  1. Not as good as the first game, but far more enjoyable in multiplayer than in single-player mode.
  2. Still, it’s a solid rental and a good way to spend some time having a bit of fun. If you really want to kick ass as the Fantastic 4, go play Marvel: Ultimate Alliance.
  3. The whole thing is just completely unexciting and even laborious at times.
  4. The bland environments, boring stages, repetitive enemies, and easily exhausted powers make the Fantastic Four feel more like a fantastic chore or just a fantastic bore.

  1. what the **** is wrong with "Digital Entertainment News". This is by far the most cheap and boring game I played the day I put it on my TV that day. Its horribly pathetic and fjkasuioghas9h Expand

    When i saw this on the shelves i thought "this looks like its gonna be a good game", i have 2 sons, my eldest is 14 and my youngest is 10, we all played this game and thoght it was pants. The gaming engine within the ps3 should excite the producers of the games that are comming out for this platform but it seems that they have only gone half way with this one. When are they going to realise that the concept of "press a button to open the door then kill some badies then press a button to open the door then kill some badies etc etc is not what we want any more. Graphicly it looked reasonable but the charactor movements were inconsistent and sometimes were very annoying. I know a lot of work goes into making games but to be honest its not just about the work that goes into making these things its about the thought that goes into the story behind the game. When your paying top prices for games you expect a little bit more than this. Expand
