Fantastic Four - Gamecube, PC, PS2 and Xbox Game Review

Dec 27, 2006

The Fantastic Four are bashing their way through bad guys in the new Fantastic Four movie and now they have their own video game! You can get this super hero action game for the Gamecube, PC, PS2 and Xbox. What's it all about, and how do the Fantastic Four score on the Kidzworld game-o-meter? Gary's got the scoop!

Fantastic Four Video Game Basics

It's clobberin' time! The Fantastic Four video game is all about smashing your way past robots, super villains and thugs by using teamwork. You can control the whole Fantastic Four team in a level and switch between them as you play. Each character also has a special mini-game to let you tear stuff apart, burn something up and more.

Fantastic Moves for the Fantastic Four

The coolest part of this game is the combat moves. You can power-up each character's attacks, pull combo moves with the rest of the Fantastic Four, and even unlock super mode for some serious butt-kicking. The horde of mini-games that are all over the place are great too!

Superhero Suckiness in Fantastic Four

The worst part about this game is that the controls feel clumsy. Moving around is awkward and stepping on special move circles can be frustrating. The levels are pretty blah too, there are lots of thugs to thump, but they're missing something.

Can the Fantastic Four Save the Day?

If you're looking for a simple game to play with your friends, it's good fun! It's a bit weak for a single player but arena battles and cooperative mode are great for multiple players.

Fantastic Four Thumbs Up:

  • Upgradeable power moves.
  • Mini-games for each character.
  • Arena battles to test your skills.
  • Control all four Fantastic Four members at once.
  • Lots of super villains to battle.
  • Fantastic Four Thumbs Down:

  • The controls are clumsy.
  • Ho-hum levels.
  • Sue Storm and Johnny Storm are weak.
  • Fantastic Four Game Rating:
