    If you can get past Iron Man’s head-scratching learning curve, what are you left with? A game that’s far from perfect, but still better than a lot of movie and comic book tie-ins that have come before ( *wink* Catwoman).

    Even fans of the comic won’t have fun with this piece. At the beginning, the permanent explosions are quite entertaining, but soon they get as boring as the monotony of a firing machine gun. No, thanks!

    Iron Man for the PC is another casualty in the sad and lengthy history of failed movie-game tie-ins.

    A PS2 port, when there's an Xbox 360 version? This is a dreadful example of shameless corner cutting and an awful game. [Aug 2008, p.107]

    He can fly! And that'd be about it - Iron Man can't jump, climb the ladder or pick any Goddamned thing. When the novelty of flying wears off, all that remains is a very disappointing shooter lacking any challenge. Oh, and I saw much prettier games on PlayStation 2. [July 2008]

    Don't shell out for ol' shellhead. The action-figure is more fun. [Aug 2008, p.79]

But it'sIron Man is one of those quick money generator type of games except the console versions, which are trying to become an actual game. But it's sort of fun. Just don't buy this game for a high price for your pc.
    -the graphics are the main offender here. The back cover of my copy looked great (except for one specific screenshot)
    -flying feels a little off
    -voice acting is worse than RE2 for ps1
    -let's not forget the fact that this was a game based of off the movie just to earn some more like the other games on pc spider-man 2,Shrek 2 (y-yeah) and Transformers.    … Expand

    Oh my god, I didn't though that such rubbish even cant be produced. Yes this is a movie license game, yes we all know that such games usuallyOh my god, I didn't though that such rubbish even cant be produced. Yes this is a movie license game, yes we all know that such games usually suck, but at least they were playable. This game is raw: -the graphics are ugly, it's 2008 not 2005.
    -cut scene are ugly, characters very weakly similar to they movie analogies .
    - game play is weak( it mostly consist of "go from point A to point b"). Locations are poor and uncreative, AI is stupid.
    - controls are very uncomfortable.
    So please save your money and time don't rentbuy this game, if you want to play a superhero game play Batman:Arkham Asylum.    … Expand
