Reviewer: Craig Gallagher The Mediocre Four.., oops sorry about that. I mean, the Fantastic Four is the latest film tie-in game that matches the expectations of anyone who has seen the film. Like the film the game features Mr Fantastic, Invisible Woman, The Thing and The Human Torch as the heroes and Sr. Doom as the megalomaniac they face off against.
What follows is a series of levels concerning little more than basing the same buttons over and over again. The control system is rudimentary with the same controls being used for each of the four characters. Worse still, during some pats of the game you are required to bash a few buttons and then watch vie in game video the action take place. You buy a game to play as the hero, not watch it happen. If that’s all you wanted, then you’d just watch the film.
Like the film, the game isn’t very good but you no doubt grasped that all ready. If you see the game in a store then ignore it in favour of last years Spiderman 2 game.
