Title: Good concept, horrible execution
Product review: Fanboy that I am, I really wanted to like this game. The creators do a good job of capturing the excitement of being Superman and flying around Metropolis--as much fun at times as being Spider-man in his excellent games. However, that flying is about as fun as it gets. The combat is horrible with the player fighting the same enemy types at the last level encountered in the first level. An attempt is made to tie the game into the mediocre movie, but the player is never saving Lois or fighting Lex Luthor. The huge boss battle at the end is against a tornado. Seriously. The game also suffers from being short--easily beaten in six hours or less.If you're a fanboy like me, rent it and get it over with, but you'll be returning it to the store the next day. Saying that this is the best Superman game ever isn't saying much considering that there still hasn't been a good Superman game made.
