Platinum #171: X-Men Origins: Wolverine

Hey there!

As a huge comic – and especially Wolverine – fan I was interested in playing this game since many years but it turned out that this game is hard to get in Austria. Finally I was able to pick up a copy of this game at a Gamestop.

When I started the game I was surprised by the graphics. Even the game has already been released in 2009, the graphics are still awesome. Especially the cutscenes look really great.

Storywise you’re loosely following the story of the movie. If the movie would’ve been as brutal as this game, it would have been a great movie. It’s exactly how a Wolverine game has to be. You don’t have to forget that he’s the best in what he does, and what he does isn’t very nice! ;-) So you’re fighting / killing your way through lots of enemies within the 5 chapters and take out some mini-bosses as well as some iconic Marvel characters. Even it’s just button smashing most of the time, it never got boring.

Thropywise you’ve to play through the game on normal and hard, max out your character, get some collectibles and kill lots of enemies in various ways. This doesn’t sound that bad but unfortunately there’s no NG+. This means that you have to beat the game on normal to unlock hard mode, do a lot of grinding, and afterwards you have beat game again. This time on hard. Luckily you’ll know most of the levels very well then, which means that you can ignore lots of enemies and just speed run through most of the sections. You can also skip all cutscenes now. All in all it will take approx. 20 hours to get the Platinum Trophy.

I can really recommend this game to any comic / hack and slash fans. You won’t be disappointed!

Yours,
AvengedEvil
