Everything here is just right! Spiderman and the X-Men rounds out to be a great overall action package, definitely recommended.
Hyper Issue 1 Hyper Issue 1 SNES David Wildgoose 62% But a few plays later you'll be bored. Why? Because it's soulless and has no atmosphere. Having so many different levels and characters may seem like a good idea but it doesn't hang together to create a satisfying game. I would have preferred to have just one or two characters (Storm and Spidey) and have them developed a lot further.
Hyper Issue 1 Hyper Issue 1 Mega Drive Andrew Humphreys 62% If you're a Mega Drive owner with a fetish for super heroes, give this one a miss and go for either Spiderman or The X-Men on their own. Both are better games than Arcade's Revenge. The X-Men is probably the pick of the two (because it's slicker and for two players), but even the old Spidey game stacks up against this.
