Inspired by the 2006 feature film directed by Bryan Singer, Superman Returns features an openended Metropolis spanning 80 square miles of bustling activity. The Man of Steel begins the game with his superpowers fully intact, including flight, xray vision, heat vision, super hearing, super strength, super speed, and super breath. How players use these powers within the urban setting is up to them. Cars can be completely melted or simply cut into, objects can be blown out of harm's way or frozen in place, and more. The story line follows Superman as he returns to Earth after a fiveyear sabbatical in space. The city he loves is in constant peril from the likes of Metallo, Parasite, and the indomitable Lex Luthor.

The action takes place from a thirdperson perspective as players complete storydriven missions, engage in minigames, and rescue people from imminent danger. Since Superman is nearly invincible, his success is tied to the level of collateral damage experienced by the good citizens of Metropolis. Players must be actively involved in saving pedestrians from runaway trains, tornados, collapsing buildings, and much more. If the city or its populace suffers, Superman will be unable to continue. The game's storybased objectives combine events from the film with new sequences, often involving the superhero tackling archvillains in stages specifically devoted to a lone enemy and its lackeys. Superman Returns also features an original orchestral soundtrack and voice acting from the film's principal actors, including Kevin Spacey, Kate Bosworth, and newcomer Brandon Routh. ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide

    The best superman game, but still no good.

    By Zac C  Dec 3, 2006 | 0 out of 1 found this Superman Returns: The Video Game review helpful

    Pros: big city, get to use all supermans powers, classic villens, some moments from the movie

    Cons: stroey is mostley boring fluff, missions repeat, combat is lame, boss battles are no fun, the city is boring,fells unpolished and rushed

    It's the best superman game, but it's still bad and a wast of money. The storey starts off on a good foot, but then gets lost in borning meaningless fluff hardly folows the movie. The action has a sub par fighting system is shallow and not so... super. Supermans powers aall here, but at times not easey to hit your target or use it right. The city althoe bosting superman landmarks, just feels emptey with notihng going on but the task at hand. The mission interface repeats way to often. You don't get to do much cool missions. Boss fights are just unfun. Like if they make a fier you have to go out of your way to put it out. Meaning serching the city for water, then going back, put it out and rejoin the fight. The boss wasnt just siting there either. NO FUN AT ALL. Superman returns fells rushed and is unpolished.If you want to buy this and ignore me, but remember you been warned. Read more Less

    The best thing the game has going for it is the excellent orchestrated soundtrack that plays in the background. Read more
