XMen Legends is a realtime roleplaying game where players put together their own team of XMen heroes to combat such legendary foes as the Morlocks, Brotherhood of Mutants, and Sentinels. In true roleplaying game fashion, players control their group of XMen characters to take advantage of each individual's special powers and abilities while in combat. As each character becomes more experienced in battle, his or her powers will grow over time and new fighting moves become available to help the character develop into a more formidable opponent.

Players will assemble their party from a lineup of more than 15 characters, including popular favorites Wolverine, Cyclops, Storm, Nightcrawler, Colossus, Gambit, and Beast. Certain locales may require stealth to avoid alarm systems or traps, making Wolverine or Nightcrawler more valuable team members, while multiple enemies may be more quickly dealt with using the crushing power of Colossus or the Beast. Players will have to carefully weigh the pros and cons of each superhero before forming the party and beginning a mission.

Once a mission begins, players can switch control between the mutants at any time and can even implement combo moves between specific characters such as Wolverine's and Colossus' "fastball special" maneuver, which has Colossus picking up Wolverine and tossing him at a foe to dole out heavy damage. Up to four players can join in the adventuring together, working as a team or honing their superhero skills from within the Danger Room training ground. Man of Action, a fourman production company of veteran comic book authors, wrote the game's story line. ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide

    Pros: X-men RPG

    Cons: non so far.

    Like any X-men fan I couldnt wait to get my hands on this. I finally did yesterday, cleared my schedule and started playing. I am about 5 hrs in right now and the game has been great. The only game I can think of to compare it to is Kingdom Hearts.... The ability to switch and control different characters on the fly is awesome, something Kingdom Hearts lacked. The one drawback I have noticed so far is the invisible walls, which I hate in any game. However if you keep the map on the screen it shouldn't be an issue. Though my first impressions lead me to think it wont be as good as Kingdom Hearts it certainly wont disappoint. Non X-men fan and non-RPG fans should find some enjoyment in this game, but if you are an X-men fan and an RPG fan this is the game you have dreaming about. Read more Less

    Pros: kool graphics and sounds

    Cons: hard to finish objectives

    need more clues to help finish objectives too hard to figure out and u waste too much time walking around and they need more health on the levels.

    Given a little patience, however, X-Men Legends will reward you with a good storyline and fun gameplay. Numerous collectables and hidden items lend a lot of replay potential, which you'll also derive from focusing on the different mutant abilities available from the different X-Men. Read more
