be seen from a distance. If you look closely you’ll notice the programmers used copy and past for a lot of buildings and textures
3) Easy Xbox 360 achievement points. You can unlock all of the achievement points in about 12 hours of gameplay. (even less than that if you don’t go for the “12 hours of gameplay” achievement)
4) Ummm… that’s it!
Cons: 1) REPETATIVE!! The bad guys in between bosses are all the same! There’s no variety! The main bosses all have about 3 lines that they repeat over and over and over again! To quote Will Ferrell from Zoolander, “They’re all the same!! I feel like I’m taking crazy pills!”
2) Not fun! This is the greatest sin a video game can commit! The game started off fun, but after 6 hours of playing I’m so frustrated I can’t take it anymore. My wife even commented that it’s not even fun to watch.
3) Poor controls. The controls are great if you’re just flying around exploring the city, but once you get into a battle things quickly devolve. The lock on system is terrible. If you lock on to the wrong thing (a pedestrian or car instead of the bad guy) you can’t just cycle through the available things to lock on (like every other game where you can lock on to things) you have to unlock, get your curser right on the guy you want and try to lock on again. As bad guys are constantly moving this quickly becomes a game of trial and error. The super speed button is great when you start flying and want to go straight up. It’s also great for flying far above the city, but trying to use it while close to the ground or during a battle is horrid. For these situations it needs to be more of a gradual speed up. You’re going 20 mph one second and 200 the next. It’s very easy to fly right past your target and run into cars and buildings. That’s another complaint! If you’re superman, the man of steel, flying faster than the speed of sound and you run into a building, that building won’t stop you. You should fly right through that building, not the case with this game. You simply leave a small dent in the building as you come to a complete stop. It’s the same story while running and being completely halted by cars.
4) No story! In between fighting the same guys over and over you see clips from the movie. (They’re not really from the movie; it’s animated but the voice acting sounds like the stars from the movie)
5) Did I mention how repetitive this game is?
To sum things up, breaking the sound barrier is fun; everything else about this game is NOT! Now that Superman Returns is in the bargain bin, it MIGHT be worth it if you’re really hard up for quick easy achievement points. But those points come with a price; it may be the longest 12 hours you spend in front of your TV. For the same monetary price I’d recommend Lego Star Wars. It’s a lot more fun! The achievements take a lot longer and are a lot harder, but it is a truly fun game.
