This is a great x men game. You get to chose between Gambit, Wolverine, Cyclops, Psylocke, and Beast. The story line is Apocalypse has taken over Genosha, a mutant slave island and the x men are trying to save the mutants. The game makers were also able to put many popular villans in the game, like the Brood, Juggernaut, Sentinels, Exodus, Magneto, and Omega Red. The graphics and gameplay are good. This is a very challenging game, however. Overall, this game made very good on its X men license. I own every x men console game except the fighting games as far as I know of, and this is the 2nd best, right behind x men 2 clone wars for sega. That game is even harder. Get this game, expecially if you are an x men fan.

This game is great for any x men fan it is a little difficult but very fun you can choose from 5 different X men to play as. cyclops, wolvereine, Beast, gambit, and ?????. there are 15 stages with bosses scatered though out them. It is a great game for anyone over the age of 5 years old. I do not know the condistion this game is in but i have one at home and i highly suggest for you.
Capcom makes a too easy, yet fun game!!

Some (like girls who are X-Men fans) may complain that Jean Grey, Rouge, and Storm were not playable characters and call these X-Men games very sexest, but you got Psylocke - what more do you want!? It would be nice to have them, but Jean, Rouge, and Storm would be unfair because they can fly and are too powerful. If they were included in the game, developers would have to dramtically limit their powers (to make them well balance with other X-Men) and that would piss off gamers.
Anyways, I got this game in Christmas 1994 and boy was I excited. I am a hardcore X-Men fan and since many other console Marvel Comics games had huge flaws in the past (such as Silver Surfer for NES and Arcade's Revenge for SNES and Genesis, just to name a few), Capcom did a wonderful job with this one here. Its a side scroller, beat'em up game with each of the five X-Men (Cyclops, Wolverine, Beast, Psylocke, and Gambit) with unique combos, powers, and abilities that allows you to choose which X-Men is beneficial for a certain level. It starts off when you have to go through Genosia for the first several stages by fighting different clones of Genosian goons, alien Broods, Brood Queen, Tusk, and finally facing Apocalypse, giving gamers the impression that he's the last boss until Magneto taps into Cerebo computer (in story mode). Very innovative that the first and last stages were unique for each X-Men! Only flaws about this game is that gameplay is a bit slow, some X-Men's special attacks and powers (e.g. Cyclop's Optic Blasts and Psylocke's flying knee kick) are slow responsive, and that the game was too short and easy. A 6 year old can beat this game without relying on a password (password will not give you the special ending of which your playable X-Men reunites with other X-Men).
I like this game alot and if you're a X-Men fan who does'nt have it, get it! Thats all I have to say. Please ignore the sequel (sort of), Marvel: War of the Gems due to its simular, but slow and crappy gameplay.
