“In X-Men: The Official Game, players will experience the events leading up to
the ‘X-Men: The Last Stand’ feature film,” said Will Kassoy, vice president of
global brand management, Activision, Inc. “Co-written by Zak Penn, the
screenwriter of the film, and legendary comic book writer Chris Claremont, and
featuring the voice talent of Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, Shawn Ashmore and
Alan Cumming, the game truly enables players to become a part of the X-Men movie
universe .”
For the first time, X-Men: The Official Game lets players truly experience the
powers of three popular Super Heroes from the X-Men movie universe by allowing
them to take on the roles of Wolverine, Nightcrawler and Iceman as they wield
and upgrade their signature powers and maneuver through unique environments

scheme to master and control the characters as they unleash Wolverine’s combat
rage, experience Nightcrawler’s acrobatics and teleportation powers and glide
through the air on Iceman’s ice slide.

Heh, you forgot crapy console controls, crapy console menu systems, crapy console text )big enough to to see 15 feet from your monitor) and shitty development mentally that treats console gamers as stupid.
I.e. Oblivion's constant popup messages revealing every plot point, never allowing gmaers to think for themselves or choose to open the Journal on your own if you can't figure something out.
Btw Speaking of shitty console ports, I just finished Condemned, had potiental but with the shitty job Monlilith did porting and possibly the worst ending for a game ever(?).
Pitty really they have made some great games, well now they have the worst they ever made PC Condemned.
