This has to be the best X-Men game of all time. With up to 15 characters, that are all upgradable, how could you go wrong. Not to mention that the co-op mode with some friends is the best aspect of the game, this game is so much fun!!! This is the X-Men game we've been waiting for for a long time. So go pick it up because this game will not dissapoint.

Awesome for multiple people; not as much fun by yourself

Me and three other friends spent about four late nights playing this game. We had a blast. You get too choose from pretty much all your favourite X-Men. I enjoy going smashy, smashy so I chose Rogue at first and later Colossus after we unlocked him.

With four people there was the usuall map problems with people getting stuck and I'm famous for going the wrong way, but despite these expexted flaws the game was great.

Xtremely Xtra Xcellent!!!

X-men Legends opens up an exiting, skill-testing, and beautifully designed window to the X-men world. Every character has their own type of power from Wolfie's claws to Jean Grey's mental power. Since a character has his or her own category of power,(Mental, Weapon, Strength, ect.), they also have unique abilities to go along with as well. I love how some of the characters can fly amd the fact that you can acually play as Proffesor Xavier in some levels! After playing it for a while you really feel like you are part of the game. You can save at different spots throughout the level you are playing. These spots are marked by a big blue X. You can also revive players that have fallen. Charaters level up during gameplay by fighting well and defeating enemys. I got to see another side of my favorite super-heroes that I had never seen before. I hope the same for you.

The best x-men game.

IT HAS BEEN THE BEST GAME I EVER PLAYED. FOR MARVEL HAS ALLWAYS BEEN VERY DIFICULT TO MAKE A GAME CAUSE WE ALLWAYS HAVE GREAT EXPECTACIONS ABOUT EVERY THING THEY DO AND THE PROBLEM HAS ALLWAYS BEEN THE X MEN GAMES THEY WERE REALLY TERRIBLE OR VERY DIFFICULT OR BORING OR JUST THREE OR FOUR CHARACTERS BUT THIS ONE IS THE BEST GAME EVER YOU CAN CHOOSE FROM GAMBIT TO EMMA FROST TO MAGMA I REALLY LOVE IT EVERY THING IS PERFECT CONGRATULATIONS MARVEL HOPE YOU COULD MAKE THE SECOND PART.

Gameplay is cool, but the game is a little on the easy side and way too short. It makes a better rental.

legends is awesome

when i got legends it took me awhile to get used to the controls. but once i did it was all easy from there. basicly its about a new mutant knowed as magma but it is also about the enternal strugle between x-men the brotherhood and the morlocks. the best part is they show every costume of every x-men from pheonix to human beast. but to play as jugarnaut and three diffrent types of sentinal is cool to. i wont give away everything for fear of a toungelash from toad

it rocks

Yes, I loved this game, and I like the comic book genre in general.

Some things I liked:
1) Danger room! Very fun. Wish I had found all the 'CDs' scattered throughout every level.
2) Large array of charcters, but there were still problems (see below).
3) Good use of voices, Patrick Stewart, that chick from the Wonder Years, and Ed Asner were welcome suprises.

Some problems I had with the game:

1) Too easy. Use the 'big 4' (Wolverine, Storm, Iceman, Cyclops) throughout and you'll breeze through this thing, with maybe one or two hiccups on the way. They could fix this by:
2) Stop the level-up of characters that weren't on the mission. It doesn't make sense to me. I'm not sure exactly how it worked, but I didn't play with Jubilee until one level where I decided to mess around, and she was already a level 20, without even trying her once. Weird. I think the game could have been made more fun/challenging if you had to work on increasing the levels of ALL the players so that later on. That way you may need, say, a powerful Jean Grey to get through a mission, but it'd be more difficult because all you used was the same 4 characters. But to have the non-playing characters piggy-back is dumb, in my opinion. This could be easily solved by having each character go through the danger-room, have a checklist of the characters that have and haven't completed it.
3) Wayyy to easy to get a special powerup/armors by breaking boxes or killing guys. I think 15-20 of those 'Green powerups' would have been plenty, or at least make it so you can't purchase the rare ones from Forge at any time (though you can get the character-unique ones, and the super-powerful one in the danger room sequences). It could have beeen organized a bit better too.

That said, I did enjoy playing the game and beating it, took about 2 weeks (20 hours of gameplay). Looking forward to (hopefully) an improved sequel. Just make the game tougher (or at least with difficulty settings this time)!
