This is one of the greatest games I have played this year. It brings fighting games to a new level. The fact that you are X men Characters are even better. I saw the midnight showing and was outside of Toys R us the next morning waiting to buy this game and it was well worth it. A must to any X Men fan. Can't wait for the Sequels and Prequels.

This is a very good game! I bought it right after I saw X-Men the movie and it was an excellent adaptation to the remarkable screen play. The characters even have the outfits that they had on in the movie. So if you like the X-Men you should love this game!

X-Men are taking over!

X-Men smash into your home in this flashy, and entertaining fighting game. The graphics are well above average, almost perfect, sleek, well detaild, interractive backgrounds, make it enoyable just to watch. character voice overs from the cast of the cartoon series, and easy to learn moves for the most part make it a must have. The only thing about the game i was not impressed with though is definately the very limited selection of mutant heros and villians to choose from. you can only pick from 6 to begin and have to unlock the other four evil mutants. I havn't played long enough to see if there are more characters but so far there's not many. but even with the small number of playable characters this game will surely be one of the hottest titles this summer and beyond.

The Best Fighting Game Out!

X-MEN Mutant Academy by far is one of the best fighting games I have ever played. The price is reasonable for any new release Playstation game, and it is well worth it based on all the extras this game offers. It will definitely make the bestsellers category and be affordable for anyone. The cast consists of Cyclops, Wolverine, Gambit, Storm, Beast, Phoenix, Toad, Mystique, Sabertooth, and Magneto. The graphics are the best yet and utilize all the resources the 32-bit playstation console offers. Each character has 2 different costumes and for all the characters from the X- MEN movie they get a bonus movie costume. There are 4 levels of play, Arcade, Versus, Survival, and Academy Mode. In Arcade mode you can play as your favorite X-MEN or Brotherhood Villain. In Versus, you can play head to head with your friends in a no limits grudge match to the end. Survival mode requires you to have perfected your mutant fighting skills in an endless match against everyone. The quicker you defeat your enemy the more health you are rewarded with, but just one KO and it is over. The most unique feature is the Academy mode where you can pick from the cast of characters and learn from Professor Charles Xavier himself how to use each of their fighting moves along with their mutant powers. X-MEN Mutant Academy also comes with a CEREBRO feature which enables you to see the movie trailer, movie pictures, behind the scenes shots, extra costumes, extra comic pictures, and various story mode intros, and outros for each character and then the final complete story with graphics that will blow you away. With all the extras, the different modes of combat, the awesome graphics, and the great mutant powers X-MEN Mutant Academy is by far the best fighting game out!

This one of the greatest games in figthing history.The graphics are good very good, the backgroung could use a few touch ups but the rest WoW! ^_^. Phoenix as never ever been in a game because she was temporaly on the show. But I faved her, she was a amazing her moves were awesome I swear her strongest limit break could help you kill Magneto because he can't avoid it. In children of the Atom It was hard to do there limit because the first part was a attack that would nearly everyone in the gsme had like iceman's icebeam is the same trigger to cyclops optic blast or storm's typhoone psilock's psi blast silver samuri 's shuriken( throwing star) omega red 's carborundum coil. I like it that you could switch between3 costumes ahd in other games you couldn't do that. But what I really adore about this games is that Phoenix is in it yah!

best fighting experience since X-Men: children of the atom

First of all X-men is what is called a good movie. The game has alot of the same elements as the movie. It has an excellent X-men movie trailer plus extras after you beat the game. My personal favorite mutant is Wolverine. He has excellent throwing skills and cool attacks that damage opponents. I am not a fan of combat games such as Mortal Kombat or Street Fighter, but this game rocks. My favorite place to battle is the danger room. In the Academy mode you train with a chosen mutant to learn their special moves. Survival mode is pretty much the same as Arcade Mode. Zerobro mode is where you can see the movie trailer and the movies you have earned. I think they could have made it a bit more challenging, but every game has its ups and downs. If you want to complete the game, you have to use all of the mutants. My suggestion is rent it first, then if you like as much as I do, purchase it.

I think I am in love

ah those X-men. this game is so much fun. how did I live without it? I will admit that the graphics could use updating but it moves smoothly. Dull backgrounds. Fun powers and characters. lack of movies and story.

Awesome!

I went out and bought this title and I was quite surprised when I started playing it. First of all, the graphics are pretty impressive considering PlayStation being a 32 bit system. The character textures are very well done but the fighting backgrounds lack some detail. You can choose from 10 X-Men characters, 6 of them are the good guys, 4 of them are bad guys (and gals). I was a little bummed that there were only 10 playable characters but I didn't get bored using all of them. Second, the sound is excellent. The voiceovers were well done. It sounded like the voices from the X-Men animated series. The Academy option isn't that good, you just learn how to pull off different moves. The Cerebro option is cool because you can watch the movie trailer and view quite a few comic book pics and some pics from the movie. You can also unlock some character movies and some extra costumes. All in all, I think this game is worth buying and it is pretty entertaining.
