At $10, I think it's worth it, provided you can get past the annoyances. Once you have a handle on the sloppy controls, it's actually pretty good. And I think I got it around $15 with shipping on eBay. <BR/><BR/>Matt: Absolutely agreed. I was going to mention GTA at some point in this post (with regard to how missions proceed) but realized it was redundant, but I agree totally. If Metropolis or Gotham were styled like Liberty City--a fictional locale that nonetheless feels like a real place (no doubt partly because it's <I>based</I> on a real place).Tom Fosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13796424725228769265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13848504.post-41342269920301884082008-08-25T11:20:00.000-05:002008-08-25T11:20:00.000-05:00I think that, in this console generation, games li...I think that, in this console generation, games like this should take a lot of cues from Grand Theft Auto IV. Liberty City -feels- like a real city, and bystanders act like people would. <BR/><BR/>The problems I had with Spider-Man 2, Spider-Man 3, and Ultimate Spider-Man were the random events. Basically there were five or six of them that you would ALWAYS see, and one or two that would show up sometimes, depending on where you were in the city (i.e., being near water could trigger a mission where you have to save people on a boat, made all the more frustrating by the fact that Spider-Man can't swim). There needs to be more variety in these kinds of things, or after an hour you're just bored. I'm glad to see that Superman Returns, for all of it's flaws, tried to fix that if nothing else.<BR/><BR/>Personally, I would love to see a Batman game with all of the variety needed in a game like this and all of the care, detail, and polish put into GTA. A free-roam Batman game that was actually good would make me a very happy man.<BR/><BR/>-MMatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05910006954704396801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13848504.post-35156451960361167732008-08-24T09:11:00.000-05:002008-08-24T09:11:00.000-05:00A local shop has the Superman Returns PS2 game (wh...A local shop has the Superman Returns PS2 game (which I figure is a version of the one you're talking about, if not the same) for about $10.
