Iron Man 2 Review: You Might Have to Be Iron Man to Play It
Story: 3.0 / 10.0
Story: 3.0 / 10.0
You might sometimes skip this section of a review to avoid spoilers. However, fear not because there will be no spoilers here. Unfortunately, this is mostly because there is pretty limited story included in Iron Man 2. Some bad guys steal a copy of your virtual butler in order to develop a brand new weapon. You need to stop them. Fly - explode them. That's about it.
Music: 6.0 / 10.0
The music is decent and contributes to the game. However, the real treat is the voice acting of Samuel L. Jackson and Don Cheadle. However terrible they may look in the game, it is nice to see that SEGA dropped a little cash to get some authentic voices in the game. Otherwise, the music and sound is a little unremarkable.
Replay Value: 4.0 / 10.0
You can go back through the game and play levels as either Iron Man or War Machine. However, you probably won't want to. The RPG aspects of the game are easy to forget because you can complete the game in the same general upgrade level that you start with. The game isn't hard at all to begin with and there is really no reason to revisit this game a second time.
Overall Rating: 5.0 / 10.0
It's pretty simple to rate this game. It can fill up a Saturday afternoon if you have some time to kill but want to go see a movie by 7:00. However, it probably won't be long before this game is delegated to the bargain bin and you won't have any problem finding used copies. Die hard Iron Man fans might give the game a try (it's miles above the original Iron Man game) but real gamers will notice the game's flaws from start to finish.
