iron man review

Customer Rating:
Marvel is marvel, This game is in the average of its kind. It has action, graphics and story but nothing amazing. It is for marvel's fans like me

OK game

Customer Rating:
This game is not great not bad just OK. There is little to no challenge because as Iron Man you cant die. All that can happen to you is that your weapons or armour energy depleats but that can be eaisly fixed. The missions are easy and dissapointing. I completed this game with ease and feeling that I wasnt challenged with this game. It has good graphics however and good sound and I think if your a fan of Iron Man you might enjoy this regardlees. I got this for Chirstmas so i dont know how much it was but if I wouldve payed more than $20 id say its not worth it. Overall its Ok so if you wanna give it a try, go ahead unless you like a challenge.

Simply Slag...

This game seems like it would be decent enough, but I found it hard to get into. The challenge is really in control, which I found less than adequate, and the enemies were not very challenging. Graphics were not too bad, especially considering the device, but without the fun factor, this was really a waste of time.

I think their are better games out there based on comic books, even though the movie tie in with this one makes it worth checking out. Overall, while the graphics give it some reprise, overall, this game stinks, with a ridiculous story line, and ho hum gameplay.

I would not recommend this at all, unless you are a die hard iron fanboy, of course... and then I would be hard pressed to do so.

Iron Man: an okay game

Customer Rating:
This is a pretty good game, but it just dont really last, I beat it in a day and a half.

The graphics are pretty good for a psp game, although some things look better than others. The controls are also pretty good, but sometimes they can get alittle hard to use.There is five weapons in the game, repulsors, missles, rockets, machine gun and pulse rifle. Missles and rockets are basicly the same thing, except rockets are easier to fire and you can fire quite a few at once[depends on level]. Missles are a slightly slower, stronger variant of the rockets, but also miss more often. The machine gun and pulse rifle works similarly as well. Pulse=less ammo, bigger punch. You can guess what the machine gun does then.

There is not to many levels in the game, some can be long and huge while others are short,small. The final boss is to easy, when compared to the other boses he's the easiest.

Like what has been said, there is seven suits to use, but none really do anything. Bonus content is nothing all the special, there is a few trailers and stuff, and some concept art that you can unlock by finding hidden weapon crates in most levels. The "races" are okay, but the difficulty needs to be balanced out some. The levels where you are timed on how many enemies you can kill in a set amount of time is also, needs to be rebalanced too.

This game is a decent buy, but when[or if] you get it dont expect a long game, enjoy what it has, because you probably will if you even just enjoy the character of iron man.

solid rental

I agree with almost everything the first reviewer wrote.
I don't believe the value can be compared to other games of the same price so I would wait until it's around the $20 range. Or what you can do is rent it for like a week. You should be able to beat the game at normal in that time frame. I am a fan of Iron Man and I enjoyed the movie so of course I'm going to check out the video game for the PSP. Be aware that a lot of the published video clips to video game websites and even Amazon.com shows you the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 version of the game. If you want to see the PSP version, I would suggest going to YouTube and make sure there are no watermarks from the source of the video. Chances are, it's not the PSP version. I thought controlling Iron Man was pretty decent. Flying is fun but you don't get a large enough environment to really indulge in it. I like the repulser rays and machine guns but I have a problem with the rockets. I guess realistically, it takes a while for it to go off so maybe it shouldn't be a real complaint but in terms of action gaming, that could be annoying. Your suit weapons get upgraded so maybe later on in the game, you get a more rapid firing rocket launcher. It's still cool to actually play as Iron Man and do everything you know he's capable of doing. I thought the missions were diverse enough to keep your fun factor active. It wasn't all run and gun but lets face it, Iron Man is all about heavy artillery so you want to maximize that for your own leisure. The graphics are OK but at least they put a lot of detail around the Iron Man and the animation is pretty cool no matter what action he's taken. I'm giving it 3 out of 5 simply because it is a pretty decent game but I know for a fact that it has the potential to be greater. There are 3rd person action games on the PSP market that are better. Maybe if RockStar or Sony Bend developed the game, it would've been a lot better.
By the way, the voice acting is rubbish. What makes that sad is that they're the same critically acclaimed actors from the movie. I think if you're a fan of Iron Man then you should rent it first and then decide for yourself weather you want to follow through with the purchase.
