Default X-Men: The Official Game (PC, GameCube, Xbox, PlayStation 2, Xbox 360)

X-Men: The Official Game



Co-written by Zak Penn, the screenwriter of movies X2: X-Men United and
X-Men: The Last Stand, and legendary comic book writer Chris Claremont,
X-Men: The Official Movie Game immerses players in an original storyline
that provides the back-story for the upcoming X-Men: The Last Stand feature
film. For the first time ever, the game enables players to truly command
the powers of popular characters from the X-Men movie universe by allowing
players to assume the roles of Wolverine, Nightcrawler, and Iceman as they
wield and upgrade their signature powers and maneuver through unique
environments designed to showcase their Super Hero abilities. Assisted by
other X-Men characters, players will use an advanced control scheme to
master and control the characters like never before as they unleash
Wolverine's combat rage, experience Nightcrawler's acrobatics and
teleportation powers, and glide through the air on Iceman's ice slide.

Features:
~~~~~~~~~
* Become three legendary heroes - Players will immerse themselves in the
signature powers of their favorite X-Men heroes -- hack and slash with
Wolverine's brute strength to decimate foes; as Nightcrawler, players
will scale walls, spin and BAMF through environments to stay one step
ahead of enemies; and experience incredible speed on Iceman's ice slide
while shooting ice beams and creating hailstorms to freeze the
opposition. For even more power, players can utilize fury and adrenaline
modes to launch devastating attacks.
* Experience events leading up to the X-Men: The Last Stand feature film
and play beyond - Players will experience epic Super Hero action as the
game explains Nightcrawler's mysterious absence from the movie, and
in-game events foreshadow the roles of the X-Men and Brotherhood in the
film. The game's climactic ending sets the stage for the movie with
intersecting characters and storylines intersecting.
* Become a part of the X-Men movie universe - Embark on aglobe-spanning
conflict that delivers every element of the X-men universe-from costumes
and enemies to the voice of Patrick Stewart. Explore Alkali Lake, the
Statue of Liberty, Dark Cerebro and more.
* Battle fierce enemies, join forces with X-Men comrades - Face off against
villains from both the movie and beyond as favorite X-Men allies join
forces with the player in gameplay that includes melee fighting,
stealth-style action and time-based missions.
* Experience gameplay environments specifically designed to showcase each
character's Super Hero abilities - Uniquely engineered environments
empower players to use different gameplay strategies as they harness
their Super Hero powers and defeat enemies. Players will have ultimate
control over their heroes as they improve their superpowers over time
through the Mutant Evolution System.

================================================== ============================

Will post screenies of the 4-cd pc version first later
There are rumors though that there's going to be a dvd pc version

Sounds cool and that but I don't really have high hopes for games based and released simultaneously with the same movie. Most of them come out bland and uninspiring since their just basically cashing in. Anyhow, thanks for the info...

Sidenote: Looking at the files and the directory structure, it's easy to convert the cd version to a dvd versionÂ*

Edit: Successfully converted the 4-cd version to dvd . Now it's easier for me to install

For me, it took some time to get the right gamepad configuration nga comfortable ko especially with Iceman.
Ang ganahan gyud nako nga dad-on kay si Nightcrawler especially with his "Teleport to Enemy" button
Murag mas daghan sad og combo imong mabuhat with Nightcrawler.
Although enjoy kaayo ang game, taman pa ko sa Generator Room (after the first mission ni Nightcrawler). Mao nang wala na gyud nako nadula kaayo ang Heroes of Might and Magic.
