Played the demo and wasn't satisfied with the results. The biggest problem amoung othe problems: Controls. To me they weren't tight. Long and short rage combat blew and graphics were lack luster (for a next gen game). It's looks like a ps2 game, really.
5/10

I just sent this back to gamefly. Like most movie games this one looks like crap and plays almost as bad. There is some fun to be had in the game, but lack of variety makes it hard to identify.

Well I ended up downloading the demon and oh my God...it sucked. I'm not even going to rent it now. Not worth the time or the money, I felt like I was playing as Iron Man like he was in the movie, and what I mean is frickin' invincible. The overall design for iron man and some other things wasn't horrible but the level design was crap...and the demo starts you off on the side of a fairly steep cliff. Flying was kind of useless since it's basically just a faster version of hovering except it's harder to control and you can't shoot while in the mode. You can rape anything in your way with B and you have no trouble getting right up to it. My armor seemed to flash whenever I got critically hit but it didn't seem to affect me overall. The only thing I liked was the terrorists continually shoot at you and it just bounces off so you can slowly approach them, but they're stupid ass AI so they just stand there.

Ah, my bad. Thought it was limited to when you hover. In any case it doesn't matter.
Another thing crappy is Iron man looks feckin' unatural when he runs.

Let's face it, it was never going to be anything other than what it is.
Personally? I won't lay out £39 for the game, I can mess around on the demo. If it goes down to mega cheap, I'll buy it, cos I like superhero games. Nothing's touching Spider-Man 2 or The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction, though. That's definitely the template for those games now, that sandbox style.
Of course, now we just have to wait for a co-op online Marvel game in the kind of massive environments that Grand Theft Auto and Crackdown are based in, where you can be any heroes or villains you want within reason, and play through the game accordingly. Imagine flying around as Iron Man while a friend swings through the city as Spidey, or gliding through as Magneto while someone else is Sabretooth.
