Good game, if you like superheros!
I thought it looked bad, but when I started playing, me and my brother couldn't stop till' the end! good game overall, a superhero fan must get (if you like the movies!)

Fantastic? Hardly. Borderline Passable? Sure.
F4: Rise of the Silver Surfer is a pretty mediocre movie tie-in game. The best way to sum this game up would be to think of it as an extremely watered-down version of Marvel Ultimate Alliance, but of course you only play as the F4. Every member of the F4 is on the screen at the same time and you can switch to anyone whenever you want. Cool. Plus it's 4 player co-op which is also pretty cool. While I do like the fact that the story is interwoven before and during the movie, actually UNDERSTANDING it is a tougher problem, as it makes little to no sense at all. The graphics for the game and character models are, I think, very good but the whole problem is that it's all wasted on repetitive corridors and rooms so you really can't appreciate it all that much. The powers of the F4 are pretty cool too (except for Mr. Fantastic, his powers are ridiculously lame) but then again it's just SO limited because they only get 4 powers each and all you can do is make each of the 4 powers stronger. You can't change up their powers or anything like that so you're stuck with the same ones from beginning to end. But the thing that I thought was REALLY cool concerning their powers is the fact that you can combine them for some super powerful attacks. These are very cool and definitely one of my few positives about the game. Controls are super simple, you'll have no problem learning them and the sound effects and music are generic and mediocre. The length of the game is also kind of short so if you really wanted to you can complete it in a day. Honestly, if you're interested in this game then pick it up on the super cheap. It's not a bad afternoon time killer with some friends BUT that's ALL it is, an afternoon time killer. Actually it's pretty good too if you wanna pick up some easy achievement points.

Wow
you guys are mentally challeneged, the first game stunk. The camera was shotty and seemed to have a mind of its own, barel any combos to be used, and the bosses/enemiees in general were meant for kids. I expect no less of a dissapointment from this one

Sweet
The first game was alright i thought...i think they should put the spiderman type gameplay though. it should be more open ended so you could cruse the city and fight crime or do a mission.

Co-op!
Finally a multi-player platform game with co-op.... Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was a big dissappointment without co-op... but there has been announced that this game willl have 4 player-co-op and i'm 99percent sure that its online co-op... not just on console. This should be interesting.

great game
should be the best super hero game and hopefully it is better then SPIDER-MAN 3 the only thing that was good about that game was the slow motion fighting style .fantastic four was a really great game when thefirst game came out hopefully the second one is better

Movie based games..mmm
Personally I've never and will never like Movie games. The storyline to a game is half the fun, even if the gamplay is amazing. Now something like Spider-man or even Superman where you have some freedom would more than likely have a little replay value, but with a game like this...you would just have to love this type of gameplay after seeing the movie, which I would hope anyone playing this did....COME ON The Silver surfer is in it!

Could be a hit!?!
Everything I've heard so far about this game looks promising. Torch's gameplay is suppossed to be innovative. I hope it's better than the Spidey 3 disastor, all this hype and it just turned out only OK from reviews I've seen. Honestly I'm hoping for a Ultimate Alliance STYLE game.

Whatever
The last FF4 game wasn't THAT bad. It was in need of some major improvements, but what superhero game doesn't need improvements after the 1st try at it? I think it is at least a renter to see what it has going for it.
