You will take out groups of targets, then move on to destroy a super weapon or to fight a supervillain. Each level seems to be copied from the same template. Once the difficulty spike hits the things turn sour. The games horrible difficulty spike midway through the game almost forces the player into this mechanic for the duration of the experience.įor this reason, Iron Man is only moderately entertaining, and it only remains so for the first few hours of gameplay.

Being efficient at combat is very limiting and destroys the fun factor with tedium. The best tactic ends up being to hover over enemies and spam your repulsor while you wait for the missile attack to recharge and dodging the missiles the enemies fire in return. The fast flying fun that players are looking for is not a very effective way of dispatching enemies. The gameplay trips overs itself in many spots. The game’s implementation of Iron Man’s signature missiles and repulsor beam are very useful but not very fun to use. IRONMAN - 6.7 OUT OF 10 YOU ARE THE ONE MAN ARMY.The games combat however, is not as well done. Ironman is probably just brainless fun, I mean it is not a total dud after all it does have some good features which make it worth a look but in the end it just falls flat on its face because it expected problems. Also the missions seem a little bit repetitive and the last boss was too easy to face. The controls can be very frustrating at probably the most crucial time of the games and trust me they do take a little getting used and time to understand. It never truly seems to keep in check with the spirit of the movie and it just seems in some way it was a ploy to make more money out of us. However Ironman suffers from the same faults as most games from this genre do. Robert Downey Jr lends his voice with other cast members and the missions are steady and keep you occupied as things roll along. I managed to get my hands on a copy (and it was cheap) of Iron man, I was glad to say that the game was certainly entertaining and you probably will not grow tired of doing a few things which are classy like just flying through the air and smashing things up. Unfortunately that never really ends up being the case as the one feels that the game is just some sort of clever ploy put together to just milk more money out of people. They seem rushed, carelessly put together and I have often got the feeling that people only purchased it because they really enjoyed the movie and wanted to stay in spirit of the movie.

Most movie-to-game adaptations suck, and I mean big time.
